Yeah, imagine getting rabies symptoms, knowing you’re going to die, and having no memory of any event that may have led to the infection.

Ok that’s stupid af, but also why is that even an option?
Where are you getting that 2%?
I assume that 2 rabies deaths in 10 years for however many organ transplants in that same period is much less than a 2% incidence. A quick google tells me that there were over 48k organ transplants in the US in 2024 alone.
If someone died of rabies, it would certainly be known that it was rabies. The symptoms are pretty obvious and it’s not likely it would be mistaken for anything else.
More likely, they were infected and died of some other cause before symptoms started showing, which can take as little as two weeks or potentially over a year.
We may feel certain of things, but we weren’t there to witness anything. We didn’t see anything happen, and are only learning of the details after they’ve been filtered through several people. We don’t know anything about motive, potential external threats, anything really. All we know is that this woman was strangled, and it is likely he did it.
Just 1% of shareholders voted to approve the proposal
1% of shareholders, or the holders of 1% of shares?
What games should do is tell you the impact that settings have on performance. Just a text blurb that mentions how significantly you can expect a setting to matter. I’ve seen it in a few games where some settings are marked with something like heavy performance penalty but it would be nice for more things to be labeled.
Looking at something like the task manager will tell you your CPU or GPU is maxed out, but how do you know what to change to correct this? Can you just change a few barely-noticeable settings, or are you expected to replace your CPU? If the recommended is CPU X, then why is my CPU Y maxed out? If I exceed the recommended build, why is my performance so bad?
Often the recommended build is not enough to max out graphics at reasonable framerates, for example.
I live in Texas, and I recognize we would probably be able to handle our own disaster response
The state that famously shuts down when it snows?
She is an immigrant and knowingly committed a felony that some people spend a very long time in prison for. People have been deported for much less.
I think weed should be legal in the first place, and I think it’s pretty fucked to deport her, but to say she that none of it is her fault is just wrong.
There’s a lot of stuff to unpack in this case, some of which was her fault, and some of which was not. Her lawyer advised her to sign the deportation agreement presented to her assuming they wouldn’t follow through with it, and then they did.
What’s the point of screencapping text that’s already included in the submission? Like the whole process is text-based, and adding pictures or video of that text adds nothing useful.
What do you mean “side effect?” The head of the health board is telling people not to get vaccinated, and to take vitamins instead. This isn’t a side effect, it’s entirely intentional.
Bourbon distillers who invested time and money cultivating markets in Europe and Canada are now worried about becoming “collateral damage” in escalating tit-for-tat disputes.
Bourbon is made in states that voted for this. It’s not collateral damage, it’s face-eating leopards eating their faces.
When it comes to whisky/whiskey they vary a lot in flavor, but have many similarities based on the region due to all kinds of factors. Bourbons in particular tend to have noticeable vanilla notes, which may or may not be lacking in other types. You can use bourbon or rye, or really any other whisky in an old fashioned, but you probably wouldn’t want to use an Islay single malt (well I wouldn’t, but maybe you do, I don’t know) but I think that’s specific to Islay, and I mostly would be fine having one made with any type of whisky.
Anyway, my point is that unless you’re looking for something specific about bourbon that you can’t find elsewhere, alternatives are at least as good regardless of where they come from. I like a good bourbon, but at least for the time being, I wouldn’t buy any.
There are great options everywhere, including American whiskey. But with so many options, losing one is not a big deal.
I’d be curious how many people go looking specifically for American whiskey purposely looking past all other alternatives because that’s exactly what they want.
As long as it costs less than traditional electric heating, it should be fine.
It would not. All work puts out an equal amount of heat for the amount of power drawn. A 1500 Watt electric heater will put out 1500 Watts of heat, and a 1500 Watt computer puts out 1500 Watts of heat, but only if it’s putting in enough computing work.
That computing work might be worth something if you’re lucky, which is where the actual savings are. OP ended up saving much more money from heating less than from earning any crypto.
I feel like people are trying to read too far into Trump’s intentions. He doesn’t even know what a tariff is, he just knows that it hurts someone, and being a bully that’s all he wants to do. He’s just trying to throw his weight around and make people notice him, and it’s working.
It’s another example of being ‘right’ but being ignorant to the full picture.
No, it’s just wrong. These are import tariffs, paid to the government by the individual or company importing the goods, and not by the exporting country.
The goal of import tariffs, is to increase the price of imported goods and materials to promote the use of local alternatives. The problem is that the US has given up on a lot of production of raw materials and imports a huge amount of them, like aluminum and paper products, from its neighbors. So now those raw materials cost more, and even locally-made products, made with imported materials, will have to get more expensive as a result.
The free market dictates that in a shortage, the cost of the goods or services must rise to meet the equilibrium of supply and demand. Anything else is surely incredibly inefficient.
The younger they start, the longer they can work.
