That is ridiculous that they took away that ability. Looks like I'll soon be blocking things courtesy my fancy all-in-one-firewall-webblocker box at the gateway level.
From the article, it seems like people are trying to write things in a way to make them prettier... and less accurate. Quote: "The trouble is that gives you a rose-tinted view of the evidence because the results that get published tend to be the most interesting, the most exciting, novel, eye-catching, unexpected results. "
This is slightly on topic... take the wording from wikipedia that seems to be designed to appeal to the masses and probably has misinformation (looks like big pharmacy got their hands in this entry, phobia of skin thinning is mostly unfounded?) and then the words from an Indian dermatology website with lots of actual biology verbiage and sure seems to support the fact that steroid use for your skin is bad.
I am willing to bet that gene editing will lead to more evil humans. Why? The rich that could afford and want to edit genes are going to want to give their kids the things they admire.
What they admire is easy to guess regardless of decade we are in... they'll want their kids to be like them but "better", and most rich people run businesses. They'll want height, competitive drive, greed (they won't call it greed), alpha dog attitudes, and other qualities that lead to "being a better business person". And of course genderwise, muscles on guys, curves on girls. So what are you breeding?
A whole new race of miniature psychopath CEOs that have zero empathy towards the rest of their race.
The Wolf to Friendly dog thing is highlighted by a Russian study of wild foxes. It took a few years for the foxes to be bred into animals that look a lot like dogs... curly tails and whatnot. The genes that make the fox less mean to humans connected to genes that basically made the fox less mature and more pup like. They may have tried to breed some of that back out, but look at the TV show that goes into some detail about this.
Some abnormal psych 101 might help. Perhaps slow exposure to the sound in a controlled fashion will eventually get rid of the response. Google how psychologists get rid of phobias in the same way... it apparently is the one thing in psychology that has real results.
I saw three doctors about acid reflux that suddenly got very bad out of nowhere. Found out I had a hiatal hernia. One doctor told me I'd have to take one of these type of medicines the rest of my life. It kept making my digestive system extremely uncomfortable, plus I am scared to death of side effects of anything long term.
Turns out, all I had to do was not eat dinner (or anything) at 6:30 PM to solve 95% of my problems. Other things I do to manage the 5% of it are avoid alcohol (especially after 6 PM), avoid large meals (eat 4 smaller meals), avoid a lot of yogurt (not sure why, but it really triggers my acid production it seems), avoid sitting in a recliner type chair reading (something about the bending forward), and avoid sleeping on my left side. Right side or back is normally fine. I also drink more water, especially if I have a sinus/thick phlem problem which really aggravates the reflux problem.
100% agree. I pretty much love Firefox... it's been the best Browser for a long time in my opinion. And I use them all to some extent every day for various reasons. Firefox is my favorite still. I can't ever trust microsoft or google with my info anyway, so that is a big consideration.
You are right. It is totally fine for someone to kill themself in their own home... if nobody lives there with them... and if they never come near me in public and smell like smokey shit. And if they don't throw their fucking butts on the ground in my neighborhood, out the car window to and from work... etc.
So in reality, the government has to be the one to step in and kill smoking b/c there is not one smoker that doesn't step all over every other person's rights. And they don't care about their own body, why would they care about anybody else?
These charts have to be misleading. I'd stake my life that they take 10,000 old known malwares and test against them. Not surprisingly, every vendor detects them. Then they take a dozen or so new malwares, and 2 vendors catch them. Eventually you have the 99.1% vs. 98.9% type results and they all look about equal. They are certainly not equal.
All it takes is one of those new malware threats to bring down your business for a day. If you want a chance at catching them, you go with vendors that do a good job at the new stuff. In my experience, the free MS stuff doesn't ever catch the new stuff. Ever.
I worry with all the changes over the last year that something is going to give. I'd prefer Japan keep control. Although jobs for the US is a super nice thing for us.
Yeah, I want to say it did it by default when we were using it. Blackberry really was company-centric... but since companies got greedy and wanted to abuse BYOD and users wanted to be able to play more than use their phone for work... now we have the current state of affairs at most places.
Look at the video in the article... read the first half. It's the shape they made, not some new fancy material, that is of most interest. The shape is basically a solid "spring", but much more complex.
Mostly, nobody wants eyestrain or headaches over a period of 2 hours. A short 10 minute film is "good enough", but otherwise no thanks.
One of my eyes has near perfect vision. The other is slightly blurry at a distance, but not enough to need glasses. This makes the 3D experience terrible b/c everything appears off... the 3D effect turns into an eyestraining near headache inducing event.
Agreed, the hologram is just fine. I liked Palpatine more monster-like in it anyway and was shocked when he was just a wrinkled up old human later on. Pretty sure they changed it after Empire.
It seems to me they'll always have that to fall back on. I assume they have all sorts of patent money coming in from that. But yeah, nuclear construction sounds expensive.
With all my blockers turned on, Amazon's page starts getting slower and slower as I open a couple of tabs of it. Eventually crashing my browser. When I use my "not blocking very much" browser it runs very fast. It pisses me off every time and (luckily for me) probably prevents me from surfing and buying junk on there I don't need.
I feel the same way. Maybe smaller yards will be impossible. Perhaps their main concern is reducing costs to rural areas that have less population and more land. Not sure, but personally I never cut my grass "enough" and have a ton of trees and whatnot that could be tricky.
I like Volvo's attitude about this self-driving topic, but I had a class in college that pointed out the "stat" that Volvos were safer was mostly BS or unproven due to other factors. What factors? Well, at the time something like over 90% of Volvo drivers in the US were boring middle-aged people that didn't like to drive fast. The drivers were safer, they are supposedly also "more safety conscious" and so buy Volvos that tout being safer... and you see what potentially happens in this self-fulfilling prophecy.
Either way, what a huge find, this is awesome! Colors, positioning, type of feathers. The feathers on this tail are more floppy like the display, not flight, feathers in modern birds, showing that sexual display likely came before flight in evolution. Colors probably were important early on some are saying.
Bird-like dinosaurs just got a whole lot more real.
Good advice. Sadly, car manufacturers should have a manual old school override in all the cars today to let you roll down a window without power. Even if it just on one of the four doors, it'd help.

The only thing I care about is input lag. If they aren't better than the best of the older technology, not buying it.

All Pollution Should be so Inconvenient, obvious, and visible. Then maybe we'd have less of it.

That can't be right. I bought a little joystick for my ipad... and then I bought another one that was the EXACT same thing for about 1/6 the price.

Well hell. I missed that they backported it to Win 7. How nice of them.
