Dailymotiom is french so I had hoped that anyone wanting to watch them could just go there. However, I don’t see most of the videos in question there.

Looks like the videos exist on this Russian video hosting site: https://m.vkvideo.ru/?q=Lego+trump&action=search

In case the headline didn’t tip you off, this is a satire website. :)

Note that the title is referring to ore extraction mines. At first I thought they meant a new military anti-vehicle mine. :O

The article doesn’t make this clear but “proficiency testing” is a “testing the testers” activity that ensures that labs’ procedures are working. So milk testing done by labs will still be done but those labs won’t be tested until this is resolved. Yes, the activity being stopped is important but a short stall shouldn’t immediately accept food safety.

IIRC the plan is for the de minimus exemption to end on May 2nd. So we may see similar changes for sub-$800 shipments after that.

Using our tax dollars to house people in a Salvadoran prison. Yikes. What are the chances we can stop payment on that one?

I love the question and hope to see some good responses here.

If someone reading this has Ryan Mcbeth’s ear they might want to point him to this post. He’d likely have good suggestions. Here’s one of his lectures on disinformation: https://www.youtube.com/live/THfi_lxBvW0

Edit: Here’s another much shorter video of his on disinformation: https://youtu.be/DZ6eMYW7Xwc

Congrats, you made me wonder what the specifics were enough to look it up.

Here’s the case info for anyone else that’s similarly curious: https://caselaw.findlaw.com/court/us-dis-crt-sd-new-yor/114642632.html

Great article. Thanks for sharing.

OP- Consider removing the 3 “opens new tab” statements. Those are an artifact of how you copied the article’s content.

To anyone that hasn’t yet seen the movie Idiocracy, watch it now. Best documentary you’ll ever watch.

They charge to 80% quickly so I think anyone staying longer than about 25 minutes probably found something to do nearby such as eat at a restaurant or do some shopping. I think most people that own EVs do most of their charging at home so the only time they use chargers is on long trips and they plan their charging stop(s) to be when they’d already be needing to pee, stretch their legs, and maybe eat a quick meal.

Finally a headline that doesn’t bury the lede. Local news outlets have been using headlines that suggest the concern is his reading of profanity and not that he substituted a colleague’s name into a story about rape.

Seeing the CPI plotted over time helps to get a clearer feel for how it is changing:

https://www.bls.gov/charts/consumer-price-index/consumer-price-index-by-category-line-chart.htm

Based on that chart, things don’t look as dire as the cited “~20% since 2020” stat. Yeah, we’re all still feeling the effect but it seems that the rate has dropped into normal-ish territory. Now the questions are “How close are businesses to really feeling the hurt of the lack of cheap borrowing?” and “If/when we drop interest rates how much immediate effect will that have on inflation? How much can we drop it without really spiking inflation again?”

Do you see the comment from user “Maalus” immediately prior to the comment that you first replied to? That’s where it was said.

If you cannot see that comment it’d be interesting to understand why. Maybe you have blocked that user so can’t see his comment but you are seeing replies to it?

Finally a proper shower thought in this community haha.

I’m sorry that you had to go through that. Hopefully the dentist is alarmed at this failure and reflects on ways to avoid it in future procedures.

She probably saw from your eyes and expression how stressed you were. You might have looked a little “wild-eyed” to her. She barely knows you so she wouldn’t know with confidence that you behave well under pressure.

I suggest that you leave a message informing your dentist of what happened here regarding insufficient pain management. You can include an apology if you want for seeming stressed.

The goal here is to inform her that she can do a more thorough job managing pain. Part of that needs to be telling her patients to speak up as soon as they begin to feel pain. I’ll bet that had you told staff of the pain they’d have found a way to manage it. Probably the Dr would have popped over and dosed you with something.
