Not sure how to feel about this:

China is already the world’s leading power in some scientific fields of research, the United States is hurtling toward an unprecedented decline in this area, and Europe is realizing that, if it wants to continue conducting world-class research, it will have to cooperate much more with the unstoppable Asian giant, even if that means swallowing its political prejudices.

I can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic or not.

Hmmm… None of the above: it’s a component of a mixture?

One term is “techno-thriller”. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Techno-thriller

I think a lot of times that’s just lack of familiarity bc the better restaurants are newer.

There is good Latino food in the midwest and northeast now. Just look for smaller restaurants, or food trucks.

Whenever I read a statement like this, my BS detector fires up.

A 2014 study in the European Journal of Preventive Cardiology found that test subjects who showed difficulty getting up off the floor without support of hands, or an elbow, or leg (what’s called the “sitting-rising test”) resulted in a three-year-shorter life expectancy than subjects who got up with ease.

I did a bit of judo and they made us get up without support. At first it was very difficult but after a bit it was pretty easy. I encourage you to try it, it’s a good skill to have. (besides adding 3 years on your life, allegedly?)

a higher incidence of knee and osteoarthritis issues.

Anecdotes are about as reliable as gurus, but anecdotally I find that there’s bad squatting and good squatting. e.g. keeping knees and feet pointed out as in Sumo, is much easier on my knees than keeping knees and feet pointed forward as in Shotokan.

They are “journalism vegans”. They are choosing to abstain from actual journalism for clickbaiting, herd mentality, and personal lack of skill reasons.

I heard there’s an asteroid with a rose on it that might be available.

That’s Canada.

This should be in the running for worst movie ever made.

It probably will be. It’s currently holding at 0% from 12 critics on rottentomatoes.
