You might want to check out wikipedia.

That’s literally alternative medicine defined as per well, science. And you being silly doesn’t take from it. In the past, viruses were considered alternative medicine (quackery even), until they were proven to exist and work as in theory.

If you hit someone with a stick and that person gets cured of cold, it’s alternative medicine (you suspect there’s correlation or causation, and repeating the treatment during other incidents tends to have similar effect, i.e. when you hit more people they also get cured). When it’s proven that there’s causation between your action and the cure, then it’s medicine.

Tbh I find Italian culinary traditions underwhelming. Like they just gave up 10 minutes in, no work at all because it’s too hot.

To be fair, the further from coastline, the better the Italian cuisine - more herbs, more variety, more complex recipes (e.g Ligurian braised rabbit)

I’m not sure what are you trying to tell me.

That you agree with me that “alternative medicine = not proven to work, but I’m wrong somehow”?

That wiki article is very biased.

It also has problems distinguishing pseudo medicine (proven not to work) from alternative medicine (not conclusively proved or disproved).

Because for a party that was screaming at the people that they need to do various things (vote, worry, protest, whatever), Dem party is sickened by inaction. Not even token opposition.

It happend in Poland in 2010 too :)

Not codified?

Some opportunities are codified to only VIPs - e.g. you can’t invest in a hedge fund legally unless you have certain net worth.

Punishments? If a punishment for a crime is monetary (like a fine), it’s an absolute, not percentage based, so wealthy and not people are affected very differently by it.

What else do you want? Literal human hunting license?

It’s called VIP and the concept isn’t new.

I complain about popularity of fantasy romance vis a vis non-fantasy romance, and that now most published (or advertised) fantasy books are fantasy romance.

That genre is typically written for women, with female lead and is heavy in certain tropes.

That genre isn’t for me.

Am I a person that you’re ranting about OP? If not, could you point me to an article or opinion piece that you’re talking about, so I can read it and come back here?

I have access to the same information as you, so unfortunately, I don’t know.

The article literally says you will still be able to push books via Calibre etc, but won’t be able to download books into Kindle from PC.

Example: If you don’t have a WiFi at home, there is an option to connect Kindle via USB to your ethernet connected PC and download books from Amazon that way.

And this option is going away, as most people have WiFi.

Anywho, fuck Amazon (for other things, but not this one).

No, no, a good billionaire is a dead billionaire.

People who has been maintaining the kernel and weathered multiple fads are wary to see if new guards will “stick”, or just stay along for a year or five, disappear and leave the old guard with shit.

Yes, if lightbulbs went from 60W to 7W it totally makes sense for me to put 20 of them. /s

Dumbest argument ever.

The “royal we” means you, not you and us.

Could your point be shortened to “what about it”? I think so…

Madam, not mrs.

Do you have adult friends, aunt, uncles, grandparents, whatever, that can spent quality time with your children or is every adult a potential abuser and you watch them all with the same level of scrutiny?

I simply mean being vigilant with interaction between my children and others

To be honest this is something what I’d expect to hear from survivor who hasn’t processed their trauma. I’m not trying to tell you you’re wrong to be vigilant, but to me this reads like a subconscious cry for help. I might be totally wrong, in which case I’m sorry.

watch interactions they have with people like a hawk,

This seems unhealthy on your part. Like paranoid or smthing.
