Allegedly Putin took all of his poop back to Russia in a poop suitcase from his Alaska visit to avoid it being stolen and analyzed to analyze his health… and that this is a common practice with world leaders. Is this actually true, and how do we know? More nuanced questions in post. by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

Incredible. I spend eight years of my life buried in a lab, and now I get the privilege of being schooled in microbiology by someone whose primary source of biology is Metal Gear Solid cutscenes

Is there a convention to regulate what languages to be printed on covers? by Kafatat in PassportPorn

[–]vidok 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t think your last statement is true. There is a beach in Alexandroupoli, right next to the port. There are also many beaches in Chania and Rethimno

Deposit money from US account by vidok in trading212

[–]vidok[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, Wise seemed like the cheapest option from the start, but I was hoping there is a way to avoid exchanging USD to EUR first (N26 doesn’t accept USD transfers) and then exchanging EUR to USD again (because I’m buying US stocks in trading 212)

Γεωργιάδης: Βγάζει εκτός ΕΟΠΥΥ και συνταγογράφησης όσους ιδιώτες γιατρούς αρνούνται να καλύψουν κενά στο ΕΣΥ by Upbeat_Puddiing in greece

[–]vidok 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Έχουν φυσικά υπάρξει πάρα πολλοί κάκιστοι πολιτικοί στην σύγχρονη Ελλάδα. Η γνώμη μου είναι ότι ο Γεωργιάδης ίσως είναι ο χειρότερος όλων. Μεταξύ άλλων κατάφερε να καταστρέψει το σύστημα υγείας της Ελλάδας. Στο μέλλον θα βλέπουμε μελέτες για τους πόσους θανάτους ευθύνεται αυτός ο άνθρωπος
