So... is no one going to comment that it looks like Mads is going down on Hideo?

Jelly beans. The fancy ones with many flavours like butter, apple, and cinnamon.

You'll surely have those bean flavours to talk about, if nothing else.

Ooh, pool depth diss!

Propaganda is usually truthful or exaggerated truth. It's the framing that is important. Some facts are focused on. Some facts are omitted.

I acknowledge that Russia, China and the DPRK have made mistakes and even done things that are deeply questionable. But I'm interested in comparing their mistakes or misguided actions to those of the most powerful military empire on earth. The one involved in hundreds of military actions and dozens of coups since its inception. The one with the largest per capita prison population on earth. The one which controls many of the world's financial levers.

There is a difference in the scale of their mistakes or bad actions. Propaganda distorts that difference of scale. It focuses on the crimes of the "enemies" / "axis of evil" / "rogue states" but doesn't examine context or culpability of the empire. They'll choose one conflict, downplay 9 others, and give a one-sided view of that one conflict.

That's how propaganda works. Every state produces propaganda. One state produces billions of dollars of propaganda each year.

I use Keepass2Android. Is there some reason Keepassxc is better, or just an alternative?

Good film. One of the few good Lovecraft adaptations, IMHO.

Radio Free Europe / Radio Liberty is straight up State department propaganda.

Richard Stanley was hired to direct "The Island of Doctor Moreau" but was replaced by John Frankenheimer after a few days of shooting. However, Stanley considered the film to be his baby (he co-wrote the script) and didn't want to leave. So he disguised himself as one of the mutants and secretly remained on the shoot.

You can watch the documentary about the shooting of this B-movie and it's full of weird details like that. It's called "Lost Soul: the doomed journey of Richard Stanley's Island of Doctor Moreau"

Don't eat between meals to re-establish your saliva microbiome and pH. This will do a lot for prevention of carie growth.

Is that David Frum, speechwriter to the Bush Jr administration? Writer of speeches about the axis of evil? Writer of speeches to whip up frenzy for an invasion of Iraq? An invasion based on lies? That David Frum?

Very wise. He spent his nights with the fairy by the river.

Calculator?! Those thieving, energy-sucking piles of garbage! Abacus till I die!

But seriously, AI is insidious in how it data mines us to give us answers, and data mines our questions to build profiles of users. I distrust assurances of anonymity by big data corpos.

They have noses worthy of being our successor species. Something you'd see on the cover of a sci-fi novel called "Children of Earth" or something.........

Let's not have advertising slogans in posts about products here on Lemmy. Reddit really has that going on if you're into it.

Thanks for your thoughtful answer. I agree that so much is at stake with diet. It all changed for me when I hit 40. I'm going to have to think about the manageable pieces of diet you mentioned. That appeals to me as practical.

The article states that there is no evidence that this is caused by Russia. But then goes on to speculate that it's caused by Russia. Journalistic standards have fallen.

Why do you think it is especially difficult to follow this diet now? I keep trying to implement it myself but find the high effort required difficult to sustain, given other demands on my attention and will power.
