no, "Trump's" And "Project 2025" are the modifiers for "ghostwriters", it is not referring to "Trump's project 2025" but rather "Trump's ghostwriters".

what was the source of fructose used in the study? it doesn't say
defensem3ch··on One liter of bottled water found to contain 240k plastic fragments
from an article cited in another comment: "The mere presence of objects this size is potentially disruptive to the body, because even if they are chemically inert, they are small enough to get into and disrupt cells, rather like sand in an engine."
defensem3ch··on One liter of bottled water found to contain 240k plastic fragments
inert to what? your body has to deal with processing all kinds of toxic crap in our environment especially when you ingest it or breathe it in. the amount of people in denial or just now realizing plastic is toxic to humans and animals is mind-boggling. phthalates (in almost all plastics) and BPA (not just BPA but all bisphenols) have been known for years to be endocrine disrupting. the news about plastic and health effects is only going to get worse.
defensem3ch··on In 2024, please switch to Firefox
yes, i use firefox too and i love it. however i recently learned vivaldi has tab tiling and it's WAY better for me to use at work because i can see multiple tabs at once. wish firefox could implement this feature too
defensem3ch··on Google confirms they will disable uBlock Origin in Chrome in 2024
surprised to see a lack of support for vivaldi. i am a Firefox user and i love it, but vivaldi is also pretty good

completely agree with this and your previous comment
defensem3ch··on Bintracker: A chiptune audio workstation for the 21st century
renoise very much takes influence from modern daws, supports vst plugins and its own native effects and uses high quality samples. it's also full-fledged with tons of features, it's like the ableton live of trackers. bintracker is much more barebones and is still in pre-alpha, and it is primarily aimed to produce chiptune faithful to hardware.

wait until they find out about trans fats!

defensem3ch··on Most plastic products release estrogenic chemicals (2011)
is it really news that all plastics are toxic? this has been well known for decades. sorry if some of us are just finding this out now.
defensem3ch··on Vit D supplementation and major cardiovascular events: D-Health randomised trial
the dosing was 60,000 IU per month? that's only 2000 IU per day - most vitamin D dosing for effective results i've seen needs to be 10,000 IU per day, implying that they are drastically under-dosing the participants. and i agree with the other commenters who say vitamin K is necessary for proper absorption, and also that vitamin D from sunlight is more effective. so imho more studies should be done with a 10,000 IU daily dose.
defensem3ch··on Plastics are poisoning us
it's cheap and easy to build a DIY infrared heat lamp sauna for detox so you can sweat out the bisphenols and phthalates!
defensem3ch··on Low Carb Intake Linked to Insulin Resistance
they didn't equate protein and the data was self-reported, so take this with a grain of salt.
defensem3ch··on Today's 5-year-olds will likely live to 100
the missing piece is all the toxins accumulating and causing disease. most doctors have absolutely zero idea what is going on
defensem3ch··on Today's 5-year-olds will likely live to 100
definitely not. our environment is so polluted that chronic illness is running rampant and the doctors have zero clue what is going on

defensem3ch··on FreeTube – A Private YouTube Client
I tried using this on my PC but it instantly brought up a dialog when trying to use Youtube (even SmartTubeNext on my nVIDIA Shield) asking me to confirm I'm not a robot. It persisted for several hours until after I stopped using FreeTube. Any workarounds for this issue?

defensem3ch··on Reversing Lens-Induced Myopia (2018)
no, it doesn't, because astigmatism is caused by wearing the glasses in the first place. read the PDF linked in the article.
defensem3ch··on Reversing Lens-Induced Myopia (2018)
yes, it's in the PDF linked in the article, from 2014.
defensem3ch··on You're Not Losing Fat Because You're Eating Too Damn Much (2016)
this article sucks. because of widespread issues like hypothyroidism that aren't routinely screened for (in some cases yes but i don't think this is largely the case), there are serious endocrine and metabolic disruptions, so for the author to brush that off in an article that is clearly designed for people who are struggling to lose weight, it's just way off base. there should at least be footnotes for people to have their T3, T4, and TSH checked if they are struggling to lose weight at a caloric deficit.
defensem3ch··on Reversing Lens-Induced Myopia (2018)
you can substitute spherical correction for astigmatism correction. the spherical equivalent is the normal spherical value plus 50% of the cylinder. so for -3.00 sphere -1.00 cylinder 100 axis, the spherical equivalent would be -3.50 sphere (blank cylinder, blank axis).
defensem3ch··on Reversing Lens-Induced Myopia (2018)
probably not a good idea because it would introduce more problems related to convergence and accommodation, better to just let the eyes work naturally and keep better habits.
