Agree with this but for full disclosure I am vegan. I think though there is at least some beef industry money behind the “anti seed money, carnivore diet, eat raw meat until your body expels cholesterol”

Pasteurization curves work at 120f for most things but most people would prefer a higher temperature because they want the protein denaturing and collagen breakdown that occurs at higher temps (resulting in a slightly firmer texture)

This is how pasteurization works fyi. You shouldn’t do it in your home oven because air is a terrible insulator and your home oven likely sucks at maintaining temperature but if you can maintain temperature relatively precisely (not terribly, like within a swing of half a degree) and can use a medium that is not a terrible insulator (like a water bath) the problem is solved

Thus things like pasteurized milk, eggs, and sous vide.

Louis pasteur essentially found that you can just cook things to a super high temperature to kill bacteria but alternatively you can bring them to a much lower temperature and hold them at said temperature for a specific period of time and this will result in a reduction of bacteria to safe levels. This is highly preferable because it preserves flavor and texture. He was a super genius and you should read a book

It’s possible to cook turkey at 120f but only if you know what you’re doing, like if you’re using an immersion circulator. 130 makes more sense for breast though and 150 for leg/thigh

Seed oils are fine, these people are dumb

Why would they be against thiel? He was an early investor back in 2014 when Altman got involved

DVDs?? is this article from 2006?

Actually the most common way is through aerosolized particles, meaning there is a ton of rat shit and piss somewhere in your living space (like an attic or crawlspace) and it gets into your air supply. Far less commonly but still possibly it can be through direct exposure to feces and urine, or even more rarely through a scratch/bite

Despite this it’s astoundingly rare. 20-50 cases annually for the entirety of the USA and less than 1000 from 1993-2022

Already happened to world iirc

And based on the behavior of other shitty applications and devices what if an update silently changes one of those settings back to a problematic state? If they aren’t there to begin with I don’t have to worry as much

To be fair Mozilla doesn’t have precedent for this behavior but they also didn’t have precedent for this whole nonsense that started this drama a month ago. Things change

100% this. Musk has dominated the news for the first month of his presidency, i bet he’s fucking furious

Oh I forgot that. We never got that here but I remember reading about it. Truly terrible

Plus who would possibly see a cyber truck and be like “oh okay it’s not a tesla phew”. that’s gotta be the most distinct car since like the Pontiac Aztec or the pt cruiser (both of which were also ugly pieces of shit)

I think it was the illness. Even without the illness based on the first games ending and the fact that Arthur was not mentioned or existed within it I was pretty sure I knew how rdr2 was going to end before I started but the illness gave it such a somber tone. Arthur recognized his mortality and really started to reflect.

It’s been ages since I played rdr1 but as far as I remember John was more “I’m doing this to be done, for my family!”. The tone was much lighter as a result even though there were moments that were heavy. And the characters weren’t as developed so I didn’t care as much. Dutch was just a fucking monster in that game, bill and Javier were just props. But rdr2 fleshed them all out so much

I mean it is an era where up and moving 100 miles basically meant you started your life over. But that was kind of the plot: they were a gang of that era where they could run in a town, wreak havoc, disappear, and the infrastructure didn’t yet exist to reliably track them across the gigantic land mass that is North america.

But by the time the game rolls around the beginnings of the modern federal government are happening and agencies to track people like them across the country are in full swing. So all of a sudden their way of life is coming to a close, quickly. Instead of just some pissing off a sheriff in a town and never being able to go back there, occasionally having a bounty hunter after you, you now have a huge team of people with the resources of a government coming for you.

I think part of it that’s understated is the size of the map. The map is obviously big for a game but it’s supposed to be a huge chunk of America. When you compare the geography of the map to America it’s somewhat clear that it’s supposed to be a gigantic swath of America, from like Montana down to Louisiana and across to Texas. You can ride across the map in 20 min but obviously this would take months irl. Obviously this is about gameplay balance but as a result you lose the sense that Arthur is going extremely far away when he’s going from valentine to st denis, when in reality that would be like a month of riding and crossing several states. Even if he did a genocide that would probably shake the heat for a little while back then

They did obviously play it up of course. If you literally murdered everyone in a town back then there would probably be more of a response from the surrounding towns to find you. But gamers like violence and it’s again about balancing gameplay vs authenticity. usually gameplay wins because otherwise you end up with a boring game

I remember so many people being furious at rockstar for not releasing dlc on the scope of gta4 but honestly with this game I don’t know what form that narrative would take that could be satisfying.

The main narrative is concluded decisively obviously. It’s a prequel so continuing with John would just be rdr1. Another undead nightmare is eh, zombies are so played out. I guess you could fill in what went on with Dutch or some of the others that show up in rdr1 but frankly I don’t really want to play as them. I suppose you could intro some new character that’s part of their new gang. I dunno. I get why they didn’t prioritize it (well that and more so that dlc costs a ton to develop for a pitiful return relative to something like gta online, which is kind of sad)

I’m unfamiliar but some brief searching shows they use kigen for sim handling and mediatek for processor/modem so it appears they also have little to no American parts, though I’m not sure of this

This is not surprising at all, this is exactly what he did in the aftermath of Samoa. Instead of taking any accountability or reflecting on his actions for murdering 80+ children he blamed the populace for being malnourished and accepting vaccines (that’s why they died, of course) and then peddled this exact rhetoric word for word

This is a very good option

If you want a phone that can run a degoogled rom without voiding warranty and don’t mind some American parts Fairphone

If you don’t care about warranty or some American parts you have a lot of choices. Samsung is Korean, Sony Xperia is Japanese, etc

If you want a phone that has absolutely no American parts (which means avoiding the Qualcomm chips in the above phones) you are limited to Chinese phones and really to Huawei. Xiaomi still uses some Qualcomm chips. This will make using western apps a bit of a chore though as they will have to be sideloaded, they won’t be available through the huawei appgallery and the kirin chips don’t support 5g. These are degoogled though. I don’t think you’re in the us based on your post but just in case you are these won’t work in the USA, carriers may not activate them bc sanctions

Qualcomm is hard to get around for cellular modems but their stranglehold is finally starting to get broken. Mediatek (Taiwan), Samsung (Korea), Huawei (China), etc are making cellular modem ics now. Even within America apple finally released theirs with the newest iphone that just released the other day

I’ll have you know I shower occasionally
