Your intro does not make it clear - is it not all bad?? Why claim "propaganda" just because the US does it too? Fair enough if you want to spread awareness of all forced labor equally, but your response makes seems to me like you think it's not actually happening in China, only in the US (which if true a source on that would be nice, not just sources about it happening in the US).

It seems that several employees of Nexon left and recreated a game that Nexon had been working on, down to buying the same Unreal assets. I saw somewhere (but I have no source so this might be inaccurate) that as part of the legal proceedings, the Dark and Darker team were ordered to provide documentation about the early stages of creating the game as proof of originality, and they had nothing to show.

I disagree with many of his views, but I definitely wouldn't call him right-wing. He seems to me more like a libertarian from before "don't tread on me" actually meant "please tread on me." Hell, he's said the CEO of Nestle should be shot.

Only for chicken, for salmonella reasons, and steak, because I'm terrible at judging doneness without it.

I would guess you're doing a much larger range of motion relative to each joint, squatting "ass to grass" but doing calf raises just from standing. Your ankles don't move as far generally as your knees, but if you want to maximize calf gains, do them off a ledge so you raise from the bottom of the range of motion to flat-footed.

You've both mentioned the same "Israel has a right to defend itself" quote. I'd be curious to know when/where he said that.

It's for the federal charges

None of the people I know who own Teslas (mix of pre-owned and bought new) are on here, but by poking around I did find a random person with a normal Tesla parked out front on Google street view, so it's not just cybertrucks.

I also sought out my partner's neighbor who has a cybertruck in the driveway every time I'm there, and that wasn't on there, so I have no idea where dogequest might be sourcing this info.

In a physical medium, it's way cheaper and easier to make light color thing dark than make a dark colored thing light. "Dark mode" books would require dyeing each sheet black, then painting the text on top of each sheet, rather than what is currently done, where we bleach each sheet white, then dye the text into each sheet.

Somewhat related - this is why printers use CMYK, rather than RGB. Computer screens use pure light, so they simply emit whatever combination of light they need to, and your eyes add them together. In a physical medium, however, what we see is based on what is reflected, i.e. not absorbed. Hence, each color of ink, in additive terms, is two colors together (cyan is green+blue, magenta is red+blue, etc). When you combine CMYK colors, you can precisely control what wavelengths of light are being absorbed in order to reflect the correct color.
