Us Swedes pay for it with taxes. I absolutely LOVE paying taxes. No joke. It’s like the ultimate, most unbelievable super-bargain in the whole history of bargains. It’s like finding a signed and forgotten Rembrandt in the attic. It makes EVERYTHING available, to EVERYONE - school, childcare, healthcare, mental healthcare, organizational support, roads, trains, eldercare, school lunches… the list goes on and on an on and on. Also you can rest easy in the knowledge that if someone can’t fend for themselves, you’re helping to pay for what they need. Taxes are AWESOME. So taxes is a good way of paying for healthcare and education - since it works fine here I guess that would be my first suggestion.

I live in Indianapolis, and NODA are wonderful people. My friend's son (he was 33) was in a terrible car accident while she was out of town. The hospital called her and told her to get there because he didn't have much longer. I picked her up at the airport and took her to the hospital. When we got there, there was an older gentleman holding her son's hand and reading to him. He had been there for a few hours and was ready to stay until the end if his mom couldn't make it. Luckily she did make it to say goodbye and donated his organs. That gentleman stayed with mom all the way through the honor walk through the hospital It was so sad and so brave.

It didn't happen quite like that. Danny Boyle, who directed the opening ceremony had the idea about featuring Bond, and he pitched it to the organising committee. Lord Sebastian Coe, former athlete and Olympic champion, was a member of the committee, and he was asked to find out whether the queen would be interested. He is a friend of Princess Anne (she's also former Olympic athlete and on the IOC) and she asked what helicopter they planned to use, because her mother knew all about helicopters. Initially, when they went to film the Palace scenes, they were going to use an actress and needed Angela Kelly, the queen's wardrobe dresser, to give them access to the outfit the queen would be wearing. It was at this point the queen asked if she could be in it, and then she demanded a line to speak. Her only condition was that none of her family was told beforehand. They knew about the filming at Buckingham palace but they all assumed it was going to be an actress.

According to Brain World Magazine, humans, like most mammals, instinctively prefer novelty as long as it doesn’t pose a threat of some sort. (And unless your computer is guarded by dragons, browsing random facts online sounds like a pretty safe thing to do.)
But over time, instinct alone became not enough; as our brain developed, we started analyzing the experiences and learning from them. And since new experiences made us feel good, so did learning about them.
Therefore, whether it’s reading a book with unexpected plot twists, learning about an interesting topic at school, or familiarizing yourself with random facts—it’s all novelty to our brain, which makes us somewhat happy.

This seems difficult to prove their intent. My understanding is they claim the software slows the processor based on battery integrity. As the battery starts to fail, the processor runs slower in order to extend battery life. So they're slowing the phone while extending the battery life.
Jon Steensen 2 years ago (edited)
It really should be the user's choice of whether he prefers a quick phone at the cost of shortening the battery life or the oposite. But Apple being Apple they always think that they know what is best for the customer, even better than he/she does. When they "saved my battery" by making my phone so slow that it said "turn right in the next crossing" AFTER I had passed the crossing when I tried to use it for navigation, my phone became pretty useless and I would have prefered if things had just stayed as they were.

I am so serious right now. Almost all cats love getting high. I know there's going to be some of you that have cats that don't, but I worked at a vet hospital and most all cats love their post surgical or hospice meds. Dogs not so much. They don't seem to like losing control of their jobs (protecting their people). Cats on the other hand, LOVE it. Swatting at invisible grasshoppers and all that good s**t.
In an article for Psychology Today, Shahram Heshmat, an emeritus professor at the University of Illinois Springfield, emphasized that emotions play an important role here as well. He stated that emotionally charged events are remembered better than neutral ones and pointed out that “nothing focuses the mind like surprise”, coming back to the importance of novelty.
Both of these might add to the fact that we often remember a shocking thing we saw online last week better than what we had for lunch yesterday. And unsurprisingly, the internet is full of such astonishing, inspiring, heartbreaking, and in other ways emotionally charged news.

The ‘Weird Facts’ Facebook page is just a teeny tiny fraction of all the random information online. According to Statista, back in 2020, the total amount of created, captured, copied, and consumed data globally reached 64.2 zettabytes.
If you’re interested in how much a zettabyte actually is, it’s a thousand exabytes. If that’s of no help, it’s also equal to a billion terabytes, which equates to a trillion gigabytes.
No matter which way you look at it, it’s a humongous amount of data, which means you ought to find the information you’re looking for. Plus, something completely unrelated, yet likely not less interesting; maybe even shocking enough to stick in your long-term memory.

Justifying the office space & build-out is an excuse some companies use, which just seems ridiculous. There are some factors dependent on the type of business. For example, my hubby is a medical provider, doing clinic, lab and hospital. It’s not just the providers or allied professionals, but even the custodial, dietary, valet, and other support jobs that are needed on-site to maintain all their certifications. Particularly their trauma status. All the clerical and admin jobs that could be done from home or on na shorted workweek actually count in the staff to patient ratio as far as fire & other emergencies are concerned. With 30% of admin working from home, they no longer meet their trauma level. Which just seems weird given clerical work isn’t direct patient care. I suppose the idea is that they’d help evacuate or spring into action given an outside disaster or fire or whatever.

Employers are influenced by management concepts that focus on the observable production of an individual. "How much hay did you gather? How many reports did you generate?" And, of course employers seek to observe and measure these values through direct observation if possible. My sense is these values are far better measured through looking at the contribution to the mission. Contrary to popular belief, many or even most of the entrepreneurs at a given time are inadequately trained in management and often make abhorrent decisions. They need help.

The amount of data we process each day includes social media as well, which has the power to, over time, affect the structure of our brain. Houston Business Journal pointed out that it influences people’s social and emotional response, the capacity for attention and processing information, and, you guessed it right, memory. In addition to that, similarly to novelty, social media notifications also release dopamine, which makes people feel good and seek the feeling again.

Tostones, no, the SW tarantula hawks are definitely NOT gentle. I was stung by one and couldn't move my arm for 40 minutes. The pain was intense and then my arm turned numb. They are beautiful but horrible insects. They inject their venom into a tarantula, lay their eggs in the tarantula's abdomen while the poor tarantula is still alive. The larvae then hatch and feed on the alive tarantula. Sorry, I don't think that is a docile insect.

Brenda 2 years ago
They have to donate the food to an organization of some kind, like a food bank. MILs church received food from a local Panera Bread for their Sunday dinners and/or parishioners in need. Usually, IF you can find a restaurant willing to donate food, a designated employee/volunteer must pick it up at a certain time (normally after closing) on certain days and they must be able to load it themselves. Even then, those that donate rarely give anything that needs constant refrigeration (like dairy) or raw meat. Raw vegetables aren't unheard of, but usually they need to be used w/in 24-48 hours or it's unused vegetables. Soup kitchens feeding large amounts of people are usually the first to get these.
OmBoyGanesh 2 years ago
To be clear: “donated” has a legal definition in this case. To non-profits or food banks and the like. NOT donated to homeless on the street or employees. There have indeed been lawsuits for restaurants leaving donated foods at homeless encampments or set out in area with high homeless foot traffic. Restaurants have lost these specific types of cases. There is no legal precedent for a restaurant being held liable for formally donating their leftover inventory. Also, what they can and cannot donate has been debated.

This was also true for (British) Mars bars. If the stacker at the end of the production line needs a bathroom break, rather than bringing in a replacement or stopping the line, the bars are left to just pile onto the floor, which is kept sterile, and they are then shovelled into a hopper at the start of the line to produce the nougat layer. (May have changed in detail now, this was back in the 1980s).

I heard about a woman who hid her boyfriend in the attic of the house she shared with her husband where he lived for 7 years and even managed to move into her new attic when she moved house and her husband had no idea the whole time that his wife was cheating. Eventually the husband became abusive to his wife and the boyfriend ran out of the attic to save her. He shot her husband and they made it look like someone had broken in by locking her in a wardrobe and taking a few valuables. He was eventually caught by the police.

Ex-boyfriends sometimes come out of the attic, but many more come out of the closet.
CT 2 years ago
The sentence is misleading. The ex hadn't lived in the attic for 12 years. They broke up 12 years ago, they lived their lives on their side, but he always wanted to get her back. Just after being released from prison (where he had spent several years for drug and theft related crimes), he broke in and moved into the attic, where he was discovered after 2 weeks. It's still creepy, but 2 weeks, not 12 years.

Okay, not a good summary of the study at all. First, it was about schizophrenia. Second, female voices activated the right anterior superior temporal gyrus (language processing/social cognition), while male voices activated the mesio-parietal precuneus (visuospatial processing) in addition to the right anterior superior temporal gyrus. Third, couldn't be associated with pitch or behaviour. Fourth, this study is nearly 20 years old and studied only 33 men, that isn't even past a margin of error. All in all, it can be summed up with the meme quote "Your sample sizes are small, your standard deviations are high, your conclusion means nothing, and you should feel bad".

A lot of people (Americans, especially in sitcoms) make fun of the French for the actions of the government colluding with the Nazis (they surrendered easily), and there is very little mention or praise of the efforts by Le Résistance movement across France by the citizens that did whatever they could to thwart Nazi occupation in France, to save Jews, homosexuals and others the Nazis had deemed as "criminals" or "undesirables", long before the USA decided to get involved in the war.
BlueEyesWhiteDragon 2 years ago (edited)
I don't know if that's completely true. I think every ally nation thinks it "won" the war and lifts its own "heroes" up. The UK will wax lyrically about Churchill forever. The US has FDR. And even Russia likes to remind people they were on the right side of history for that one. But one of the US's most beloved WII sitcoms, Hogan's Heroes (1965-1971), has a patriotic French POW as one of the main characters. The actor, Robert Clary was a French Jewish person who actually did survive the Nazi concentration camp and just very recently passed away.

Chlorine in water does not have an odor until it kills some bacteria. The aquatics center I swim daily at has a policy of showering before swimming and I have never smelled chlorine there.

Fun Fact: If you enter an area with a pool, and can smell chlorine, don't get in the water. Pool water should not smell of chlorine, it should smell of water. Chlorine is used to reverse some sort of incident...usually a person peeing or pooing in the pool. The stronger the smell of chlorine, the worst the incident. So, when you go to the hotel pool and the chlorine smell hits you in the face, there's something in the water you don't want to swim with.

Today's elevators are designed to be fail safe in the sense that if the caple breake and the pull from it therefore vanish from the cabin, brakes will automatically pop out and make it stuck in the shaft.

It would have been a huge surprise if she hadn't survived. The elevator cab reaches terminal velocity rather quickly due to the air it has to displace and/or compress (think of a clogged syringe).

So, I lol at Nestlé because they sell all kinds of chocolate products in France (and Europe) EXCEPT their infamous chocolate chips (available only in the USA or for a murderous price via Amazon). Instead, to make Tollhouse cc cookies, I've got to use the also incredibly expensive Vahiné petites de chocolat, which are tiny, and not as tasty as Nestlé 's chocolate chips. I'm also irritated by French "brown sugar"- cassonade-which lacks the' je ne sais quoi' of American brown sugar. ( the "quoi" part being that French brown sugar is made from sugar beets and artificially flavored while American brown sugar is ultimately the by-product of rhum manufacturing, hence the "quoi"). I'm not fond of French patisserie at all. It looks pretty, but that's about it. No cinnamon, no other flavors but chocolat or fruit rouge. Even my teens ignore the cookie aisle at the supermarché because it's sablé, sablé, cheap cc cookie, chocolat coated sablé, Oreo, sablé... Recently I made oatmeal cookies and my teens thought I had invented some really awesome treat. I could only find oatmeal in the vegan section of the store.
