We're fighting a losing battle, and I'm baffled.  It seems there's a certain percentage of the population that is really adamant against science and fact but zealous to support demonstrably false fictions.  Before the internet this would be things like the moon landing being faked, but now we even have flat earthers proliferating.

The issue du jour is this rampant uptake of ivermectin as a covid cure:

Right-wing pundits and politicians have lent their support to the use of ivermectin, and an extensive NBC News investigation published on Aug. 26 found that its use was being promoted by America’s Frontline Doctors, a group of conspiracy theorists behind a viral PR stunt claiming the anti-malarial drug hydroxychloroquine as a similar miracle cure. The group’s members have dubious credentials, including Dr. Stella Immanuel, a Texas pediatrician and minister who has previously claimed that gynecological issues are caused by dream sex with demons and that the government is partially run by reptilian aliens.

To these people, it's more plausible that governments, health care organizations, and big pharma are conspiring to push useless (or harmful) vaccines while suppressing viable remedies that could cure covid.

Perhaps what we need is a counter-conspiracy.  Something dumb enough the bleach drinkers can buy.

I have been playing on an off for a few years now in the ee. before that in original i played more servers than i can count and my fav module was rhun to be honest. Now that i have discovered the forum and saw that you even shared the dm password. i would like to tell ya, Thank you very much for hosting this server and being a cool person.

cheers.

PS: i sort of know the module inside and out i have even got a handdrawn map on paper and excel with notes and everything. looks like there has been some talk regarding in game help earlier. hit me up for any questions anyone.

It was a poor attempt at humour, apologies.  In reality, I just googled the answer myself, with the assumption that 1 year was the orbit of the Earth and the expectation that's what most people would do.  You are of course correct that rounded to hours a full orbit is 1 yr + 6 hrs.

Earth revolves around the sun in 365 days, 5 hours, 59 minutes and 16 seconds. The time a planet takes to revolve around the sun is called a year.

Updating the answer to be more accurate would certainly help keep the spam bots at bay, but would it be too big a hurdle for the average user?  I'm sure there a better question that's too tricky for bots to parse, but understandable for humans.  Do you have any suggestions?

Totally wrong?  Best notify Google. 

Butterfly Bakery Maple Wood Smoked Onion Hot Sauce - Great flavour and smell, with a little kick.  I made fajitas trying to mimic the taste of my favourite Mongolian Grill dish.  I substituted this hot sauce for Mongolian Fire and was not disappointed.  Would probably be good in a chili, burger, or spicy chicken wrap.
