Wouldn’t charging money for blue checks or adding a subscription leave them open to lawsuits? That’s really the only reason I can think of, wanting to make money.

A fairly large portion of governments globally

10 and ^15/16ths sadly. It’s being marketed as AI boosted to 12 though!

I feel like after he gets over the slight he’d be fine with it…

Exactly. It’s like when the US took all the Nazi scientists. Except that it’s pre-ww3…so I guess it’s more like when the US took all the German Jewish scientists before everyone else decided maybe letting the Nazis take all of Europe and slaughter millions of people was maybe a bad thing?

Breaking reliance on American launch sites will be a big deal.

Eh, it happens. If that was an honest attempt to troll…kids these days need to up their fucking game.

slightly less stupid

Which is why that’s definitely not what’s going to happen…

Big Brother Watch, Open Rights Group and Index on Censorship made a submission to the court, arguing against proceedings taking in place in secret and in favour of open justice. Today, the Tribunal has rejected the Home Office’s application, stating it did not accept “that the revelation of the bare details of the case would be damaging to the public interest or prejudicial to national security”.

Neither myself nor, I’m assuming, the person you’re replying to wants to have the government with their grubby little fingers in our data.
What the person you’re replying to was saying had literally nothing to do with what you asked. Has to do with the above. It’s shocking that a UK court actually made a sane call. In this case, they decided that no, the government wasn’t entitled to a closed case. That the proceedings would be open, and the details would be available to the public. Like in a functioning democracy.

Yeah, I definitely feel like that’s exactly it. Just wish it didn’t take worrying about future profit to get companies on board with this shit…

This is pretty cool. At least they seem to be taking preservation seriously. Hopefully they don’t turn into dicks about it.

Gotcha, sorry, I read the situation through a lens of my own experience.

The aforementioned detox was cold turkey, and I absolutely get how hard it must have been. When you have your new team as support, it might be helpful to give a trusted person a bulk of your meds to be given back on an agreed schedule. Might make sticking to weening off easier. Knowing you only have a set amount until the next time would help me(personally) to not go over what the arranged lower dose is, with the assurance that it is actually available if you say… accidentally dropped half a week’s worth down the sink drain opening the container. Which has absolutely happened to me with antibiotics once.

So what my physio had said is that that nerve can get trapped/damaged by having your heel pointed in and toes out. And would be advisable to keep your heel as close to the outside of the foot well and your toes pointed in to operate the pedals. 🤷 I’m just a mason who never finished highschool. Idfk if that’s legit or not. She’s like…26, but went to school for physiotherapy, so I guess she probably knows better than me.

Yeeeesh! Yeah. That’s… that’s definitely a reason to get a new Dr.

Half my life ago I was doing…alllllll the drugs. At levels and mixes that quite honestly should have killed me. Of the friend group I had at that time, 7 of us, there’s myself and one other that aren’t dead, or been in the clink for 15 years and looking at a minimum of another 20.
When I saw the way I was headed, after the first of our group had died, and while I was serving a frankly very lenient non-custodial criminal sentence, I detoxed off coke/crack, meth and heroin (smoked not injected) all at the same time.
I can tell you, not exactly how bad or in what way, it’s gonna suck. I really really feel for you. Just make sure you follow advice on how to safely come off it, there’s a lot of drugs, legal and not, that can easily kill you if you just stop taking them.
Be safe fam.

So I’m in the UK, and while there’s a bit of leeway to see a GP that’s not in your catchment area, the next closest to where I live is really far. Also it’s not really the GP’s fault. They’re required to follow protocol dictated by the NHS. He walked me through it. There’s a program, you punch in the symptoms, follow the questions down the flow chart, it gives you a likely cause. Things like the intensive testing I’ve been told to try and get? He’s really just not authorised to refer me for that. We’ve had quite a long chat about it, and it really just isn’t something that he’s able to do. That would have to be something that a specialist sends me for. I’ve been on the waiting list for 25 weeks, so only 20ish more to go.
The results of decades of underfunded health care systems…

This…fuck…my DUDE!

So up until Tuesday I was driving and hour into work and, due to traffic, my way back would be minimum an hour and a half, but sometimes up to 3 hours if everything is fucked. I had considered that I might have a similar issue, mostly from not having cruise control and how I position my leg/foot while driving on the highway. Haven’t had a chance to look at the videos yet, but I suspect that they’re either the same, or very similar, exercises that my physio has had me doing.

I’ve not been at it long, so I’ll give it time to cook. And, as of Tuesday I’ve switched depot, so my commute is now a 15min bus ride, with a ~5mins walk on either side of it, so hopefully that’ll help too…

✊ fuck yeah! Keep it going!

It’s a sign of her patience and character that she put up with my _ball_istic attitude… actually… she’s a fucking saint for putting up with me before all this went down…

People jokingly call their partner their better half. She’s literally the best thing that ever happened to me. Also weeeelllllll out of my league.

#blessed or some shit

Ohhhhh… that’d definitely be a hard yes.

Totally. I replied to another comment saying basically the same thing. Check that one if you want some over sharing.
