I honestly can't tell if you're serious. You do know that the vast majority of the chips in all the devices you use are not manufactured in the US? Doubling the prices of the chips imported to manufacture devices here will obviously jack up the prices of those devices
If you treat the idea of (conscious) life after death as a scientific theory, I'm afraid it wouldn't be a very good one. Good theories provide testable predictions. As far as I'm aware, no theory of an afterlife has ever made such a prediction that was experimentally verified. It it had, there would be headlines everywhere, a new Nobel Prize category, and probably every religion but one would close up over night.
Also, even if you experimentally confirm that NDEs are caused by psychological and physiological factors, and are not related to any sort of afterlife, that doesn't prove there is no afterlife. It just proves you have no evidence and absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.
Reddit changed their algorithm. I remember when it came to a boil almost a decade ago. They said they experimented with some changes to the algorithm but they changed it back. Somehow the front page slowed down to a crawl. I don't know that it ever changed back.
Maybe this article is right and the algorithm is failing under the weight of upvotes, or maybe they tweaked it to better steer conversation, or maybe it's just broke. Either way, I quit watching the front page long before I left Reddit for good.
Demand is irrelevant. We're talking about an administration who is trying to bring back coal despite no one wanting them to other than those directly profiting off it. They seem to think that anything bad for the environment is a good thing for business. Trump signed an EO back in March demanding increased timber production and this is just him getting back to that.
Cutting logging roads into forests is what logging companies do. They certainly have the ability to do so already so I'm not sure what you mean by that.
The Trump administration is rolling back a landmark conservation rule from the Clinton era that prevents roadbuilding and logging on roughly 58 million acres of federal forest and wildlands.
This isn't about the roads. They will cut a road into all those pristine acres so they can bring logging trucks in and out. They won't bother maintaining any roads once they've devastated an area.
The evidence covers months of interactions and includes text messages in which Mills—who says he separated from his wife in 2022—warned Langston he posed a threat to anyone she wanted to date in the future (“Strap up, cowboy,” he said in one text) and threatened to release private images shared in the context of their relationship. Langston submitted the evidence to back up an incident report she filed with the Columbia County sheriff’s office last month.
Woah! With this kind of evidence out there, this man is probably first in line to be the next republican presidential contender.
Make sure you put in on the docket right after a trial addressing human trafficking charges against Abbott for shipping bus loads of immigrants from Texas to northern Illinois in the middle of winter with no warm clothing or arrangements to get them to shelter.
"You are now sending asylum seekers from Texas to the Upper Midwest in the middle of winter — many without coats, without shoes to protect them from the snow — to a city whose shelters are already overfilled with migrants you sent here. Chicago's temperatures this weekend are forecast to drop below zero. Your callousness, sending buses and planes full of migrants in this weather, is now life-threatening to every one of the arrivals. Hundreds of children's and families' health and survival are at risk due to your actions," Pritzker wrote. - From a letter to Abbott published in the Austin, TX American-Statesman newspaper
True, but apparently the attempt to resurrect its use uses it for both the voiced and unvoiced dental fricatives where current English usage uses 'th' rather than resurrecting both characters.
You're entitled to release the complete Epstein files.
California's actions have nothing to do with keeping Texas from becoming less democratic. They are thwarting Texas' attempt to help secure republican control of the US House of Representatives and maybe stopping or at least slowing down the fascist take over of the country.
If it helps take the House away from the GOP and limits the damage Trump can do in the following two years, I'm all for it. If blue states do nothing, then the GOP could end up securing an unassailable majority in the US House of Reps just like they've done in so many state legislatures.

Indiana is one of the four states (IN, TN, TX, and OR) that require a 2/3rds majority to conduct business. But, sadly, the Indiana House is is 70/30 Republican and the Senate is 40/10. Even if all the Democratic legislators copied Texas and left the state, there would still be enough in both the House and Senate to pass new maps.
