They are still a union protected job on construction sites and the docks in NYC.

The quote comes from the Joker in The Dark Knight Rises, which would have been said during GWOT. The odds of death were lower during those wars/occupations than previous, but the odds were still higher than the civilian population.

The Internet was a place.

Compared to now, you had to go somewhere physical to be on the Internet. That changed the relationship that people had with the Internet, you went there to do something rather than have it entertain you when bored. It also meant you weren’t always available to being messaged.

There were also a lot less videos online due to bandwidth. Animation was a far bigger deal since the bandwidth needed to show an animation was significantly less than the bandwidth needed to show even SD video.

If you have two siblings from a set of well mixed parents, the odds are likely lower because it is likely that only one parent had the gene at issue.

However, the taboo of marrying siblings and first cousins are usually cultural, which means the likelihood of both parents having the same gene which will cause a genetic issue. So, if you have a human population with a smaller overall gene pool and/or families where intermarriage within a family is high, the odds of genetic disease from familial interbreeding spikes.

Not necessarily. If the problem is on a recessive gene or it isn’t a problem with only one out of two genes expressing the trait, the genetic disease won’t get bred out of the family.

It is generally part of the job description. A soldier in a war has a high probability in dying. A soldier’s death is a typical cost to war. A politician, in contrast, doesn’t have death as a potential risk to their profession. If anything, the death of a politician is generally a sign of the state being actively harmed.

Some forms of social interaction are fun for me, others aren’t. I usually do better in smaller groups.

All bids have to be to the dollar, not cent.

Don’t. Take a break. Touch grass.

You’re not going to find too many horse farms in the Phoenix area. Most animal based farms in the area are for cattle.

And as for a combination of rural and suburban, the divide is a lot firmer in Arizona since farmland tends to get developed in large chunks as suburban communities. The farms don’t have any relationship with the suburbs except as a place to drive through until the land gets developed.

And it is not going to be close to downtown Phoenix. Unlike Lexington, there was never a growth boundary chosen for the Phoenix area. Development has sprawled pretty far, only really limited by mountain parks and Indian reservations.

The problem is that Putin needs the grift to keep him in power. He keeps the wealthy in line and the wealthy keep everyone else in line.

France is the only country I’ve been to in Europe that does a good job providing water.

It depends on the tourist place. Europe is very stingy with water, but other tourist parts of the world aren’t.

Is it correlation or causation? I ask because I’ve seen other evidence which seems to indicate that depression is an early indicator or mental deterioration.

I don’t usually, but I get the window seat to give me sometime to lie against.

The rule is that, unless you’re in a first class seat that can impact the person behind you, you can recline.

But less electronics waste is less profit. If everyone who bought a 2 year phone bought them every 4 years instead, that’s a 50% drop in sales.

It depends on the power density. A battery with the current power density but increased longevity isn’t going to be as useful as you’d think.

A battery that is able to have the same power output as current batteries but last a century is going to be a weapon of mass destruction.

I like and subscribe to some of them. You just got to pick the good ones to follow, like someone who will tie in his film criticism to a season long plot arc about a talking coconut trying to gain clout or someone who will teach you what dub con hetero Omegaverse is.

They come with different preconceived notions about your friends than you do.
