Plus, outside of more severe cases, surgery isn't required, and if it is, one can have it done as an adult if one chooses.

A range of amphetamine compounds are approved for the treatment of ADHD.
Methamphetamine, what people generally talk about when they say meth, is not.

One to tell you fascinating things about lightbulbs, one to tell you about Big Lightbulb and why they're unravelling society, one to make asinine comments, one to actually change the bulb, and four to lurk in the shadows simply observing matters.

Many internet-goers like to give pedantry a hard time, but I just want to let you know that I love it and all the niche facts it brings.

Been on other stuff since I completed the game, ready to come back and get into some weird builds for pvp, see they've added new tet legs too!

Fermat, explain yourself now please.

I do, but rarely. Maybe every other month or so. The situations I do use it, I've been thankful that I avoided phones without a jack. I like having appropriate tools at my disposal, and bluetooth will never be universally applicable.

Ah, I missed what you were getting at before. Agreed, can't see why engineered stone should be a particular hazard if proper safety measures are being taken. Best guess is that they weren't, and this ban is simply the chosen way to stop people being harmed by the work. Just seems more performative than useful.

As someone who works making glass, I want to underline that it's silica dust that is dangerous. Your windows, drinking glasses, pyrex jugs, dinner plates, they'll all be around 40--50% silica and are absolutely safe. Silicosis is a reaction to the shape of silica particles when inhaled, the particles cause scarring in the lungs and aren't "mucused out", so they remain causing more damage over time.

I can't think of any reason to ban anything for containing silica, the problem is mitigated by wearing a mask in areas where there are airborne particles.

Thank you, it's frustrating seeing (almost) everyone call them AI. If/when actual AI comes into existence I think a lot of people are going to miss the implications as they've become used to every LLM and its grandmother being called AI.
