It helps with the symptoms: makes you sneeze less, helps clear the sinuses, helps with the headaches (or that feeling that your head weighs two tons), etc.

Trust me, I have experienced an extreme case of rhinorrhea. Not a single european doctor prescribed pseudoephedrine to me. And I'm not interested in painting americans as anything, the paracetamol I mentioned coupled with tea and lozenges work amazingly well for common colds

I am one of those people and I have visited many specialized doctors and not a single one prescribed pseudoephedrine, but I guess you know better

I don't know if americans are aware of this, but you can take 3 paracetamol pills per day when you have a cold and power through it (blow your nose), you don't need nasal decongestants unless have something like a deviated septum, in which case you should have that operated.
Re:Is LK-99 a Superconductor After All? New Research and Updated Paten...

"This coexistence between superconductive and non-superconductive compounds may be the reason why certain LK-99 internet videos (if legitimate LK-99) showcased a phenomenon dubbed flux pinning, where external magnetic fields are able to penetrate the superconductor compound through the parts of it that aren't superconductive (everything that isn't lead-apatite), pinning it in place."
This was my non-expert opinion as well..

Thank you for your post, I was looking for something like altinstall, I wasn't aware of it. I've used dnf to install python3.8 side by side with the default python3.6 on Almalinux and they seem to work fine, but I keep wondering if I haven't broken something.

Re:Python PEP for Making the GIL Optional Doesn't Get Enough Support

I like to think the community will gravitate towards the more performant option and the old python will be left in the dust

Enough is enough. Sam (facebook) should fork his work. Get him a dedicated team working on this, it's too important to abandon due to some bs politics.
