A lot? Trichinosis has almost been eliminated in pork. An old study looking for a particular parasite found little to none depending on the product. Here is another study showing very low incidence of parasites in meat products, but also includes fresh produce in the study which had higher rates than some meats.

So I disagree that “A lot” is correct.

I think you’re right. I messed up. I read it as the rights of the LGBTQ were enforced by restricting others.

1944 was how long ago? That’s how long it took for a jewish person to sound just like a rabid Nazi.

In Boeing’s case that’s probably the reality of the last couple decades. The beancounters have gotten in the way of Safety.

There were several missteps by vaccine proponents that undermined their case. There was also a lot of hyperbole from vaccine hesitant people that made them look hysterical.

Really. What missteps were made? The hysteria from hesitant anti-vaxxers and political fear mongerers were real, I would call “hesitant” people the ones who realize vaccines are a likely necessity but didn’t understand how the COVID vaccines worked and were probably influenced by lies from the ant-vax crowd.

What middle ground could possibly be made here regarding “truth”? Vaccine risks are known and fairly well established. The risks of early COVID strains were known. The only people straddling a fence in the middle are those who lack the knowledge of the risks or have objectively real medical problem with vaccines, not some made-up junk about mercury or something.

Vaccines are neither a 100% safe panacea, nor are they injectable death.

OMG this is binary JAQing off. Nobody suggests either of these and it’s ridiculous to even posit this phrase.

Like a greentext…just made up BS. Really, the “cowboy” was the only one dressed appropriately for weather?

And the leather soles get mushy…and the salt used to melt the ice absolutely shreds the leather just above the stitching when it dries out. Western boots suck in the snow, and it’s a quick way to ruin them. Even rubber-soled ones like some of Ariat’s don’t last, but they’re better on wet surfaces.

Frittering my life away, latibulating on my corner computer, earning skins, frippery, for my gaming character, while wearing my haku…a gaming headset.

Go ahead and buy. Shares generally tank pretty quick after IPO for companies that don’t actually make anything, the dot bust ensured that. Only time will tell if Reddit shares improve or flounder around not going anywhere. An additional thought - Reddit would do well to do things like get rid of old.reddit, go after ad blockers, and maybe implement a “verified” fee program like Xwitter to boost their stock potential. And also ensure I’ll never return.

But according to Putin Russia is an awesome place. How could they need assistance with military hardware from Iran?

I’m 100% for mandatory safe storage laws and prosecution of those who fail to do so, especially if that failure leads to injury, death, of theft of said firearm and that gun is used in a crime.

Unsecured handguns account for the majority of firearm suicide deaths in the United States, study finds

Overall, firearms used in unintentional injury deaths were often stored loaded (74%) and unlocked (76%) and were most commonly accessed from nightstands and other sleeping areas (30%).

It is difficult to ascertain the exact number of guns that are stolen from individuals in the United States because many of these thefts are not reported to law enforcement. However, estimates from a number of survey studies indicate that roughly 200,000 to 400,000 guns are stolen from individuals each year…Whether taken from gun stores or from individual gun owners, a firearm is stolen every 2 minutes. These stolen guns are often diverted directly into illegal trafficking networks and end up being used in the commission of violent crimes.

The Largest Source of Stolen Guns? Parked Cars.

All stolen guns are available to criminals by definition. Recent studies of adult and juvenile offenders show that many have either stolen a firearm or kept, sold, or traded a stolen firearm: According to the 1991 Survey of State Prison Inmates, among those inmates who possessed a handgun, 9% had acquired it through theft, and 28% had acquired it through an illegal market such as a drug dealer or fence. Of all inmates, 10% had stolen at least one gun, and 11% had sold or traded stolen guns.

The Southern [of the USA] region has the highest percentage of house-holds with firearms and the least safe storage practices (Okoro et al. 2005). Not surprisingly, most Southern states are “exporters” of guns traced in crime (Mayors Against Illegal Guns 2010).

So the assholes that need to have guns with them, constantly available, unsecured, because the “might need to access them instantly” or some such nonsense are the very people feeding guns into criminals hands and causing death and injury via accidental shootings and suicides.

Soon as he dies in an arctic circle prison I’ll agree with him.

Running wires is expensive. That’s why most people opt for wireless, and on top of that, the convenience systems like Ring offer with their app, no NVR/DVR, none of the typical security system hardware cluttering things up.

Look like little Jim Henson monsters.

I asked Midjourney to draw itself. Somewhat similar of a look, though Midjourney seems to think itself a bit godlike. Edit: difficulty uploading from mobile. https://imgur.com/gallery/TETnZqg

Lengthy non-scientific video covering the detection of colliding black holes in 2016. Also, buy their merch.

Not worried about being dead, really. I didn’t exist for millennia, I got my time in the sun, I won’t exist for the rest of time. It hasn’t bothered me.

Dying on the other hand sounds like a painful, grief-ridden, stress filled misery. I really don’t want to have anything to do with a drawn-out death. That’s what bothers me.

More fees.
