Do you mean that the ambassador lied so much that his views shouldn't have been aired, or that the fact checking is unacceptably anti-Israel.

Or something else? I'm not sure how to interpret your statement.

Yeah, coverage of Israeli/Palestinian conflict is notoriously filled with half truths and misleading implications. I think having a fact check co-published is quite useful.

I don't know what that guy's problem is.

I think Jesse did a good job. I'm extremely skeptical of the ambassador's explanation of the invitation to collaborate.

Seems pretty sexist to even ask.

When was the last time trump shot a gun?

Was that G7/8 kettling?

Right I get that, but the underlying value that the prohibitions are designed around is promoting humility and preventing vanity.

I don't think jewelry wearing is compatible with the Amish conception of propriety and modesty but I'm not going to say it wouldn't happen.

I just watched Andor. I enjoyed it more than the Mandalorian, and much more than the Obi Wan Kenobi series (so far).

Ah yes, the best military is the one full of "alphas", where nobody let's anyone else tell them what to do.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, it's my opinion that the Electoral Reform committee was sabotaged by the liberals from its inception. Ie they gave themselves a minority on the committee so that the committee wouldn't be able to make a recommendation.

I don't think it was Trudeau that sabotaged it, but I think it was the Liberals.

Go to the hardware store and get some pex tubing, and a shark bite union fitting.

Cut the tubing to the size you want, use the fitting to close the loop. The fitting can be removed by pressing on the ring around where the tubing goes in. They're may be a tool that will make this easier.

So you can put all your chokers on the ring, then rotate the one you want to the opening

Pretty interesting!

The Wikipedia article has a ton of info. This magazine article which Wikipedia references is imo a better introduction https://knowablemagazine.org/content/article/technology/2022/cochineal-red-dye-bugs-moves-lab

Ateam has managed to bioengineer a fungi to produce it, but with very low yields. Another team has managed to get e coli to produce it, they estimated that a 100,000 L fermenter could produce the same amount as a hectare of land.

100,000L is 100m^3 which is a cube with 4.7m side length. ~15'x15'x15' or uhh ~~~the size of 4 F150s.

Edit to add: a hectare is 100m x 100m ie ~100 yards x 100 yards.

I'm feeling totally vindicated with my "this seems like a pretty one sided story" take from when this first surfaced.
