Who tells them the number is disconnected? That would have to come from the shady carrier enabling this stuff.

Even some electronics, I don't expect anything beyond a basic BMS (which has the logic baked into the IC) is inside my battery powered drill. All it has is a direction selector switch and a trigger.

There's no broader political win to this bill. This is something that some large donors, who likely play both parties, would want. Those kinds of bills usually sail through with bipartisan support.

Probably not for the diode properties, but the transistor properties. I'm not an expert in this field, but some quick googling says GaN transistors (compared to silicon) have faster switching speeds and lower on-state resistance. I

The client side cheating would by lying about when you received the packet in order to give yourself more time to think. Even if you only shifted it by 200ms per move, that could add up to a lot over the course of a long game.

I'd agree if it was being used to ban players across many servers, but a single community server is not that big a deal to be banned from. And they seem to have had an appeals process.

Fair considerations, I just disagree that it makes injections inherently problematic for long term use. Primarily because I have doubts about the possibility of a pill that doesn't come with more side effects than an equivalent injecta

Completely missing the point of GLP-1 agonists. The point is that it breaks the cycle by giving you the willpower to eat less. It doesn't magically make the calories you eat not contribute to your weight, it just makes it easier to eat

I'm curious what about injectables makes them specifically problematic for long term use? Diabetics already have to inject insulin for the rest of their lives, and an injectable version of the same drug usually has fewer side effects s

I'm not sure about other carriers, but for the past few years now that's how it's been on Verizon. The only lock in part is they waive interest as long as you stay a Verizon customer until it's paid off.

Personally I don't understand why so many people are so terrified of needles. Subcutaneous injection is so straightforward, even filling up the single use syringes yourself. I've done that once a week for the past nearly 7 years.
