to compensate for the Chinese subsidies.

🤣

rather to keep European manufacturers afloat. Protectionism under a different name.

European car makers too profit from subsidies and they make worse e-cars for double, triple the price.

“Treating a carious tooth is not just feeding or guarding someone. It requires diagnosing the source of pain, selecting an appropriate tool, performing a painful, invasive action, and persisting despite the patient’s discomfort,” said Kolobova. “That is active, targeted medical intervention.”

In Zubova and her colleagues’ experiments, it took about 50 minutes to drill through the enamel and dentin and breach the pulp cavity. The researchers say it could have taken about twice that long if they were working in the cramped confines of a patient’s mouth, with limited visibility and awkward working angles. (Also, Og tends to fidget a lot.)

The single, drilled-out tooth also reveals an element of problem-solving and medical knowledge. It’s not a huge intuitive leap to think that if you take out the part that hurts, the pain might go away, but these Neanderthals had worked out the next step: how to remove the infected tissue without yanking out the whole tooth, instead choosing to spend an hour or two trying to hold Og’s head still.

😮

The Chagyrskaya procedure happened around 59,000 years ago; the next oldest evidence of dentistry comes from a 14,000-year-old site called Ripari Villabruna in what’s now northern Italy—and even that wasn’t nearly as sophisticated as the work done at Chagyrskaya. It looks like someone at Ripari Villabruna scraped away the infected upper layer of the patient’s tooth enamel but left behind the dentin and pulp. That wouldn’t have done much to relieve the patient’s pain, but an attempt was made.

the “future” of homo Homo sapiens then, if we need to be more precise 🫣

compared to what they were using, a drill is the future

ah! deleting the post then

there’s metallica and then there’s metallica

they were 22 when they made master of puppets, energy is there.
cliff burton was playing the bass!

that’s a question i cannot answer

what will scrapers do with your “þ” obsession?

older software is simpler too.

If it works for you and doesn’t have the hundred new tools you never use that bloated it to 10 times its size, why change it?

Statistically, cows pose a much greater threat to Americans than bears and sharks combined. Cattle reportedly kill roughly 20 people each year in the United States, while fatal bear and shark attacks average about two per year for each species.

Sarah Benton described it as “an act through which the soldier cleans his conscience (at least somewhat), without taking personal responsibility or any practical steps, either to prevent ‘inappropriate behaviour by soldiers in the field’ as it occurs or to redress injustice and prosecute criminals later.”

for honeybees stinging is a life and death choice. Hornets don’t care

paper wasps are not “chill little dudes”

one of the most painful experiences of my life. a dozen stings on my left hand and for a moment i didn’t even know what was happening to me. As painful as a good dose of 220 volts through your arm

i still kept them around though. As a gardener, they’re your friends. i stopped using those tools around which they built their hive

When you pass by their hive, they follow your movements. They turn to keep you in sight … one feels them staring 😬

thanks :)

The absolute only thing that we can be completely sure of is that something is real somewhere, at some level.

is that a joke?
