- lysp> 3. It is identifiable via MRI scans
- Stopped reading at "treatable with glasses."
I'm old enough to remember when vision impairment was invented. To sell glasses.
Granted some people have difficulty seeing. I'm one of them. But I've only heard of people in the US getting glasses for something which is basically a lack of looking hard enough.

Your response was ablest, dismissive and quite offensive.
1. ADHD was first described in 1798 by Sir Alexander Crichton
2. It is a neuro-developmental disorder where there is dysregulation of dopamine and norepinephrine receptors in the brain
3. It is identifiable via MRI scans where size differences were noted in specific areas of the brain (Caudate nucleus, Putamen, Nucleus accumbens, Amygdala, Hippocampus) [1]
4. It is about 80% heritable [2]. So genetics for inheriting ADHD from your parents is about equivalent to genetics from height which is also around 80%.
The "meds" increase the intensity of dopamine signals to a level that allows the brain to react to them, rather than being too low for them to be detected.

- As you're well aware, simply dismissing these as random "youtube videos" is disingenuous. The footage is sourced from the Associated Press (AP) which you have no doubt heard of. It has 235 news bureaus in 94 countries worldwide, and has been around for ~180 years, also having won 59 Pulitzer prizes for its journalism.
Your claim that buildings are being destroyed because they were "booby trapped" comes from a partisan source (the Israeli Government/IDF), which is an active participant in this conflict. Their claims are a liability limiting exercise and it's in their best interests do downplay destruction they have caused.
Statements from a government at war regarding their own military conduct are basically a PR exercise unless they have been independently verified. Plus independent verification is quite hard, as the same partisan source has prevented independent media from gaining access into the strip which stops independent verification of both side's claims.
Do you have independent sources for the booby trapping other than IDF or news organisations repeating their press releases? Basically anything from international NGOs / neutral observers that confirm that houses are booby trapped to such a scale that it necessitates the flattening of entire residential blocks?
While you say it's trivial to find a house with no damage, that was not my point. My point was from viewing the drone footage - that's view covers entire suburbs - there is not one single intact building in all 3 separate videos.
But since you mentioned "recently satellite imagery", lets look at the actual data provided by experts who analyse it.
The United Nations Satellite Centre (UNOSAT), released its Comprehensive Damage Assessment in late October 2025. So it's 3 weeks old. Completely fresh and up to date.
* It uses high-res imagery from as recent as 11 October 2025
* It tracks damage over time rather than just a before/after assessment
https://www.un.org/unispal/document/unosat-gaza-strip-damage...
Quoting the summary:
> According to satellite imagery analysis, as of 11 October 2025, approximately 81% of all structures in the Gaza Strip are damaged. Among the damaged structures, UNOSAT identified 123,464 destroyed structures, 17,116 severely damaged structures, 33,857 moderately damaged structures, and 23,836 possibly damaged structures for a total of 198,273 affected structures. Compared to the 8 July 2025 assessment, this corresponds to a 4% increase in total affected structures, and an 18% increase in destroyed structures, indicating worsening damage. An estimated 320,622 housing units have been damaged, 12% more than on 08 July 2025.
Their satellite analysis shows:
* 23,464 destroyed structures
* 17,116 severely damaged structures
* 33,857 moderately damaged structures
* 23,836 possibly damaged structures
* A total of 198,273 affected structures
It also shows the destruction of housing / infrastructure has been both systematic and continual over the past two years.
Having 81% of all structures damaged (and 320k housing units) puts extreme doubt to the claim that it is "just making it safe from booby traps".
- I'm pretty sure you get recovery keys with it also.
- See if you can identify in any of these clips, a single non-damaged building.

- Mike Cannon-Brookes is involved with a company (Sun Cable) which plans on exporting Australian Solar to Singapore via a 4200km undersea DC cable.
- The UN Genocide Convention defines it as:
acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group.
Reducing the population isn't required. Intent and acts are tested against the legal framework.
- That has nothing to do with this author and everything to do with you.
- Almost everyone begs to differ
- Drop Site (@DropSiteNews) reports that the victim was a civilian and not a fighter, and was released without charge in the past month as per leaked documents.
- Is the request coming from the user's IP or via a Twitter proxy?
As a plain webview would mean that you can grab everyone's details.
- > to create a comprehensive dataset that includes biometric data and can be used however the government wishes
Not forgetting Elon's mass data scraping from earlier this year.
- Almost no one supports their atrocities on October 7.
People however, can understand why a resistance movement in those circumstances might fight back after the history of occupation and rights abuses that has affected the area.
To make that claim of "support" is simply dismissive and minimising a long, complicated history into a few second sound bite.
For absolute clarity: I do not support harm to innocent civilians of any country.
- The ACCC is actually quite switched on to any misleading conduct.
They have gone after Airbnb / Airlines / Hotel Booking / Concert Tickets - for misleading conduct.
Especially business that use drip pricing (adding compulsory hidden fees later) or misleading prices like in the Microsoft case.
Anything sneaky - they're normally right on to it.
- Edit: mispost
- > where the CCP has the power to Build Stuff, at scale.
Not just that, they can mandate large changes.
If you try to do that in a western country, you'll have fossil fuel lobbyists, car manufacturers and a whole range of other vested interests putting pressure on the country's government not to make that change.
- Have a read of other posts and see what you might want to edit in yours.
- > The DEA put Adderall on its list of the most abused medication, and limits production of it and investigates doctors who prescribe too much of it.
The other thing on top of limiting its production, it's not just for the US, it's worldwide.
Australia has a shortage of various types of ADHD medication due to this DEA production limit too.
https://www.tga.gov.au/safety/shortages/information-about-ma...
Also, the Australian Government requested increased production to cover these shortages, and the DEA rejected that request.
So those limitations have a worldwide effect due to the US being one of only a few countries that produce these drugs.
