own the software means access to source code, not being able to modify your car.

that's a load of horseshit. everyone around me want's the daylight savings time, to have more light after work. nobody cares about mornings.

IMO the longer the pasta you're choosing needs to be cooked, the more the effect will be pronounced. Look into thin fast cooking pasta.

What a boatload of crap.

> Statins can be beneficial in patients who have already suffered heart attacks. Cholesterol lowering is not the reason for the benefit of statins. If it was, lowering cholesterol via any means should have produced the same benefit, but it doesn’t.

What a blatant lie! Ppcsk9 inhibitors have produced excellent results, even better than statins.
