Depends where in the world you are. Some places have had the foresight to regulate the loudness, priximity to housing and the time window where you are allowed to make noise. Other places in the world have different temples competing on which one can afford the loudest megaphone, placing them right outside some poor peoples appartments, knowing they are immune to criticism.

Islam: 5 times per day. ~3 min each.

Church bell frequenzy vary more per local tradition.

You have two alarm clocks in your room. one rings every monday morning. The other every 5 minutes. They are different and will affect you differently. One will make you stressed and the other will drive you insane. Frequenzy tend to matter for noise makers.

Awesome! I too have been jealous of those bastards for a long time.

I got the question “what foods did you try?” I could not name a single food. I ate different foods and I didn’t remember the names. I’m usually bad when interrogated about what i have done.

I assume they are referencing the US practice of washimg chicked carcases in chlorine.

The EU claims that allowing that type of washing makes producers less incetiviced to avoid bacterial contamination elsewhere in the production chain and therefore more likely to expose customer to disease. US companies treat the animals like shit, and treat the meat like shit and then argue that washing the carcases in chlorine solves it and makes it a more competetive product that they really want to sell on the EU market.

The US market only ever optimise for cost. So they get shitty products. Since they have lots of monopoly going on, they get shitty and expensive combo. Other markets try to make ‘good products’ competetive and regulate markets, so the products available will be good and reasonably priced.

Allowing sub standard US products on the market will make for more expensive and more dangerous products.

At this rate, in a hundred years there will be nothing alive left on the planet. The numbers of humans we have now are clearly unsustainable.

This would strengten the principles the EU is built on. You either trade or you do war. Not both.

Are explosive usb ports allowed? Or maybe high voltage, welding their equipment in place.

It’s never about porn or children. It’s about control, money and a fear of ones own citizenry.

Let’s not do that.

I both fear and can’t wait for the ai pop. Please come sooner rather than later.

Cut away a generous part around a mould spot, inspect crossection. Looks good? Smells good? Then it’s edible. Mould is everywhere all the time. If you can see it or smell it, don’t eat.

If you are worried about the mould and microorganisms you can’t see, then you will have to eat everything right out of the oven, made with freshly ground flour.

Whoever made that decision deserves a punch in the face and should be demoted from adulthood, back to school.

This has happened a few times in my life. Feels kinda like when you use a muscle wrong and it starts cramping, just that in this case I somehow swallowed wrong. At least it doesn’t last for very long. Once my leg started cramping while I was half-asleep. Fuck that hurt for what felt like 5 minutes.

Well, you can’t see or eat the AI the Americans are spending all their money on.

You can experience it from home. It’s underwhelming.

It’s all relative. Best match for their user analytics. So they get good numbers to show user engagement in their board meetings.

Accidental clicks are engineered to juice those numbers too.

They don’t know what is going on. They watch propaganda channel fox and their local pastor tells them to vote trump.

Fair enough

As long as they are not full of oil, which would cause ecological damage, Ukraine is doing us all a service in ‘retiring’ these boats. These shadow vessels are catastrophies waiting to happen, as they are below standard, non insured, poorly maintained, and falling apart while transporting crude oil and chemicals. They also turn off their transponders, increasing likelyhood of collisions.

When they spill their oil in your countrys waterways, you will have to pay to clean it up. It’s not cheap. To Putin that is an externalized cost for his invasions of neighboring countries.

The only way they stop is if it’s not economically sound. That happens when the ships start sinking. It’s cheaper to sink all the ships than it is to clean up an oil spill.

Help nature, help your wallet, help Ukraine, sink a shadow tanker.

If USA is ever fixed, I hope they remove many of the presidents powers. He should have no say in pardons or handling of prisoners in any way.
