There are non-mRNA covid shots.

Johnson and Johnson was one, the current one on the market in the US is Novavax

It's possible that they've gotten other brands of the vaccine, too.

And as they're currently recommending 6 month boosters for people at high risk (might have been 3 months early on?), if you got the initial 2, then the at risk people would only have about 10-12 so far.

I've personally been trying to collect them all. I didn't get the J&J, but I've gotten the other three, plus the moderna updated one.

Start going after the desktop market , or at least some of it, with Steam OS 3 public release?

As in, these multi $billion companies have only themselves to blame. All the penny-pinching to placate shareholders does no good when the company dries up because all the customers gave them the middle finger.

This is just some normal (non-dark) matter that we expected to be out there but was previously unobserved. It has nothing to do with dark matter or dark matter theories. We infer vast amounts of (otherwise unobservable) dark matter from its effect on gravity, and that has not changed from this.

BNSF Railway laid off a couple hundred mechanical folks on Monday. They dumped about 450 mechanical folks a year and a half ago too.

It's not just white collar.

I mean, like the shareholders. Are all Boeing's shareholders OK? Obviously the passengers/crew and some people on the ground are dead, but won't someone think of the shareholders?!?

Flat for 15 years? Are they sure that wasn't 12 years?

14 years ago was when Congress put a poison pill in an increase to the debt limit, that required them to pass a budget that dealt with the deficit, or most (all?) federal agencies took a "sequestration" budget cut.

The cuts went into effect in March 2013.

OpenSSH is the best known OpenBSD project, but they also makes pf (used in pfSense, OPNSense, etc.), OpenBGP, OpenNTPD, OpenSMTPD, OpenIKED, LibreSSL, etc.

Came for this comment.

So the merchant, in what used to be called a "free" country, cannot sneak in any fees whatsoever.

But the GOVERNMENT can!

If you're going to mandate honest pricing, it should absolutely include every government fee and tax as well. What's good for the goose is good for the gander.

This is actually a topic in Asimov's Foundation sequels. There's a galactic-standard hour, day, and year, and every plant maps their rotational and revolutional patterns to that. A main plot point was trying to find THE planet that had true 24 hour days and 364.25 day years, since that might have been the birthplace of humanity.

Of course, Ewok Adventures qualifies as part of "the TV stuff"

I was going to say handle it like the various food certification groups.

They come up with some sort of mark, copyright it (so you can't use it without their permission), then do whatever checks are required for their certification.

There's multiple Kosher and Halal certification groups, rainforest alliance, etc.

Handling it like certs means that they could be checked and revokable, so that might be the better option... but having easy to identify marks would be useful, too.

I use Brave too and am frustrated by that... I put an extension that exports my history periodically, so at least I'll still have it. History Trends Unlimited.

I wish they could make it a configurable option to turn off the trunctation.
