  • The EPI measures water quality in terms of “age-standardized disability-adjusted life-years lost per 100,000 persons (DALY rate) due to exposure to unsafe drinking water”

    Not just Michigan with lead in their water pipes

    The impact of lead on neurodevelopmental effects in children even at low levels of exposure is well established. Population and toxicokinetic modeling studies have found a clear relationship between water lead levels and blood lead levels in children at low levels of lead in drinking water

    The IARC classes lead as a probable human carcinogen. Lead damages the nervous system and can lead to reproductive problems.

    It sounds like lead in water pipes isn’t directly lethal so that would explain why they don’t count it in the numbers from that site

    The definition on that website sounds like they just count people dying as direct result of the water (Ex dysentery)





  • Judging by how little resistance the democratic party is giving to the extreme measures taken by the GOP I stand by my statement. Would the democrats have implemented these things if they won? Their campaign claimed they were different but they sure aren’t doing anything to stop it! (Oh except for holding up signs in congress condemning the actions and then voting along with the GOP anyway)






  • “We wouldn’t be in this mess if we’d have won the election — and we didn’t,”
    (Implies that if they(H&W) would have won we wouldn’t be in this mess)

    has quite the different sentiment than

    “Tim Walz says ‘we wouldn’t be in this mess’ if it wasn’t for him and Harris” (Implies its their fault we are in this mess)

    These headlines -_-

    Not that I prefer straight bias but we got conservative media calling these people cutting all of everyone’s safety nets “heroes” and this is supposed to be liberal media straight misquoting for clicks?

    We are in the worst timeline.





  • As a basis of a game… its amazing and unique! Does it have MASSIVE issues? For sure!

    It, like most games nowadays is early access and the company has been through a bunch of crap so development is slow… There are a few “clones” of the idea of fantasy extraction shooters out there but all seem to fall short when it comes to immersion compared to Dark and Darker…

    It is by far most fun at the start of the wipe and gets gradually worse through the season. I personally am hooked as there is nothing else like it out there.

    What most people complain about now is how unbalanced some classes are compared to the rest, which will always happen in a fantasy setting game I think… (Ranged vs Melee vs Magic always have balance issues with hard counters etc)
