I can’t seem to find the setting. Is it not available for Firefox for Android (Fenix), do you know?

To add to others, wind also is generated when a rain “microburst” occurs.This happens frequently in the southwest U.S.

A microburst is when a very large amount of water is dropped out of the clouds. The gaining rain speed pushes the air below it out of the way. The air is pushed outward horizontal to the ground, which in essence is a massive wall of wind.

Often in the Sonoron desert a microburst causes the wind to push a lot of dirt from the ground surface to be blown out with the wind. When this happens it’s called a haboob. The wall of thick dust and particles can be up to a mile high and as wide as a city.

Below is a link to an image of a haboob over Phoenix, Arizona.

Very interesting. Thank you for taking the time to contribute your knowledge. I appreciate it.

Not if they are regulated to put an “In Full or in Part AI Generated” label on it.

I think we’re there. The future is today.

All vegetation is now edible and extremely healthy.

Treat them how you would wish to be treated when you are old, forgetful, stubborn, deaf, and slower. Getting old can suck. It’s angering. It hurts. They are humans with emotions. Don’t forget that.

The one that doesn’t allow advertisements or rampant bots.

6 million dollars apiece is cheap?

This is exactly right. Divergence was small when sizes were small. Good point.

I wasn’t talking about HDD sizes, but I know the person to which I was replying was talking about HDD’s specifically. I shou,d have clarified I was talking in more general terms (CPU RAM, NVM sizes, etc.)

I remember being miffed about the advertising of the HDD sizes. So I think you are correct there. Wish I could go back to the mid 80’s and do some research on my old HDDs and floppies. I honestly just can’t remember, so thank you.

I hate the new prefixes, not just because they aren’t the older nomenclature, but because they feel ridiculous to speak out loud. If a less silly sounding prefix was chosen, I probably wouldn’t be tainted about it.

I agree with you. A long time ago, those of us “in the know” techies could parse the difference like it was a native language. When talking anything but computers, it was always the SI of 1000. When talking about computers, it was always 1024.

I think the masses were confused and the SI purists felt their SI prefixes were being corrupted. So they made a distinction/standard between binary numbering system prefixes and decimal numbering system prefixes.

I hate it. Feels wrong because I’m old and set in my ways. People like me are confused because we still use the old nomenclature, and when someone else uses the old nomenclature (when talking about computers), it’s ambiguous to us because we don’t know which numbering system they are using (e.g., binary as opposed to decimal). I still have to ask and half say binary and half say decimal.

I suppose if they’re teaching it in high school and college it’ll become native soon enough, if it hasn’t already with the next generations.

Most annoying for me is calling for or defederating from instances which have diverse points of view. This is inclusivity hypocrisy. Ignore or block what you don’t want to hear. Don’t speak for me. You may have supporters that think the way you do, but there are multitudes who think differently. It’s the antithesis of equity to silence different opinions, no matter how offensive they are to you and/or to those who think like you. Simply block them so you do not have to endure differing, offensive speech [even if you consider it “hate” speech]. What I hate, others may adore. So just block it.

i read the article. It says 1 in 5 die from it. It’s spreading due to warmer water. It thrives where river water and salt/sea water mix. If you have scratches or abrasions, it can enter that way. One person who survived said he will never go into water again.

I think some news companies are trying to sue him for linking to articles without paying them, which is a strange turn of events given it wasn’t too long ago that businesses would paid you to link to their site (that’s what Elon says anyway; I’m not in web commerce so I don’t know personally how it works.) So, I guess he wants to have people write the news on his site instead?

I think news companies are going bust?

The question I have, are sales of these products down? Do these implementations work to reduce unhealthy consumption? Are hospitals and medical offices seeing less revenue? If they don’t actually work, what will?

Good points. Thank you.

Why?

George Castanza is a short, bald man that lives with his parents. He is insecure. To impress women, he often says he’s either a marine biologist, an importer/exporter, or an architect. He usually gets caught in a lie. In order to continue to convince someone he’ll go into further detail with a bit about his name is Art Vandaley from Vandalay Industries. He even had one of his friends answer the phone as such for some reason, don’t remember. Some lie about trying to establish a good reputation for a job or something, or trying to get promoted when working for the Yankees baseball team. Was a long time ago; I watched the originals when they were new (yes I am old). So I probably didn’t get all the details exactly right. I’m sure others with better memories than I will correct me. It was the funniest television of its time. Newer generation usually isn’t into stuff their parents (or even grandparents) watched, which is understandable.

Will we start seeing everything say “Made in Vietnam” now instead of “Made in China?” Vietnam is also a communist country, so why would the US do this?
