Would only be useful for data networks on the moon. Transmission between earth and moon is a couple seconds, eternity in the digital world.

Proper Florida etiquette does require you to yell out to the gator, "see you later alligator," if you don't want to open the door.

Put data centers on the moon?
- The moon has no atmosphere, so even small particles hit the surface at huge speeds. You need to bury them.
- These centers are "environmentally friendly", because launching them is free?
- What is this supposed to protect from? An earth ending meteor? Then what's the data for if we're all dead?
- The data centers will be super far from everything, so really slow to access.
I can't see any good reason for this. But maybe that's just me.

Meh, I've had a few high-alcohol beers and to me the excessive alcohol "taste" (or whatever you want to call the alcohol sensation on the tongue and mouth) ruins the beer taste. But that's just me. Although it's not just the alcohol, because I like hard liquor.
Give me 9% or below in beer. I've had the Troegs Mad Elf (11%) and it was "ok" but I quickly tired of it. I've had a couple 12 or 13% beers that were not enjoyable at all.

Actually. Dental and medical procedures are a lot cheaper in Mexico. That's why plenty of Texans and other people go there. I myself went to get cavities and root canal done for very little compared to what I would have had to pay in the US. Plus that was 8 years ago and the work is still holding together perfectly.

Reply to comment by Rosebunse in SC woman charged after allegedly consuming abortion pills to end pregnancy by MajesticOuting
Harder to get…because abortions to save the life of the mother are relatively rare. If the life of the mother is in jeopardy, hospitals should preform the procedure, not some hole in the wall, seedy abortion clinic.
If it is not consensual, I think that is a much harder argument against abortion because the rights of the mother were violated.

What if it isn't consensual? What if the baby does pose a threat? When you take away abortion from everyone, it makes it harder for anyone to get it even if they fit your criteria for being allowed to have one.

Watermelon flavored alcohol is bad . I leaned my lesson can’t taste the booze in it and drank way too much . Nothing like being puking drunk and not being coherent

You do. I have more worth than an infant. Doesn’t mean I get to kill an infant. A fetus is a human being and should have the basic human rights granted to all humans, the most basic of those is the right to life. Unless a fetus is a grave health threat to the mother, a mother should not be able to terminate the life of a human being who was conceived by the consensual actions she engaged in to bring this human being into existence.

The title of this post makes it sound like there were four Americans who were already kidnapped, presumably in the US, then they somehow snuck into Mexico to save themselves with necessary medical care.
Not the reality which is four people went to Mexico to get one of the people a cheap unregulated tummy tuck and got kidnapped while there. The article itself doesn't make it sound oniony at all, just OP.

Calling you out for supporting a massive, established pedophile ring is bigotry and hateful?
Wow, what a surprising thing for a pedophile to say.
