  • All of the OP’s points could be said about church sermons as well, and yet there’s still thousands of church gatherings every week.

    So I think your point hits the nail on the head. People don’t go to these large gatherings because they’re looking for a presentation of convincing arguments, books and recordings are better for that. They go to experience the sense that they are part of something bigger than themselves. They want to feel like they are contributing to something important, and a large crowd all in unison makes them feel that way. Rallies aren’t meant to change minds, they’re meant to get the base excited to donate/ volunteer/ talk to anyone who will listen.

    There’s no risk for a factory condition unit. This rumor started after people with units that had been dissasembled and reassembled had issues with vertical orientation. It turned out that it’s very easy to mess up the seals that keep the liquid metal thermal interface in place. So units that had been previously taken apart had liquid metal slowly leak, causing overheating and/or shorting.

    If you haven’t taken the cooler off the mainboard, using the vertical stand is just fine. I haven’t seen any evidence of factory assembled units suffering leaking. It does imply that user servicing of ps5’s is a bit risky, and you might need to be wary of used units where you don’t necessarily know the service history.

    To avoid unnecessary confusion, taking the covers off to add an m.2 ssd does not add any risk.

    Radioactive decay is not the only way to make lead, and lead is produced in much greater abundance than uranium.

    The part that’s missing in the post is in looking specifically at uranium deposits and making assumptions about the initial composition of the deposits, since the crystalline structure excludes lead when the crystals form. So if you detect lead contained within zircon, it is assumed to be the product of radioactive decay.

    Similar to your third option, cut kielbasa into ⅓" slices. Brown in generous amounts of butter. Remove from pan and brown a similar volume lf sweet onions. Add in sliced cabbage about half way through and adjust your heat to keep everything browning. Stir as needed, but not continuously; leave stuff still long enough to sear, but not burn. Get the egg noodles going. When the cabbage has cooked down enough to be tender add the kielbasa back in and turn down the heat. Season with salt and peper, and a couple splashes lf balsamic vinegar. Be conservative with the balsamic, but it will really make the seared kielbasa pop if you get it right. Then serve with the wide egg noodles when they finish cooking. The wide egg noodles should look more like a wide fettucini, not the short curly noodles that many stores carry.









  • For example, I used to use generic eye drops. Then there were a bunch of recalls on eye drops made in India because they weren’t kept sterile and people were getting eye infections. So now I make sure to only buy eye drops that are manufactured in countries with actual controls on health codes. It turns out that imposing that restriction elliminated all the generic options. I’m certainly not happy to be paying double for brand name pataday, but I don’t care to mess with the chance of eye infections.
