Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden. None of these nations have an minimim hourly wage enshrined in law. Instead many of the base terms of employment, including wages, are decided via collective bargaining between sector trade unions and representatives of public sector and business interest organizations.
Explanation:
The crime rate statistic shows the number of registered crimes divided by the number of registered residents in a country or area.
“Registered” is important here!
Unchained at Last is a nonprofit organization advocating against marriage under 18 in the US. For anyone wanting to keep up with the US’ progress (it’s been slow these last couple years) or possible regressions in your state/territory (if you live here; hi!), they maintain the best resource there is. It not only lists the current status but also the legislative status per-state/territory (e.g. if a relevant bill is in the legislature and details about it).
If you’re assigned something to read, read it aloud to yourself. This engages not just the internal monologue part of your brain, but speaking and hearing parts, and your brain makes stronger pathways when more senses are engaged and working together.
There are other ways it celebrates like the main page (which you should check out), but I think you’re less likely to know about the deletion discussions.
One about killed a woman by not identifying her pregnancy is ectopic. Many anti abortion folks are convinced that even ectopic pregnancies can be viable.
I think after Artemis 3 they are supposed to have regular annual trips or something happening to the moon.
Their window opens on April first but it could be later if they have issues.
Here are some NASA livestream links
If you go to uBlock Origin’s settings and then select ‘Filter lists’, there’s a list maintained by EasyList and another by AdGuard that both block cookie notices. To my understanding, this isn’t enabled by default (at least it wasn’t when I installed uBO).
If you have assets in a bank, stock market, investment platform, 401(k) or other pension then there are a number of risks that threaten not only the existence of those funds but your access to them.
At least 347 and up to 504 civilians, almost all women, children and elderly men, were murdered by U.S. Army soldiers. Some of the women were gang-raped and their bodies mutilated, and some soldiers mutilated and raped children as young as 12.
Be it a deadbeat parent with more than enough funds to help their children or spouses making use of their significant other’s dependency on them, economic abuse pervades life and remains a blindspot.
Very soon after the program started, due to the emergence of the Cold War, the western powers and the United States in particular began to lose interest in the program, somewhat mirroring the Reverse Course in American-occupied Japan. Denazification was carried out in an increasingly lenient and lukewarm way until being officially abolished in 1951. The American government soon came to view the program as ineffective and counterproductive. Additionally, the program was highly unpopular in West Germany, where many Nazis maintained positions of power. Denazification was opposed by the new West German government of Konrad Adenauer, who declared that ending the process was necessary for West German rearmament.
Why YSK: The English Wikipedia’s front page (the “main page") offers a surprisingly diverse, compact, and accessible way to find an interesting topic you might not have heard of before. This assumes you’re a reader only and don’t care about editing.
I’m sure you’ve seen it if you subscribe to satellite TV, or if you watch local channels (either over the air, or if you follow them on social media, or get your news at their website).
I saw some posts about american wanting to move to Europe; so just before you guys make the move, double-triple check insurances/banks, because literally every time I (not american) do smth financially related in France, they ask me if I am american? If yes, they won’t even open accounts/ give me insurance etc.. Sounds discriminatory but apperently because legal

The idea of the lizard brain first emerged and rose to popularity in the 1960s and 1970s, based on comparative anatomical studies. Parts of the mammalian brain, neuroscientist Paul MacLean noticed, were very similar to parts of the reptilian brain. This led him to the conclusion that the brain had evolved in stages, after life moved to land.
You should know this because one of the reasons Trump’s been trying to use to justify this war is that Iran never said they wouldn’t pursue nuclear weapons.
It’s called Evil Autism, because it’s a space based on the old subreddit that was so fun back in the day. Please join and help make this new space feel like another safe space for those of who are ND. I hope to see you there!
Yesterday while cooking I set off the smoke detector, no I did not burn anything. They go off when I cook over a high heat. And yesterday once they started going off they would not stop. I ended up having to disconnect them all (they are hard wired with an interconnect) and I replaced them this morning. Aaaaaaaand let me tell you, I had a sleepless night last night knowing there were no detectors installed.
The simple math of the Yard-Sale Model shows that if everybody started out with equal money in a fair economy, the outcome tends toward one person holding all of the money. The cool graphical simulations on this page demonstrate why.
Diagram illustrating various phases of the Moon in their order of appearance starting from the New Moon and progressing through Crescent, First Quarter, and Gibbous to reach the Full Moon. It is followed by Gibbous, Last Quarter and Crescent to complete full circle at the New Moon again.
Yeah that’s right. For a whopping one time purchase of 250$, you get a lifetime license for a @linux.com domain as an email alias/forwarding only. You cannot send emails from this. You can contact support to check if the alias you want is available too.
Why YSK: Most hospitals send a summary bill (for example pharmacy: $5,000) hoping you’ll panic and just pay it. These are usually full of errors or huge markups. Before you pay anything, call the billing department and ask for an itemized bill with CPT codes. This will not only force a human to review it, but it also gives you the ability to spot BS. I tried this last year and the bill dropped by about 30% literally just because I asked, so don’t let them rip you off.
The classes are filmed and feature MIT Professors and MIT Students. The content is posted online. The only downside is you need to download/buy/borrow the books.
Why YSK: Even if you don’t own a gun, there is a chance you can encounter one at the home of a friend or family member. These are the four core rules of gun safety, but the same can be used with airsoft/paintball guns, nerf or even chemical spray bottles!
DDG has a noAI portal that filters out AI images and doesn’t bother you with summations and things. it’s available at noai.duckduckgo.com and you can add it as a separate search engine to Firefox thusly.
For fellow Americans living in cities where ICE is active, many people, especially those of Hispanic descent, are already carrying around passports on their persons at all times because they’re rightfully afraid of being forcibly disappeared or deported to some random South American country.
Never take health advice from individuals such as Jordan Peterson, Joe Rogan, PewDiePie, Elon Musk, Doctor Oz, Doctor Huberman, Bill Gates, JD Vance, Barack Obama, Jensen Huang, Hassan Abi…
Why YSK: if you don’t have the ability or time to devote your visual attention to reading, you can still engage your mind the same way as you do while reading by listening to an audiobook. Virtually any modern audiobook player will also let you select the play speed, so you can listen to books at whatever rate you’re comfortable with.
Disclaimer: I have posted this originally in YSK, but as someone has kindly let me know, this should remain in the same state. I believe the original post on the web, where I got this link from, said that they are having trouble selling in person. So perhaps online purchases would be nice.
The impact that wiped out the dinosaurs also wiped out all songbirds, except for in (ark) Australia. Australian songbirds then spread out to rest of the planet.
By “Erik Prince”, I mean belligerently and dramatically overreact to an attack — actual, perceived, provoked, planted, or otherwise. They could do what Blackwater did in Fallujah in 2004. Or, in Nisoor Square in 2007. Or, in Kabul in 2009.
TLDR: Hobo Johnson did a musical rendition of some select quotes from the article. If the article is too cumbersome to read, listen to the song. It gets a lot of the point across.
