The think I’d be most curious to see is what the infection risk from those giant vaccination admin sites ended up being.

I dunno, this just sounds like the obese people who claim everyone under size hippo has an eating disorder to me.

We certainly didn’t hear the same pity when some Haredi were converted to anti-meningitis-vaccination a couple years back (apparently, the anti-vaxxers flipped the community because the only women and all-women fitness studios is observant women and hippies), and it’s not like Jews don’t have a history with…

I wonder if this could be a disconnect between dense northern black communities and more rural Black Belt black communities, but pretty much, yeah.

How’s the saying go? The only time you need to go through China to get from Florence to Paris is driving in Maine?

black Mercedes, resembled Brown’s black Genesis, according to the cops

On 2, there’s a movement to make more intuitive alert sounds so you can know what the problem is just by the sound of the alarm. The example was to make medication alerts (this was mostly about hospitals, which have eight different chimes going in a room at any given time) sound like someone shaking a bottle full of…

I have one that converts through all the forms.

I remember seeing a Popular Mechanics article maybe 15 years ago about the military looking into this. It would certainly make parallel parking easier (and allow greater parking density) and possibly change lane shifts, and isn’t all that difficult in a A/4WD electric because the motors are already there.

I guess he’ll have to get used to pregnancy in staffing, given that Bialik is Orthodox.

Also, I’d be interested to find out when various Japanese, and even European, manufacturers figured out Americans salt their roads. It’s less necessary in Japan, from what I understand, so Mazdas used to rust instantly in our market.

Yeah, American cars might not be reliable, but they’ve always been able to be fixed by someone gesturing with a wrench in their general direction (these things might be related).

What exactly was the difference between an Olds and a Pontiac? I thought Olds was basically the Mazda of its day, often being the first to get new technology before other brands trusted it (and sometimes after) and generally the only performance car you could get below luxury. Was there a big shift in target between…

Do you really think your kid is going to prioritize the car not being a giant mass of tetanus over it either being cool or cheap to fix when the engine falls out the bottom (after all, he has a minuscule budget that there will be nothing left of after the keys are in his hand)?

Of course, a kid with money on the line gets final say and probably can’t afford the upkeep on the Volvo he can afford to buy.

I think it depends on the area and how you handle money in your family. If cars are a needed provision for a family member at any given time, you have to kick in (in my area, a bike, maybe a longtail if I want chores, would be the better option, and I could be persuaded to kick in on a Super Cub). If you never gave to…

Unfortunately, prices have kind of kept pace with inflation AND how long the cars last. That’s fine for most adults and second cars, as you can save up over the time it takes to wear a car out, but puts teenagers in a tough place because they have such a constrained time to earn.

While it was older, so some of the complaints might be out of date, one of my public health podcasts (I think Public Health Review?) went into real issues with vaccine mandates, noting that it created a sort of test that couldn’t be passed in vaccine deserts (which I guess could be stretched into a “Jim Crow” argument…

I mean, I have heard that European norms are why Ashkenazim found religious grounds for outlawing polygamy while Sephardim didn’t. Of course, that was still in the context of marriage, and pretty rare in practice.
