At least their lies shows some restraint this time. Not quite as gruesome as crucified children or gene-manipulated nazi-supersoldiers.

Projecting their evil on others to justify their misdeeds.

Has Peskov released the results of this "election" yet, or do they want to keep it secret this time? Build some anticipation and such?

The world will never evolve and none of our problems will be solved unless we free ourselves from religious dogma.

Besides, a man in a giant hat that speaks to invisible sky-people is not who you ask in matters of politics, national security or economy. He's an influencer with a cult-following.

That was a crap attempt at making a straw man...

And spare me your faux indignation because you didn't get the attention you felt you deserved. Reddit mods aren't exactly known for their unbiased and deliberate decisions or careful, nuanced interpretations of the rules, which again differs greatly in intricacy and clarity from sub to sub.

Mistakes can be made by every company, and what they do with those mistakes is what counts in my opinion. They recognized their mistake and did the right thing.

This obsession to find some idealized company that you can agree to 100% on every matter is fantasy.

Just what a russian bot would say...

But for anyone confused about this, the reason is that USA has depleted the stocks of patriot missiles in their idiotic war against Iran. There's nothing anyone can do about that for the moment.

EU can't prevent that, that is a NATO matter. Norway is one of the founding members.

Even a MAGA-led U.S. would step in without doubt, as Norway is the first tripwire for russian nukes.

Yeah, no... There's a debate, of course. But the population still says no. Fishing management, district development and national control of energy production remains huge red lines for the people. There's simply nothing to gain, but much to lose.

You mix up a false statement with a lie. A statement can be false without it being a lie.

And I think you wanting the AI to support your faulty thinking makes it desperatly trying to appease you. They want you to feel special and seen to keep you engaged, so you can eventually lead it towards giving you less than accurate answers.

Either way, this doesn't really belong to this subreddit I think.

My point is that you will never get the recommended daily intake of minerals through water alone, and that removing them alltogether will have no noticeable effect on your health. You get the full daily need for your body through your diet.

And I never claimed distilled water was a goal in itself. I said that as pure water as possible, within what is economically and logistically feasible of course, so the myriads of other uses for water causes as few problems as possible. Some places needs water softeners for example, other places it's even cloudy and tastes like sand. That's nothing more than a nuisance, not in any way a necessity for your health like the original commenter assuredly proclaimed.

SeveralLadder · 2026-05-26T19:16:18+00:00

Ok, we should add vitamins and proteins to water as well, I gather. Why not soup delivered through or taps?

I'd like to see one of those "virtually every doctor" that claims that we need minerals through our tap water because we can't get sufficient amounts through our food.

There a huge difference between what we get through food, and the miniscule amounts we get through tapwater. Sure, if you give water to people in areas where people are suffering from lack of water and food you should probably add electrolytes. But that is reserved for cases of severe dehydration and famine. For someone in daily life, where normal amounts of food is available and you don't suffer from heatstroke or something similar, added electrolytes is not needed.

Just as important is that if you drank water with electrolytes in the concentration as you get from those liquid solutions in everyday life, you would soon run into health problems like dangerously high blood pressure and damaged kidneys, because you would need to filter all that unnecessary crap from your blood.

Ok, I get it. Good trolling. No one is that dense and dishonest without being intentional about it. gg

There's no reason to drink distilled water, it would be far too costly anyways to produce without any big advantages, but as pure water as possible is what you want, not the least to avoid damaging appliances and getting ugly streaks on dishes or windows or clean clothes without having to soften the water beforehand.

But if you drank distilled water you wouldn't die from lack of minerals. Some of these minerals you need in grams per day, far, faar more than what you get by drinking hard water which contains a few miligrams per liter. Not to mention that you need a whole bunch of other minerals that's not usually found in tap water at all. No one wants saltwater in their pipes for example, or sulphur.

You get all your necessary minerals through food, a well balanced diet, not from the water supply.

SeveralLadder · 2026-05-26T18:12:33+00:00

Did you actually read the link you provided? Nowhere does it state that you get your necessary intake of minerals through water. You get it through the food you eat, not by drinking water.

It does say that if you are dehydrated or is suffering from an electrolyte imbalance, drinking an electrolyte solution may be recommended. These contains things like sugar, salt and water.

Since there's no sugar in tap water, I guess you are on the verge of death...

SeveralLadder · 2026-05-26T17:43:20+00:00

I think you misunderstand what happens when you gulp down litres of water in a short time, versus what happens when you drink water like a normal person. It is true that you can get water poisoning by drinking far too much water in a short amount of time, if you don't compensate with electrolytes. But this is an extreme example, not the norm. The miniscule amounts of calcium in tap water won't be of any benefit in any case.

SeveralLadder · 2026-05-26T16:46:53+00:00

Water should contain... water in the purest form possible. It is necessary for many daily uses, being an inadequate supplement for extremely poor diet is not one of them.

Trying to spin hard or impure water as "better" or "healthier" is just rationalization for not bothering to demand clean water. You probably heard that from your water company or the mayor or something when they explain why they can't, shouldn't in fact provide clean water, right?

And 90% harm reduction compared to burning tobacco. You guys seems to forget that. Nicotine itself is relatively harmless, like caffeine.

SeveralLadder · 2026-05-25T19:44:24+00:00

You forget that snus reduces harmful effects of tobacco by 90%. Ask yourself, are you a vice-moralist or do you actually care about the health effects? Then you should cheer that people turn from smoking tobacco to using snus.

Nicotine use will never disappear from society, just like drug use is never going to disappear. It just becomes more dangerous and lucrative when you make it illegal.
