  • They audited less than 40 fewer than smaller businesses?

    What?
    I think you misread the article or I am having a hard time parsing the meaning of that sentence.

    During the 5 year gap from 2019 to 2024 they only flagged 22 ultra wealthy companies cases vs 848 flags for small companies and that doesn’t mean a full audit was done just referred. And that’s the 40 times fewer, the number of flagged criminal referrals.

    I really don’t think you read that. I think you really are looking for bias confirming items and even gloss over presented data.
    Take a second and breath and think that it might be ok to progress your views beyond what you already think you know.
    Or please point out to me your evidence?


  • Me laughing proves the DNC is a progressive party? I don’t think that logic is very robust.

    I think it makes you feel more confident in disregarding the arguments of others which is the point you want to conclude but it’s unrelated to your previous point and that’s searching for evidence to back your preconceived notion which is also bad science.

    Plus this isn’t science or a polling sample it’s a conversation.
    So much wrong with how you interact with others.




  • Laws are a concept that only some of us seem to agree upon and has no real world repercussions for the wealthy since they aren’t like laws of physics and are only enforced for those that can’t afford to negate them.

    Not knowing how things will go is just how the world works. We need leadership that at least tries and pushes for change and asks around for support making it, not money to vote yes.



  • LOL that’s literally Eric Adams and Karen Bass the mayors of NYC and LA.
    Adams took bribes and is now best friends with Trump and Bass “saved money” by cutting the budget for firefighters and then went to an oligarch cocktail party in Ghana during fire season and fired the fire chief who criticized her.

    Both sent the police hard after protestors and have been praised by Democrat leadership for being outstanding members of the party.


  • It’s directly known that if you are taking an SSRI or an SSNRI basically fully blocks the effects of psilocybin and most other hallucinogenics.

    Someone had once said it seemed like deep thinkers, it didn’t work on and I always wonder if it’s some combination of brain chemistry difference in ADHD or depression that makes it less effective in some others not even on them.




  • I mean there were no instructions up front because literally Google is refusing to give them, basically.
    No more choice just the company force feeding the user and saying it’s good for them.

    Nowhere in the email or any of the Support pages did Google say how to remove all Gemini integrations from my phone.
    I then emailed Google PR and… I asked if someone could provide actionable guidance for my readers who want to ensure Gemini integrations are completely disabled. Instead of answering the question, the person responding to my email wrote, in part: “This update is good for users: they can now use Gemini to complete daily tasks on their mobile devices like send messages, initiate phone calls, and set timers while Gemini Apps Activity is turned off. With Gemini Apps Activity turned off, their Gemini chats are not being reviewed or used to improve our AI models.”

    Literally that reads like you can’t turn it off and they just scrape less of your data on a technicality.

    Yeah. But that doesn’t mean it will never be used. It’s normal to want to be paid for the work done but if people want to share they can just share it.
    I think it’s hard to say when someone will want your information and it might be well after you are dead and able to get anything from it.

    There are lots of free recipes I would never use, and there are lots of paid cookbooks that I haven’t gotten my hands on yet but might one day because of their knowledge of making a good roux is worth saving (bake it, not in a pot)

    Oh I am a scientist for everything I do. Make my hypothesis of and test stuff for how I think it would work but also so many people have done it already.

    It’s essentially what all recipes are. Someone else did the research and I am taking their effort for an easier time. The best ones even note what changes to make for slight differences.

    Also higher heat than you think, 400°F/200°C oil works best but you can also go dry and you will get a more puffed size apparently. To much moisture when cooking makes them dense.
    I have discovered a wok is a really great popcorn maker if you don’t want to buy something niche. The high dome lid is double perfect for it and then shaking in the salt.
