Pretty sure you already can't block him specifically, I'm not on Xitter but have heard from several people this is the case.

IIRC water happens to appear similarly to a lot of explosives on the metric they use for what the composition of items in the scanner is.

Improvements are being made though so soon we may be allowed to take water through unrestricted:

Having been, he 100% brought that in. The food in all the venues has been terrible without exception, however this is still a great idea

I think it is generally because of our deeply capitalist society and upbringing that we are told to believe people are greedy and selfish, therefore we must be greedy and selfish ourselves in order to not get taken advantage of, or replaced.

Surely this can be solved by randomizing the order they appear on the ballot for each person? Then the impact would be negligable

Not lack of investment, lack of expenditure in favour of payouts to shareholders instead.

Gotta come to bat for my boy Matt Smith, imo his first episode is the best of any in the modern era

Surely at the server side it knows the premium status of the user it is supplying the video to, so just wouldn't insert the ads? I don't see why that would need to be client side.

Overall I enjoyed this one, felt like a return to a classic monster-of-the-week format, with a decent setup and good intrige, although the reason that the monster was created being 'the computer thinks babies needs monsters' fell a little flat for me.

The commentary on abortion and refugees was a tad shoehorned also, but not a deal breaker for me.

Really liking Ncuti's take on the Doctor and his chemistry with Millie Gibson, and definitely excited to see where the overarching story line for the season goes.

Your principles are sound, but not voting in any election is imo equivalent to voting for whoever wins. If that turns out to be Trump your moral high ground has no basis because you actively enabled that result.

Voting for a candidate doesn't have to mean endorsing their entire being, it can be for many reasons, most noteably tactical voting to ensure the least bad outcome.

Unfortunately he's burning the governments money too so I wouldn't be too excited about his constant lawmongering.

I think often cases are won or settled based on who has the most money to keep them going.

From wiki:

On November 12, 2020,[20] for his 31st birthday, Varshavski traveled to Miami to attend a beach party that was also attended by a number of other people without masks, during the COVID-19 pandemic. Footage of the event was posted on Instagram and went viral, particularly on Reddit.[21] On November 18, Varshavski apologized for his actions in a YouTube video,[22] saying he "messed up" and he needed "to do better".[23] His attendance of the party was criticized by medical professionals. Bioethicist Arthur Caplan, director of the division of medical ethics at NYU Langone Health, said Varshavski "fails completely in being an appropriate role model and he should be called out, and he deserves even more criticism than he's getting so far."[23]
