I've been following cures like this for years. There are three candidates in phase 2 trials right now that appear to work, they're mostly figuring out the doses needed and there's a big question on how long they last. Hopefully permanent but we don't know for sure.

Diabetics have just been so beaten down by this whole thing. I was told the cure was 10 years away 40 years ago. Even if the technology described here works we could be another 15 years before we see it. Researchers said it could be here as soon as 5 years, which is true if unrealistically optimistic. I believe the cure is coming but I'm not holding my breath until I'm actually in front of a doctor about to receive the cure whatever it happens to be.

Protip: if they mention unions in any way during your interview, you need to be in a union.

I think this has as much to do with Google being shit at finding stuff lately as it does llms like chatGPT

My best guess is that the son has no name (it's blank where you might expect the name in the last bit of dialog) because his dad deleted his browser history

As long as they limit the passengers to people with a net worth of 100 million or higher, then I think this should be encouraged.

I was in college during the years leading up to y2k and supported myself at the time getting IT infrastructure ready. Some friends and I decided to write a "virus" that, on bootup, checks to see if the current date is in the first week of January 2000 and if it is and a backup of the fonts is not found (so it'll only run once) then it'll back up your fonts and alter the originals to replace the y character with the k. This affected everything system wide.

That created more chaos than anticipated.

I've been spelling it "xitter" and using the sh sound for the xi part of the name when pronouncing it.

That is a fair point.

Maybe they should just withhold their vote.

Most people here have been on that alien site long enough to know this but the real story behind that photo is the two dogs here are pet siblings and were just reunited. No vet would have a "comfort dog" as that would just stress out most dogs.

I don't think this is as stupid as it sounds. With some exceptions Democratic voters tend to punish their representatives for corruption, but republican voters never do

Unfortunately, "investors" are buying up properties as fast as they hit the market. The collapse isn't for a while.

NASA used crayons before those space pens, and iirc the pens were available for a while before they tried them

Most of these probably aren't being submitted by the actual soldiers. The majority of the new reviews seem to be in English and even the ones in Ukranian could have been posted by anyone
