Why not regular ascorbic acid?

I'm still on 18. I'll probably switch to 23 sometime. The device is stable and I'm the only one using it so I didn't feel any pressing rush to deal with the hassle since a lot of "security" issues are often fro

If someone has the same name as someone who committed an offence that's a problem right? This permanent memory doesn't extend to yourself only, it covers OTHER PEOPLE who have the same name as you. You are with them, for better or

I get a fever from the vaccine, but I don't care because the real thing would be so much worse.

For ascorbic acid (vitamin C) specifically, there is such a thing as too much of it.. in humans, the level that is too much is when it gives you loose stools.. if you back off that, then the body is likely using what it needs. Most animals

It's pretty simple.. are you someone who likes having the option to sideload apps and have flexibility to choose things? Then iPhone is not for you.

It would be nice. You could work around the no call from a desired but unknown number issue by whitelisting approved pay phones (which you'd have to bring back) where someone needs to traipse down to one in person to make a call. Proba

There are plenty of good free fonts. What was part of the problem was patent-encumbered rendering engines for a long time. Fonts weren't what held the desktop back, what held it back was that it just didn't have the resources that

It is doable though. A bunch of years ago I followed some instructions and set up a dual-boot on one using a Chinese ebook platform firmware. This way if you wanted to read epubs or PDFs you would boot to the other OS. Worked pretty well! H

I find myself uninterested in Bluesky, because other than the fact that it is an invite-only system which restricts network effects, Jack Dorsey is there. Jack Dorsey mis-managed Twitter for years and has not uttered one public peep against

It isn't going to get rammed through because Canada's governments are neo-liberal governments. Their focus is on the well-being of corporations and don't govern for the people lest they upset some anonymous corporate sharehol

I can't change the target by the same amount because the lowest I can set the machine I currently have is 30%. Except 30% on that is 70%+ in actuality. So that means it will turn on for 75-80%. That's way too high. If it let me tu

You know what sucks about dehumidifiers these days? In the past, they had a feature where you could cycle them 4-hours-on, 4-hours-off.. not anymore, now it's either sensor, continuous on, or run for an interval then shut off and stay

Why should I believe that they're telling the truth? What's to stop any unethical company from doing it anyway, and not telling anyone? There is no such thing as a training model auditor.

Do you replace your working appliances and vehicles in your home in advance of their failure just in case? Or do you wait, and then spend the money for a repair? Perhaps you could have a backup system in a storage closet? In the US, school

If you mean in the past, this setup was probably state of the art back in the 80s. Multiple buildings networked together? Doubt that there were many HVAC guys setting that up back then. If you mean today, sure, but why replace something tha

I am sure someone else can explain it better, but basically in the 80s you mostly only had a choice of 8-bit computers (like Apple, C64, etc.), DOS, Macs, Atari ST and Amiga. The 8-bit machines weren't really networking compatible or p

How is it with all the other data-only messengers you use? Is SMS the only reliable messaging service you have?

Why not run messages on your Windows machine? It's a webpage. You can SMS and RCS right from your browser.

It's not illegal to own a personal device, it's also not illegal to be friends with your coworkers if you trust them. There is no "intent" here. What you are describing is an organized criminal conspiracy which is illega

No, it includes calls now. Traditional calls over copper telephone lines are not recorded, but digital calls over MS Teams or whatever are recorded and kept for review. You still need a secondary device if you want to have a private convers

Such a waste of time trying intently to regulate and control communication. People will just get a second private device that is not managed by the organization, and if there is a mutually beneficial advantage to doing so, the other party w

Windows is my main OS. If I have to use Zoom, I will use it in the web interface only.. I won't install the app. Reason is because I don't trust that the app is not riddled with CCP backdoors.
