I am not from the US but I think Amazon has much more market dominance than Costco. If Amazon had 20% market share nobody would mind, but they don't have real competition that comes close.

Doctors told people smoking is healthy in the past. Harvard apologized for pushing sugar as healthy 60 years ago. Flat Earth was the accepted truth at some time, and Round Earthers considered nut jobs. Not being able to questioning anything "science has settled", would basically kill advancement.

Looks to me more like they used a compositor like AE or Blackmagic Fusion/Resolve.

Have you never heard about the word "Virtue Signaling"?

You are wrong.

"The notion that COVID-19-vaccine-induced population immunity will allow a return to pre-COVID-19 “normalcy” might be based on illusory assumptions."

No thanks, the pre alpha test can do other people. On top of it you still have to wear the mask it doesn't stop you spreading the virus. It just reduces the severity for the people vaccinated.

Can you leave these beautiful Japanese Gardens once you decided to enter or are you getting jailed there? Because you can't just leave Apples ecosystem unless willing to switch devices+ecosystem of course.

It's not the same though. You can be at the same time for minimizing Government involvement and even allowing ISPs to decide how they prevent/censor business models, but draw a line when they begin to censor political speech.

How do you do that, if all the big platforms you use are beginning to censor political information that would threaten their power.

It's still strange coincidence even if the id's aren't determistic, they still should be random.

Here is the prediction [1], there was also a post shortly before his death that referenced this and hinted that the month [30] and minute [:28] will be relevant in the future, but it seems to be missing in all archives. Only the QAnon post [2] mentioning this additional info after the death is avaiable.

We are talking about someone involved with a popular index site for QAnon posts, not QAnon or the operator of the "Image Board" QAnon uses to post his messages.

Wouldn't be that suprising if he got death threads and got scared.

A lot of things Q says isn't verifiable yet, and maybe to most not believable but that doesn't make them categoricly "false". He predicted Christ Church hours before it happened and even said it will probably be a mass shooting this time outside the US. Although he claimed Europe as the country it might happen. He also predicted the El Paso shooting 48 hours in advance but wrongly claimed it happens in the next 24 hours. These are very close predictions and you also have to consider that an exact prediction would start people wondering if he couldn't have prevented them.

An Image where people around Trump make a Q symbol thats starts with a phrase that probability of occuring is less 2^30. I would say is more than just luck. QAnon posted on 25.07.2018 4:28pm a image of McCain with his hands up and with a black backdrop. McCain died 25.08.2018 4:28pm. A day before QAnon also stated that McCain's dog days are over and to Compare the minute and month of the previous post. Qanon also stated month in advance that McCain will get in secret the death panalty, but only people following him will know.

Did you take in enough Electrolytes? Like Salt, Potassium and Magnesium? Because you lose a lot of Water and Minerals when doing this diet.

I had the same problem and then started Keto/IF and also switched to better Oils (less Omega6)for cooking and also eat a can of cod liver (packaged less than 6 months before) which has lots of Omega3 and Vitamin A every two weeks. I have the feeling that everyone is different and there isn't one solution that works for everyone. But sugar, processed foods, and too much Omega6 are a big factor in a lot of illnesses.

You won't find any centenarians that eat vegan. India is one of the countries with the highest diabetes numbers and vegan. Japan, on the other hand, has the most centenarian and they eat basically unprocessed food and low carb.
