IIRC, the fuel cells wear out and better technologies are more expensive to produce. My mom lives in Paradise and she would've bought a FC generator with an ATS if such a mythical creature were affordable and lasted at least as long as

Yep. And hantavirus is carried by rodents, rather than fleas, mostly west of the Mississippi in many states. Actually, there are about a half dozen terrible, rodent-borne human-transmissible diseases at this link (except Lassa is in Africa,

Sigh. It's not exponential growth, it's best modeled by a differential equation. Like population, the rate of growth is proportional to the amount present up to the current carrying capacity (that varies widely in the real world a

Polar molecules love them some encapsulation lipids on one side and water on the other. Then, IIRC, doesn't either water attack the naked virus or the virus becomes unprotected? I'm probably totally wrong. EtOH hand sanitizer up t

I have it. Every daytime movie experience (that I haven't been to in a while) results in my sneezing 1-2 times. My ancestors must've evolved to live in some dirty caves. ;)

Ah. OTOH, EHS is "hearing" an extremely realistic-sounding loud "noise" that wakes you up, but then realizing the "noise" never happen. It's like your body is gaslighting yourself.

For bacteria, antibiotic resistance is a big deal and aggravated by routine oversubscribing and meat agriculture. We need more antibiotics and phages quickly. For fungi and yeast, there aren't enough antimycotics and they too are overu

Lol, true that. I prefer all of: - superglue and baking soda in the lock tumblers - 10 lbs / 4.5 kg of sugar in the gas tank - pulling the fuel pump relays and spark plug wires - unhooking the starter positive solenoid wire - slashing

I guess you could backoff based on an ID, but then spoofing IDs would need to be defended against. So that doesn't solve anything either. I think DoS is fine to deny attackers entry because most sensible fobs have a backup key with a c
