:-) Is there even enough sharks to go around - all with friggin' laser beams fitted to their heads?
Plus, you don't want a hungry shark in your bedroom when you're hibernating. Or ever really - now that I think about it.
Yeah, I can't see the Singapore post in this thread anymore for some reason - it was here when I first viewed the thread. But checkout the recent posts from both:
https://slashdot.org/~rsilverp...
https://slashdot.org/~maxcelca...
The wording is too similar (identical in places) to be a coincidence and it's clear it was written by the same person.
If the rsilverpubes account disappears, this is the content of the post from that account:
My not-so-vast nation of Singapore has a serious problem with coverage by radio stations, and indeed internet and anything else that needs broadcasting. The vast majority of the population here is concentrated in a large city. Which means FM radio station signals die out pretty fast as soon as you start driving from the population centers. So AM still has a role here, even if the quality is often sketchy. In fact, it's something of a life saver when there's a major emergency like a huge brushfire. In 2009, when massive fires engulfed large areas of Victoria, Australia, the AM stations of the Australian Broadcast Corporation did nothing but broadcast emergency information. There are terrifying recordings of warnings to evacuate, naming many towns. Or worse still, saying it was too late and to stay in place... Anyway, AM still has a big role there at least.
So Slashdot user rsilverpubes is also Slashdot user maxcelcat.
The wording of both your posts in this story are too similar to be coincidental. In one you claim to be in Singapore, and the other you claim to be in Australia. So you're clearly lying. What is your motive?
As a Victorian, I don't give any shits about AM radio. The last time I listened to it was with a crystal receiver I built in my early teens.
This is all just a scam. Mum and Dad investors will likely never come out of any RobinHood investment with any financial gain. Such companies exist only by taking money from the people who are not adequately financially informed. Robbers of Sherwood Forest will take your money at every turn in the forest.
This isn't really news, it's spam targeting the vulnerable.
Seems familiar...
There are many examples of when it works. Actually needing to go into the office on occasion for face-to-face time is the exception.
Generally - people who want face to face time in an office have inadequate social lives, or are managers wanting to justify their existence by filling up their calendar with useless meetings.

They both do. It's called mutually assured destruction.
The vaccinations are not meant to stop you getting the virus, they are meant to reduce the severity and duration of the illness when you do.
I haven't had covid yet. I still socially distance and where a mask when it seems appropriate.

That will be a problem with ESR releases.
Firefox 102.6.0 ESR might have been built on 2023-01-02.
Firefox 108.0.1 might have been built on 2022-12-26.
You can't just look at the build date to determine which is more up-to-date or supports the latest features. Neither should developers be looking at the user agent string.

How else can they pass the savings on to their customers.
Pass the profits onto their shareholders you mean?
You mean G to Z are useful to you?
What kind of super-wealthy person can spend that kind of money on food/entertainment, literally overlooking those that have nothing - and not do anything - or even question whether doing nothing is moral?
Would those turtles happen to ninja, mutant and teenage in age?
