I mean this is a super unfair characterization of both of them. While Arthur conan doyle may have believed in the supernatural, he was also a practising doctor. And according to the article, Koch, who had many other accomplishments as well, didn't present his discovery as a cure at all, and was quick to retract his statement when it didn't show much therapeutic value. It seems like this was more about the hype over his treatment getting blown out of proportion.

Oh yeah idk, thats the problem with those estimates is people don't usually buy everything at full price, they rent or wait for sales or subscribe to a streaming service or gamepass, so even if you assume pepple would have bought everything they pirate, how do you assign a value to it. Like i wasn't even thinking about movie tickets, i was thinking like 20 or 30 bucks for a bluray. Idk how much they are because i haven't bought any in ages though lol.

Also 90% of the people who work on movies don't usually get royalties. They've already been paid for their work, who cares if the production company CEO gets a few extta bucks?

Hi FBI. I will just say 5000 seems crazy low though, especially if you're assuming a movie is $20-$30 and a game is like $10-$80. Dunno how you'd calculate tv shows but dvd/bluray seasons/box sets can get real expensive fast.

Ive also been playing with that mod and its awesome, really made the game feel so much smoother and more fluid. Ive been using the balanced mode though since the higher performance ones seemed to make everything look really foggy. FSR seems to work and look way better on the deck too. The only thing I've found so far about the gameplay that im not really fond of is that if you dont cycle out your reserve party they level so much slower and end up underleveled, so you have to keep switching uo your main party to make sure everyone is balanced. Also the platforming on the gestral beach is a fucking joke and i honestly think they might have put it in just as a tongue in cheek reference to how shit the game engine is.

I was on 1.0.269 and didn't have any option to update, however someone else reccomended joining the beta and that worked, I'm on .275 now

Yeah thats the problem then, i am on 1.0.269 but i also joined the beta and don't have any option to update.

Thats weird, which android version are you on? Im on a samsung s20 android 13 oneui 5.1. Does the back button bring you to the previous screen as well? I didnt change any user settings prior to this happening, it happened with an update of the app a few weeks ago.

Also this is only on the inbox, the back swipe works for everything else.

Junkies also say "i need this for work". In fact i bet thats a major contributing factor in a lot of addictions - not having 2-7 days free where you can detox and be a sweaty emotional disgusting mess.

Connect (an amazing Canadian lemmy app) automatically shows all the communities a post has been crossposted to above the comments, and shows comment numbers for each of the cross posts. Its made my experience so much better. Theres a ton of other benefits to the app too, and the dev is super quick to respond to any issues. Can't recommend it enough.

Yeah this one so much. I think its still amazing and the two seasons can each kinda stand on their own, and still have satisfying endings, but just knowing that they had an entire 5 season arc planned out drives me crazy considering how great that show was.

I wonder if there's anything else you could 3d print that would help fight against corporate greed?

Seeing the aphex twin visuals with the disturbed music really threw me off until i realized someone had just mashed them up.

This comment is unbelievably stupid. People don't only drive their trucks for things that they would otherwise have to rent a car for. I guarantee for a huge percentage of truck owners 95%+ of their usage could easily be replaced by an ebike. You dont need a 3 ton pickup to drive to the corner store to pick up smokes, or to get to work.

I have a DARE shirt that says 'Drugs Are Really Expensive' underneath and i feel like thats a more effective deterrent than anything they said in the program.

I had a 2006 escape with a v6 that felt amazing to drive. That thing accelerated like a beast. Anytime someone with a flashy sports car would pull up beside me at a red light and be revving their engine id floor it as soon as the light changed and leap ahead of them, until i hit 60 and then id level off and let them pull ahead. Such a satisfying feeling watching these wxpensive new cars drop behind though. Of course thats probably all due to their drivers, i dont acrual have any illusions that it was the faster car in most cases, but it did have very unexpected power and a nice amount of cargo space. I really miss that car. Shame they seem to have gone downhill.

Iirc what.cd was freeleech for the first week, so i did go nuts. Downloaded anything that seemed popular that didn't have a huge amount of seeders, and then after the freeleech period ended i downloaded basically every freeleech torrent i could find whether i wanted it or not, just for the seeding. This let me keep quite a good ratio despite having a terrible upload speed at the time. Alot of sites will also give bonus seeder points for uploading new torrents i think, especially if they have a request or bounty system.

Adobe did that a long time ago.

Why would yhere always need to be hunger? Its been proven over and over that this is a solvable problem and we have more than enough resources to solve it. They even put a monetary amount on it and it could easily be solved by a single billionaire. And then we know that once people arent starving or desperate for shelter and constantly concerned about their basic needs and survival, crime goes way down. And why does there need to be war? Because the oil companies or mercenaries and military industrial complex demands it? Let them die and we could easily have a much better society that takes care of all peoples basic needs. Its really not that complicated.
