Dang. I had kind of hoped this had been increasing a bit over the months.

You’re doing it wrong. The mouse just diced a cucumber really, really l, small.
Now that’s how a short story is written!
If only there were some way to make medical insurance completely obsolete and save the US billions of dollars…
His “lie” sounds like a much bigger lie than his original statement. It’s no wonder it was rejected.
That very much isn’t the case beyond like a decade+ ago. For the last decade its been not possible, or extra work to install apks on sd card. The choice is there, but it’s far from default.
Well duh. I think a lot of us here learned that lesson from watching the movie Multiplicity.
A ton of things that come by sea doesn’t matter much on time. Think about steel and vehicles and raw goods and all the other stuff that isn’t direct to consumer. A month or so isn’t a big deal in many cases.
The problem is that if my math checks out and what is written in the article is true, then this sail boats capacity is less than 1/4 of a single percent of the bigger fuel powered ships. You’d have to make and sail another 500 just to equal the capacity of 1 normal cargo ship.
" (The capacity of the ship, however, is much smaller than the largest modern container ships, which can hold more than 20,000 shipping containers; Anemos can carry around 1,000 tons of cargo on pallets.)"
Thanks for the crap comparison. Why would you use two different descriptions of cargo capacity that most readers could only vaguely compare?
I looked it up, and for the benefit of everyone else: it seems a fully loaded shipping container can weigh over 30 tons.
In other words, the sailboat can carry about 30 shipping containers worth of cargo. This is a lot less than I initially would have thought. A whole lot less. If the big fossil fuel cargo ships can do 20,000 loaded containers, that would mean the sailboat can only do what could practically be a rounding error. 0.15%
That was pre worm, I believe.
Don’t worry, OP. Samsung makes absolute dog shit appliances, so you’ll be replacing that dishwasher sometime in the next 2 years anyways.
Yes, but no one dies if they get pushed back 2 weeks. Also, the cosmetic surgeries are first on the chopping block.
And again, it’s supply and demand. The hospitals want the profit. They don’t want to pay any overhead for the product.
Look at how they’re willing to act in order to attract millions of 12 year old viewers. You can’t fake act being that stupid and emotional for that many hours pretty much every day unless you’re fucked up in the head.
Blood is just as bad, but yes, the markup is insane in the US, compared to the machinery and time to collect plasma.
Blood, for instance gets sold by the red cross to hospitals for around $215 per unit. Hospitals in turn will charge anywhere from $580 to $3,000 for it.
Also, most blood is used for elective surgeries that are not life critical. Any time you hear about their being a blood shortage that could effect what hospitals can give, what they actually mean is that there’s plenty for emergency and necessary use, but they may have to postpone elective and cosmetic surgeries.
Obviously, the issue would be solved easily by paying people enough to be worth it to donate. People would be lining up if they got something like $100 to donate a pint. Something that only takes about 30 minutes to do.
Interesting. Also a super short bit of article.
Where did you find that he was in a seated position at?
Read what I linked. People go around and gather what they can find and catch. Some are very likely to be pets, since they’d be easiest to catch.
If you read the links I posted, you would see that some of them likely are pets. But go ahead and keep your head buried in the sand. A lot of people ignore or deny things just because they don’t like them.
You can sell your babies. Just not like that. It only works for rich people wanting to buy a baby.
