HP builds multi-function machines as well, the scanners SHOULD position them for doing well transitioning from a printed world to an exclusively digital one, but the software they provide for scanning is wholly inadequate. They don't even include OCR with their scanning software.

There is nothing in the source NYT article to indicate the Emirates who are hosting this one summit in a series of summits are "Leading" the summit.

Your headline is excessively clickbait-y.

Long-form tweets are already available through this simple hack:
1) Type a post in a notepad app up to 1,000 characters
2) Screencap the note & paste it into a tweet as an image
3) copy/paste the actual text as the ALT-text for the image
4) add up to 240 characters in tweet body ...
6) PROFIT!

There are a LOT of milk choices, I already have to decide between Cow, Oat, Soy, Coconut, Cashew, Flax, Hemp, and Blends/Pea Protein - also unsweetened, original, chocolate, and vanilla for the plant-based options - and skim, 1%, 2%, whole, and A2 for Cow.. If I need to then scan multiple cartons with my phone (and USE MY DATA) to finalize my decision I'd be pretty annoyed.

If you have to individualize the Qcode, the cost to continue to include a human-readable date is trivial so why not both? But if you do remove the human-readable date, at least have a scanner right by the fridge so I don't have to use my own phone and data.

I do like the idea of automatic price reductions for milk nearer expiration, we go through four cartons a week here, so milk with four days to go would usually be fine.

Maybe like me, whhttps://slashdot.org/poll/3205/what-was-the-worst-version-of-windows#oever created the poll blocked it out of their memory because of PTSD?

Having used versions of Windows going back to 2.0, I have to say 2.0 and 3.0 were far worse than WindowsME.

And even the relatively stable 3.1/3.11 releases should have been made TCP/IP friendly far earlier in their life cycle.

Also, grouping Windows 10 and 11 together is not a good idea for this poll. Having used it for a few weeks now, I'd say Windows 11 is a bigger departure from Windows 10 than Windows 10 was from 7.

Even free-range cattle are typically provided salt-lick blocks.

Perhaps the seaweed could be added to the salt blocks? Or provided in feed made available near the salt blocks - though that might alter their "grass-fed" certification.

If this can be used for a replacement for steel and aluminum in even a fraction of their current applications, it could be very significant in fighting climate change.

Aluminum and Steel production are significant carbon producers. (iron & steel production contributes 11% of the human-produced CO2, aluminum about 2%)

But wood captures and sequesters carbon.

So it's a win-win.

If we don't switch to wooden knives, we might have to instead give up eating steaks altogether.

A prion disease that can be contracted by a simple pin-prick might explain the brain disease now being found in New Brunswick, Canada. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/06/04/world/canada/canada-brain-disease-mystery.html

(also - this is terrifying!)

So I guess you didn't even read the clip of the article Slashdot posted???

"In lab tests, researchers found their catalyst yielded not only hydrogen peroxide, but a variety of highly reactive compounds called reactive oxygen species, or ROS. It turned out that these novel compounds were responsible for the majority of the new disinfectant's impressive antibacterial and antiviral abilities..."

Glad this is finally getting addressed at the National level. I remember hearing about this story five years when Jimmy Johns was preventing former sandwich makers from taking jobs at Subway.

No hourly and/or temp employee should be bound by a Non-Compete clause. They serve a purpose when an employee is actually creating IP, but those employees must be compensated adequately for their contributions.

No plausible way? We got Capone eventually, and these fucks aren't even close to his level of sophistication.At this point they actually waved a red flag in front of the FBI - I don't expect it to go well for them. It may take a while, but Bin Laden, who was more careful from them thought he was invulnerable as well. They will overreach at some point and for their sake they'd better hope it's against someone in the West so they end up in prison and not just invited for tea.

Well remember, it is all about him. Fuck everybody else. He literally doesn't care if other people die: he's said it in so many words.

A to the men squared. As the father of a five year old, I have been pleasantly surprised at how easy it is for him to wear a mask when we go out for walks. We are still doing remote learning in hopes that by September the vaccines will be approved for kids. My wife and I get our second stab next week.
