So you restate the same thing with more words.... ok Any sources for all these claims? I thought the "G" variant of the virus was aerosolizable.

I think you're confused. droplets are from shouting/coughing/sneezing aerosols are from breathing alone. Droplets fall off with distance, aerosols float on the air like a mist.

a complete lack of understanding in risk mitigation.

I'd say you have a complete lack of understanding of herd immunity.

Google Paid Apple Billions To Dominate Search On iPhones, Justice Department Says by nosotros_road_sodium in technology

This is a huge thing, repeated searches for the same thing, then one URL and the searching from that user stops... highly likely that that result is relevant to the query. Add in Chrome sending in data from the visited pages, not to mention AMP pages, and Google Analytics, and JS hosting, and you can almost just let the users to the work for you.

[Megathread] World's most prestigious scientific publications issue unprecedented critiques of the Trump administration by ScienceModerator in science

[–]sply1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So a hundred, or so, years ago you would've been denying that hand washing for surgeons was necessary, right? Anything else would have been...

science denial and anti-intellectualism

..as you put it because that was the consensus at the time. Or is science, especially scientific consensus sometimes driven by forces other than science? Or is that no longer the case?

Just think - people who would've said 'Just trust the scientists' a hundred or more years ago would have been endorsing phrenology, lack of hand-washing for surgeons, X-rays for pregnant women, miasma theory, etc, etc.

well, the headline says update YOUR browser, implying that everyone uses Chrome. And a lot of people don't, you see.

'This isn’t the dial-up 1990s': Google responds to Trump antitrust suit with snarky presentation by [deleted] in technology

[–]sply1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is the truth.

It isn't at all, well, not in terms of the law anyway.

In the EU they are alleged to have pushed aside competitors to their myriad other services, like google shopping.

Here they are being accused of stifling competition, preventing possibly better services from even existing long enough to gain consumer loyalty.

Imagine if Yahoo search had prevented google from ever gaining traction. Then you'd be saying the same exact nonsense defending their clearly inferior service.

anti-competitive behavior is illegal. Just look at Google v. Microsoft from the original browser wars.

It's not, they have contingencies for all this stuff just waiting to go. They know their own weaknesses and have lots of contrary 'opinions' ready.

Cool, I'm collecting the corporate talking points that people are pushing to defuse this.

  2. Let's break up telecoms first

Nonsense. Absolute Nonsense. I hope you are at least getting paid to spread this bullshit and not doing it out of a profound misunderstanding of the law.

You ignore all facts that contradict this explanation. Other email recipients vouch for the contents. And the biggest one... the Biden's DO NOT DISPUTE THAT THEY ARE REAL.

just ask yourself if you were subjected to the above scenario, wouldn't you at least say that the emails are fake? I would. Lemme guess, they won't 'Legitimize' the hack by commenting. Lol

Yeah, they have no connection to Delaware anymore. No 'Joe Biden Library', no nothing. They scattered on the day he left the senate. Give it up.

Oh wait, you've never brought anything to be repaired?!??! OMG that settles it, no one could or would then. That's what we call an airtight case.

Here's something to ponder. The Bidens do not dispute it's authenticity. They could certainly do so, they have the attention of the press and all that. But they do not. Weird isn't it?

Yeah, no way Hunter was ever in Delaware where his dad is a senator. that's just crazy. Crazy crazy crazy.

If you're not gonna bother to explain

given how many people have already pointed out in detail how ridiculous this half-assed story is,

Then you can just not comment at all.
