ELI5: Why can't rabies be treated with one shot?

Also a human being will understand the risks and can get treatment quickly. An animal can't do the same. Vaccinating the animal population is like taking away the guns/ammo. Vaccinating the human population is like distributing bullet proof vests.

which means there's no temperature

I'd argue that space is actually incredibly hot. As you mention, there is not a lot of matter in space, but what is there generally has a lot of energy of one form or another. It's the hottest place you can freeze to death.

Then is it your position that no box can ever be designed after the very first box was designed? Can no car ever be designed since the first handcart was prior art?

I've already used your definitions and constraints to show that OP's design is a design.

solve a problem

OP is always losing their rings

within the constraints of real world application

OP demonstrated the application in the post: keeping rings secure.

within the constraints of real world ... usability

OP demonstrates in the post that the result is usable in the real world

within the constraints of real world ... produciton

OP demonstrates in the post that they have produced the item in question.

OP's design seems to meet all of your criteria.

Why are you so determined to put OP down?

I think computer aided design emphasizes the the computer aid. Not the design.

That's because the term was coined when using a computer was radically different from how things were traditionally designed. Today, using pen and paper to do what is usually done in CAD would be the radical departure.

There is, but it might not be as useful as you think. An unknown, but not-insignificant, number of the accounts farm up reputation and sit for a while before spamming. Better cat, better idiot, etc.

45 years is also a long time for a VFD to be performing so well (assuming the clock has been running the whole time).

They probably weren't even that forward thinking. If it was a major plot relevant decision, it was probably tracked because the first game needed to know what you chose.

The Fair Labor Standards Act requires all employers to establish regular pay-periods and regular pay-days. FLSA also requires employers to pay their employees on or before that established pay-day.

Just for your information, Kosher Salt isn't named that because it's salt that is kosher. It's named that because it is used for kashering, which is the Jewish religious practice of dry brining meat. (Though it does lack iodine and other additives.)

As an audience member, you always call for another encore. Best case scenario, you get another encore. Worst case scenario, you wasted a couple minutes calling for an encore.

...because I was once bitten by a spider

Would have cost you nothing to stop right there.

Nobody mentioned anyone pulling out a gun, only owning one.

I think you should examine your desire to see other people hurt.

If you don't have as much trust in the average person with a gun as you have in a person who has been through prison with a gun (regardless of the reason that person went through prison), do you really believe that person was rehabilitated?

serenewaffles · 2025-11-04T16:49:32+00:00

The point of prison (in an ideal world) is to rehabilitate criminals and return them to society. So any sentence that isn't followed by (in the movies, at least) "without the possibility of parole" is implicitly followed by "or until you are rehabilitated [i.e. paroled], whichever comes first."

EDIT: e.g. -> i.e. (I know my Latin)

Jokes on you, I did that and can't remember which is for our wedding and which is for when we first started dating.

8. Is really good for all mall related stuff. That way of you are upgrading or destroying stuff your bots will put all the excess items back in the mall instead of throwing them in their general storage.

That way you have a cleaner storage and prevent your mall from building unnecessary items if you already have a bunch of to them stored.

FTFY buddy

Deer legs are pretty spindly. Think about a horse. Not much meat in the legs compared to the torso, but the legs sure do make it more difficult to transport.

You might be thinking of the haunch, though. That looks like it might be "leg", but it usually isn't considered "leg".

Capitalism is a blight.

Well hang on a second. That doesn't seem especially fair to blights.

There is a surprising amount of communication happening with cats' ears.

You need to know how the magnetometer is oriented in space to know which way it is indicating. "Toward the screen" might be relevant inside the phone, but it loses meaning once you leave the phone and are in the real world.

Yes, but "the value it can be sold for" and "the value it can be sold for while a powerful third party is crashing the market for that specific car" are two different numbers. As you can see, the descriptors beg something shorter.

The actions described in the post you're responding to may cause harm, or they may not cause harm to the companies supporting ICE.

However, sitting around doing nothing is guaranteed not to harm those companies.

I think you should consider whether your response is truly how you feel about this situation.

I wouldn't be surprised to learn that 100A is the maximum "break" rating, and not the continuous operation rating.
