I thought this topic would be how different programs render ASCII characters into images of the letters, but then I realized that’s just what fonts are.

This is ASCII characters being used to render images. We used to do this on old mechanical typewriters as an enrichment activity in typing class.

Congratulations on getting to finally boink your wife after 34 years.

Then a new player will become dominant in the industry.

Specifically on milkshakes? If it’s on everything it pretty much looks and acts like inflation anyway.

A $5.00 milkshake in the middle of 1993, when the movie was shot, would cost $11.22 today if it went up at the same rate as the CPI.

There’s always been inflation. It was relatively low until CoVID, then it jumped for a short while.

I’d watch that video series.

ITT, people who don’t want their healthy petroleum-based asphalt soiled with unhealthy petroleum-based plastics.

I’m keeping spelling corrections for the whole thread to a single comment to resuce clutter.

People with more money than me are rich, and those with less money are poor. It’s like how people that drive faster than me are maniacs, amd those who drive slower than me are idiots.

Does the word need to convey “Passenger 57” and “MacGillicuddy” too?

I still do from time to time, but they are about the slowest way to drink. If you’re very thirsty, you need to stay there for ages. I don’t think I’ve ever quenched a thirst at a drinking fountain. More like got a little more water to survive a bit longer.

Fair. It gives the consumer a better choice than bottled or in-home filtered vs tap water does.

It also dispels the idea that European countries consider fluoride supplementation unsafe, which is implied by the OP.

Has anyone measured the level of fluoride already in your water?

Germany adds fluoride to table salt. The US does not do that. We do add iodide or iodate to salt for goiter prevention.

Different delivery methods for fluoride, same goals.

There’s regular controversy around the age of the earth, the shape of the earth, and whether astronauts have ever been on the moon.

The Harvard article mostly talks about whether fluoride helps adults. The safety concerns are mostly about fluorosis. That has very specific symptoms on the teeth themselves, and if you see it you should be investigating whether someone is swallowing lots of toothpaste first.

You will see a lot of crappy medical science touted by universities. Many of their hospitals offer “alternative and complementary” medical treatments because people are willing to pay for them. Scientific consensus from experts and what you can find some kook supporting are not the same thing.

The neurotoxicity study from Mullenix doesn’t have teeth (pun intended), and the people who keep touting it 30 years later might as well be flat earthers.

I was expecting “precious bodily fluids” to appear sooner, but otherwise I was onto it from the start.
