I just use my washing machine as my dirty laundry basket. Take it off and not gonna wear it again? Toss it in the washer (or at least in a pile vaguely in front of the washing machine until I get around to actually putting them in…)
Though, I have also ruined many towels this way because apparently zippers and stuff tend to want to rip out the looped fibers on them.
The stingray ended up being sick and not actually pregnant. They were possibly seeing cysts, not eggs. Or possibly cysts and eggs and the illness caused the embryos to abort and were eaten before anyone noticed them.
And then murdered her and grazed/shot their daughter in the leg earlier this year.
Cacao prices went up sharply a couple-few years ago, but have gone back down the last year or two.
It’s part of why Dubai Chocolate everything was a trend. Use a fraction of the chocolate but charge a premium? Nearly every chocolate producer was all over that.
That’s fair. There are some available in other markets but they’re definitely fewer and further between.
Some phones do have built in radio receivers. If that’s genuinely a feature you want, they’re available.
They got like 3% of their funding from the Gates Foundation, not exactly like they’re fully beholden to them.
IIRC, there’s evidence that many of the central statues on the cathedral were originally painted, but those installed later typically were not.
Hydro doesn’t boil water, either. Just moves it around.
It is, has been for almost 2 years. I’ve had mine in the US since Oct 2024.
It’s not compatible with some NA networks, but it is available for use with providers that it is compatible with.
Fairphone.
Some algal species can be used as biodiesel sources due to their high oil content, so you could probably just diversify the kinds of algae.
Loopholes are a problem with a standard. But a problem that probably needs revision rather than just scraping the standards.
I said nothing about souls. If I’m talking about souls (without direct prompting), I’m deep in a psychotic episode.
I don’t really get what you mean by the gestures broadly thing? I’m very open to an expansion on that thought, but have no current sense of what that means.
It’s not just the vague idea of quantum hootnannies, it is the fact that intentionally inducing extra quantum hootnannies in the brain structure of animals has a noticeable impact on the effects of various anesthesia, i.e. the “anti-conciousness drugs”.
I’m not claiming there is definitive proof, I’m simply stating there is some real, empirical evidence that supports the notion that consciousness is an emergent property reliant upon a maybe narrow range of emergent effects from quantum mechanics that are inherently absent from Turing machine computational models.
There is some limited empirical evidence to support the hypothesis, yes.
For example:
Through state-of-the-art spectroscopic techniques, specifically two-dimensional electronic spectroscopy (2DES), we’ve detected quantum coherent processes in the microtubules within neural structures. This provides empirical support to our hypothesis about the role of quantum mechanisms in cognition. Furthermore, we provide substantial empirical evidence for quantum mechanisms underlying cognitive processes, including decision-making and memory recall, and present a quantum model of consciousness.

Quantum effects are literally one of the things that computers are designed specifically to avoid. We’re bumping up against the point where we can make conventional computer chips more dense the same ways we have previously since quantum tunneling causes some noticeable errors in computing when things get too much closer together.
The difference of scale is in the grey area of the difference of scale of quantum and classical mechanics, though. Conciousness very much could be something that depends on the emergent properties of quantum mechanics and doesn’t reach classical mechanics.
Syria was doing its own terrible tyranny until pretty recently so Israel previously felt like the country could do its own internal unmitigated violence, and now its trying to trend towards something at least slightly better and they believe an improving Syria is a potential future threat. Turkiye is further away than either Syria or Lebanon, so they need to produce a better “excuse” to start shit there, but attacking Iran with little retaliation has them thinking they can shoot their missile-shots there soon as part of their attempts at broadly-regional dominance.
That’s what the top of the dryer is for, I’m pretty sure.
