Are you suggesting lower cost and some convenience in exchange for incomprehensible risk is somehow a bad deal?

They do mention the incubation period for Rabies in the article can be up to two years, and they also mention it being found in seals starting in 2021.

You are correct that anyone bit recently may not be able to 100% confirm no transmission, but if no one bitten since 2021 has had Rabies from seal bites its still an accurate assessment.

Especially if people are bitten in (salt) water. Rabies spreads via saliva which is likely going to have a significantly smaller viral load if the bites happen in ocean water (also mentioned as a possible reason for low/no infection)

I am not sure what point you are trying to make, or how it relates to my comment/the article?

Even if we’re talking about someone who simply lacks basic or any morals, that would make them even more susceptible to Greed.

Especially when using a system specifically designed to provide them with vulnerable people who are mostly hidden from public and given less wages and rights, don’t know local laws, and are incredibly desperate.

What a convenient coincidence, heartless Greed finds itself flush with unlimited desperate workers. Again.

Indifference is just a tool they use - the root cause is Greed.

They hate immigrants, but love slave labour. Then use immigrants “taking jobs” (what the farm owners actually want, because slaves are very profitable and locals would never do that work at that wage) to rile up the population to vote for Conservative governments, who often don’t change the influx of immigrants but who does love to lower taxes and turn a blind eye to labour abuses.

This is the first genuine aneurysmposting type content I’ve seen on Lemmy, congratulations!

Good luck with reality, gonna be tricky if it’s filled with conspiracy and mental illness

Government/police insist on having basically unlimited ability to spy on people within the US, and then maybe catch a part of one operation after collecting heaps of evidence over months/years with tons of victims irrevocably harmed - and eventually a few main people get like 3-5 years in prison on a plea deal.

I get the whole “building a case” thing, but letting multiple children get abused, while other sickos learn the ropes to eventually “get enough evidence” so a few people can plead guilty for a comparatively light prison sentences is absurd. Shut anything about it down immediately. Even if it doesn’t go to trial/conviction I’m sure the police have creative capacities to deal with child abusers outside of prison.

And people still think sex education in school is about teaching children how to preform sex acts, instead of helping them avoid predators.

China also gets to ramp up war economies for Taiwan

Obviously more US aid is crucial, and it’s recent absence is clearly having negative consequences in Ukraine.

If there is a silver lining, it’s that all of Europe is finally getting it’s military shit sorted out.

Russia is settling into it’s war economy and the rest of Europe has decades of dust to shake off it’s military capabilities.

Obviously NATO and individual European counties aren’t fully engaged in war like Ukraine is, but the resources consumed by war is proving just how under prepared Europe is for a long campaign.

The best way to tell if it’s a false flag operation is to see how much this event will be spread in the Russian media.

They’ve lost tons of equipment and had bombings deep in Russian territory, mostly affecting their oil production which could be perceived locally as Russian military inferiority.

So when this starts being on blast for every channel and frequency - you can be sure it’s a false flag.

If they bury this like any other Russian military failing, then it’s probably real.

Edit: ISIS claims responsibility, but Russia is still trying to blame Ukraine, which is kind of a false flag?

You can absolutely explain the ending.

It’s just that you will also be wrong

I originally typed ‘Arguably the worst thing we’ve done’ but the more I think on it, humans are generally terrible.

If it wasn’t religion, it’d be racism, sexisim, geography based hate, abilisim, left handedness, phrenology, etc etc etc. Religion is just another lubricant to placate docile individuals, and justify the actions of hate focused individuals

I’m certain we could all live together in peace, but we’re so tribalistic that the second anyone says their group is better than X because Y the majority of the population seems to lap it up at nearly any expense.

From google

The bill raises the threshold for which the executive branch can approve an arms sale of major defense equipment without congressional notification from $14 million to $23 million

So assuming they maxed it out and only did exactly 100 transactions, that’s 2.3 billion going to IDF

23,000,000 * 100 = 2,300,000,000

Hopefully the white house is doing this for Ukraine 10fold and running a circuit around the current Russian-American Congress

First Harambe, now Flaco.

We’re two already horsemen deep and nobody seems to notice

I just got a blue ray of samurai champloo - mostly because I’m sick of media in general cycling through multiple streaming services only to become unavailable.

The SC blue ray came with a digital copy from funimation (now crunchyroll). I saw online that it’s basically a scam that doesn’t work so to see for myself I created a paid account to hopefully get access to the digital download.

I found out it was unsupported, and at best it would only be available online and with an account - no opportunity for actual download/ownership.

So I immediately cancelled subscription and had them fully delete my account. I figured complaining about their shit policy by cancelling a paid service and fully deleting an account would hit some metrics at least.

When there’s a show/movie I really enjoy, I either buy physical, or torrent so I actually have it. Only some things on the internet are forever, and with the volume of content being created, “permanent” is now often only for a few months before it becomes nearly impossible to find again.

AI isn’t good enough to replace workers, but it could probably replace C-suite executives at astronomical savings to the company

Why is this meme written in Cumfont

If you haven’t tried the Enzyme supplement Fodzyme I can’t recommend it enough.

Ever since I started using it I can (mostly) freely eat foods with garlic and onions as well as a host of other things.

It doesn’t work on everything, but I have been ordering it since April and I am no longer reading every label on everything to avoid being sick.

Everyone is different so there’s no guarantees on what will work for you, but I’ve been telling everyone about it (mostly because people always ask what I’m sprinkling on nearly everything I eat).

I get the brown jar because the individual pouches are a rip off, but it’s less of an investment if you want to try!

Wouldn’t the inside of your house still have wood framing structure like this though? Looks like this neighbourhood uses vinyl siding, but you could easily have a brick/stone/stucco exterior.

Isn’t it way harder to run plumbing/electric through cinder blocks, let alone hanging drywall? Or do you build a cinderblock box first and then frame the inside with wood?

This place looks like it doesn’t have a basement, which is a must in Canada, and all our basements are generally concrete pour or cinderblocks, but we still have framing on the inside walls, and usually everything above the basement is wood + facade

I mean, they kind of already do that.

All the taxes I manage to evade (buying/selling a couple hundred dollars worth of stuff from Kijiji/marketplace) wouldn’t really affect me.

But scraping hedge funds and professional tax dodgers would put a ton of cash into public funds, so I’m all for it.

Kind of hate that slippery slope argument of yours “if they can take millions from greedy billionaires, imagine how many millions they’ll take from you!” is a shit argument that defends serious tax evasion.

First they came for the billionaires, and I did nothing, ‘cause fuck em’ that’s why.

Eat the rich

Garlic and onions do that to me anyhow, my resonance frequency is garlic and onions.

Dairy too, but it’s not a vegetable. Thank God for lactose pills and fodzyme
