PFOA is a relatively larger compound, and smaller “short-chain” PFAS that industry now more commonly produces and claims are safer were absorbed at higher levels – up to nearly 60% of one short chain compound dose was absorbed by the skin.

“This is important because we see a shift in industry towards chemicals with shorter chain lengths because these are believed to be less toxic – however the trade-off might be that we absorb more of them, so we need to know more about the risks involved,” said study co-author Stuart Harrad.

“Our research shows that this theory does not always hold true,” Ragnarsdóttir said.

And not just in America, but the UK as well.

Can I suggest sorting by new for your favorite communities? There are a lot of downvoters that have gamed the system.

Are you actually trying to start a phone vs pc debate? That’s funny as hell.

Do you think the corporations like my art and is it fair? Apparently it is if I run it through AI is what you’re saying.

Why do you think that the AI companies want to hoover up everyone’s art? Because it’s valuable or they wouldn’t take the risk of all of this backlash.

Meta has acknowledged using parts of the Books3 dataset but argued that its use of copyrighted works to train LLMs did not require “consent, credit, or compensation.” The company refutes claims of infringing the plaintiffs’ “alleged” copyrights, contending that any unauthorized copies of copyrighted works in Books3 should be considered fair use.

Furthermore, Meta is disputing the validity of maintaining the legal action as a Class Action lawsuit, refusing to provide any monetary “relief” to the suing authors or others involved in the Books3 controversy. The dataset, which includes copyrighted material sourced from the pirate site Bibliotik, was targeted in 2023 by the Danish anti-piracy group Rights Alliance, demanding that digital archiving of the Books3 dataset should be banned and is using DMCA notices to enforce those takedowns.

Yet they’ll spend waste billions on metaverse.

I’m pretty sure they were being sarcastic.

Who would actually try this? They said that McDonalds stopped the super-size shortly after wards, so it would have been hard to replicate anyway.

Wow, they left trump out to dry like that? They really do have the power in their relationship.

It’s not just the NYT, it’s the AP, which I don’t get because they’re supposed to be many journalists, CNN, CBS, ABC, Reuters sometimes, The Guardian and Politico. I check them every weekday which makes it really obvious.

He looks so normal, I wonder how much that cost.

It’s the privately funding thing, I’m sure Australia has men’s clubs like the Eagles, Masonic, etc. My guess is that if they offered tickets to purchase, there would be the discrimination? You can’t sell something and not offer it to everyone. OTOH, that doesn’t make sense because we have timed tickets and members only tickets here in the US, do they have something like that in Australia?

During this period, the biggest investor-owned contributor to emissions was ExxonMobil of the United States, which was linked to 3.6 gigatonnes of CO2 over seven years, or 1.4% of the global total. Close behind were Shell, BP, Chevron and TotalEnergies, each of which was associated with at least 1% of global emissions.

In this long-term analysis, Chinese state coal production accounts for 14% of historic global C02, the biggest share by far in the database. This is more than double the proportion of the former Soviet Union, which is in second place, and more than three times higher than that of Saudi Aramco, which is in third.

Then comes the big US companies – Chevron (3%) and ExxonMobil (2.8%), followed by Russian’s Gazprom and the National Iranian Oil Company. After that are two investor-owned European firms: BP and Shell (each with more than 2%) and then Coal India.

I’m sure people who sued Epstein, Prince Andrew, etc., would have wanted those locations. If they could prove they were both there during that time, a lot of litigation would have been settled much faster. Also, maybe (I doubt it) some of those people could have been stopped.

A lot of those victims want corroboration though. Also, they could at least release the known repeat attendees.

Is this a long winded warning that this information is out there? They name no names, just infer, and then say that we need our privacy at the end. Am I wrong that this seems like a call to arms so that people know how to fight this information coming out?

Near Intelligence, for example, tracked devices visiting Little St. James from locations in 80 cities crisscrossing 26 US states and territories, with Florida, Massachusetts, Texas, Michigan, and New York topping the list. The coordinates point to mansions in gated communities in Michigan and Florida; homes in Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket in Massachusetts; a nightclub in Miami; and the sidewalk across the street from Trump Tower on Fifth Avenue in New York City.

Yeah, IDK if it’s incompetence or sabotage, but Russia has been threatening to do it for awhile. They threaten a lot too, so who knows. https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/russias-medvedev-says-moscow-now-has-free-hand-destroy-enemies-undersea-2023-06-14/

You’re probably right. Some things I would think that would need to be worked out:

• Could a drone or lasers take them out?
• Could this open up the skies to private cars and where could they travel?
• Would there be a sky way? I would think that these would (maybe should) be restricted to over highways.

China might be the best way to test all of this out since they have such control over their citizens, we’ll have to wait and see how it plays out.

At least at first, people have to trust that there is a human that wants to stay alive as well, piloting the thing. Even if they’ve worked out the weather issues, not having a human at all would be pretty unsettling for most people.
