It would be a problem if he was brought on to talk about COVID being a hoax. It's not really a problem if he's talking about something entirely different and not problematic

Just from reading the title I was expecting a seasonal pumpkin spice WD40 joke

But this is also acceptable

It's not really fine if you like roaming around, though. There isn't much of an open world, just many many small worlds with hand-placed POIs on some of them and procedurally generated stuff on the rest

I'm having a good time with the game but it definitely doesn't scratch the same itch

Probably not. Just make a new account and fly under the radar for a while. If you keep getting banned on different accounts they will IP ban you.

Technically it's against the rules to make a new account to avoid a ban, but like I said, they probably won't look into it unless you give them a reason to

The middle man is great if you want to ensure no action is ever taken

Sounds like a disingenuous argument.

If you're a content creator and you can leave, you should. If you can't, well obviously you shouldn't yet.

Wearing traditional black clothes is not necessarily racist. Wearing blackface has a long history of being directly racist.

There isn't an equivalent with wearing Nazi clothes.

Removing an episode for being racist (even though this one wasn't racist) is not cultural genocide. Wearing blackface (I know, this wasn't blackface) is not a culture that needs to be preserved.

Many publications on arxiv (or biorxiv or medrxiv, etc) are early drafts, or otherwise not scientifically rigorous and wouldn't be published in an actual journal due to failing peer review. Take what you find there with a grain of salt.

Although you should also take any single peer-reviewed article with a grain of salt as well.

Specifically, the corresponding author (which should have their email listed in the publication)

Keep in mind you may get an "uncorrected proof" or "author copy" since many authors don't want to run afoul of their publisher's guidelines on giving out copies

np

It's subtle, but yes it tastes "almost" sweet despite there being no sugar.

Do you drink sugary drinks or eat sugary foods on a regular basis? There is some research showing that excess sugar intake can drastically reduce your body's ability to sense sweetness.

Not sure if this is a joke, but yeah. For me, it's got a bit of acid (from the carbonic acid byproduct of carbonation) and a subtle sweetness. Plus whatever flavoring they add

This is normal. It's also why, if you drink lots of sugary drinks, things like unsweetened tea or sparkling water (without sugar) become flavorless until you cut out the sugary drinks for a few weeks. Only after that will you begin to taste the natural flavors.

Not to mention all of the other chemicals!

Literally every ingredient! Chemicals!

Definitely better than this outdated version. Nobody uses Python2 unless they want to at this point

I think the problem is that a lot of shows become overhyped once they reach a certain level of popularity. While you may have enjoyed it if you came across it naturally, the hype you've encountered around it makes you expect more. Avatar and Parks and Rec are great shows, but they're definitely not the best shows of all time (although I do really love Parks and Rec) and you'd probably expect them to be these amazing shows if all you know about them is the hype from superfans.

No we haven't.

We don't prove negatives in science, or in medicine. We just know that in the studies we have performed, we have not noticed any meaningful effects and we can conclude there is likely no observable benefit to taking the drug for that purpose.

"What happened?"

"I don't talk about it.... anymore...."
