I'd definitely say ~8% of a population having this condition is concerning yes.

I shudder to think how today's trump would have responded to 911

bold of you to assume america will exist in 20yrs.

a VPN does not prevent the fingerprinting google does.

IDK he might be, he certainly is a dick. but also you don't usually get to read the whole script (definitely not the final script) before choosing to accept a role, they may only get a scene, maybe just an elevator pitch etc.

I flew to Germany a month after all the big tarriffs started going down and the airport were full of ads for canadian tourism. Very interesting

In my experience living in a small urban center has way less annoying neighbour interactions than in suburbia where people have the illusion of isolation. Kids play basketball at the designated basketball courts by the community center, a neighbour burning trash woukd have the fire department 5min away come over asap (although wood based fires are allowed and fine). Most people party at the bars. No hoas, no tiny tyrants, way less street racing at 3am, less car traffic in general.

I really hope that it either automatically populates the field or is a one and done type of thing or else people won't use it.

Also this articles product placement was really weird and jarring to me. 3rd paragraph is basically just an ad read.

And then theres me who can't understand the words of a song no matter the language.

I am not a doctor, I just find steel interesting. I also prefer leaf to hash. but I think it's going to take more than 1000C to create the fumes osha is mainly concerned about, which would make the steel yellow with heat, Even for welders it's the sort of thing that should concern only people who do it professionally. That said you are kinda directly huffing whatever is coming off it (hypothetically of course). If it's getting red hot, then it might still be having some oxidation, but it probably isn't getting into your lungs and it probably is going to stay put in the metal, Probably....

If it's not glowing at all you are definitely good.

Chromium is only dangerous (in reasonable quantities) when its Hexavalent (meaning it has 6 missing electrons). Trivalent chromium (3 missing electrons) is actually essential in trace amounts. Stainless steel has trivalent chromium. Exposure to high temperatures (welding, plasma cutting, maybe grinding) can oxidize it from trivalent to hexavalent but your kitchen utensils aren't going to be exposed to that. I'm not an expert though to be clear.

The term "ratio'd" originated from twitter at a time when it had neither upvotes or downvotes (it refered to retweets vs comments). Fundamentally any platform that has more content than can be reasonably consumed by one person must have a way of filtering good and bad posts and as soon as you have that you have people who will chase both the good signal and the bad. You get rid of the upvotes and you encourage people comment farming, you see this on some platforms like tiktok where people will intentionally add in minor errors so that a lot of people comment corrections boosting their engagement or in traditional forums where every other comment is "bump". Personally I think upvotes are the least bad thing to have people fixate on as it has the least number of side effects.

I do agree that upvote begging like this post is parodying is bad though and should be discouraged.
