95% is the lower limit of being fine.
80% is “You should go to a hospital. No, I mean by ambulance”
- Comment on it's just science, i guess 2 weeks ago:
Easy to state but do you have any proof of the connection?
How about the abstract of the paper, which mentions “association” three times and “cause” zero times.

Also, I would LOVE to buy stuff not wrapped in plastic, but it doesn’t exist. There are no glass bottles of milk anymore, no soy-butcher

Yes, but I already have all the diseases that I have. I don’t need to add all the diseases everyone else has too, or vice versa.

Ah, it’s Muslim belief that the original Quran is sacred and a work of god, but a translation is made by humans, and is thus not the truly correct version and only an interpretation.
Its not that you can’t read a version of text in another language, but it won’t be the sacred text.
- Comment on language learning 4 weeks ago:
Yes, but Muslims are rather particular about translated versions not reeeeaaally counting.

How readable is the Quran in modern Arabic? Or is it translated?

Using lasers to track earth curvature across a big lake for example, absolutely fascinating to see why it doesnt work as you may expect.
Why would it not work as I expect? I’m expecting some beam decoherence, and possible deflecting due to temperature differences over a cold lake.

Only a rich crackpot could distribute pamphlets claiming colloidal silver cures cancer, and then they’d still only reach people in walking distance.
Now, any moron can reach literally the entire world at no cost or effort.

Your larynx isn’t really a limb… But nah, its an evolutionary artefact. In primordial fish it’s a straight line, but then the head moves, a neck forms, etc etc. and the nerve can’t detach and move over, so it gets longer wnd weirder.

And it does that for both humans… And giraffes.
