Some do. I'm sure it is possible with terminal programs. In KDE, you do get authenticator pop-ups.

Also, the opposite is true. Israel is a big threat to Iran. Would Iran have been justified in bombing Israel first?

I think prisons have to be reformed in almost every country, including my own (Canada). Prison should fill one or both of these roles:

1. Isolate criminals from society,
2. Limit freedom as a deterrent for crime. Generally agree that imprisoned people should have the opportunity to rehabilitate.

My point that i want to make is that the punishment should not exceed simply limiting freedom. Prison should protect prisoners from violence. Prison should allow prisoners to live fulfilling lives while there in prison. Prison rape should not be a fact of life in prison. Prison should not dehumanise prisoners. Prison should guard all rights of prisoners (apart from freedom of movement). Prisoners can't be forced to do work or even follow a routine. Etc.

Unfortanutely, it seems things are so fucked up that not many have time to seriously fight for prisoner's rights (including me).

I think the statistic of 3.5 is more of a symptom rather than the cause of a regime's fall. For 3.5% to protest means that:

1. Anger has reached a high level in the general population (a lot lot higher than 3.5%),
2. The state of affairs is dire enough and hopeless enough that the trust that the system can improve on its own is very very low.

Probably other reasons.

It is true, it seems, that Nicotine treats ADHD. There is at least one study that showed nicotine patches (18h and 24h ones) provide a mild to moderate relief for ADHD in people that do not use nicotine otherwise (e.g. nonsmokers). So, it doesn't just treat the symptoms of nicotine withdrawal.

Cigarette smoke is known to contain a clinically significant amount of MAO inhibiters that are not nicotine. MAO inhibiters are regularly used to treat depression and anxiety, and theoretically could treat ADHD since MAOI's generally prevent breakdown of dopamine. There is some nuance here.*

• For example, there are different types of MAO (monoamine oxidase - an enzyme that breaks down monoamines. Dopamine is an example of a monoamine), like MAO-A vs MAO-B, which break down different monoamines, and MAOI's (MAO Inhibitors) differ on whether they inhibit A, B or both. Furthermore, there are reversible vs irreversible MAOI.

I assume the Saudi plant will be staffed with grossly underpaid labourers.

Hindutva... is that India's Modi's brand?

Oooh coffee!!

I think this misrepresents the conversation that actually happened. Paraphrasing, it was something like this:

R: The constitution says you cannot deport people without due process. Do you agree? Trump: No, I'm not sure... R: It says so in the Fifth. Trump: I don't know, I'm not a lawyer. R: Do you agree that you have to follow the constitution? Trump: I don't know, I'm not a lawyer. Due process for millions of people does not sound possible.

While it could be taken from that convo that Trump did say he doesn't know if he should follow the constitution, I think that it is clear that he was probably saying something like "I don't know where the Constitution stands on due process."

I'll say though, it is crazy for him to say he doesn't know what the Constitution says. I know he probably does that for legal reasons. Anyway, for a president who swore to follow the constitution seemingly not knowing anything about the constitution is preposterous, to say the least.

I think it's more that placebo studies of vaccines could be unethical. Vaccines are preventative treatment. A placebo study would mean that, say, we give the vaccine to 50, and a placebo to 50, and then wait some time (or, for much more unethical, deliberately inject people with the virus), and compare the results.

For something like the common flu, this might be fine, but for something as dangerous as measles, this can be deadly.

I am interested to hear from someone knowlesgeable how vaccines are supposed to be tested.

Or what "most popular" means

Omg thats hilarious.

"“We should have expected something like this,” said one Trump ally who would only speak off the record as she’s currently the premier of a western Canadian province."
