Matthew J. Nykiel, a board-certified surgeon, stated the appearance is modeled after Ivanka Trump’s appearance.[9] Melinda Anna Farina, an aesthetic consultant, identified the Mar-a-Lago face as attempting to emulate the appearance of Eastern European women.[2]
but there’s totally no cult of personality /s
my cat Mittens likes to pick things up. I just keep the shopkeeper distracted while she purrloins various wares.
Peking (KNT) -Chinese at one time experimented with fertilizing a chimpanzee with human sperm in an attempt to create a “near -human ape,” and they may try it again. The chimp was three months pregnant before the first experiment was halted, one of the original researchers claims. Western science long has scoffed at such an experiment as medically impossible, but Dr. Ji Yongxiang says the research, if it ever resumes, has the potential to develop creatures with higher animal intelligence who could speak and perform simple tasks. A second researcher at the Chinese Academy of Science said there were plans to resume testing.
the Soviet Union had a similar organization, with the same name (in English, anyway - it was Komsomol.) Its motto was “Be Prepared!”
I’m honestly not sure how different it is than the Boy/Girl Scouts, except maybe with more political indoctrination.
whoa, I just realized this is basically the left-lib equivalent of the NAP.
they meant well! honestly Esperanto has a really positive community, even still. but I can see how it’d get on someone’s nerves.
Newspeak was inspired by Esperanto, because George Orwell had an annoying Esperantist roommate. “bad” in Esperanto is “malbone,” literally “un-good.” “terrible” in Esperanto is “malbonege,” literally “very ungood.”
Chinese scientists worked to create the “humanzee,” a human-chimpanzee hybrid in the '60s. Female chimpanzees were impregnated with human sperm. The experiment was cut short by the Cultural Revolution - the scientists were sent to labor camps and a three-months pregnant chimpanzee died of neglect. The Soviets attempted a similar program in the '20s.
the most secure possible? you’ll need to learn a ton. you’ll get there, but it’ll take a while.
decently secure? install Linux Mint, install your updates, don’t run sketchy commands with URLs in them unless you know what you’re doing, maybe follow a hardening guide. you’ll be okay.
if you need to be extremely secure and private, install Tails on a USB stick. it will be slow and frustrating, and you’ll need to save files to a second USB drive, but it will probably keep you pretty safe, and it’s decently user-friendly. just make sure you keep Tails updated! you’ll have to do that by flashing the new Tails onto a new USB drive, there’s no easy way around that.
those are your two most user-friendly, safe approaches.
my dad’s tongue turned black and he developed jaundice when he was living in Germany. they sent him to a tropical disease institute. never figured out what it was; it eventually went away. I’m guessing he happened to cross paths with someone who traveled from an exotic location.
there’s a lot of viruses: rhinovirus, other coronaviruses, RSV, etc. and other kinds of bacterial infections too. checking ProMED Mail I don’t see anything too out of the ordinary. there’s usually a flurry of emails there before an epidemic emerges.
if both parents are very sick it’s extremely unlikely to be ME/CFS. ME is a rare consequence of viral illness.
international treaties, for one. second because lack of encryption discourages commercial/non-hobbyist use. third because the spirit of Ham is for Hams to all listen and transmit to each other.
I think FCC still takes it pretty seriously.
just use Meshtastic/LoRa. you can use encryption and you don’t need a Ham license. your output power is limited but I’ve heard of people getting 50+ miles of range for reception.
specifically, for ham you’re not allowed to obscure the meaning of your transmissions. this means no:
but you can use:
so authentication is possible, just not privacy.
whoa Lowkey mentioned! yeah, that’s the kind of politically conscious hip-hop I meant. Immortal Technique was even moreso, but he’s been inactive for a long time and the extreme homophobia makes it hard for me to listen to, which is a shame.
this is sounding sketchier and sketchier. so every website that serves 18+ content in Denmark will need to check tokens against a central database upon login? forget censorship and surveillance, that sounds like it plain won’t scale well. also does Denmark really expect every website to implement this? what about Lemmy or other fediverse services?
why is this needed at all? why not just use parental controls on devices? why is this such a crisis now, for the first time in 20 years?
I feel like they could just, you know, not do this.
yo mama’s so gullible, she participated in an interactive zero-knowledge proof and believed the prover was literally the mythical Merlin.
yo mama’s so dumb, she brought poker chips to a Monte Carlo simulation.
exactly everything I need and nothing more. doesn’t need X. reasonably lightweight. no fiddly configuration needed. nice support for tiling alongside floating.
also, very buggy (at least as of alpha.7), somewhat fickle (at least on my hardware), and I can’t remap keyboard shortcuts.
