If there's no whistle to blow, why did the SEC issue a 5 million dollar fine?
Two statements made by early "prophets" of the religion, statements that most members would like to forget. Actually it was Joseph Smith (the religion's founder) that said the moon is populated by people resembling Quakers. Joseph Fielding Smith, the church's "prophet" in the mid-1900's, said we would never make it to the moon.

Quick and dirty should be a combination of Alpine and/or htmx.
Can you elaborate on the "interesting" aspect of pairing with the director?
"Religion-based" morality is dangerous and it evolves with society. What was acceptable by religion 300-500 years ago isn't acceptable today. And yet, God is the same yesterday, today, and forever? No thanks.
It means we won the cosmic lottery.

Re:Tinnitus Treatment from Neuromod on Friday October 16, 2020 @03:45PM (#24804313)
There was a post [1] here a few months ago that mentioned a medical device built for motion sickness iirc, but patients reported that it also reduced or eliminated their tinnitus.

My tinnitus is fairly minimal but I'd love to try both of these devices.

If you publish often, act immediately, be transparent, etc, etc. Luck is at the intersection of preparation and opportunity.

Re:How to say no, for the people pleaser who always says yes on Wednesday September 23, 2020 @08:36AM (#24566256)
Similar background, and I completely agree. I left the faith ~8 years ago and went through an identity crisis. I didn't know what I wanted because I always said 'yes'. All of the decisions in my life to that point were mine, sure, but they were essentially made for me...and I was simply to say 'yes'.
