I present this gem:

“The fiber content is composed of:

25% soluble fiber (cellulose, lignin, and hemicellulose)
75% insoluble fiber (gums, pectin, and beta-glucan)"

I am not an RDN, but even I - someone who is trying to eat healthier - caught this inversion.

Mine clearance in the Strait of Hormuz uses a phased approach by U.S. Navy forces.

Step 1: Detection—guided-missile destroyers like USS Frank E. Peterson and USS Michael Murphy scan with hull-mounted sonar and towed arrays to map mine locations (Iran's IRGC mines are typically moored or bottom types).

Step 2: Survey—underwater drones (UUVs) and ROVs move in for close inspection via cameras and sensors, avoiding direct contact.

Step 3: Neutralization—drones deploy cutters to sever lines or small charges to detonate mines safely from afar.

This creates a verified safe channel for shipping, which CENTCOM plans to publicize soon. No divers involved initially for safety.

Clearing mines was NOT just a matter of ordering 2 destroyers through the Strait. Read the press release a little more carefully: “[CENTCOM] forces began setting conditions for clearing mines in the Strait of Hormuz…"

They (everybody in the region) know you’re there, but they don’t know precisely where 'there’ is — and that’s how the USN prefers it. Displaying confidence doesn’t always align with OPSEC.

USS Michael Murphy (DDG-112) pinged their AIS at 08:52:42 UTC on April 11, 2026, ~11.7 Nautical miles NW of Al Jari, Oman (the Gulf side of the Strait). At that time, its location was N26.34611, E56.02202

@AlaarchaReid @BretWeinstein Before we can drill down to usable heat, the drill bit weakens to the point where the rock is actually harder.

@BretWeinstein Whoa!

@TonyClimate When semis or high high-profile RVs get blown over like that, we in New Mexico call it "Spring."

There's a difference between diagnosing which infectious disease someone has and diagnosing whether someone has a specific ubiquitous infectious disease.

@PatrickGormanMP It's not about the guns. It's about what kinds of people have them.

Re: "Then why do you think banning gender affirming care for minors is going to work?" With respect, because such care and a lifetime of follow-up care are super expensive. Banning government funding won't make it go away, but that step is far more likely to result in a massive decrease in demand. Guns are dirt cheap in comparison.

Tell us you know virtually nothing about Newtonian physics, internal ballistics, or the difference between a Kalashnikov and a Mauser without telling us you know virtually nothing about Newtonian physics, internal ballistics, or the difference between a Kalashnikov and a Mauser.

SOME of the info you present MAY be accurate and relevant, but anyone who is able to spot just ONE of your several demonstrable errors elsewhere is perfectly justified in ignoring the info that might be correct.

Re: "It’s not always limited." Both @BretWeinstein and @HeatherHeying have said that myocarditis can't be limited. Unlike skeletal muscle, cardiac tissue doesn't heal; it scars over. This means a patient who has had myocarditis has a heart partially made up of scar tissue. This will reduce that patient's cardiac capacity for the rest of their life. I call that permanent.

A "limited hangout" is an intelligence/political tactic where some truth is revealed to distract from a larger, more damaging secret, making an organization look transparent while controlling the narrative and quashing further investigation by offering a sensational but ultimately harmless story. It's about admitting a small, manageable part of the story (the "limited" part) to prevent the full, damaging truth from coming out.

@Rainmaker1973 Yeah. I had that class (actually, it was two separate classes) back in the mid '70s.
