It suggests the new plastics have the PFAS. Any that are fluorinated by Inhance. To your point, the recycled may have them too, as a consequence.

[Late Update] The fish 3.5.0 release is not responsible for my tmux issue. False alarm. Downgrading did somehow help me regain shell interaction, but I can't create a new session/p…

Thank you in advance! tmux.conf [1] [1] https://gist.github.com/alexpw/7d406734f912f835d705066de8286...

This killed all shell interaction within my tmux setup, somehow, and I had to downgrade in osx/brew [1] back to v3.4.1 [2]. I'm still wondering what part of my (probably outdated) …

I enjoyed reading the Philosophy [1] behind Sup, for the glimpse into how Gmail's immediate search feature changed how people use email clients, and how it inspired Sup. [1]: https…

Which alternative to MBFC is preferred? AllSides or AdFontesMedia or?

You should still get vaccinated. Post-infection immunity is very heterogeneous, with respect to what level of protection you'll have, and how long it will last. You might have grea…

The mRNA vaccines were developed to target the spike protein of the Alpha variant. We got lucky it works so well against Delta, or else they would have had to roll out a new vaccin…

So it's a white lie, at most, because he was always accurate. He stayed within the "real range" of 70-90, but he varied based on what people could tolerate hearing. If he said 70-9…

"My right to swing my fist ends where your nose begins." Your freedom to catch and spread covid to me is not supported by established law. It's also why we don't allow smoking in r…

The long-term safety is an angle that sounds reasonable, but isn't, and is used as an anti-vax talking point. A doctor is expected to know better. First, historically, no vaccine h…

It is true/correct. It's much easier to measure hospitalizations rather than infection, and the #s in the real world confirmed the advertised effectiveness from the trial, for Alph…

1) CSV can often be human readable at a glance (more so than most other formats, depending on that data), and that makes it appear deceptively simple and compact. Possibly due to t…

Dr. Ryan Cole, a pathologist, appears to make serious claims related to covid vaccines without supporting evidence. Searching his name reveals he's being given a voice by some of t…

To have confidence, I'd want a locked/disabled state, while whatever action is processing. The jiggle gives me an uneasy/broken feeling, as a button, even though it is very satisfy…

1. You quickly chill the meat in the freezer (or ice bath) after taking it out of the sous vide. This will help prevent further cooking when searing it, because we only want the se…

Sirius was email, snail mail, and phone calls -- standard stuff, but over the top. OnStar required calling to cancel. They provide a web UI where you can add a new payment method b…

At a minimum, it's nice to read this tracking relies on the 4g wifi from OnStar to be active (included in the higher-tier of their paid service). Nice, because I've cancelled their…
