The website sciencebasedmedicine.org is a great place to get accurate information and covers scams and common trends.

- Comment on Space Honey 1 week ago:
Imagine trying to clean it. You can’t whip out a mop. Showers, wash cycles etc are all no go. Not too mention experiments from plants, chemicals, drugs etc which create their own issues. In some ways it’s clean, but others not so much.

Given how filthy the ISS is, I don’t know if I’d want to eat anything not nuked into oblivion.

Funny thing is, I’m pretty sure there are way more books they missed.
- Comment on W10 EoL and possibly switching to Linux (various tech questions) 1 month ago:
1a. Linux can access NTFS and exFAT without issue so can read and write your disks. 1b. Usually the software you want already exists on Linux or has an equivalent. Wine can run most things fine but I’d suggest just convert your Windows install into a Virtual Machine image and use that instead for any complex proprietary software which chances are you don’t have. 1c. Firefox and it’s forks have portable profiles. You can literally just export your passwords and bookmarks anyway. 1d. Nope. 1e. Just run it from a virtual machine if you are paranoid. Normally you just boot up, try it out and if you feel like it install. 1f. Everything can get viruses, it’s just that most that tend to be aimed at Linux are more after servers than home users currently. 1g. Chances are everything will work out of the box, but things like unusual peripherals like a capture card etc may need software installed.
Linux Mint has good driver support and a tool to install drivers for more obscure hardware in most cases.

If you have that many people they can just knock them out. This is what should have happened a year ago.

While possibly true, the fascination is Putin’s, he’s just following orders. Putin has wanted Venezuela and greenland for a long time.

Sony has no competition right now in their market so they will be fine. Besides the PS6 isn’t to far away.

Terrible video. PS5 sold well as it has tons of games and a reasonable price. Switch 2 doesn’t have either yet. Microsoft marked Xbox for death with it’s stupid 30 percent profit push. Done.
