From the title here, I thought this happened in 2003, not that the article is from 2003. Good thing the page itself has a bright yellow text box. Just saying, you might have made this clearer. I also wouldn’t call this “mildly interesting”. I don’t know what it is but there’s nothing “mildly” about it. Fuck.

It’s extremely horrifying is what it is and the executives responsible for this decision should be put into prison. This is monstrous. Someone who’s comfortable with this decision does not belong in society. A monetary fine is not adequate, especially since the fines are usually less than the profit they earn through these types of actions. They just consider them business expenses.
A 1000 mile radius does cover a chunk of the US. Centered on Denver it covers basically everything west of Michigan (excl Alaska and Hawaii of course).
I had a german professor once remark to me about how different Americans are, like hundreds of miles is a day trip, hundreds of miles is a week long trip by car. Bet the trains are awesome though. Amtrak long distances seems way too expensive relative to my other options when factoring in time.
Perelandra!
I read Out Of The Silent Planet and Perelandra as a boy, enjoyed them.
But I couldn't make it through That Hideous Strength, I put it down baffled and bored one day, and never picked it up again. Now I'm thinking I was too young for it, particularly growing up so far away from the novel's setting in England.
The first two novels take place in Mars and Venus, so there's a sense of adventure. But in That Hideous Strength, the mannerisms and situations and dialogue styles are akin to something like Brideshead Revisited in Oxford and/or Cambridge.
While a British boy might get the whole thing intuitively, I grew up in Mexico, so had no mental compass of that world at that age. It was all as confusing to me then as God Emperor Of Dune was later.
I really loved the sense of adventure in both. A lot of people dislike That Hideous Strength relative to the others, so I don't think you're alone. I actually loved it, but I was a bit older when I read it. I felt like it was a rare example building an atmosphere of dread and foreboding. However, it's been many years since I read it. My own opinion of it may be different now.
Cerumen is a good thing if it’s not causing complications. Lubricates the skin to stop drying, antimicrobial/anti fungal for certain things, helps maintain acidity.
Ear canal is like a conveyor belt and keeps carrying it out, a lot of the earwax is actually dead skin. For most people, being conservative and mostly cleaning the outer ear entrance is just fine.
It’s a problem if it’s blocking the ear, trapping water in the ear after showers, on the eardrum, affecting hearing aids etc.
Qtips suck for ears and often make things worse. Many times a day I see a wall of earwax blocking the ear with a qtip indent in it. I also see bruises from qtips in the canal all the time. Very rarely people that have shoved the qtip through the eardrums (very bad).
That might be it. I was thinking it could the a spike in voltage that shorted the traces. But nothing else got damaged in the house, so it is less likely.
I think it would clean it. Especially cause it’s a dish washer. But tbh I have no idea and there’s probably a dishwasher expert that can answer this lmao
