By quantity, sure. How’s the quality?

It would be, though not just US farmers.

Any country that sends large amounts of food, clothes, etc. as aid wrecks the domestic production and sustainability. Why would anyone work to establish a farm or textile production when you can get imported rice or castoff T-shirts for almost nothing?

Same as when Nestle gives away just enough free baby formula for the mother’s milk to stop, so then they have to keep buying formula. If China (or any other country) drives an industry into the ground, then the community is dependent on the imports.

I swear to god if the next administration pulls the “now is the time for pulling together and healing” instead of prosecuting, I’m going to be rip shit

Why would having a world government mean losing municipal sovereignty? In the US, we have a federal government, but still state and city governments. In the EU, countries still have sovereignty.

Race?

Ok great. So now Israel is just committing a secular genocide without the veneer of religion. I don’t see that that’s better.

Yes, but even an “empty” tanker will still have some level of oil in the tanks, plus the fuel in their tanks, plus whatever else is on board.

Nothing is truly safe. Risk is relative. Assess the risk and decide for yourself.

Because it was never about drugs.

I don’t think it does.

Is “advised to exercise caution” language that means “closed”? Or is it as read by a layman

I don’t think he’s got his orange facepaint on in that one.

The headline is wholly unsupported by the study. They asked seniors if they volunteered at “religious, educational, health-related, or other charitable organizations”, not political organizations. Even as noted in the article:

The work also keeps Williams sane. Following politics leaves her “ready to tear somebody’s hair out,” she said.

If anything, the stress of living under fascism probably shortens your life expectancy. Apparently living in a democracy increases it by 11 years, which probably outweighs the volunteering effect: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S1353829216300326

Yes.

They probably did the math on letting China copy them now or over the course of a few years.

Hard drives don’t normally make a clicking noise unless it’s the head resetting due to an error. I’d definitely check the health of that drive, and make sure your backups are working.

In the Trump administration? I don’t know if you could find any.

make sure that the disk and boot configuration is the same (uefi, sata, secure boot)

No, just match the settings. There’s really no good way to recover if it’s broken; I’ve never been successful at fixing it and I always end up reinstalling. If the settings match you won’t have to do anything at all.

Same. Some people say that having to wait for your search to complete across all the indexers is slower, but I’m okay with that because I just set it and forget it.
