In addition to things like their competitive LMDh cars, they also have their V-Series performance road cars. The CT5-V Blackwing is the most well known.

I'm not sure if he realizes how stupid that makes him sound

It's really just games with kernel level anticheat that are a problem.

I'm not really worried about a Mpox pandemic as it only spreads by touch as far as we know. My concern is bird flu. We're starting to see more cases of it infecting humans and if it turns into a pandemic is will likely be extremely deadly.

Interest rates. Then again, you can go for other more reputable brands that have good interest rates. I was making around 5% with Vanguard cash plus for some time. It's based on money market though, so as federal interest rates went down, so did the rates for that account. There are smaller companies with slightly better rates, but IMO Vanguard is way more trustworthy than all these new Fintech startups and I know the FDIC insurance is legit.

Are you sure that's not your fence?

The lead adds sweetness though

Your timeline is incorrect. 15 years ago was 2009, when CFLs were most common. A 60W equivalent CFL was 13W and 100W equivalent was 23W. My house was still mostly incandescent bulbs with some CFLs for bulbs that had died and weren't on a dimmer. Commercial LED bulbs intended for residential use only started being released in 2009-2010 with incentive from the US government.

That illustration is more than just a strain lol

That phrase first came out when incandescent bulbs were the most common, so they consumed like 60W vs 7W for an equivalent LED bulb. The brain is somewhere around 20W.

A study in Canada was published in 2019 looking at the differences between 2 neighboring cities where on stopped fluoridating water in 2011. They saw that saw a significant increase in cavities in children in the city that stopped fluoridating vs the other. This is despite the fact the the city without fluoridation actually has somewhat higher adherence to brushing, flossing, and going to the dentist. No difference was seen yet in permanent teeth, but that's because the study would need more time to see effects there.

Of course, we still should do more studies on fluoride neurotoxicity. Most studies look at levels of fluoride at 1.5mg/L or higher, which is more than double the recommended level by the US (0.7 mg/L). There is a hard limit in the US of 4mg/L, but the EPA strongly recommends a limit of 2mg/L. This only really matters for locations with very high levels of fluoride in the groundwater, and is thus quite rare. The EU's limit is 1.5mg/L.

Fluoride in the water is beneficial in the pre-eruptive phase (when teeth are still growing). Fluoride ingestion increases tooth resistence to cavities if the ingestion happened while they were growing.

This does mean that fluoride in water isn't really useful after you have all your permanent teeth though.

The Williams Formula 1 team managed everything in Exce until this year. The new team principal was stunned at how outdated their systems were and moved everything to more modern systems. The transition caused some major problems with inventory near the beginning of the season though. They didn't have enough replacement parts for a single crash. Hopefully they can make better progress now with the newer systems.

The girl looks uncomfortable being next to it too

Why not?

Sched-Ext finally in mainline!

The ethics pledge was introduced by Republicans and signed into law by Trump himself in March 2020. Rules for thee but not for me...

Well, the Russian trolls aren't needed anymore now that Trump won.

Most popular chili recipes have cocoa powder as an ingredient now. Adds a nice bit of earthiness to the chili.

Do those exist? And what about all the internal components?
