Do you know why that VP didn't like you?

People are dying.

i would expect the impact of the water rushing in that quickly to knock everyone out.

not if you compare per capita. those countries you name have a significant sized populations that should be taken into account to normalize comparisons to other counties with much smaller populations.

can you elaborate on the workaround to remove the settings? after removing an eS and resetting all network settings, once the eSIM is active again, wouldn't the unwanted network settings be added back again?

let's remember that the US contributed the the funding of this research https://www.technologyreview.com/2021/06/29/1027290/gain-of-...

so let's imagine what this journalist expected to happen to the shoes really did happen, and mulched up pieces of metal and batteries from the trackers really ended up in playgrounds intended to provide a soft and safe surface to play on.

maybe the journalism is good, but it poses danger to kids getting cut and being exposed to battery chemicals.

also if i ran a playground surface mulching service i would have a metal detectors for safety reasons and not allow these shoes to be mulched, which could be what actually happened.

No passcode is possible. I have it configured that way for a device I have mounted on the wall at home. But apple makes it difficult to do so, as in a lot of extra steps, warnings and reminders, not just initially but every single update too. They've made it inconvenient intentionally, which is good.

i've never heard of it.

one possibility is that these religions literally originated from the same story. it doesn't necessitate that the story is true to have translations of a story in many places.

i know many that charge with a standard outlet at home, including myself. for many, maybe most, that's enough.

the efficacy measured you are quoting is not the efficacy of preventing infection altogether. those figures are the efficacy of preventing only the subcategory of severe infection. you'll have to read the technical clinical trial studies published for that distinction, though as many papers and media omit that distinction.

the good news is we will have a nasal vaccine that will prevent a whole class of colds/flus, maybe in a decade or so.

it's known well in the countries that have nasal vaccines already. one can only speculate about the united states.

i can see benefits to touting 94+% efficacy for the intramuscular vaccines (with the fine print that efficacy is only measuring reduction of severe infection), because it does help prevent hospitalizations and deaths. i think it would be difficult to convince a population to vaccinate while saying it doesn't prevent infection.

probably. the breakthrough rate was through the roof, and pfizer/moderna cancelled their final phase testing to measure breakthrough rate (i don't have a source beyond a friend that was in the trial that got notified of its cancellation).

but now we know why the breakthrough rate for injected vaccinated is so high https://www.nature.com/articles/s41385-022-00517-8

in short, nasal vaccination that actually trains the mucosal immune system has the potential to actually prevent infections, as the mucosal immune system is the first line of defense. the intramuscular shots have no chance to prevent infection.

subprime residential mortgages are lower, but commercial is way up.

watch the 3D animation video here. it's pretty amazing and this knowledge is the result of decades of research condensed into a single animation. https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/observations/watch-the-...

so, ceo's are trying to end remote tech workers domestically, but for less cost, are open to workers even farther away.

i've never used tor, but wouldn't it be better operational security to not use tor for banking to avoid being fingerprinted/identified, if one cared about remaining anonymous?

subsidizing electric vehicles does not automatically involve self driving. those are completely independent technologies.

i concur it is unclear and hard to understand the intention.

radio is a narrow range of frequencies of light; a subset of light. there's a technicality in there that could still work.

what do you mean? they don't look abnormal https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_automob...

that's an important distinction. i don't have an android, but i get the sense that by "supported" we are talking about continuing to receive security updates. i am not sure my assumption is correct, though. do new samsung phones stop receiving security updates in 5 years?

c'mon... incorrect facts are a different level than a missing punctuation mark.

all the crimes sbf committed are "traditional" fraud and not dependent on there being crypto involved.

we should still scrutinize and perform due diligence on all businesses, though, including crypto businesses.

this is a misconception. https://www.nytimes.com/2005/06/28/politics/justices-rule-po...

there will be evolutionary progression even without an absence of tech. homo sapiens will be gone at some point.
