That quote seems like a load of incoherent gibberish,
In the UK a child is a person under 18, this is designed to protect children, and teenagers from exploitation.

I don't think I am very tolerant of "aspartame" does seem to be worse than sugar in some ways.

@bookstodon Today, my librarian told me about a good place to buy books online: Better World Books. Many of the books are library discards in very good condition. The shipping is free, and the proceeds go toward libraries, literacy programs (worldwide) and education. #books #bookstodon #library
Anyone remember the movie "The Goonies" early on they knock over a statue (probably of David) and the Penis falls off when the statue breaks, so to avoid getting in to trouble they stick it back on, only upside down, so the penis is sticking up.
How times have changed.

Just 4 more days until we meet the #Artemis II astronauts who will fly around the Moon! They'll be the first humans to see the Moon's cratered landscape up close in over 50 years.

I dunno,
he fact that Pneapple is contaminated is kinda worrying as what else is it contaminated with potentially.
Maybe it needs some research in to what extent and what the effect is.
@HopelessDemigod
It seems to be this is happening more often, in the UK not so, but we have had a several buildings going up in flames during renovation.
Health and safety law(s) exist for the very reason to prevent things like this, it seems people cut costs by cutting corners resulting in preventable accidents, which either lead to environmental damage, death and or injury.
Regulations and laws are fine, Any hazardous activity needs to have proper safeguards in place and the funding to ensure those safeguards are effective.
It seems the only non flammable mode of transport is probably cycling and walking.

The new banger in the Dominion vs Fox News battle:
Fox News’ “brain room” fact checkers knew dominion conspiracy theories were false. They knew ten days after the 2020 election and went ahead with the big lie anyway
Your reminder, Fox was the first to break the news about Biden’s win in Arizona
Then they fired Chris Stirewalt for his election coverage along with their fact checkers.

96% of the highest-paid workers in the US have paid sick days.
Just 38% of the lowest-paid workers get them.
Only in America do we call working people ‘essential’ but deny them paid sick leave.

Grammar tip: A platonic relationship is one that is nonsexual, a plutonic relationship is one that is nonsexual because one person is radioactive.

Hmm, so could make good painkillers, IIRC the Aztecs used cocaine as a painkiller, it used to be in Coca Cola and the famous Dr Robert was apparently a dentist and supplier to the stars (hence Beatles song)

Researchers of the University of Cologne describe a key mechanism that controls the decision-making process that allows human #embryonic stem cells to make the #heart. These discoveries enable better insights into how the human heart forms in an #embryo and what can go wrong during heart formation

The Computer Science department at Louisiana State University (LSU) is currently hiring for many faculty positions related to applied cyber security. Courses taught inside this department include reverse engineering, malware analysis, binary exploitation, memory forensics and other intensive courses related to incident response and offensive security.
Ideal candidates will have significant experience with deeply
technical areas of cybersecurity. LSU was recently granted the CAE-CO designation and is one of only 21 schools nation-wide to hold it as it is the most technical designation granted by NSA and DHS. The department also runs a large SFS program for cyber security students.
If you are interested in one of these positions, then please see the
following link. I also ask my industry contacts to please spread the
word within academic communities that you have access to:
The cybersecurity effort at LSU has strong support from the highest levels of the school and is rapidly expanding – so now is the perfect time to join.
PS: I am not employed by LSU, but do work very closely with the CS department to ensure the courses are relevant to industry and rigorous enough for students to leave with real-world, hands-on experience. If you have questions related to the position, then please direct them to Dr. Golden Richard at LSU: https://www.cct.lsu.edu/~golden/
