- Comment on Alabamians Want Answers About a Four-Million-Square-Foot Data Center Coming to Their Backyards 3 weeks ago:
It's amazing that a company can get public officials to sign an agreement making it illegal for them to give any information to their electorate about a project that would have a huge impact on them in every possible way. No elected official should ever sign such an agreement. Why would they? But, they did. Corruption is the only reason I can think of.
And why is there no law against elected officials agreeing to become agents of a corporation against the interest of the electorate? Same answer, probably.
But all these people were elected by the ones they are hurting. And the electorate most likely elected their leaders based on some emotional non-existent issues instead of picking leaders based on commitment, honesty, and a desire to help people. From what I see from the rest of the country, and we are talking about Alabama here, they may have gotten the government and outcome that they deserve and are actually responsible for their own problem. I think American voters are bringing all of this personal damage upon themselves.
I'm a disillusioned American, by the way.

I'm glad this got sorted. I know Jeena. I was stunned and confused to hear he was banned for spam. That itself sounds like satire.

You're absolutely right.
A worse example, pharmacy.amazon.com only uses a 4-digit passcode to log in, and it's a pharmacy site!
- Comment on If I'm stuck in the same area as someone who is clearly sick (runny nose, coughing etc) is there some combo of short/long breaths or nose/mouth breathing that's a better defense against catching it? 7 months ago:
Everyone is answering about wearing a mask, when the poster clearly makes the point that they don't have one. They can't just poof it from the air. The answers are not helpful.
The question is about whether shallow breathing and nose or mouth breathing is better. It's a very particular question. An interesting question.
Does anyone know, with real scientific knowledge, what the answer to this specific question is? Can anyone answer to the specific question?
