In UK it is compulsory to stop at the line, and then you start edging forward. So logically it's further back so that instead of wildly driving into a main road you creep into it. The stop line slows traffic all the way down so they're driving out into that road at 10 mph perhaps.

Yeah, they weren't exactly easy to handle from the beginning.

Fermented tofu, it sounds horrible but it's just akin to cheese.

Think how the Chinese feel about heavily fermented milk? Ha!

Well, if reported to the police, foul play or neglect was involved.

It was speedier and usually more effective than forums which crept at a snails pace.

I have a UV lamp from when I was making sure the room was relatively sterile for our newborn.

So here's my say:

  1. The room rapidly stinks of ozone. Ozone is a free radical that fucks up everything, including your lungs. We didn't enter the room until about half an hour after the UV was off (Ozone recombines pretty quickly).
  2. UV lamps are frequently used to sterilise hospital rooms because people are usually immunocompromised. Our newborn was fine, but it may have helped.
  3. COVID turns up in the comments: you cannot emit UV everywhere anytime without, again I quote, fucking people's lungs up. And COVID was pretty good at spreading anywhere and everywhere, so haha, nope.
  4. Those fun UV lamps that make stuff glow in the dark? Pretty damn close to visible colour violet, and low intensity (we use them in the dark, no?). This UV lamp for sterilisation? Look at it for a couple of seconds and you are already burning a hole in your retina.

And every single Asian game and anime tends to go for skimpy or virtual softcore with it's female characters. Rarely you see a female character in full armor.

The thumbnail just so happens to show the sea lol. It was easy to jump to the wrong conclusion already!

Reminds me of those one punch deaths that result in manslaughter, because damn, the back of the head is pretty fragile.

The lack of people actually reading the article and saying it's like a new plague, and you pop along, you who actually read the article and you say it's just dengue fever.

Needless to say I didn't read the article and been just enjoyin' the tin foil hat (or face mask) conversation going on in the comments.

All points need citations

TL;DR: Junk post, get your tin foil hats on unless there are sources
