PS. as long as you stay inside the Apple ecosystem I think you always need one device left registered to the account (directly or through recovery contact) to restore the backup. I don't think the customer service based account recovery (last ditch, prove identity through passport/etc) recovers the passkeys from icloud backup. Every ecosystem will differ.

With Android, iOS and MacOS they aren't on disk exactly. The database is encrypted with a hardware bound key and only opened inside a secure enclave. Windows Hello probably too.

I never expected Google and Apple to export to third party vaults, or the user hostile FIDO to create a standard to export to non manufacturer attested endpoints.

If the initial finite volume for a finite big bang was large enough and we were not too close to the centre or edge, it would look like that. All the proof could be beyond our current measurement capability.

They have enough cosmic coincidences to deal with, without a cosmology where our view of the universe is privileged in such a way it makes it look unprivileged. Why would science Satan do that?

The usual assumptiom is that there is no source of the big bang, everything banged.

With enough mathematical wrangling, you could probably make current observations compatible with a centered big bang (far enough on the edge you might not be able to tell the difference). But it would be blasphemy to cosmologists to even try.

Risk costs money, this is a subsidy for Google.

As expected.

Reminds me of this comic :

I'm sure with a couple million dollar for every dose you could stuff a bunch of mitochondria into lipid nanoparticles and inject them ... but why?

The way it hits depends on so many factors, there is no good model for how it affects the different links (no standard measuring of geomagnetic induced currents to help build it) and most transformers have no specs for how sensitive they are to the induced currents.

Unless the ejection it's truly apocalyptic I think they'll just wait and see (for something the size which triggered the Canadian blackout for instance).

The only way to prevent it from taking down the grid is to put massive specialised active shunts in every link to block the very low frequency currents. Not going to happen, so they "just" turn it off, repair everything which broke from turning it off and do a massive blackstart. At least monitoring of transformer temperature is a lot better now than during the Carrington event.

Turning a bipartisan distrust of Flock into an another anti-MAGA with us or against us issue.

I don't think it's 404 Media's intent, but I don't think Flock is unhappy to see it happen either.

PS. volt watt control becomes a form of inertia when it kicks in, for amplitude only.

EN 50549 mandates volt watt control to allow gradual reduction of real feed in power, but it came a little late to the party.

Last time most of the people in the high risk group didn't even consume it ...
