Reminds me of Radicalized by Corey Doctorow. The short story of that name within the collection of stories by that name.

Sure. Pets. We could perform tricks in exchange for slices of robot made pizza. Sentient robots may get bored too. Weird bipedal monkey creatures with delusions of grandeur should be good for a laugh at least.

You did not mention Waterfox. It seems to have better compatibility with modern web sites than Pale Moon. Not sure what is going on with Seamonkey these days. I may have to give that a try. The problem I have with Firefox is that it is now

I will continue to say C/C++. To me they are not distinct enough as languages to truly be considered fully separate and they use the same compilers. The fact that they use the same compiler is to me a devastating argument. No other dis

Extremely biased article. The author clearly hates Libertarians and does his best to just laugh at them and misrepresent their beliefs and makes not a single coherent argument of any kind. He is clearly used to being in a bubble and preachi

N95 masks very likely do provide a lot of protection from airborne virus droplets and aerosols, but they are still unavailable in most parts of the world including the US. I was able to find some Korean KF94 masks though. There is no eviden

Death rates may not be the only problem though. There is evidence that covid damages the heart and sometimes even the brain. This damage might cause many deaths years from now.

None of that is really necessary. You can just explain that the masks have small holes in them that are big enough to allow oxygen in and co2 out but small enough to catch most of the covid droplets. Even a child can understand the basic co

There is no evidence that cloth masks are better at filtering out than they are at filtering in. They are not designed to be one way valves. They are pretty bad at both due to the massive amount of space between threads which virus droplets

Would be even better if Oumuamua turned out to be an artifact itself. Its acceleration without any visible off gassing is still unexplained.

A nuclear pulse vehicle could catch it easily even if we waited 50 years to launch. Its slow speed is actually the best argument against it really being an active spacecraft because even we could do better. Much better. It could be part of

A nuclear powered probe could catch it assuming of course that it continues on a passive trajectory and doesn't change course. Obviously the longer we wait the harder it will get though.

We can just build a ship to chase down Oumuamua and end this debate. If it is no longer where a natural object with a passive trajectory should be well we have our answer. If it is there we can take a close look. THe fact that another inter

All I get from the article is that they gave some people psilocybin (20mg/kg) and then did some fMRIs. Lovely but I don't see any evidence for reversing mental age here.

You would have to be literally retarded to not figure out how to wear an N95 mask. They fit most people, at least clean shaven ones. You just have to bend the metal nose band to fit your nose and maybe go around the edges of the mask with y

Unfortunately plastic surgery cannot usually fix things like asymmetry. Surgery is really very primitive and people like to overestimate its power. It rarely ever makes a person more attractive in reality.
