- i already have a basic cms of course, so i just adjust it a bit if needed.renderedred
- i've worked on this for a few months basically and now i just improve it here and there: https://www.hoarding…renderedred

- the hole in this theory is that nowadays you have to use a £1 in order to use a trolley and therefore 99% of people will return said trolleyBluejam
- Yeah but my laziness keeps Cart collector kids employed, otherwise they’d be robbing my home and raping my wife!_niko
- We only have that "returning fee" used by 2 retailers here. The rest don't, not even IKEA. But interesting theory don't you think?grafician
- Pay for carts seems to be in lower income neighborhoods here where often times they don’t have a car to carry all the groceries home in_niko
- also the theory in the image has to do 100% with pure morality while adding $1 incentive to return crosses into economics/value/rewa... systemgrafician
- This was one of my ‘girlfriend’ tests. Simple yet accurateGnash
- @niko, I still return the cart but I don’t take my money back. Leave it for searchersGnash
- so just observing what percent of 100 ppl returns the cart only by free will, gives you an insight on how good/moral a society truly isgrafician
- @Gnash very smart, also other test "how well she treats the waiter"grafician
- @Gnash also inviting ppl to a notoriously late-ordering restaurant to test their patiencegrafician
- ^ ah, next level testing.Gnash
- Waiter test is a big one for me, too. Having had a restaurant I’m very sensitive to how people treat waitstaffGnash
- Look at a Costco parking lot. All animalsGnash
- this is bullshit. pure unadulterated, uncorrelated bullshit.imbecile
- ^ found a cart abandoner :)Gnash
- Fuck the £1 charge, i laser-cut worthless tokens out of perspex scraps and etch dickbutt on them to use in trolleys, which i then abandon.Nairn

Intermittent fasting from dawn to sunset for 30 consecutive days is associated with anticancer proteomic signature and upregulates key regulatory proteins of glucose and lipid metabolism, circadian clock, DNA repair, cytoskeleton remodeling, immune system and cognitive function in healthy subjects
https://www.sciencedirect.com/sc…
"Our study has important clinical implications. Our results showed that intermittent fasting from dawn to sunset for over 14 h daily for 30 consecutive days was associated with an anticancer serum proteomic signature and upregulated key regulatory proteins of glucose and lipid metabolism, insulin signaling, circadian clock, DNA repair, cytoskeleton remodeling, immune system, and cognitive function, and resulted in a serum proteome protective against cancer, obesity, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, inflammation, Alzheimer's disease, and several neuropsychiatric disorders. Importantly, these findings occurred in the absence of any calorie restriction and significant weight loss. These findings suggest that intermittent fasting from dawn to sunset can be a preventive and adjunct therapy in cancer, metabolic syndrome and Alzheimer's disease and several neuropsychiatric diseases."

The collective noun for ghosts is 'a fraid of ghosts'.
This has made my morning.
- No it's not.Hayzilla
- Oh? https://en.wiktionar… suggests otherwise.
Also "a fright of ghosts'.Nairn - English being what it is, it simply needs enough people to want it to be this and it is.Nairn
- Hmmm. If you can provide one single use of that term anywhere I'll concede.Hayzilla
- I'm not sure I can provide a single use of most collective nouns - that's not really how they work.
You're bit of a buzzkill, eh?Nairn - I question things I see on the internet. Especially bullshit ;-)Hayzilla
