Yup. My Samsung TV remote has this feature, and it works pretty well (as long as you don't lose the remote under the couch cushions for too long).
Likewise but I use a programmable one and the original one is in a drawer. I should see if it still has a charge.
Karo is not HFCS , but yeah, lot of kitchens have hydrogenated oils (a.k.a "shortening", also "margarine"), artificial colors ("food coloring"), and flavors (vanillin probably is most common). HFCS would be unusual in a home kitchen, but "invert sugar" is less so and pretty much the same thing. Sucrose itself is already highly processed, it doesn't exactly come out of the beet as a white granular substance.
Also preservatives are kind of a cornerstone of mass food production. Granted not all preservatives are the same, but I think the reason we use "chemical-based" ones (whatever that means) is that traditional ones (like NaCl) don't scale well.
I'm sure it wasn't the millions of unvaccinated and unscreened illegal immigrants bringing the disease across the border
Much like in 1930s Germany it was Jews that carried diseases. Goebbels would be proud.
I think it's perfectly fine if someone resells their ticket. If the market will bear that cost/resell, then so be it. I go to concerts, sporting events, and other big events and have for decades in multiple large cities. I've NEVER had a problem. It's a false dichotomy to present the situation as if it's either the tender mercies of the government or everything will be scalped. Don't be a simpleton.
Your own sample of one does not preclude you from analysing other data points. If you did you would find this is actually a huge problem. Speaking of simpletons...
The reality is that if the tickets are selling out that fast and they're being resold for significantly more than the original price, then they were underpriced to begin with.
Tickets sell out fast because scalpers use bots to buy them all.
we should all stop and give antivaxxers a round of applause
You do know that it is the CHILDREN of anti-vaxxers who are suffering and dying, not the stupid, manipulated parents, right?
Sad for the kids, but still qualifies for Darwin awards.
I think we should all stop and give antivaxxers a round of applause. Never has anyone regressed the human race so quickly. They wanted the dark ages and I'll be damned, they are getting it!
Next up, Polio!
The answer may surprise your children, but not your grandchildren who will be sadly too familiar with the mess we've created for them.
I'm not that interested in the alternative world they envision either. They can trade all their freedom for safety after we are done with ours.
You don't think Elon Musk and Bill Gates have noticed that they are completely dependent on you and your filthy little consumers and worker bees in order to have their wealth and prestige and power?
Of course they've noticed it and of course they don't like it. They are taking steps to eliminate the dependency.
Can't be done. They rely on vast global supply chains for all the perks of modern civilization just like everyone else, and that cannot simply be replaced, even if they felt like spending all their money doing so.
