My point was more people in rural Alberta vaccinate their cattle (by your account 90%), than people (58% by NIH data). A few dozen sick calves is a good economic reason to vaccinate cattle.

The same public health reasons for their kids, not so much.

It's a thing.

Sure. Here you go: Alberta's rural communities vaccinate 25% less than urban citizens. So, my point being made (because we actually have rancher friends who don't vaccinate...it's a thing here...no foolin')

No point linking to a headline, "How nervous are investors about the stock market?"

Nearest quote to an answer:
"I'm not saying we're in a bubble. I'm not saying we're not in a bubble. The question is what's going to drive the downside," he said. "Things don't usually spontaneously decline."

Ugh.

I had a mono SE, but after a few years I gave it away. I had to organize print times so the stink and mess wouldn't interfere with normal life. Loved the results, but it's better to breathe freely.

XTC3D is a clear coat for prints. On bigger gnarly jobs I use it and it basically eliminates sanding (I've also used UV resin to smooth smaller parts and that was a game changer, especially for jewelry and worn parts).

Looks great though...looking forward to seeing the finished thing.

Asks a question about Trump, gets an answer about Poilievere. That's fun.

That Trump ordering strikes, literally on American soil, is, weirdly, the most presidential thing he's done.

The region votes staunchly conservative, so expecting help with an issue they don't believe in is more likely to get them a new water sucking coal mine than drinking water.

wikipedia's data shows that AI is siphoning traffic away from the site, which is a danger to its sustainability. ironically Wikipedia is more important than ever to users who want reliable information instead of slop, and to AI companies that need it for training data www.404media.co/wikipedia-sa...

Wikipedia Says AI Is Causing a Dangerous Decline in Human Visitors

“With fewer visits to Wikipedia, fewer volunteers may grow and enrich the content, and fewer individual donors may support this work.”

I'm all for anything that lowers the barrier to SOME kind of activity. I mean, for a lot of people walking from the car to the pickleball court is an uptick in exercise.

I was once an aide to the president of a Xian university.

He was continuously concerned people wouldn't blindly accept (often bizarre) statements as truth (which was unsurprisingly malleable in his view).

His favourite meme and catch phrase during his tenure:
