No comment on the level of PFAS aside from

though the levels were low

This is just feeding the outrage machine to get clicks. If it was a story they’d be citing concentration guidelines and telling you what concentrations were found in the products. It’s not a story, it’s rage bait.

Eh, you’re being lazy. Just compile the kernel from source.

OK, so this is one of those comments that’s either “wtf, of course everyone knows that” or “oh shit, ok”, but generally wake on USB is a bios setting. Have you looked around in the bios to see what your options are?

Doesn’t explain the weird behaviour, but may be a good way forward.

OK then, I guess we see differently to you.

Have a great day.

Android has 41% market share in the US. It sounds like you’ve got some pretty heavy sampling bias going on.

So you saw the part where he shows how massively it’s changed and literally says that it doesn’t even look like the same program?

Did you watch the first 30 seconds of the video?

Lol, I thought it looked like an AC/DC song!

Nothing against anyone, you just don’t want homosexual people to be portrayed on TV shows?

Here’s some news, that’s something against someone.

Have a good day :)

The spice is the source of the prescience, I don’t think you can draw a line between them (the Tleilaxu could, but even then I think they used what they called synthetic spice, I don’t really recall that very well though).

Aside for that point, yep, I agree with pretty much everything you said!

Unless I’m missing something?

Spice is more LSD than meth.

Paul Erdos has entered the chat.

The 2022 movie covers the first half of the first book and that theme only really comes into its own in books 2 and 3.

I don’t really agree that the spice wasn’t put forward as a way to salvation. I think it clearly was key to finding the golden path.

The spice enabled the Bene Gesserit to see what was needed in their breeding program, and they were trying to breed Kwisatz Haderach who would lead humanity through a dangerous time, avoiding the destruction of the race. (Also the scene in the sietch that I won’t go into detail about, becuase spoilers)

Leto II uses the spice to see the golden path and forge humanity into what it needs to be to survive. (Also the other thing which I haven’t mentioned due to major spoilers of a cool moment).

The spice is pretty clearly necessary for the path taken to salvation.

While the spice may not have been necessary to avoid the destruction of the human race had another path been found, in the story as it was told it was absolutely central.

In Dune, the imperialist “nonsense” was the path to salvation. Genocide by machines was what we were saved from.

Richard Feynman had a really good bit about how bad human intuition is about quantum physics. About how we evolved to throw a rock at an animal out on a grass plane, and not to make good guesses about the nature of particles so small we can’t even fathom them.

Seems appropriate here.

I was wondering if the Android fingerprint login had been compromised since the days of the gummybear attacks. For anyone else who was wondering: https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/android-phones-are-vulnerable-to-fingerprint-brute-force-attacks/

Interesting question OP, I’ll be (academically) interested in the answer.

Edit: this Tasker answer is fiddly and very old, but may be worth looking into: https://android.stackexchange.com/questions/139653/can-i-make-android-require-fingerprint-pin-to-unlock-the-screen

The thing that breaks things broke things. The thing that fixes things fixed it.

The market for IBM Model M keyboard clones is already pretty full.
