328kbps in a lossy format is plenty. You might be one of those people who claim to hear the difference, but to date we are yet to see a double blind trial where a substantial percentage of individuals reliably could demonstrate such ability.

Ozempic was an established drug before, it just wasn’t widely prescribed for non-diabetics. That is not say there is no chance of long term harm (and I share the sense that some downside will eventually come to light), but it’s not a huge chance.

It’s a bit more complicated than that. There are multiple codecs available (some with much higher bitrates), but even in AAC (which I assume you are referring to) there are different implementations. Also note that 328kbps is not “garbage mp3”, 128kbps CBR was the common (and shit) variant that you probably meant. But more modern codecs achieve much better fidelity at lower bitrates even.

I’m not sure all that cash was just kept in the pockets of the perpetrators. I would be surprised if even half of the stolen amount was trivially recovered.

The Hungarian twitter community is very small, I’d be surprised if it were a censorship target. Do you have a source on this?

I don’t think this is a real issue in the age of bespoke design for applications. Only a minority of then use the OS widgets for their interface. You can argue that this is a bad thing, but then the context menus are just a tiny portion of the entire issue.

Manifest v3 is already supported in Firefox (they must support it to keep the extension ecosystem alive), but they implemented it without the user-hostile restrictions.

Being hooked up to an IV drip in the middle of a forest is surely something the article would have mentioned?

Yeah, go for it 😎

While I don’t disagree with the general idea, Section 230 would introduce an uncontrollable risk into running any website with user-generated content and would essentially shut them down.

There is a krishna restaurant nearby, they have excellent food but no coffee (nor carbonated water for some reason).

 

My joke of a country did not order any from the updated vaccines for COVID-19, but still insists on keeping the state monopoly on it. We have private institutions where we can get pretty much any vaccine, but not COVID vaccines.

Is there any country where I could travel and get vaccinated as a tourist? Private service or otherwise.

 

Hi,

I tried enabling 2FA on my (first) account, but despite the UI saying it will display the code below, it didn't. I turned it off and saved the changes, but I guess that didn't work because now it won't let me in. I tried password reset and it does send me an email, but it won't let me in still without 2FA. Is there any way for me to get back my first account or is it lost forever?
