If used as needed roughly once a day for even serious spinal pain, you may find that a $40 vape pen cartidge can last up to 3 months. A very little goes a long way, as lower dosages are needed to achieve the pain relieving effects than the euphoric effects, especially with high-CBD indica strains.

You might want to try cannabis for that.

Nope, dam failures have killed tens of thousands of people in the last 50 years alone. Thete are single dams that have failed in the 20th century that killed thousands in a matter of minutes. No such event has ever occured at a nuclear power plant, even at Chernobyl. All confirmed deaths from nuclear power production…

Now put that next to the literal mountains of carcinogenic and radioactive slag and fly ash from a single coal burning power plant over that same period of time. Coal kills tens of thousands of people every single year, from poisoned groundwater, landslides and accidents in mining regions, to pulmonary and respiratory…

$10 per barrel is nothing. We’re talking raw oil here, not gasoline. It would amount to a few cents per gallon at the pump, but you already have more variation than that in price from one gas station to the next, so nobody in the general public would even notice or care.

I worked on Tomb Raider Legend (and several of the other following sequels) at Crystal Dynamics, so it’s cool to see this story retold after so many years. I think the one thing that was really important creatively for a lot of us on the team was to basically disregard Angel Of Darkness and just focus on making a…

He’s a populaist who trades purely on the anger and confusion of the electorate. Maybe he is or isn’t aware of the institutional and systemic problems that have caused this anger, but all of that is really beside the point. He will literally say anything that he thinks people want to hear. That allows him to change…

No. Let’s spend the enormous amount of money that would cost on effective vaccines instead. It would have vastly fewer unintended consequences, such as total ecological collapse due to a cascade of related plant and animal extinctions. Tons of keystone species require them as a primary food source. Kill those off and…

It’s interesting, but it also happened how many millions of years ago? Whatever it was, it probably isn’t there anymore.

So basically he’s saying we need to get our war on harder, declare total war on a wide swath of the middle east (calling it a police action) and not give a shit about any consequences for civililians living there, or the global economic and political fallout such an escalation would cause. All while we dance around…

Unregulated labor markets give us 5-year-old coal miners. Mature labor markets are regulated to minimize externalities (like polution and resource mismanagement) and worker exploitation (which itself leads to costly externalities such as civil unrest, an insufficient tax base and greater demand on social services due…

Or, if a multi-billion dollar organization wants to hire people to fulfill a role, they can go ahead and meet the same labor standards that every other business is required to meet. If they don’t want to do that, they can just simply not have cheerleaders at all. No big deal. At minimum wage, the cost to the…

Or they can organize and fight to be paid more.. which is what they are doing. You know, capitalism.

If that was true, so what? She shouldn’t be paid for her time and labor because... why?

Why would they even bother with manned fighters? Maybe the idea of non-sentient automation is culturally abhorrent to them.

I certainly would if I was watching my neighborhood get absolutely bombed to shit out of the blue... but what do I know, I’m just a normal, fairly well-adjusted human.

You do realize that “Allah Akbar” is also commonly used in the same way as “oh my god”, which is a pretty tame way of reacting to your neighborhood and all of the families living in it being randomly carpet bombed, wouldn’t you agree?
