There are plenty of foods that can give you the necessary vitamins. Eat some veggies and a reasonable amount of real beef/chicken or other fatty foods and balance it out in your diet with good amounts of other vegetables and fruits so it will be taken up by your body. Drink some wine and beer while you're at it too, within reason, you can get all this food and more within 15 minutes for a family of 4 with less what you'll spend for a single person at McDonalds.
Taking vitamin supplements is generally a waste since you're taking in more than your body needs, so most of it is simply excreted and your body needs other chemicals to even absorb them properly.
You're adding 100s of dollars in overall cost to manufacture a "repairable" machine while 99% of us don't really care. You're talking access hatches, extra electronics and larger/heavier plastic stuff, more screws just so 1 in 100 people can tinker with it, and half of those actually screw it up during "repairs" making the repair irrelevant or more expensive.
When I was young, I loved to repair stuff, nowadays, I just want it to work, I actually pay extra for on-site replacement on the server hardware. Sure, I can replace a hard drive, but for $180 Apple will do it free of charge and come on-site for the next 3 years. I don't have to worry about screwing up, spending an hour reading up on the various parts and disassembly procedures (if they're even available) and then waiting for days for replacement parts.
How many times have you actually repaired a washing machine? Ever even opened one? There isn't much to it these days, a circuit board and a motor. Replacing any of those costs more than the cost of a new machine in shipping alone, and that's if you get the motor off the pulley without damaging anything. Same goes for the iPhone, after 3-4 years when your battery actually is low enough to be bothersome, your iPhone is worth $50. You want to sink in $50-100 for a repair to extend the lifetime what, a year, maybe two which is exactly the amortized cost of the device.
The OS throttling follows the battery chip so replacing the battery correctly should reset that back. So if the chip says the battery is degraded, it slows down to keep the phone going longer.
I remember Walmart tried this a few years ago (perhaps a decade or so) when RFID tags became prevalent. Between the cost of the RFID tags and system and the losses due to the amount of stuff that wasn't correctly scanned, they stopped doing that really fast.
These days there are plenty of options. There are "laser" printers (these days it's just LED) and there are a few Xerox wax printers. They run forever, have really cheap toner ($20/5000 pages for off-brand cartridges), often networked and really high quality prints both in text and photos. For the occasion you still want a printed photo, go to your local Walmart or any number of online printing services.
All-in-all though, I don't print very much anymore. I print perhaps some coloring pages for the kids and the odd document that I will need to present for legal reasons. I actually haven't connected my printer for about a year now.
The thing costs millions per year to maintain and all Obama did with it was âoesorry we canâ(TM)t do thatâ to pretty much any petition. Itâ(TM)s been a waste of money since itâ(TM)s inception and was a poor attempt to get some re-election PR.
You probably see both but frequency dips first. If one generator goes offline in a group of generators, the others get more "demand', in order to keep up the same voltage, with more current draw they are slowed down similar to how putting more load on a gas engine will slow it's RPM down.
If they can't keep up, you would see a dip in voltage as well (a brown out) however it seems the battery packs kicked in before the generators dropped voltage.
When I was young, telegrams were used for "instant" communication regards legal matters.
It had guaranteed delivery, proof when it was sent and a chain of custody similar to "registered mail" in the US, I don't know of any products in the EU/Belgium that have similar guarantees, hence the need for telegrams.
Another poster already pointed to an article that Uranium One was able to export US uranium by piggy-backing on another export license soon after the Russians started controlling it. Just because CNN says they didn't know or it didn't happen doesn't make it true.
Youâ(TM)d be surprised how much stuff runs held together by userland and init scripts after bog standard kernels boot.
As much as we try to glorify the best of the best engineers with technologies and possibilities that computers can provide, the majority of systems donâ(TM)t actually put it together that way.
I work with medical equipment. Iâ(TM)ve put in vendor plugins for RT processing of radiation dosage calculations that are a combination of bash, Python and Docker running the interface on an ancient Firefox connected via an X11 over SSH session.
Cars arenâ(TM)t any better. Itâ(TM)s weird sometimes that these things make it through any sort of QA.
The repeal only restored previous legislation, you know where communications providers were common carriers and couldnâ(TM)t screw with connections at all or couldnâ(TM)t reform into a monopoly.
We had a working Internet that drove bubbles and had plenty of startups all with existing legislation. Since Obamaâ(TM)s âoenon-Neutralityâ all we had is a return of Ma Bell now called Spectrum.
The false positive is a lot lower to the point of being better than humans. Tip lines get a bunch of calls and are primarily false positives, the only way tip lines help is by using humans to further narrow down the false positives to likely positives and correlate with other data such as crime scenes, personal information and confirmed sightings.
... and thatâ(TM)s a problem how? Jaywalking is a safety issue and if you hit that person with your car you would be liable, maybe even criminally charged since heâ(TM)s a pedestrian.
If you donâ(TM)t want to get scrutinized by police, donâ(TM)t do anything obviously stupid in front of them.
These days games are just boilerplate code that connects to the Internet for additional assets and the core gameplay even. Itâ(TM)s not DRM but it effectively limits your ability to play if you donâ(TM)t have a connection. Theyâ(TM)re also cheap and available enough that most donâ(TM)t have to bother with DRM anymore so for games the market has resolved the situation.
The same is becoming true of video, my time these days is now evenly shared between my Netflix backlog and YouTube/Twitch/... I find the content better and more engaging. I actually never had cable TV in my entire life and Iâ(TM)m not even a millennial so I think that the younger generation will completely kill the need for DRM.
So, it makes no sense these days to crack games or videos anymore. The better games have no DRM already and the market is flooded with them. If your game doesnâ(TM)t run due to a DRM issue, people will simply return the game on Steam/Amazon/Play Store etc and get another game, developers canâ(TM)t risk losing that much in the current market and video is closely following that pace.
If you have to replace the engines, fuel system and tanks and all the heat tiles on the exterior, can you still call it recycled? At what point is it just a new rocket?
It would be neat if this were just a refueled rocket but this is practically completely rebuilt, not actually recycled (as in using old/used parts to build the rocket).
Still props for not having to dump it into the seas or burning it up in the atmosphere.
The Russians have about as much evidence for their 2012 election meddling than the US does for their 2016 election. Keeping myself informed: I read CNN, Fox, BBC, Al-Jazeera, Wikipedia and Google News.
The 2012 Russian elections aren't recent enough for you? But the above instance is well documented but according to studies, talked about in the same Wikipedia article, the US is actually more involved in foreign elections than Russia, both do it covertly so you won't hear anything official until well after a "victory" like the Russian elections of 20 years ago.
If you need scripting in your spreadsheet youâ(TM)re better off using plain Python or R. Doing an ANOVA in 32000 rows and 20000 columns on Excel is wrong and makes people that support those people cry.
Nope, Federally they only have to verify Schedule II medications, at the State level I'm not sure. Schedule II is the stuff you see Dr. House swallowing like candy - Oxy, Percocet, Vicodin etc.
Most 'honorable' pharmacies will verify things if it seems off but as long as they can justify that they acted in good faith, they aren't by law required to do so.
You don't need a doctor to get "prescription" eyewear. They have a machine these days that allow any minimum wage optometrist technician to get the data required and fill out the "prescription". If you had an extra $100k somewhere, you could easily get a machine yourself and write your own prescriptions.
I haven't payed for an optometrist even in the US in about a decade. I go to the glasses-store, they measure my eyes and then I get the stuff I need. Insurance picks up ~$150 of the cost (thanks to ObamaCare my "gold rate insurance" no longer covers the entire purchase as they did before), hell, even Wal-Mart has them and there is no MD in sight (there is on the panel but only by appointment).

And then Hillary conveniently got several millions in a âoedonationâ from the same Russians that just bought the mine.
If you control the mine, you can control who gets the product. The fact that the entire administration cooperated should indicate something to you.
