No person ought, or of right can be compelled, to attend any religious worship, or erect, or support any place of worship, or maintain any minister, contrary to the dictates of his conscience.

Anyone know where I can buy or get books by the pound to start a new library for our local jail. To help them read and prep them for a GED?

Find a small used book store. Odds are very good that they discard quite a few books in any given week, not necessarily because they are garbage, but because they just haven't sold, or they have too many copies, or they might have comparatively minor condition issues that preclude them from selling in the store. They may give them to you, or sell them to you at a steep discount.

I can listen to podcasts at 1.1x speed, and it basically just sounds like they tightened up their delivery a little bit. More than that and it sounds artificial.

I might go as high as 1.25x for some review videos, but I get the distinct impression that those guys are slowing down their delivery so as to pad out the runtime.

America only ever has one healthcare bill. It is the total amount spent on healthcare, including harm done to people who don't seek healthcare because it is too expensive, plus all the costs of people going to the emergency room when they have no other option, plus all the people who go into bankruptcy from medical debt. It's all one total bill, no matter how you spread the math around, and the only question is how much of that money is being wasted on inefficiency and lost to corporate profits. We might as well all keep paying that bill, but figure out ways to reclaim those corporate profits for the people.

What's weird is that I work at a used book store and we are busier than we've ever been in our fifty years of operation. From my perspective, print media is a very hot commodity... so long as the selection is carefully curated and the prices are carefully tuned to respond to the market on a day-to-day basis. If retail sellers can't manage that, maybe they need to look at their own business practices and figure out what they're doing wrong.

Not for nothing, but couldn't this be used to have AI play a game for 80,000 simulated hours and flag all the bugs? Human playtesters are important and have value, but no human should have to do the work of criss-crossing an enormous game map thousands of times just to see if the character model gets stuck on a random vertex sticking out somewhere, and yet it seems to be a distressingly common occurrence in more than a few games I've played.

That's certainly one of the points that I needed to learn about. There are certainly genetic diseases like congenital heart defects or hemophilia. But then there are genetic differences that might seem maladaptive under certain given circumstances, but wouldn't be any issue at all or might even confer advantages under different societal contexts. And then there are the straightforward differences that eugenics-obsessed regimes like to define as undesirable, like having the wrong hair, eye, or skin color, and then use that as an excuse to persecute whomever they want to. The whole thing is irreparably fucked.
