Genuinely not trying to start a political firestorm, but I'm curious - did these same scientists bring up similar concerns in any previous elections? I'm a firm believer of absolutely no electronic voting machines. In-person, pape

MikroTik has been a bit of a behind the scenes player in networking since the beginning - at least in western markets. Even though I don't work in the networking field as much anymore I always look at their product release newsletters

There's a bottom of the barrel, dollar store brand under the Betty Crocker name brand in Canada - all black plastic cooking utensils, cheapest you can get in all varieties. Every time I go over to mom's place it's so shocking

I hope they include Amazon's practice of taking popular products on their storefront, making generic "Amazon Basics" versions, and selling them to undercut the popular options. Simultaneously owning a marketplace, approving w

It's a bit difficult to figure out what specifically the guy was being arrested for and I had to re-read the article 2-3 times. Looks like the main charges are due to violating the Lacey Act multiple times - shipping the hybrid sheep d

The typical Broadcom revenue extraction has struck again! Just another example of a greedy company like Broadcom buying up companies, jacking up prices to extract profit, while the employees and VMWare clients suffer. 10x price increase - m

I would always store/re-use the thin plastic grocery bags for trashbins, storage bags for miscellaneous things/junk, etc. etc. Yeah, we probably collected too many over time, and then got fed up and shoved the mass of plastic bags

The videos I've seen definitely look like it was more than a battery explosion - very high energy... Wondering if the pagers were intercepted and implanted with heat-sensitive explosive? The NSA has planted custom chips/firmware i

ACE 3-4. Not very satisfied at all. I find it hard to call what I went through "trauma" when compared to other situations people have posted - they definitely had it a lot harder than I had. It's hard to not compare your upbr

I would hope the individual that produced the antibody is well rewarded for what their body did. Unless this antibody is somehow similar across all antibodies created as a reaction to an infection - that single patient should get a part of

It's honestly mindboggling. You're moving a four-wheeled vehicle down an aisle, with enough room for 2, maybe 2.5 cart widths. Yet people decide to stop right in the center without considering that they might be blocking someone.

I wonder if you're fairly compensated by the police department for your time without your vehicle, just because you told the police you don't want to give them access to your Tesla. Plus the time to go down to the station to pick

If it helps you at all - you're definitely not alone with this, I'm going through the same "existential crisis" of sorts in my 30s. The internet and the variety of content and dopamine sources are horrible for some peopl

Amazing. Bing's AI told me a picture of a (what I now know) stinging nettle in my backyard was a hemp plant - I gave it several different pictures at different angles, and it was confident it was hemp. So I cracked the stem, touched th

I would assume this would be somewhat concerning for anybody investing in crypto. Correct me if I'm misguided - I'm not an economist, let alone a crypto-economist - I would assume the price of a bitcoin would go up as the mining r

The anecdote of walking into a flooded band room to unplug a submerged power bar is uhh.... "shocking" to say the least. I would never walk over to a live, submerged power bar to unplug it. Especially with your feet in the water.

Putting corrections in a link that nobody realistically sees or cares about is not publicly apologizing. It's hiding your mistakes because realistically 99% of the population who reads news doesn't care about the corrections.

Nobody seeks out corrections and clarifications. Nobody meaning, 99% of the population that reads news.

This really reads like a badly disguised hit piece against Elon, doesn't it? The guy posted something he thought was real, then deleted it when it turns out it wasn't. Then the writer goes on to mention he "hasn't apolog

It's a shame they had to roll what was once a cool promotional program to encourage you to shop at CT into something that pushes credit cards and debt. I still have some bills from the late 90's early 2000's when I was in Can

Seems very very silly to fight this unless you're sure you have damning, concrete evidence that companies are colluding to not advertise on Twitter. Like, many emails between advertisers saying "we're all deciding not to spen

It's amazing how there are systems that exist to ideally take care of your citizens, which result in people having their limbs amputated and their quality of life vastly decreased because "we just don't do that here" - i

I think it was Louis Rossmann who tested out some automotive fuses purchased from Amazon to see if the fuses were actually rated for what was printed on the label. I believe the fuses _failed to fail_ when running amperages higher than what

It's either go through a doctor, get a prescription and have it covered in some capacity by insurance, or I go order from a third-party/online solution and pay hundreds of dollars for something I desperately want, but won't b

I hope there's a cure for hair loss but it's too late for me. My doctor doesn't want to prescribe me finasteride or deuteroxide because of the negative health side effects, even though I was persistent. I was told by my docto

I really wish we find out the root causes of ADHD - I believe it's a mix of genetic predisposition and upbringing to control symptoms. It looks like this research brings us a step closer. I've heard of the kooks that put electrode

I'm not a camera enthusiast - but are these cameras still "worth it" to go through all the effort for their qualities, or is this closer to a vintage computer enthusiast just cracking away at something because it's a cha

If the Internet Archive makes a whoopsie with loaning out books they didn't have the license or permission to and gets sued into the ground by publishers, then OpenAI shouldn't have been/be allowed to use and process copyrigh

I swear there's something special about the cooking that isn't anything to do with skill and knowledge. Sometimes it's the person who bakes is what makes food extra special. My grandmother would always be the one to make fanc

It's depressing to see companies just throw out literal tons of UPS devices when all they need is 10 minutes and a 40 dollar battery, because it's cheaper to buy a new one instead of paying a guy to bring the batteries and install
