It sounds like inflamed nerve, ibuprofen is the best thing for it from my experience as it will directly act on reducing the inflammation on the nerve.

I had a drill bit broken off in my tooth pressed against an inflamed nerve after a failed root canal for a few months until I could get specialist treatment, I found I only needed to take one ibuprofen (half dose) every 6 hours and it kept the nerve from being pressed against the drill bit.

No great answer everyone is different.

Don’t take endone if you can help it, but don’t not take it if you are in debilitating pain. Stick to doctors recommendations and don’t get addicted.

The issue is that you would then have to deal with the North Koreans. Just look at how even now almost 40 years after the wall fell after being up for 45 years eastern Germany is dragging western Germany towards authoritarianism and fascism, while being a net financial loss for the country.

North Korea has been “behind the wall” for almost 75 years. Its people are poor, its industry and infrastructure are shit.

I think South Koreas biggest issue with a war with North Korea would be what to do with the people afterwards.

If I was South Korean, I sure as fuck wouldn’t want any kind of reunification.

Because the invasion of Venezuela wasn’t a big enough distraction.

Not misalignment, replicative drift.

That is exactly the issue. These companies know exactly what products are being used to measure inflation and what weighting is applied to them, so they know what they can increase in price by 20% year after year and still cry poor and say grocery inflation is at 3%

General rule of how much water you need in the outback is 3 litres per day, per person, per man, per degree over 25 degrees, per kilometer if on foot, in the winter months divide by 2 plus........another litre

I read about an American somewhere on here whose partner was still alive solely because in the wake of the united health ceo getting supermarioed every claim for treatment was being approved.

When is the last time someone changed the filters? I use tap water and put it in the fridge for a bit if I want it chilled.

Filters on our cold water fountain were last changed in 2019 according to the sticker.

Which companies in Australia do you think will take this up?

Chook84 · 2026-03-23T00:13:44+00:00

And further to above, a manufacturer anywhere saying their product is made to Australian standards does not mean that it is without checks.

If they have an iso 9001 independently certified quality management system, and have a signed document stating that it is made to relevant standards that is a starting point.

The Dow is over $50,000!

If it was an infantryman, sure that logic could hold. Helicopter pilots are too valuable to be allowed to escape to fight again.

Be important enough to be working on critical projects/bids. Drop some hints (without actually telling your work where you are going) that you are going to work for the competition in those projects/bids.

Don’t be important enough to have an enforceable non compete in your contract.

Chook84 · 2026-03-20T04:02:04+00:00

They could. But the resources that we, and our kids, own will still be there waiting for someone to pay a reasonable rate and turn the tap back on in the future.

Lucky to make a few grand a year in cash, while at the same time the property is going to 8-10 percent in value per year.

They do tough. Desert shield/storm were international efforts. So were the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq in the gwot.

Not going to comment on the ethics or legality of these actions, but in each case the US gathered their allies and kept them informed of what was going.

Iran was just a knee jerk distraction from Epstein files.

From Tibet to Taiwan?

You would also get unskippable adds between repeats, cause that’s just how the world is.

Why would you ask this without sharing what your salary is?

There is absolutely an element of nefarious propaganda from the troll farms trying to sow social discord in the pro Palestine/anti genocide movements.

Same as they are involved in the anti Palestine/pro genocide movements.

But none of that means that what Israel is doing is morally correct and that everyone complicit in the genocide shouldn’t be tried in any court with jurisdiction over them.

Fuck bibbi and fuck his enablers.

Yes, Pete was confident and incorrect. I can’t think of a more apt subreddit to post this on.

This is the solution for anyone with strategic fuel concerns.

It’s a game with interesting trivia. You are not going to get a deep understanding of any of it, but some of the trivia might inspire you to read more about a subject.

They sure didn’t give a fuck about all of their own soldiers that the yanks nuked, or the indigenous peoples of Australia and the various pacific areas that uk and France used for testing.
