Joke is going over my head can you explain?

It is, eg lidocaine patches. It has to be injected to really do much. Not aware of any injectables that are over the counter.

The betting odds are 96% that they’ll debate. No need to sell a bridge, you stand to gain 25 to 1 if theres no debate. You are way off what the market predicts.

Taiwan next!

Nope just ran it did exactly as I said.

Finding a SHA-512 hash with 12 leading zeros is computationally intensive and typically involves a process known as “proof of work” where many hashes are computed until one with the desired property is found. Here’s an example Python script that performs this task:

import hashlib
import itertools

def find_hash_with_leading_zeros(prefix, leading_zeros=12):
    target = '0' * leading_zeros
    for nonce in itertools.count():
        text = prefix + str(nonce)
        hash_result = hashlib.sha512(text.encode()).hexdigest()
        if hash_result.startswith(target):
            return text, hash_result

prefix = "your_prefix_here"
result_text, result_hash = find_hash_with_leading_zeros(prefix)
print(f"Text: {result_text}")
print(f"SHA-512 Hash: {result_hash}")

In this script:

• The find_hash_with_leading_zeros function generates a hash for a string consisting of a prefix and a nonce.
• It iterates through nonces (starting from 0) until it finds a hash with the specified number of leading zeros.
• Adjust the prefix variable to a string of your choice.

This process can take a long time because it requires computing many hashes until the condition is met.

Would you like to run this script, or do you need further assistance with something specific?

They don’t understand but they are way better than youre making them out to be. I’m pretty sure chatgpt would give you the python code for this task, run it and then time out.

That’s by intentional design choice though.

This may be helpful from a cost / gram of protein but its a bit misleading on the grams protein/ 100 g axis for beans - those are the dry bean numbers.

Game theory is a tough subject, but it would be worth it for you to study to understand how you are acting against your less preferred candidate and helping what should be your least preferred candidate (assuming your ranked choice has the republican nominee below the democratic nominee).

Keep voting for 99% … gets us to the same place

You make it seem as though your protest vote does not also get us to the same place? Many voters have shared your mentality and voted accordingly for the past 200+ years and it’s not made a difference, what makes you think this time things will change?

Looks like it just matches long term inflation, beats 2023 inflation. Win for workers.

During the observation period from 1960 to 2022, the average inflation rate was 19.0% per year. Overall, the price increase was 1.36 million percent. An item that cost 100 pesos in 1960 costs 1.36 million pesos at the beginning of 2023. For October 2023, the year-over-year inflation rate was 4.3%.

You have details about her case you’d care to share?

“unable to exercise its sovereignty” is falling a bit short so if you’ll allow me to put words in your mouth:

Palestine is not a sovereign state.

• barrbaric

I think most of the hex bear posters in this thread would not make this statement so kudos to you for being consistent, we agree to disagree on the meaning of sovereign and whether Taiwan and Palestine meet that mark.

The dispute at this point is over how we define a country, especially because Taiwan clearly falls in a grey area within that definition. I claim that they are fundamentally unable to exercise their sovereignty given they aren’t formally recognized as a country by even their greatest allies and benefactors, thus they fail. You claim that they can fulfill the roles of the state, have a national identity, and have various semantic work-arounds for that fundamental illegitimacy, thus they pass.

I am willing to agree with you (albeit with some rephrasing there) if you were at least consistent. So, do you consider Palestine to be sovereign or not. I consider them sovereign. I am consistent. For you to be consistent in your views would require you to view Palestine to lack sovereignty. Mind you China recognizes Palestine as sovereign. If you say yes they have sovereignty then it demonstrates you’re just trying to bring politics into semantics which in truth is what’s going on in this whole thread. A political faction is attempting to coop the language to suit their narrative whether it requires logical consistency or not.

So crimes of our fathers then, Americans deserve to die. Pardon me, I don’t find this discussion constructive. May your keyboard warrior spirit never falter, good luck.

I commend you for recognizing to dispute the sovereignty of Taiwan it helps to start with a definition. Unfortunately for you the definition you provided is vague and at ends with more formal definitions. I’ll reference you to the indisputable democratic source of knowledge wikipedia (feel free to edit the page if you it can be improved):

Sovereignty can generally be defined as supreme authority.[1] Sovereignty entails hierarchy within the state, as well as external autonomy for states.[2] In any state, sovereignty is assigned to the person, body or institution that has the ultimate authority over other people in order to establish a law or change existing laws.

The PRC and the USA do not pass and enforce laws in Taiwan. The Taiwan government, elected by the people of Taiwan does. They are self sovereign.

You’ve brought a lot of good points which I ought to go through in detail, but briefly: Vietnam great analysis but different country. Military - is Japan sovereign based on reliance on US? Are there only a handful of actually sovereign states (the superpowes) in your schema? Regarding not provoking PRC no shit they don’t want to get slaughtered. As has been pointed out they have organizations and relationships that are de facto diplomatic if they are not called that because of the gun to their head.

Curious, what’s your stance on Palestine’s sovereignty? I think they can be considered sovereign, I don’t see that spectre of other powers potential influence as taking that away.
