  • Years ago Apple rejected the app for the Mac App Store because apparently it's "not useful"

    Apple employees never clean their keyboards confirmed

  • Rip and Tear until it is done lol

  • I would get that rabies shot at least. It's incurable when symptoms start, an absolute miserable way to go, you might not even notice that you got a bat bite while sleeping, and it's prevalent in wildlife you can't control - and prevalent in nearly all countries except most western european states (and even there sometimes cases pop up).

  • Hepatitis gets transmitted through the open wound every newborn has - the umbilical cord. Yes, that's the same wound that causes Tetanus in newborns, commonly about 7 days after birth, and it is still one of the common causes for neonatal death. But infants are still protected by the Mother against Tetanus, if she's vaccinated (And no, previous infection does not count. You don't die from the bacteria, you die from their toxins - same situation as with botulinum toxin)

    Noone vaccinates a newborn against Tetanus; there are other ways of treatment, but they are no fun and include a long stay in intensive care, feeding a high calorie diet per IV (tube feeding is not possible), and a permanent diazepam iv drip to keep the muscle spasms - that can break bones - under control.

    You know whats fine regarding salts? They dissolve when not in ubiquitous amounts (go read up on your chemistry, man). Now you just have Aluminium! This Aluminium loves to get oxygen to become inert, which it gets. Those limits are made to keep workplace environments safe and lifetime exposure low (and more a political thing than a medical).

    I just looked it up, the CDC recommends 11 vaccinations in the first 2 years of life. That's 14 diseases that cannot kill my child (and most are things that primarily kill children, that's the reason they get them so early. Makes sense, doesn't it?). Even if there were a tradeoff more that being a bit under the weather for a few days, it would be quite worth it.

    And there is ZERO evidence for that! ZERO! Vaccinations are a thing for quite a while now, and there is still nothing there except the brainless drivel you were probably fed by "Mom Groups" on Facebook, which you mean by "studying information" and which cooked your brain and that of thousand others.

    But rest assured, with Mr. Brainworm at the steering wheel in the US we will see how the child death rate will start climbing and let the glorious states look even more like a third world country regarding childhood death by preventable causes. The only sad thing here is that the price will be paid by children.

  • You know what the first thing is a medic asks you when you come in with an open wound? He asks you when you had your last tetanus shot. If you even blink before answering that question, you have that vaccine needle in you faster than you can say "autism".

    Tetanus is deadly as hell, and even if not deadly can cause massive tissue damage. Disinfecting the wound won't help you when the wound is deep, you can't clean that shit more than removing debris (btw, disinfection of open wounds isn't done in many cases, because the disinfectant damages the healthy cells that are busy healing the wound, causing longer healing times and bigger scars)

    Speaking of aluminium: Do you know how little the amounts you are speaking of are? A µg is a 1/1000th part of a mg. We are not talking about fucking Sarin here, it's aluminium which the human race gets exposed to in shittons. The first thing Aluminium as soon as it gets a chance is forming an oxide layer, making it about as reactive as my dick to a picture of Margret Thatcher naked on a cold day. The probability of aluminium in vaccines causing health effects, when taking the dosage in consideration, is negligible.

    I would not consider you an expert in the field of infectious diseases, please inform yourself the next time before you speak up on this particular topic.

  • came here to say exactly this - i like my showers steamy hot while hers are more lukewarm and make me shiver - well, for a shower together i will endure it, because i won't be able to get that while burning her skin.

  • In your opinion, what is the best way as an outsider to support and help people to get out of the church's grip?

  • "...do you know how hard it is to press 2 keys at once using your feet? even the punctuation is a huge ask! i know for sure that i ordered a cat keyboard, and i have to tell you, every time the get the order wrong and deliver the crap the staff uses..."

  • Let's just say that every pregnancy thats not over 12 weeks gestation is not for sure, regardless of age of the parents, because any chromosomal damage that might exist normally doesn't make it over that limit (except trisomy 21 aka down syndrome, irregularities with the sex chromosomes and a few other outliers) - that's the reason that you normally don't announce it before those 12 weeks.

    You are still pretty insensitive.

  • Publicly traded companies are detrimental to the health of the (gaming) ecosystem. A Titanfall game would have been a financial and cultural net positive for sure - maximizing for profit means losing out on everything else.

  • I'm like you regarding my windows and what goes where, and KDE Plasma is a godsend. You can define window behavior like which window goes on which virtual desktop, what monitor and whatever size; which should stay on top and which below or can remove title bars and set transparency. after defining the window rules just put everything you need into autostart. reboot and see the magic happen ;-)

  • The US has more than enough land to resettle their own population, the population density of most US states can take that easily.

  • as a GUI pleb i just doubleclick the file, which opens kate.

    i edit the file and click save, get asked for my password

    and all is fine.

  • Alexander Avdeyev also threatened journalists and residents with fines if they shared unofficial information about the blast.

    ah yes, i always threaten journalists when there's nothing to report

  • well, at that point the numbers lose their meaning.

  • How many hit points had the Pope, an high level archpriest? he was sick, so he definitely wasn't at max hp, but he fumbled that roll hard.

  • that was literally me yesterday when i had to backup my wifes windows pc. maybe i can get her to switch on her old pc when support runs out...

  • I dearly miss Playnite on Linux. Having Games from a lot of different sources, only Lutris supports more than Steam/Epic/GoG, and it's missing a lot of features from Playnite and it's plugins. Managing my Gamelibrary without it sucks.

  • i am befuddled - just a few moments ago i took a glance at the image preview and thought i saw a chocolate cookie, and was very freaked out that it was a spider body when i took a closer look.

    hmm maybe a good time to finally go to sleep (damn nightmares, they make me fear the nighttime)
