It blows my mind that so many questions in this community could be instantly answered by Google. Just typing “whinging” gives its definition and identifies it as British.
The question wasn’t stupid. But OP was too lazy to even try and do their own research. Which ironically resulted in more work for them.
It’s not necessarily lazy. If I want to go back to a particular post I saw on page 1 when I’m on page 2, but it was knocked off the front page, how would I find it? It’s no longer on page 1, so back would miss it. I’d have to go to 1 and then back again to 2 to find a post that moved.
It gets even more complicated when the algorithm also changes post order.
Sometimes simple with minor inconvenience is the best option.
Excellent point. My apologies.
“Those aren’t two pillows!”
“Nobody leaves this place without singin’ the blues.”
“It’s showtime!”
“That’s not a motorcycle, baby. It’s a chopper.”
"You’re a daisy if you do.’
“Mr. Blutarsky. Zero-point-zero.”"
“I want my two dollars!”
“So THAT’S how it is in their family.”
I dunno. We can manipulate entangled electrons to look like a yin yang symbol and that’s not cool?
Edit; photons. My bad.
I think the WHO has slightly more credibility than any random Lenny user.
And no, your attitude is not called for. There’s a legitimate body that had called the safety of aspartame into question. Whether it meets your standards is personal. But it’s poor form to attack others for citing credible sources (a chemistry teacher is worth following up on for chem matters, which, in this case–again–led directly to a statement by the WHO).
You have simultaneously said it’s both been studied excessively and acknowledged the WHO has said it needs more study.
Rando vs WHO. WHO wins. Aspartame may be dangerous. And, incidentally, so may working as a dry cleaner. Which seems like a good warning to put out there. Thank you angry, rude person trolling this thread.
Edit: just googled “cancer rates among dry cleaners” and wow… it seems a number of studies have demonstrated elevated cancer rates among dry cleaners. Here are a couple:
I love the discussion here as to possible reasons why the labeling is different.
That said, there’s a very good chance it’s just because the initial version had 3, got translated, then someone added a 4th item and it never got translated.
The WHO is declaring it a possible carcinogen. https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/whos-cancer-research-agency-say-aspartame-sweetener-possible-carcinogen-sources-2023-06-29/
Edit: also, telling someone they should feel bad and stupid (along with the other language you used) is a bit rough for a discussion on artificial sweeteners. Especially as OP cited the source, made it clear they had no direct knowledge of the situation, and–it turns out–a major health body has cited potential dangers.
This is a good opportunity for us to be a little more civil.
I think it’s, “but my god is the journal itself atrocious”
Don’t be too stressed. They’ve demonstrated that time arises from matter. From “outside,” our universe is like a giant book, and time is like pages. Everything that ever was or will be is there. We just can’t can’t perceive it that way since we’re trapped inside.
Nobody is recommending OP solely drink soda for hydration. The point was just that caffeine is not a real issue for hydration.
If we’re going to give safety warnings for caffeinated drinks–as though OP were unaware that caffeine over consumption is not magically avoided if you’re trying to hydrate–let’s also advise them to take reasonably sized sips so they don’t choke and to drink from clean containers so they don’t get sick.
If you’re reading this OP, virtually everything you drink is hydrating. Milk. Coffee. Soda. Juice. Tea. If you’re chugging oil-based liquids, those aren’t hydrating. But I’m guessing they aren’t a major part of your diet.
They are definitely bad for your teeth. My dentist/wife does not like how much I drink them, but since she works on me for free I don’t see a downside
I haven’t studied this either, but I think it’ll give you superpowers when the carbonic acid mixes with sunlight to create blue kryptonite.
This reads strangely to me. I’m on a controlled substance, but I can still fill my rx a few days in advance of running out. And I’ve been on others before with the same deal. Are you sure you have to wait until the day you run out?
Check out pandemic. It’s a game where everyone wins or everyone loses.
Ah yes. The game of everlasting friendship.
You blocked my road! I needed to build on that spot! I’m trapped! You’re picking me again for the baron? You do realize if you trade with them they’re going to win, right?
C. This is also on an ICU setting, with (presumably) significant treatment protocols in effect. You shouldn’t assume it applies to other situations.
A. Lowering a fever is not the same as no fever B. the study concluded taking Tylenol did not affect number of ICU days. It did not conclude that fevers are not an important part of the immune system.
I have a similar thing, but I got over it by committing to robbing every vendor of everything they have. Then there’s no one to buy the stupid fork.
