Reply to comment by SandakinTheTriplet in Archaeologists Uncover Oldest, And Most Complete Mummy Found In Egypt by Magister_Xehanort
It just seems highly unlikely to me that the oldest mummy found in egypt would also be the "most complete".
Like, I imagine we've found thousands of mummies in egypt, none of them were "more complete" than this?
Are they comparing "completeness" to a select few of other mummies that fit certain categories?
Also, what does "complete" mean in this instance? The article is not at all clear.
Seems kinda ridiculous that the journalist who wrote this couldn't have figured that out.

Oldest and most complete? That doesn’t sound right.

Do you have a source, like an article, discussing the high prevalence of price fixing?

Why do you think that fedex and ups would be engaging in illegal price fixing schemes if it were not for the USPS?
Most companies don’t have a government competitor and these sorts of activities are rare and result in serious penalties.

Total number of deliveries seems like a bad metric consider the vast majority of mail received by people is junk mail that no one wants to begin with.
You may have a point regarding distribution network, I don’t know enough about that.
It would seem it’s not cheaper though. I guess I should have clarified that that was most of what I was curious about.

By what metric are they doing a better job than ups or fedex?

I’m asking for examples where government does it better than a competing private business.
Also not all of this is even government owned. The us power grid for example is not

> If a government can do it better and cheaper than capitalism
Genuinely curious but what are some examples of this?
(Besides healthcare in the US)

I’ve heard dippy eggs used to refer to just a fried egg over medium/soft though?

Does PA not have those things for serial drunk drivers that makes you blow into a breathelizer before the car starts?

I agree it’s a scam but I’m confused why in the world would they label it “catch this crook” though?

> In the video the link points you to, they talk about trans rights as boys taking over girls sports as a "leftist" policy.
It might not be everyone on the left, but it’s definitely some.
Or is your issue with the fact that they call people who have transitioned “boys”?

I honestly see it from the left way more, but that’s probdlvky just because most people I habg out with are from the left and feel more secure doing so.

How is it disingenuous? The comment above makes it seem like they are pretty open about their views.
If someone isn’t put of by the biblical point of view thing, they’re prob gonna be in the right place

Why is honey specifically a risk for honey? It’s anti bacterial so I was surprised by that.
