Getting lots of matches is useless when you’re looking for a handful of great matches. For that you need a great matching mechanism with thousands of parameters - what OkCupid used to have before Match Group destroyed it.
In Memex crowd thinking environment for thoughts unthinkable to separate beings, human-machine general intelligence raises superintelligent offspring to help all life.

Investing everything in engines and abandoning battery development in the early 1900s. Lead-acid batteries were heavy but usable, and electric cars were more popular until electric starters were added to engines. A disproportionately big, short-lived reason was the lack of sufficient electrical grid for electric cars trying to go far.
Nobody in government was thinking ahead, so everyone was forced to trying to make their own money NOW, and that’s how we get inhumane tech in general. Same thing happening in computers for decades now. We need centralised R&D free from market influence for the benefit of all life.
Just as bad as Tinder = worthless compared to pre-MatchGroup OkCupid.

Fucking Toslink: one round optical fiber in the middle, but it plugs in in only one position out of four, and you can’t feel which way the female connector is. EU should fine the assholes responsible.
Reminds me of when I used an anti-wrinkle cream as a hand cream once. It anti-wrinkled the skin on my knuckles, so making a fist, the knuckle skin went so tight it started to tear.
It may be that your gut health is constantly poor when stress triggers things. I used to become ill from cold exposure for several years - tyramine from foods leaked through the small intestine to the bloodstream (which is bad) for about three days after each exposure.

“Only rice” is an elimination diet for allergies that I should have tried decades ago, but dumbass mainstream medicine never recommended.
I found out there are slow allergies mediated by immunoglobulin G that you can’t detect while eating, so I did a blood test. Found some strong positives (milks, eggs), and then through elimination found out false negatives that I also can’t eat (peanut, soy), and, thanks to the doctor whom I went out of my way to see about IgG, some that are typically harmful to those with IBS that I also need to avoid (gluten, sunflower oil, rapeseed oil). Supplemental protective agents Aloe barbadensis, xyloglucan, and butyrate also help. Getting really healthy now - no more IBS if I don’t eat mistakes.
The mainstream doctors say that’s all nonsense and that I’m a hypochondriac who perceives having gotten better for no reason.
My previous successful departure from the mainstream was making my gallbladder go from “full of stones” to “empty except a thin layer of sediment on the bottom” as seen by ultrasound. Now that there’s proof, the doctors can’t dismiss that. https://www.quora.com/What-are-some-good-diet-considerations-for-Gallstone-sufferers/answers/107344862
It’s for all the pets at homes hearing the same audio, now with original insects and birds outside and mice in the walls.

Immigration! … people that contribute less to the economy and commit more crime than locals … . (Stats are out there. …)
Have you considered harm/benefit planet-wide? Is it really better leaving the escaping people under oppression / war / climate disaster caused by pollution from the West? They’ll contribute even less to the economy in their home country.
The liver has different enzymes to break different molecules, so those drugs might all use different ones, not slowing down the breakdown of others. I didn’t check. Wikipedia usually tells drug metabolism in detail.
It should be kept charged at ~3.9V/cell (~65% charge), assuming 3.7V nominal voltage. Best storage temperature is 10°C, if memory serves, or maybe it was the best for charging. Self-discharge rate is ~15%/year at that temperature (~30% at room temp), so if you charge to 4.05V (80%) every 2-3 years, it should last long enough. All values depend on the exact cell chemistry. Learned on Battery University long ago.
My phone is 7 years old and the original battery is fine.
I lived in Taiwan for two years, partly because of the climate. Now Finland unfortunately - it has 3-5 tolerable months in a year.
Inside 23°C for sleeping, 26°C for sitting.
Outside 30°C with strong wind and high humidity, but I can appreciate the popular cool, crisp, dry air.
There is some evidence for the bizarre ideas: Social dominance theory - Wikipedia
People who score high in hierarchical world belief see the world as full of differences that matter because they usually reflect something real, inherent and significant. Such individuals often separate things of greater value from things of lesser value.
The effect of computer software on human culture, especially on cognitive development, crowd collaboration skills, methods of democracy, and economic systems. We had such a great start until ~1983: My answer to “Who invented the modern computer look and feel?” on Quora
This gunpowder green tea is good for beginners or the lazy because it’s mild and exceptionally tolerant of steeping too long, or in too hot water. Never bitter.
If you already like green teas, try some Taiwanese 10% (nearly green) oolong, more complex than plain green. 0% oxidised is green, 100% is black, oolong is everything in between.
