This is such a click bait headline. There is no new vaccine, scientists succeeded in a (small) test to link certain molecules with a specific antigen which would make the T cells stop targeting them, but that's a wildly, hilarious massive leap to either claiming a vaccine or a cure for anything.

It was nothing to do with Windows, it's a sorta joke where the person telling the joke is trying to use logic to compare 2 different things, with humorous results.

A better example is an old Norm Mcdonald (I think) joke, I'll post it below.

A guy sees his new neighbor out in his backyard, so he decides to get acquainted. After introductions, he asks the new neighbor what he does for a living.

The new neighbor says, "I'm a professor." The first neighbor then asks, "Oh yeah, what do you teach?"

"Logic," the professor reponds.

"What is that?" the neighbor inquires.

"Well, let me see if I can give you an example...you have a dog, right?"

"Yeah, that's right," neighbor #1 responds.

"And you have children too, right?" says the professor.

"Wow, right again!" exclaims the neighbor.

"So, then you must be married and that would make you a heterosexual, right?'' proclaims the professor.

"Unbelievable, you're absolutely correct. How do you know all this about me?"

"Well," the professor says, "I observed there was a dog house in your backyard, so you must have a dog. I also saw bicycles next to your garage, so you must have children. And if you have children, you are probably married and if your married, you are most likely heterosexual... it was all logical!"

The next afternoon, the neighbor runs into his old friend. His friend asks if he has met the new neighbor. The man says that he met him yesterday.

"What's he like?"

"Well," the man says, "he's nice and he is a professor of logic."

"Oh," says the friend, "what's logic?"

"Maybe I can give you an example. Do you have a dog house?"

"Why, no, I do not," responds the friend.

"Well, then," proclaims the man, "that means you're gay!"

I've been using Mullvad for 2 years and only just now realized I could turns ads off on my phone with a literal click of a button.

By Grabthar's Hammer... what a savings.

Well that's a blatant bad faith argument.

Riker's glance back at Worf when he says that is great. I would describe it as "surprised but thinks it's a good point".

That episode is a treasure trove. "I'm not good in groups. It's difficult to work in a group when you're omnipotent."

Hell the ability to write a basic sql SELECT statement alone opens a lot of doors.

I consider programming skills a very valuable skill that unlocks many career options, but if your job is morning but pure programming, yeah most people are not cut out for it.

Are they all dating each other?

I'm a type 1 diabetic, I've been using insulin pumps and CGM for over a decade. I am in no way defending pump manufacturers but A, this is not "basic medical care", pump/CGM systems (closed loop as they are called) capable of maintaining blood sugar levels are the latest and greatest tech for insulin dependent diabetics. B, it's not like they are creating something that doesn't already exist, they are just making open source alternatives, which I heartily support.

I just don't like how you are making it sound like "Welp the medical community doesn't want to make them so people had to step up and do it themselves!"

These things have been around a few years now and while I could fill a book with complaints about the design choices of the hardware we rely on I gotta say the algorithms that the software uses is very far down on the list of issues.

True, but this one was pretty fucking good.

I honestly hate him as a person but it's impossible to deny his skill as an actor. "Edge of Tomorrow" is easily one of the best sci fi movies in history.

Hey Demolition Man was WAY better than that crapfest.

Jeez I didn't know it was 20 years. I can see a small reward for a few years or something but that paltry of a reward after 20 years...

More fiber in his diet. And a bidet.

"Setting Sail, Coming Home" from Bastion deserves a mention, from the same studio as Hades. They put the effort in when it comes to music in their games.

You were supposed to say "Meow" and then I was gonna post the picture of Homer saying "Damn straight".

Hey, cats can't talk!
