Only if you don't look at it afterwards

Sounds like NATO needs their own monkey models

It's definitely appearing as an option more on the pos terminals now that most people prefer to pay contactless rather than cash. I've only had one occasion where the gratuity was automatically added (ironically, on an occasion I would not tip because the service negatively impacted my meal and I had to strike it out) perhaps I've just been lucky.

What? No, we might not tip our petrol station attendants or barmaids, but it's still been normal to tip table service for at least 30 years.

I had suspected RSV last Christmas, given my experience of both, I'd rather have had COVID again. Well, I'd rather have neither but I don't get to choose.

I've only tested positive for it once, and that illness wasn't even in the top 5 worst colds that year. I've had numerous shitty colds since, any one of them could have been Rona again, but I ether wasn't infectious at the time I tested or it was after the point I stopped testing every sniffle.

There's a chance I have it right now, but I don't know if I can be bothered to grab a test when it will be done in a couple of days.

I'd take an updated booster if they offered me one, but my government is only offering them to over 50s.

I'm of the opinion* that once the majority has spike protein specific antibodies, occasional exposure to small viral loads (incidental contact) is probably a good thing for refreshing an immunity that might otherwise wane and allow a serious case to take root.

*I'm not an immunologist obviously, but I've previously read up on the clinical justification the NHS uses to recommend against widespread chicken pox vaccination

I wouldn't say they have a disproportionate amount of Reddit coverage, spez' shenanigans are well within their usual scope. Before the api-pocilipse I don't remember the last Reddit column they put out.
It think the editorial direction follows the interests of the kind of readers they get. Not so many Facebook or Tiktok stories unless there's particularly egregious behaviour. Their readers are too young to care as much about the former and too old to care about the latter.
Out of all the social media, xitter gets the most, but then every day is clownshoes there. As Reddit started aping them, they got more coverage.

Frilly collars, debauchery, and a law unto themselves? I think you mean architect.

But what if you just want to know what it's got in its filthy pocketses, precious?

Mother is just sleeping

Once you spark up it's not obvious at a glance if the cigarette is duty paid or not. There's a marked difference between a lit cigarette and no cigarette.

When asked for comment Mitch said

Since it tricked the pilot into ejecting, I assume it's gone feral and is still buzzing around looking for a mate. If I didn't have a big net to snag it in, I'd have to build a wooden decoy or perhaps just leave a paddling pool full of jet fuel out in a clearing. I'd keep my distance at first and try to gain it's trust.

And cigarette butts, don't forget them.

How many holes does a human have?

No cap

I think they were referring to his defence of himself

At the very least, periodic visits to Google Takeout.

I know Unity claim they can apply their new pricing to old versions anyway, but setting that aside, how practical is it to simply stay on Unity 2022 LTSB or earlier?

I'm not a software developer, I'm a CAD modeller. My company pays Autodesk a substantial amount of money every year for licence tokens which grants us access to new releases, but using the latest is pretty much unheard of.

For AutoCAD, 2022 is the default (2024 is current) although they don't seem to have added much of interest since v2019. For the likes of Civil 3D and Revit there are useful updates in newer versions, but the version used is locked in at the start of a project, and upgrading mid scheme is only done in exceptional circumstances.

If Autodesk came out with some kind of scheme in their 2025 tos that said "if you model a bridge in Revit, we will charge 5 cents for every car that crosses or passes under it" then we could easily stick on 2024 for a decade, more than enough time to skill up on the alternatives.

My understanding is that one of the services Unity provides Devs is analytics telemetry, and they just have to hook into that to read some telemetry of their own.
