Nobel winning Hiroshima survivor's Gaza comparison angers Israel
  • Lol even the Nobel peace prize winner angers them.

  • Regain Control in my ass
  • Happier in my ass

  • HTTP Cats
  • Now this is some real Internet right here

  • I'm so sick of every single medical-related question people have online constantly getting spammed with 'talk to your doctor!!!!'
  • If you are unsatisfied with talking to a doctor, then read medical literature and interpret it better than the doctor for yourself. Don't go bothering other people online about it who have no capacity to solve your problems in a short post exchange.

    Going online to ask for expert advice about a specific health question is like googling a very very individually specific error message and then experimenting with your body to see if else's "fix" will help your problem. If you posted on stack overflow with a question, then that community can't help you without detailed error logs, screenshots, etc. This expertise is offered freely, but healthcare is not because it is risky, takes time and energy to learn enough to solve even simple problems, and humans don't come with error codes.

  • 8-hour time-restricted eating linked to a 91% higher risk of cardiovascular death
  • Are you an author? Sorry. I didn't mean to be rude

  • Not only is "Seinfeld" vastly overrated, any claim that it pioneered the concept of "a show about nothing" is ridiculous and imbecilic.
  • So what is the sitcom from that era which should be getting more credit in your opinion?

  • 8-hour time-restricted eating linked to a 91% higher risk of cardiovascular death
  • https://s3.amazonaws.com/cms.ipressroom.com/67/files/20242/8-h+TRE+and+mortality+AHA+poster_031924.pdf

    The actual data is pretty lousy... The 8 hr group has almost 30% smokers and mean 1 pt higher in BMI than the 12-16 hr group, and the forest plots cross one for all cause mortality because they only had 414 subjects in the fasting group. The fact they chose to report on this using the relative risk is also super shady

  • The Real Reason No One Is Giving Biden Credit for How Good the Economy Is Right Now
  • But, if a Republican who encouraged austerity through the pandemic, or a centrist who did not provide as much stimulus were in office, then it would have been more likely a repeat or worse than '08 with 10% unemployment... Which shitty situation would you rather have?

  • Appellate judge refuses to halt Trump's $454 million fraud penalty while he appeals
  • God I just love the irony of him not being able to pay this after him bragging about being a billionaire

  • Heat-pump water heaters are a winner for the climate — and your wallet
  • Thanks for this, I live in Florida and have a conventional resistance electric heater in my garage so I'm looking pretty hard at this. Why can't the condensate be drained into the water tank to be used in the house? Is it unsafe?

  • No regrets: Gender-affirming chest surgery in adults has long-term satisfaction
  • In my opinion this is a valuable step forward but was inadequate to assess for the problem at hand. Only 59% of patients who were surveyed responded which opens up to a significant bias and seems to be too few patients surveyed to detect the outcome in question. I agree that the vast majority are satisfied or do not have regrets, but it seems unrealistic that it would be 100% satisfaction. Who can claim 100% satisfaction for any kind of medical procedure?

  • Drunk Driving
  • So much sadness and pain in one sagittal plane

  • Opinion - What are your thoughts on password managers? Do you use one? Would you recommend it to others?
  • I'm not going to say whether it's the best or not because I have not compared, but I have used Keepass2Android for years which seemlessly integrates with my cloud storage and key files (stored offline), has useful randomized password generation, and is overall unobtrusive
