The CDC reports rates pretty well below the general average, at least for 2021.

I think there is an arms race with content moderation that even if the instance is not themselves trying to monetize, clever and unscrupulous ad agencies will slip ads into feeds under the guise of actual content. I think it's a big reason Reddit went to shit even before it went public.

How do you separate a user who innocently includes McDonald's into a post or comment from someone doing so with the intention of driving revenue? (Do you want some fries now?)

It's probably already the case now just the 'ads' are mostly all political shit. Same idea just with a top-down political agenda rather than driving sales. They have all the public fediverse data to base their strategies on already.

I think this issue is just handwaved away with "oh go to a different instance" but we're here for content ultimately and not all instances have what we're looking for. Ad agencies are going to be able to adapt to a changing landscape like that because it's literally their full time jobs/careers.

I think there is likely to still be just as large of a personal variance in the rate that lisdexamphetamine is cleaved into the active metabolite, so the same problem arises.

I think anything that delays the active metabolite from taking effect technically dampens the addictive potential; the longer the better. I also think it's unlikely to really solve the problem though tbh. People can still tell what's causing how they feel when they start a new medication.

It's worth considering the biodiversity loss where palm oil is grown, as all land area is not equally valuable to nature either. Most palm oil plantations used to be rainforests.

This is because it grows where rainforests are supposed to be, what is maybe the most productive natural habitat. There is likely far more wildlife per land area where palm oil is grown than places you can grow other vegetable oils.

Idk how you use Firefox wrong but anon here is doing it. Got mine loaded with add-ons n shit never had an issue in years. Imagine actually using brave.

The problem is chromium dominance (edge and chrome mostly) as it makes other browsers vulnerable to the noncompetitive web standard changes that google likes.
