Command Senior Chief

The person who came up with the scheme is also the most senior NCO on the ship. All the enlisted people in charge of monitoring that activity knew, they just knew not to ask questions.You would be surprised how much pull an E-8 or E-9 has in the military.

Yeah… This is a bit sketchy. Pharmaceuticals aren’t just something that an amateur can make by following step by step instructions. Even something as simple as baking a cake requires some basic experience to know when things are going right or wrong.

Even maintaining the calibration on a CLR requires some background experience, let alone building and programming one all on your own. With your actual reactor being as small as a mason jar, it means the margin for error is going to be small as well.

This is neat for people with a background in chemistry, but I don’t really see it as anything but dangerous for the general public. They also are fudging their math a bit to make things seem a lot cheaper. Reagents can be really cheap at bulk prices, but you have to spend the time looking for them, and they aren’t equating the cost of a trained chemist making these medications.

seems today’s pattern in general. Such projects go for something hardly achievable, don’t achieve it, give us all that feeling of passive frustration, and divert attention.

I think it’s kinda a byproduct of venture capital funding. With the Fed prioritizing low interest rates for the last decade, investors are a lot more willing to stick their money in yolo financial schemes.

There are plenty of places on the planet which could use additional electricity, water, wired connectivity, normal roads.

Pssh, why build physical things when you can just gamble on things like virtual currency, virtual intellect, or even virtual reality… /s

Or, say, security from armed apes with UN membership, like Azerbaijan.

Lesser Armenia has really flown off the handle lately. I don’t really know why they have UN membership, Azerbaijan is basically “what if the Saudi tried to build Singapore on the Caspian sea”.

Just what Comcast needs, a fleet of very slow cruise missiles.

Can’t wait for them to park their buoyant IED router above my house if I don’t upgrade to the game day package.

Oh yeah, let’s build our infrastructure project based on tech that requires a large amount of helium. You know, that element that is extremely hard to store and transport. Yes, the one that’s already scarce and is required for vastly more important technologies.

I don’t see what the problem is, it’s not like helium production is a byproduct of an energy sector were trying to rapidly divest from…

Dental eugenol, it’s a fairly powerful local analgesic made from clove oil. Some people have adverse reactions to it and so it isn’t used as frequently as it used to. So I would recommend applying it in a small test area before applying it more liberally.

You can buy it online fairly cheaply.

Not sure if that would really help the whole availability issue. We already force a large population of physicians to be on call 24/7 because there aren’t enough to go around.

Dude complaining about a dude complaining about apple being proprietary in 2024, when apple has built their entire business from day one by being the most draconian closed loop proprietary hardware/software model since personal computers were invented…

You just made the same argument, but in an aggressively dumb way.

Only problem is most of it’s bermuda, which is a fucking PAIN to get rid of by hand

Get yourself an Action Hoe, you basically run it back and forth and it digs/cuts the roots out. It’s very upsetting how easy it makes weeding the first time you use it, turns an hour long job to something you can do in 15 min.

Any thoughts on how the plastic bumper at the bottom might impact that? Do you think that might make any difference at all? You’re still going to hit the metal parts regardless, but that initial impact might be plastic

It may prevent some of the older type injuries where you get your calves scooped off in a parking lot, but it doesn’t really look like it protrudes out far enough to help out in any other way.

really wanna see a 3rd party agency test this so we can finally get some answers, but with the lower front/angle, but the metal/front edge, it might even turn out to be a less fatalities, but more injuries type of situation. That edge is going to be the key factor.

From what I understand they won’t be allowed in Europe due to their increased protections in pedestrian safety standards. Not sure if they did actual testing, or they just didn’t meet the minimum standards.

Unfortunately the materials really matters with pedestrian motor vehicle accidents. When I first started working in orthopedics and rehabilitation, metal fenders and bumpers were still regularly on the roads and causing very specific injuries.

When a metal bumper hits you, it doesn’t just cause blunt force trauma, it tends to shear muscle away from the bone. There was a specific ankle foot orthosis that was widely produced up until the early 2000s that was meant to replace calf muscles that were scooped off by metal bumpers.

This truck is basically a giant flying wedge of stainless steel, I don’t see any pedestrian walking away from an accident with this monstrosity.

If someone’s been dishonest with you and you explain step by step how, and they still continue with the same line of reasoning. Then they don’t deserve the time it takes to make an honest response.

As I said, I’m just utilizing your line of reasoning. If you want honest answers, maybe start by being honest.

Still haven’t heard who you’re canvassing for, or why it’s relevant to the original claim. Until you answer that, I’m just gonna keep the convo to your level of integrity.

now you’re doing the “I’m rubber, you’re glue” thing

Just giving you a taste of your own medicine… No reason to be honest to a person who is obviously not interested in an honest conversation. This is a foreseeable conclusion when relying so heavily on arguments.

Ahh, I was hoping it was “I won’t be responding to any further post”. That one’s on me, guess I was being optimistic.

Though it is strange that you would suddenly start saying you’re ignoring certain aspects of the post, when you’ve been ignoring most of the argument the whole time.

This is becoming quite gaslighty

Unoriginal and a liar, what a catch you are! I bet you have to beat suitors off with a stick anytime you leave your goon cave.

“Come up here and let’s do proper discourse” (yes I know you didn’t say it, but I wish you did

Lol, is not pointing out the fallacy and trying to bring the conversation to the claim at hand several times not enough?

Good day to you, I need to get back to my doom scrolling and cat video’s

Fair, have a good one.

so I think I won’t reply to the rest of your post.

This you?

Of course I look for arguments that suit my biases,

a logical fallacy isn’t a valid argument…

transcended and shed your human weaknesses? Are you an entity of pure energy?

Lol, of course. Apparently it’s the only way to recognize logical fallacies on the internet. Great rebuttal though, must be the power of beige.

You did not “interpret,” you simply told me what you decided I was doing.

Lol, what do you think interpretation means?

Imagine if you stopped lying and just admitted you were wrong…

Tell it to the man in the mirror.

Weren’t you supposed to be shutting up sometime soon? Or was that another lie as well?

you told me what I was doing:

Lol, interpreting someone’s motives is a matter of opinion. I can’t scientifically prove your motivations were virtue signalling and stroking your own ego, and you can’t scientifically prove they weren’t your motivations.

am not going to address the rest of your post.

Still waiting for you to shut up… Please, be my guest.

The thread started as a series of criticisms, it devolved into “who you wit?” because of a strawman argument. One that I’ve been pointing at the whole time.

But, it seems people like yourself are just extremely susceptible to arguments based on logical fallacy that suit your innate biases.
