Again, you have to manufacture and assemble all the components for the machine to work.

The reason only one company in the world can do it is not because it is easy. If it where easy other companies would be able to imitate it, but they cant. This is why ASML has a profit margin of 50%. This is why companies order these machines years in advance.

There are and have been many companies that have built airplanes. There is one company and one alone that can build these machines. I happen to work at said company and it is a long time ago that I have seen someone so confidently wrong on the internet.

How are you so confidently wrong so often?

Wonder if you have ever heard of ASML before reading this news article. Just stop it.

seper8··on Omega-3s: Are “Brain-Boosting” Effects Scientifically Backed?
Even that balanced diet will consist of less and less minerals and vitamins as time goes on and growers optimize for vegetable, fruit VOLUME instead of vitamin/mineral contents.

>>>

The level of decline varied depending on the specific nutrients and the type of fruit or vegetable, but it generally ranged from 6 percent for protein to 38 percent for riboflavin. In particular, calcium dropped most dramatically in broccoli, kale, and mustard greens, while the iron content took a substantial hit in chard, cucumbers, and turnip greens. Asparagus, collard greens, mustard greens, and turnip greens lost considerable amounts of vitamin C.

Further studies since then have backed up the case that nutrient levels are dissipating. Research in the January 2022 issue of the journal Foods found that while most vegetables grown in Australia had relatively similar iron content between 1980 and 2010, there were noteworthy drops in certain veggies. Declines in iron content, ranging from 30 to 50 percent, occurred for sweet corn, red-skinned potatoes, cauliflower, green beans, green peas, and chickpeas. By contrast, Hass avocados, mushrooms, and silverbeet (another name for chard) actually gained in iron.

Grains have also experienced declines, experts say. A study in a 2020 issue of Scientific Reports found that protein content in wheat decreased by 23 percent from 1955 to 2016, and there were notable reductions in manganese, iron, zinc, and magnesium, as well.

Did a "modern government" create this terminal or did a public company "simply" respond to market demand or other incentives like subsidies?

seper8··on Investigation on the effect of oral breathing on cognitive activity (2021)
My girlfriend had jaw issues and was recommended this after a surgery by her doctor. I decided to give it a try aswell as I had heard about the potential benefits. Used to wake up with a terrible dryness and taste in my mouth. Doesnt happen anymore now. Strangely enough my dreams got more vivid. Also, eventually it became like such a ritual that I would feel like something was missing if I didn't tape up. It started to feel snug, like a weighted blanket.

Used to have a chronically stuffy nose at night, maybe due to allergies. Probably thats when the bad habit started.

I guess a chin strap would work aswell.
