You just know a lot of those "Research Institute" sets ended up on scientists' desks at research institutes.

They still create microplastics.

When you scratch it you're making microplastics though, and they're going right into your food.

Technically, it was hilarious.

Not in reliability...

But they're probably still selling more CPUs to your average buyer who always buys Intel, doesn't read tech news and never even heard about the controversy.

It's a tax on buying a house.

Until recently they were recommending Intel CPUs over AMD at the low end, saying they provided better value for money in that segment. And they used to recommend Intel processors for gaming, back when they had the gaming crown.

Intel didn’t actually manufacture the chips.

The chips with the oxidisation issue were manufactured by Intel at their Arizona fab plant.

I saw another study which said vaccines reduced long covid by up to 50% depending on which strain it was.

Get Rainbolt to have a look and he'll tell you exactly where it was shot in just a few minutes.

As someone from a not-US country, I'm always amazed at how right wing the US "liberal" policies are. If Biden was our PM he'd be more right wing than our most recent conservative PM.

worse than regular recycling of plastic

In case people don't know why it's worse - it uses a lot more energy to do pyrolysis than it does to just make new plastic. It's bad enough that it's worse for the environment than just making new plastic.

In any case no plastics recycler has any intention of doing this except in "pilot studies". It's a dead duck and everyone in the industry knows it. As /u/SeaJ said, it's just PR.

The workplace isn’t high school.

It can be. I've definitely seen cases which were more high school than a professional workplace.

If he doesn't use his brand new immunity powers to have the military remove his opposition then he hasn't "given it his all".

And you know if Trump gets in power he's going to doing exactly that to his adversaries.

Traffic was close to zero here during covid lockdowns. It was bliss - it was quiet and serene like I've never experienced before.

Is it wrong to be wistful about the car-free depths of a pandemic?

They wanted to make an example of someone. His thumbing his nose at the US government was well publicised, so they made their revenge on him very public too.

I think about 18 billion of that was me

I wonder how many thousands of people died as a result.

They're not wrong that democracy's under threat. But maybe the threat's from the guy who has literally said he's going to murder political opponents - y'know, the guy they support.

Expected work hours seem to be increasing everywhere over the last twenty years or so. It's gotten pretty nuts.
