Headline is not exactly wrong, but if you read the article, hand and dish soap is not recommended because they’re not formulated as pesticides and efficacy can be hit or miss.

Thanks for the downvotes. Good to see that Lemmy doesn’t care about having reasonable conversations.

I’ll show myself out.

Undocumented visitor, so I’m assuming no visa. Was working illegally and not paying taxes.

Still received treatment instead of being deported. I feel that’s fair that he has to pay for the treatment.

No. The lump sum payment option is $600 million-ish. You would only get the $1.3 billion (pre-tax) if you take the annuity option.

Yah, pretty huge updates indeed. I remember playing it for the first time like 10 years ago when it was only a top down shooter game. I picked it up again a couple years ago and the gameplay has expanded so much. It’s pretty much become a 4X game.

Akshually, hieroglyphic writing have components that allow you to determine the pronunciation of symbols.

Emojis do not (unless they are tagged with meanings in the metadata to allow for searching, but these are typically not visible). They are more like Chinese characters in which the meaning is encoded but pronunciation is not.

You make it sound like it’s trivial to invent new drugs that are more biodegradable to replace existing ones, but it really really isn’t.

Wtf are “biodegradable meds”?

It’s more like we need to spend money figuring out better ways to treat sewage to remove substances of concern. That includes medicine but also stuff like PFAS and microplastics.
