If you eat some dark chocolate, does that make it a literal "bittersweet symphony"?

That is what the mfg claims. More info on the Wiliot "Pixel" (described as postage stamp in size, and gets it's power via radio): https://www.wiliot.com/product...

This study is just an attempt by the illuminati to shut down and marginalize the truth. /s

You are correct... I mis-remembered. (Word of advice... don't get old!)

There was a computer/electronics shop in Nashville, TN (USA) named Javanco. They had been around since the late 1970's Sort of a Frys/Microcenter/Radioshack. You could get almost anything computer/electronic there. Oracle sued them. Since Javanco had "Java" in the name. Even though Java didn't come out until 20 years after Javanco started. Javanco eventually won the suit, but that was the start of the end. They closed down for good in the early 2000's

In the article, the problem is not " non-traceable guns made with a 3D-printer and some unmarked spare parts." But it is indeed the small chunck of plastic or metal that allows semi auto guns to fire full auto. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

My mother still has and uses her compuserve email addresses.

The Supreme Court also found in U.S. v Moore-Bush (and others) that there is NO expectation of privacy for actions that occur in public. This is also the basis for the "photography is not a crime" movement, as well as the "plain view" doctrine used by law enforcement.

Back in the late 1900's, I used to work at several AM radio stations. Haven't listened to an AM station in at least a quarter of a century. If other means of communications were out, I don't think it would occur to me to check AM. I am not alone.

The important question, which a lot of folks seem to be ignoring: Are the shareholders OK? How long does this have to be news before we can sweep it under the rug and set the shareholders minds at ease? Priorities, ya'know!

The 4 laws for AI: 1) An AI may not harm a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. 2) An AI must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law. 3) An AI must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law. 0) An AI may not harm humanity, or, by inaction, allow humanity to come to harm. Should work great. What could possibly go wrong!

Actually, heatseeking is the perfect choice. Ambient air temp at 60,000 feet is -69F. The payload gondola will have a noticeably warmer temp, from absorbing solar radiation, and operating electronics, and indeed, that is what they announced they used, an AIM-9x heat seeking missile.

While the copyright on that particular Steamboat Willie cartoon expires, the trademarks for Mickey Mouse do not. So, someone can copy the cartoon, and re-distribute it, but any other uses of Mickey will still be protected by Trademark laws. So you can not sell Steamboat Willie version Mickey Mouse merch, or derivative works with out licensing from the House of the Mouse. FYI

I agree in principle with your whole statement, but must make a minor correction. Tennessee does have earthquakes (and is on a MAJOR fault line... the New Madrid.)

If you watch the actual interview, he suggested that it did likely start in bats local to Wuhan, but was probably being studied, etc at the lab... He never stated that it was artificial/man made, just that the natural virus was probably poorly handled at the lab and that is how it spread.
