In Germany:

When using vehicles, unnecessary noise and avoidable exhaust pollution are prohibited. In particular, it is prohibited to run vehicle engines unnecessarily and to close vehicle doors excessively loudly. Unnecessary driving to and fro within built-up areas is prohibited if it causes a nuisance to others.

Placebos work even when you knows it's a placebo though. Pointing out something is a placebo is important because many are at best overpriced scams (homeopathy) and at worst actively harmful (chiropracty). The culture behind many placebos is also rife with pseudoscience and advocates against seeking out genuine care, so you should ensure nobody gets invested into placebos past a certain point.

One can make an informed decision regarding taking placebos if and only if one knows it's a placebo, else one will be scammed and/or harmed.

I won't let Big Closet tell me how to live my life. Rule.

Why would you use a pile out of all data structures, only adding is in ϴ(1), searching is in ϴ(n).

I suggest throwing the clothes on the floor and remembering the spot they landed on. That's ϴ(1) for adding and for searching, far superior to a stack of clothes on a chair.

Side note: fuck big O notation, use big ϴ notation >:(

North Korea says Travis King wants refuge from mistreatment, racism in US

King, who joined the U.S. Army in January 2021, faced two allegations of assault in South Korea, and eventually pleaded guilty to one instance of assault and destroying public property for damaging a police car during a profanity-laced tirade against Koreans, according to court documents. He was due to face more disciplinary measures when he arrived back in the United States.

It's just a hunch, but I believe he has more experience with racism than he's willing to admit.

Cruise ship sails into New York with dead endangered whale across its bow

"We are deeply saddened by the loss of any marine life," the officials said, adding that the Geneva-based MSC Cruises follows all regulations designed to protect whales, such as altering itineraries in certain regions to avoid hitting the animals.

Translation: We don't give a fuck what happened because we do the absolute minimum to abide by laws we lobbied into existence, therefore we will not face any consequences.
