Instead they solved it much more elegantly by just live-processing the video to re-aim your pupils. They’ve been doing it for years and most people don’t even know it which is how you know they did a great job. I’ve never noticed it looking

When describing infrastructure, words matter. When you describe something as “hyper critical infrastructure” it implies that tens to thousands of human beings will die within seconds of failure of said “hyper critical” infrastructure. The w

Why are there no GMO decaf bean varieties? Is the caffeine really that necessary for pest control even when cultivated/farmed?
