Kennedy’s anti-vaxx nonprofit literally took credit for the falling childhood vaccine rates in 2022, calling it a “silver living” to Covid and citing years of his anti-vaccine activism. This measles outbreak is just evidence of his great success as an anti-vaxxer since 2005!

I feel strongly that we could have spent a few tens of millions on fuzzers without destroying the web, the environment and millions of people’s livelihoods.

Such an utter disregard for any professionalism. But hey, now the site is AI colored!

Anyone want to guess what has been in the SEM recently?

Is anyone planning to stargaze for the Leonids Meteor Shower next week?

We'll be out in a UK dark sky zone to see what we can see. Hoping for some cloud free nights 🤞✨🤞

Hach ja. Wenn eins Omni-Freunde einlädt und die erstmal vorschlagen, Parmesan mitzubringen. Weil Spiegelei mach ich ja nicht, weil ich vegan bin. 🥴🫠

computer-salvaging nerds, your suggestions please: I have extracted a 2TB model of one of these (https://www.ifixit.com/products/owc-aura-pro-6g-ssd?variant=39371640602727) from an old MacBook Pro today. The rest of the computer is probably not worth recovering except as e-waste, but in the current market it seems absurd to throw away 2TB of perfectly functional SSD storage just because it is a weird physical format. Does anyone know how this might be connected or adapted to fit a regular M.2 slot, or even a simple USB-C enclosure?

Top class!

Ok, I say 'ghost ninja', but what I really mean is that I'm rubbish at interacting with human beings in shops. I sort of creep in like a skittish cat. When I was younger, if a sales assistant headed toward me, I'd turn around and leave the shop!

Remember Covid lockdown rules? What wonderful lawmaking.

I would argue that you should have a packet of scampi fries on the side to make it up to a substantial meal, but that ship has sailed.

I like to think of myself as a sort of record/bookshop ghost ninja. I'm in and out, my presence almost subliminal. But I was just lurking in a record shop in town and the guy behind the counter said, 'Hi. It's Richard, isn't it?' I must spend way longer mooching in record/bookshops than I thought.

me showing up to work with a cooler for my food, gym duffel bag for my gym clothes/shoes/shower-stuff, and backpack with my work things staring at my coworkers with their fanny packs as I try to squeeze through the door:
