I'm not sure the source of that chart. The viruses contained in the Coronavirus category aren't even the SARS-CoV-2 that we call COVID. They list 4 strains, all of which are the regular circulating strains of coronavirus. I&#x2

The bright spot is bigger than the bright spot over Paris and London though. Do they just leave the lights on 24/7 in the bay?

I was looking at North America as a whole, and noticed a very bright spot in Prudhoe Bay in Alaska. It's almost one of the biggest spots. Wikipedia tells me it has a population of basically 2000 people. Why is it so light?

That must be a tough thing to do every day. The sadness in her voice (in Mark's) video is gut wrenching. Both when she's telling the scammer how fried her brain is, and then when Jim tells her she's been scammed. Truly awful

Not an expert by anymeans, but it takes a long time for those to start producing energy when required (5 mins+). I believe in Australia, the Tesla battery was able to start providing energy in seconds.

I think people love to look at the products they've discontinued, and they have discontinued a lot, but they fail to point out all the products that have stuck around. I think it's likely a result of a company trying a lot of thi

Do you have to complete the "dump" side to be guilty? Does Musk still own all his bitcoin/dogecoins he's purchased? I believe Tesla still owns their $1.5b worth of bitcoins.

You're argument is flawed because someone is going to come along and say "$200 isn't enough to really test most advertising methods...I'd throaw at least $20,000-$100,000 on testing something." Then along comes Pro

So when markets closed on Friday, BTC was at about $55,000 and BTCC-B closed at $10.83. BTC continues to trade over the weekend obviously and is now at $57,000. Given this inbalance in trading times, should we see BTCC-B pop on Monday mor

Thanks for the perspective. I wonder if there is an opportunity for these places to service office workers during the day, and gamers on weeknight/weekends? More and more people have the option to work from home, but may want a quiet

There are a few issues with your statements. The first being that the staff of this program have no incentive to "commit you against your will". Why would they do that? I work in healthcare and have met people that work in these
