There is a lot of public misunderstanding of the rodent studies that linked aspartame to cancer, which are very flawed and essentially come from a single Italian research group.

There is still no definitive link to cancer risk in humans so I would continue to be skeptical. The maximum recommended safe exposure for aspartame is the equivalent of 12 cans of coke, and the strong effects from the rodent study were using exposure amounts equivalent to 5 times that amount, or 60 cans daily, every day of their life after day 12 of fetal life (i.e. before birth).

Almost anything can cause long-term health risks and toxicity at such massive exposure levels.

Link to the free Pubmed link to one of the original source studies from 2008 so you can see their methodology and the absurdly massive exposure amounts needed to ovserve these effects:

This is about protecting establishment career politicians, not about what voters want and not about what they are capable of understanding.

Male pattern baldness is the correct answer actually

/r/all was unusable without Apollo letting me filter out 90% of the subs that show up there, all ragebait and reposts.

Late-term abortions are nearly always due to serious complications that endanger both mother and fetus, or in cases where the fetus is already non-viable or braindead. You are proposing forcing mothers to risk their lives to give birth to dead fetuses. Educate yourself instead of parroting conservative propaganda.

That clump of cells would need “conciousness” or the ability to think for itself to be considered sentient, something you apparently lack as well.

Twitter: owned by Saudi Arabia, endorsed by the Taliban. Great new tagline!

Found the language prescriptivist! Linguists, let’s all point and laugh at them!

It’s actually an incredibly relevant and appropriate equivalence, since restricting access to abortion care means endangering women’s lives in cases where the pregnancy is non-viable or there are other serious complications to the pregnancy.

I would be enjoying it more if it wasn’t bought, paid for, and orchestrated by Saudi Arabia in an effort to suppress free speech and democracy.

So long gay Bowser

Yeah, if you don’t hydrate it you’re just building drywall in your intestines.

Winds up being counterproductive for weight loss since everything gets trapped in there longer and more nutrients are absorbed.

Bethesda really has no incentive to actually make TES6 so long as they have healthy subscribers for TES Online, I’m not surprised at all the game has likely been put on ice until the next generation.

Fortunately Starfield looks amazing and will hopefully fill that void for most of us who want a single player experience.

If you don’t know the difference between leftist and liberal you should probably crack open wikipedia before you try to crack a witty retort.

I think part of that is how popular merchandising like funko pops have become in recent years, Futurama was many years ago at this point.

Second reason is that despite its longevity in the internet consciousness, it’s easy to forget Futurama was fairly unpopular when it was originally airing.

8==D even

My biggest problems are with the MMO aspects (renown grinding and fetchquests), they really slow down the gameplay in a bad way to me and will not be fun to redo once seasons start.

It really detracts from replayability, I used to really enjoy starting new characters in D2/D3 but it feels like a slog in D4 since it takes so long for the game to open up.

Presentation is overall fantastic though, the character designs and equipment are great and the music is phenomenal (headphones needed), both are huge steps up from D3 for me.

Class balance and skill balance is clearly not finished yet and needs some work, endgame is extremely narrow and feels bad for some classes. That will definitely get some rebalancing, hopefully more builds can be viable by season 1.

Almost, probably biometrics and passive camera/mic usage

Senkaku islands, there’s pretty regular posturing from both sides over the ownership of a couple barren rocks since they have implications for territorial waters.

Here’s the wikipedia article:

I’m really hoping Sorc gets some buffs to make it more fun to play, I just tried starting a third one (abandoned all 3 before WT3) with full renown bonuses and it still feels like wet tissue paper both offensively and defensively.

As they play now, probably Rogue (movement speed/skills feels so good while leveling) or Necro (just the best feeling overall despite terrible speed).
