Am I missing something? I only see the AI overview as an option after clicking the "try new features" lab logo. Are some versions of Google search forcing this feature currently?

Just to be clear, did she recommend that specific clinic? I'm not a fan of her past work but I think it's a stretch to blame something like this directly on her.

The beauty and skincare industries have tons of claims flying around that are less-than-validated but going to a facility that uses basic precautions is probably still a good idea.

As an additional data point here, the American Academy of Dermatology Association still has a page up with more info about the procedure. It makes it clear that it's unproven but it's supposed to be your own blood that's used for the procedure. It ends with a recommendation to talk to your dermatologist to decide if it's right for you, much the same as any medical advice found online.

From their page:

"Few studies conducted in people

All these benefits have created high demand for a procedure that has little evidence to back it up.

Few studies have been conducted because the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) doesn’t require the large, complex studies necessary for new drugs. Since PRP uses needles and a centrifuge, the FDA classifies PRP as a medical device. The rules for medical devices are less demanding."

Splintered media environment means we don't actually have a shared set of facts to discuss with people from the other side anymore. We can't have normal conversations when we can't agree on the basic facts on the ground.

Sure, any sources should be checked. That said, do you have any particular reason to doubt the figure?

The two countries have declared a "no limits" partnership, have they not?

The Intel seems to be about CNC machine tool exports from China to Russia, and FT has also reported (here) on the increase, citing Russian customs data.

Are there any Russian or Chinese sources you know of that are reporting contradictory information?

From the article:

"She faced an array of charges along with her husband, Eric Chu Nap Kee, a billionaire Hong Kong real estate operator, and 85 co-conspirators, including lawyers and banking regulators from the capital of Hanoi, the seat of communist rule."

So, she did bribe officials. Probably pissed off the wrong one, though.

I knew what this would be without question. Felt it in my bones. The old ways are still strong.

Is making art with the rain an option?

Sand darkens when wet so that could make a cool canvas, theoretically.

You could also play with that "wall of rain" effect you sometimes see when you are just outside of a heavy rain area.

Alternatively, just make "social commentary" like a torrential downpour on the financial district. Sometimes art is just revenge.

Hunting down Catholic priests

Turns out they were basically bounty hunters for Catholic priests during Elizabeth I's reign.

"Really? How about dying for it?"

A vote saying they won't support the Dem ticket in November without a big change still means something, even if the race has already been called.

Everyone already knew Biden would win handily since the first primary. That's why they voted uncommitted instead of for an alternative.

What's the old lingers?

Real moderates are mostly just low information voters who don't spend much time thinking about politics to develop an ideology or world view.

The generally accepted political narrative is that these sorts of voters mostly just care about the economy.

Lots of people call themselves moderates but consistently vote Democrat or Republican and just differ from their party on a couple issues.

*Edited my language to be a little fairer about that second group

Maybe no one should see it?

There's pretty widely documented evidence that slaughterhouse work is also harmful to mental health.

If French troops were sent into Ukraine and were then hit by Russia, would that then trigger NATO agreements?

Article 6 says:

"For the purpose of Article 5, an armed attack on one or more of the Parties is deemed to include an armed attack:

on the territory of any of the Parties in Europe or North America, on the Algerian Departments of France 2, on the territory of Turkey or on the Islands under the jurisdiction of any of the Parties in the North Atlantic area north of the Tropic of Cancer; on the forces, vessels, or aircraft of any of the Parties, when in or over these territories or any other area in Europe in which occupation forces of any of the Parties were stationed on the date when the Treaty entered into force or the Mediterranean Sea or the North Atlantic area north of the Tropic of Cancer."

Aware this might be a situation where the spirit of the agreement ends up being more important than the legalese.

The problem with the Senate is that it gives land more power than people. The weight given to a Senate voter in a less populated state like Montana is like 40x that of a voter in a state like California. Abolishing the Senate would move the power of each voter closer to equality. Anti-gerrymandering measures would get you the rest of the way there.

I think taxes on financial shenanigans like carried interest, inheritance, and capital gains would probably be more effective than taxing luxury goods. Most rich people don't actually spend the majority of their money on physical things. Mostly they just shuffle it around into various instruments to avoid taxes and maximize returns.

Nah, it'll find food no problem. The legal liabilities are the real kicker.

The community's called work reform.
