People sending pix of (suspicious) clouds to the Cloud Appreciation Society, a citizen science body, led to this "classification" into supposedly normal cloud types. According to the article. Classification does not make the clouds normal.
A DNA swab harvests a vast swath of privacy. Two Parents share all your DNA; a sibling, a random half. Generational analysis! Targeting groups of people based on pseudo-science linking genes with behaviors. EEK! Another hair-raising invasion of privacy. Add the secret subpoena to harvest medical information, and we have a seizure of private information we have lost the right to even know about.
I thought I was paranoid before, now it's further down the rabbit hole. Taking a person's DNA reveals private information about a web of individuals. Add increasing computational power (eg, NSA Data Center in Utah) and we have a gargantuan personal data breach.
Posted a "new to me" Urban Legend: Scuba Bong, clearly labeled Urban Legend. Next day, a dismissive label, "Disputed!" Er...is the SCUBA Bong disputed, or is the Urban Legend status of the SCUBA Bong disputed? Big Brother Facebook muddies the waters.
The photos are legit. 50 ml is a sizeable thaw sample. My biochem circuits assesses this as a considerable advance for cryogenics. YES The trials stop at 50 ml, which these days means larger volumes failed. NO It does not allow a human brain mass to be thawed. But, smaller thaws are still great news. Basic research would see a tremendous boon if experiments can be performed with larger frozen sample sizes. A great number of potential medical treatments would become feasible with a 50x advance in cryogenic thawing. Some people here need an opinion reboot. This is exciting news!
Slashdot Mirror
there are many auto-bots (oddly enough often masquerading as hair salons).
Reminds me of healthcare demands for past surgery/hospitalization/diagnoses. WTF who can remember.
Hah! Government/biz connections run deep. Marketing tool for Facebook 'nuff said.
(says Google.) Now, just how do you integrate insecure privacy nightmares into a sanitary OS? Oh wait, you don't...
"a low horizontal tube-shaped cloud mass that appears to roll about a horizontal axis" has been added to the catalog.
