Nah, looks about right and empty

But what are the benefits of a wireless mouse? You don't have to string the cable from the back of your PC to the mousepad, sure, but that's something you do once a blue moon (unless you often go to LAN partys (which, in itself, are probably not a thing anymore)). At work, okay, I sometimes get up off my chair and have my company-provided wireless mouse on my leg to keep scrolling while I read through legal documents, but that's a rare use case, too, no?

Alright, so what makes this special is the fact that it comes from America's biggest medical authority (from my understanding of the CDC's role)?

"Don't use Wikipedia as a source."

Man, if I want to get a pretty good overview on almost anything, Wikipedia is the best and most accessible way. Luckily, the consensus seems to slowly change to a cautious "Don't use Wikipedia as your only source, especially on controversial topics."

Wait, what do you mean doctors haven't received guidance on the pain relief options before? I would've assumed it's standard practice for any potentially painful procedure to be carefully reviewed and then have guides written about them (and revised with major breakthroughs in knowledge or technology), specifically so that doctors don't have to guess what the best course of action is. And with something as relatively common as IUD, I'd assume there are more than enough female doctors having one who can vouch for them being sometimes painful enough to warrant bigger anesthetics than just an ibuprofen.

German (native), English (not native-level but compared to my work colleagues I might as well be lol) and some American Sign Language (I can carry a simple conversation as long as I may fingerspell words I don't know yet/anymore)

I absolutely get where you're coming from, but to be fair Team Fortress is basically a hero shooter as well, except that there can be multiples of the same "hero" on the battlefield at the same time. Or - and I'm genuinely asking because I haven't played "hero shooters" in that long - am I missing a core distinction of hero shooters?

Right? I'm sure there are memes like that about humans when they just stupidly stare at an oncoming wormhole expansion shuttle.

Understandable, but I would say the entire set would include genders and gender variations that haven't been seen in the wild yet.

Similar to how you don't need to write down all the possible numbers between 0 and 1 to know that they do exist.

By whom and why would the sites get DDOSed if they didn't use Cloudflare? Am I wrong to assume that internet traffic is just as trackable for the internet provider if the server traffic first visits Cloudflare vs just using whatever the provider...uhhh...provides?

Mind you, while I can follow a logical argument, most stuff concerning networks like the internet still feels like magic to me for the most part. We use Cloudflare because, after reading up on it a little bit, I got the notion that it would likely improve our connection speed and especially the loading speed of my gf's webtoon sites. But that's about the extent of my knowledge.

Maybe we should acknowledge that neither North Korea nor the USA are without fault and that in some aspects they are similar enough that they would be confused with each other in a blind test.

The main difference for the vast majority here is that public outrage and votes in elections for their respective governments won't change a thing in North Korea.

If you haven't seen it yet, check out Fight Club. Rewatched it a couple days ago because my gf didn't know anything about it except the meme of "First Rule of Fight Club..." and I had last seen it possibly 20 years ago.
