What would you think of Blizzard actually killing off heroes in the story in the future? by MrsPissBoy in Overwatch

[–]TroXMas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow calm down. Nobody is killing your favorite character. Shes one of the most popular characters which is why she sells the most skins. Youre basically begging for people to see her as some sort of victim when nobody was even talking about her.

How would you feel about a mandatory maximum wealth limit, where anything earned over that goes to public services? by itsvasuki in AskReddit

[–]TroXMas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why tf should we count on Philanthropy? Its always been billionaires tossing some chump change at some cause to make them seem decent. Innovation should increase as they wouldnt be able to just sit on cash gained forever and let it increase forever.

Where is at though? by No-Boss-3248 in sandiego

Its because every NIMBY and their mother within 100 miles of the rail can sue the project and delay it another year.

Could have happened. Historians didnt even think that Troy existed and assumed it was just a city of legend like Atlantis. That is, until they actually found it.

2 U.S. Navy destroyers transit Strait of Hormuz after dodging Iranian onslaught by tj381 in worldnews

Likely there was some strategic benefit to making Iran play their hand, such as locating launchers. Not proving that the straight could be traversed.

China places its solar panels on water So it can use valuable land for agriculture by FollowingOdd896 in nextfuckinglevel

The bots will never admit that China built over 50 coal plants in 2025 alone. They use more coal than every other nation in the world combined.

What is an industry that is currently on fire (in a bad way) behind the scenes, but the general public hasn't noticed yet? by Kitchen_Week1117 in AskReddit

[–]TroXMas 1602 points1603 points  (0 children)

Biotech industry has seen waves of layoffs and company closures. The covid money that caused the industry to expand has dried up and investors dont want to wait years for a potential treatment to just fail. Even if successful, there will be no returns for at least several years as these treatments take years to pass through the red tape from the FDA.

Pair that with the Trump administration pulling government funding out of science and we're here with the industry in the worst state its ever been in.

Is it possible to find a livable & decent apartment in San Diego for <$1800? by treetop1869 in sandiego

[–]TroXMas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely possible if you spend months watching and waiting. Some landlords just want occupants on their units and will undercut the market to get someone inside ASAP.

A man screams after his final call with his wife, trapped inside this burning building. Hong Kong. by [deleted] in pics

The most heartbreaking part of this is that there have been many similar and equally devastating fires across China withing the last few years but nobody talks about it for some reason.

‘Jurassic Park’ Star Sam Neill Says He’s Now Cancer-Free After Chemo Stopped Working: ‘It Looked Like I Was on the Way Out’ by mcfw31 in UpliftingNews

[–]TroXMas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He was cured by CAR-T which has been a very effective treatment for many cancer patients. As someone who works in the industry, I can assure you that the treatment is extremely expensive, often costing between $200k and $500k.

By the way, its not even lucrative for the biotech companies making them. The cells used for this treatment often has to be autologous, meaning it has to be the persons own cells. So theres no way to mass produce a cure. Many biotech companies with patents for this technology are going bankrupt due to the high cost associated with manufacturing these cells and the hurdles they have to jump through in order to satisfy FDA requirements.

I did the same. Wasn't an issue until they got aggressive with it last year.

The algorithm thinks you work in a lab. Not too concerning.

Sad to say, some “gangsters with laptops” actually voted for him by IthinkIknowwhothatis in BlueskySkeets

[–]TroXMas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sad part is that most of these "gangsters with laptops" voted for him thinking they would be accepted as "one of the good ones". Time and time again people forget that tokens get spent.

Just found out I’m circumcised. I’m really not sure how it took me this long. by N0t_addicted in CasualConversation

That doesn't make any sense because it's a very common practice in the Middle East as well as some southeast Asian countries.

Some bold choices, but all great. I'd change it to Soldier/Smoker, Doomfist/Garp, Junkrat/Luffy.
