Also many birds, especially corvids.

It'll never be truly equal as long as there's a fixed order of the letters. The only way to make it fair is to include all the letters (from every writing system, not just the latin because that feels overly eurocentric) and the guarantee true randomness of the order or come up with some system where the order is shifted by one every time it's mentioned. Also, the original letters must be in the center to begin with (to make them equally distant for RTL or LTR readers), to make up for their historical over exposure.

They used to be considered edible, but nowadays it's discouraged, because they can contain too much arsenic, AFAIK.

Just out of curiosity, what makes you not care about the climate? Is it some sort of fatalistic "we got 20 good years left, so might as well enjoy them" kinda deal?

Nice, that explains the high Muscovy body count from yesterday.

Perhaps anti-vaxx missionaries can do for malaria what christian missionaries do for HIV?

I can totally imagine them setting up camps, teaching people to just "believe in their immune system", discouraging proven medicine in the process.

Det vidste jeg ikke. Hvad koster det og hvordan sætter man det op?

Det er en stakket frist for MobilePay som erhvervsløsning alligevel, tror jeg.

Lige så snart vi begynder at se iPhone Tap to Pay herhjemme, som gør en iPhone i stand til at fungere som en betalingsterminal via en partner app som Stripe eller lignende, så er der nok en del der vil hoppe på den.

In case you're wondering, this is a drawing by the Argentinian comic artist Quino.

"religion of peace" is itself an oxymoron, no matter which one of them it's applied to.

I'm no good with kids, but basically turn the things on and off a few times, to make sure they don't get stuck from mineral build up or something. If you need to change your faucet, you need to be able to turn the water off and this is what these valves do.
