What is the motivation for this LLM generated text? Why create the account in the first place?

Last view of life: slowly bleeding out in the back of a waymo that has gotten trapped in the traffic circle in front of the ER and won't unlock its doors until it reached its destination.

So the hack is to stab the knot? I'm gonna need a video on how to open a drawer to retrieve the fork first....

Real knot untying hack - hit it with a hammer, or otherwise smash it. It will undo itself enough that you can then do whatever is most obvious, like using a thin piece of metal.

I went to a southeast asian country and got a staph infection. I walked down to the pharmacy, asked the pharmastst for a topical and an oral antibiotic. 3 days later i was healed, continued the course the rest of the week and that was it. $12 dollars american.

I got another staph infection previously in the united states. Needed to go to a doc in the box who misdiagnosed it. A few days went by and i needed to go to another doc in the box who gave me topical and trued to give me a steroid shot. Needless to say it progressed and turned into fullblown MRSA which required admitance and a IV antibiotic. Extremely painful. I don't have the ability to add the costs but north of $10k easily.

That's why drugs should be legalized.

I genuinely struggle to comprehend the stance behind your comment. There are essentially no other official seats that are _not beholden to anti-bribery laws and standards.

This is like saying Pete Rose was innocent because he never threw any game he gambled on, or Trump can take gifts from Qatar because they never influenced him in any way.

I genuinely think this argument is made with dishonest motives. Truly astounding if it is not.

> Judicial review is not granted in the constitution.

Pretty fascinating. I didn't know this.

Please don't forget the gifts and donations the judges receive because "Until recently, the judiciary’s ethics guidance didn’t explicitly address the ownership issue."

It's difficult to find anything except wildly biased news sources. After reading the article I know I should be upset about what the supreme court has done, and I should be fearful about what could possibly happen tomorrow because of it.

But I don't have a very clear picture about what actually happened.

How could one possibly build their own opinion one way or another from this piece?

Within reason - Yes.

There are 8 billion people on the planet you can tolerate some different world views and decide your own.

This obviously has an acceptable floor of being a safe place for kids to be. Islam, Hinduism, Taoist, any of the world religions, sure. Satanism? We can probably agree that "do as thou wilst" is not an acceptable form of guidance for a 15 year old who will not completely form their brains for another decade. The Unification Church, probably not. Generally accepted as a cult. Latter Day Saints? Sure, the kids could go hang out there.

Well I've gotten one of those "holy fuck this is the future" deeply unsettled anxious feelings in my gut again. It's been a week or 2, it was time.

I think you have very strong negative opinions about religion without any strong negative experiences. I think that is fair and valid but also worth mentioning.

You were uncomfortable but not forced into traumatic situations. You probably absorbed some sense of morality in line with christian values as well. I imagine you did not sense a threat of someone walking up and offering you adderall or cigarettes. If one of my teens told me that same story I'd be a-ok with it.

My view is if there is no guiding principal the culture will devolve into base behaviors. Especially teenagers without a good capacity for future planning. And that religion is how humans get that job done, warts and all.

I think you misunderstand, the 3rd space should be at a church. One in my community does this for teens where they just hang out and do homework after school for 2 hours.

This is what religion is for, and what you refer to as THE ECONOMY is simply the hard wired human precondition stand in when you decide there is no God(s).

"The Market" (God) would never have built such a place! The market (God) punishes any behavior that is outside its predilections! We must sacrifice to appease the The Market in order to gain its favor!

Back to the 3rd space for teens. What is the first issue you think of when teens gather in that 3rd space? Behavior, what are they doing, how will it influence them and eachother. This is where the religious moral code and moral guidance comes in. At a church (or w/e) there will be someone there who would at least monitor them. And sure its beset with issues but so is everything at some level.

> Similarly, the atmospheric CO2 can be a source of carbon, especially say on Mars.

How would this work?

1. End step-up cost basis at death 2. Tax or end lending against portfolios

Seems like a solved problem to me.

I stand corrected, S&P did not shorten its rules to allow SpaceX after all. I was under the impression the Google compute deal made it so it could.

Nice!

They relaxed the rules for SpaceX already, it's in almost immediately the IPO

They'll both be in the S&P, and combined would represent roughly 5%
