Well repost or not you do have a strange urge to repost this confused idea. Call it urban air pollution or smog, either way it's definitely not majority or even significantly tire particles. Not even combined tire and brake particles. You are flat-out and stunningly incorrect, I defy you to provide even a single source supporting your "most of the air pollution"

Picking a city at random (London), road pollution from all causes (including tailpipe and environmental dust disturbed by passing traffic) is not even 15% of total particulate.

"... road transport is estimated to only contribute 12% towards local levels of PM2.5. Conversely, the largest contributor of PM2.5 in cities is estimated to come from wood and coal heating.10 As a consequence of transport’s significant contribution to NO2 pollution in London, concentrations are generally found to be higher at roadside locations than city background levels. London NO2 data shows that over a 1-year period between August 2018 to July 2019, background NO2 levels averaged 28.4 g/m3, while roadside NO2 levels averaged 44.9 g/m3 (exceeding the UK’s legal annual mean NO2 limit of 40 g/m3).11 Ambient air pollution does not respect boundaries, and while London air pollution is made up of some localized emissions from transport, heating and industry, it also received a large amount of transboundary pollution from outside the city. Research estimates that 75% of London’s particulate matter pollution comes from outside the city, while 18% of London’s ambient NO2 emissions come from outside the city.7 Air pollution in London can also be influenced by seasonal weather factors. For example, colder conditions during winter months and low winds can lead to emissions being trapped near the ground in what is also known as a cold temperature inversion, prolonging and intensifying spells of air pollution. These winter smogs in the UK are also colourfully referred to as ‘pea-soupers’. London’s infamous Great Smog of 1952 took place during four days of the winter month of December (5-9th), and this severe smog episode was caused by emissions from excess coal burning to heat homes, combined with unusually cold temperatures and windless conditions which trapped the smog. It eventually dispersed when the weather changed. More recently, London experienced an intense 4-day smog episode between 12-15 December 1991, where NO2 levels broke records as the highest recorded to date, since monitoring began in 1970.12 Conversely, London’s warmer summer months can lead to summer smog episodes. These are typically caused by nitrogen dioxide reacting with hydrocarbons in sunlight, to form ozone" https://www.iqair.com/us/air-q...

Excuse me, what? Smog is very basic science, yes there are particles (mostly water vapor, soot & soil dust) but the primary composition is ozone and certainly not an *insane amount of tire dust*.

"forms when volatile organic compounds, or VOCs, and nitrogen oxides participate in chemical reactions in the presence of sunlight." https://scienceexchange.caltec...

You need to check some of your bizarre beliefs or misunderstandings, because you are (repeatedly) speaking them aloud in public

What? You know it is 2025 and the Arctic icecap 75% melts down completely away every single summer, right? You can just sail around in open waters (and navies and fishers do). https://www.climate.gov/news-f...

Also, that's not how floating ice works? Global sea level doesn't drop every winter when Arctic ice x4 in size - refreezing all the way back down south to the straight between russia and USA. Do you see a lot of people's iced beverages overflowing when their ice cubes melt?

Not true, salaried workers are only exempt from USA Fair Labor Standards Act provisions for minimum wage & overtime pay, but the act contains many other provisions that all businesses are beholden too like for child labor or hours worked.

For example, if an employer wants to declare me a professional and therefore overtime exempt they better be careful about declaring that I work certain fixed schedule each day (e.g. arrive by 9am vs allowing me to use my judgement and complete work according to my professional judgement) I will simply begin sleeping on the job. Nothing about minimum wage or overtime in this passage - just fixed schedules and sleeping.

Title 29: 785.21 Less than 24-hour duty. An employee who is required to be on duty for less than 24 hours is working even though he is permitted to sleep or engage in other personal activities when not busy. A telephone operator, for example, who is required to be on duty for specified hours is working even though she is permitted to sleep when not busy answering calls. It makes no difference that she is furnished facilities for sleeping. Her time is given to her employer. She is required to be on duty and the time is worktime. https://www.ecfr.gov/current/t...

That might work for you, but that doesn't work for most glorious achievements, 1) nearly 100% of success in biotech and other hard sciences takes steady, tenacious, *slow* persistence over years (see: practical mRNA medicine), 2) most humans cannot physically survive pulling double-shifts for weeks.

Besides being flagrant abuse of worker welfare, recruiting like this is blatant age-discrimination. 72hour weeks plus free dating service membership? Might as well say "only applicants under 21 with zero real-world friends need apply".

Arbitrary yes, but well justified. Google devices set the example in consistent security patches for rando bugs delivered for years longer than anyone else was - even if GOS could conceptually run on some other old mobile, attempting to secure unpatched, abandoned crap is not a good security posture.

Google leading the pack (ARM TrustZone plus discrete RISCv5 security silicon running an open OS, first consumer device with functional ARMv9 memory tagging) with adding exotic hardware security features is just a bonus from their overall platform security push. Google devices are also widely available, unlocked, and (until recently) extremely developer friendly - I imagine that reduction in headaches was huge for GOS which essentially started as a 1 person project.

Yep, baseband or Wifi radio could be evil but you can get a lot of good from: a thoughtfully employed IOMMU, hardened libc, and SotA defensive memory allocator. 4g radio may send all your data to the van outside, mine bitcoin on the baseband processor, or try to inject corruption into your outgoing packets - but you at least have fair assurance the evil coprocessors cannot just browse main memory at will for private keys, and if they try smth tricky layers of exploit mitigation no other phone provider would ever think to turn on will scream alert and shut everything down hard.

Yeah the second link in the summary says they got Zhi's offline wallets and private keys that "were in his possession". But it is not clear if FBI and 'partner' orgs simply sent Alphabet a National Security Letter so they could snoop through Zhi's gmail/gdrive files, or if they hacked his phone, or if an actual physical raid ever took place.

Because Zhi is not in custody, and the same second link doesnt say anything about anyone going into a home or compound *and instead* alleges Zhi 'maintained documents describing and depicting "phone farms"' kind of makes it sound like no one ever went to Cambodia and Google just let them into his gdrive, etc. https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr...

Is there a difference between msmash showing us posts from some personal blog, versus posts from a news site that's owned by the "journalist" and the owner is the only person that ever posts on the news site?

Asking for a friend. (and that friend is: BrianFagioli https://m.slashdot.org/profile...)

Seriously? No, the cases still happen -technically- both in your post and DT's rhetoric. Not hard to understand - whether you measure or not illness still occurs, disease transmits. Same goes for ocean chemistry or forest fires.

The last line of the post you typed is *actually* just saying the boring claim: "If we stop testing we'll know about fewer cases"

No, 'print release' by PIN is extremely common and not usually done through 3rd party software. Click and enter the PIN in your OS print dialog and then printer holds onto the job until someone comes and scrolls the 'pending' jobs list and enters the right PIN. Literally a common eorkplace feature for 20 years, Microsoft OS calls it 'Secure Print'.

Not sure about other poster's random Brother but mine also more of a light duty prosumer/SOHO model that lacks a keypad, alphanumeric info is entered one character at a time via the up/down/enter/back keys.

lol thing that screams at me is that 'forensic tool' image has obviously had the IPs removed for privacy. "[redacted]", "[raspberry_pi]", and "[mail_server]" all are clearly placeholders put in for publication are not 3x actual hostnames the researchers found on the bank network.

You know the NNSA also has a lot of unclassified documents, right? Sure, even unclassified stuff can be sensitive, but what gave you the impression there was any classified data on the public-internet-connected Sharepoint server?

As for ranting about foreign nationals.. what makes you think NNSA did not follow their strict policies about how/when foreign nationals are provided access to classified files (are you a military rep from France or UK who has treaty agreement rights to benefit from weapons data? are you a collaborating academic from an approved country participating in a legit project with approved need-to-know? etc.)

I don't know, I currently have a project running Go code in Python via Wasmtime and the experience with WASM is very shit. Headache is so bad, it almost would have been worth porting the entire Go tool to Python.

For every one typo the compiler catches in my library adapter Go code (already more annoying than Python which has excellent exceptions, hints, & no compile step just edit and rerun vs scrolling the nearly unreadable WASM build failure log)... there are literally 10x runtime errors from data inputs with somehow an even more useless stack-trace and error output. I just give up and rerun the inputs through the native Go. Seriously bad real-world dev experience.

Bingo. Yeah, background checks literally just search credit files/lexisNexis which in turn are just collections of cheap available lists.

Next most likely option, the h1b applied for a credit card using that address or gave it to their employer for payrole who then turned around and rented it out to ADT or anyone with two nickels to rub together that asked
