The sentence after the one you emphasized seems to be saying what I was: the virus is in aerosol particles or potentially droplets, which are what your mask protects you from.

Because the virus is transmitted via spittle/moisture from other people not wearing masks. The virus doesn’t just hang out in the air on its own; it’s suspended in aerosol particles.
Sure, our society is so progressive we could never backslide to the point that abortion is illegal or anything.
Beside that, if he’s throwing around billions, he’s likely most interested in economic issues like unions and worker protections.
Michael Crichton in a list of “best sci-fi”? Really? He just does mass market pulp. It can be entertaining, in the same way a Transformers movie can, but it hardly qualifies as “best”.
“Life is what happens while you’re making other plans,” as they say. The future is important, but so is the now.
I absolutely agree that it can’t create finished content of any particular value. For my D&D use case, its value is instead as a brainstorming tool; it can churn out enough ideas quickly enough that it’s easy for me to find a couple of gems that I can polish up into something usable.
This is why my most frequent use of it is brainstorming scenarios for my D&D game: it’s really good at making up random bullshit.
Came here to say this. Fantastic storyline, and runs great on Linux.
Here’s the first few paragraphs:
Aug 26 (Reuters) - Federal Trade Commission Chair Lina Khan’s initiative to use antitrust laws to protect workers faces a key test on Monday when the agency will argue the merger between grocery chain Kroger (KR.N), and its rival Albertsons (ACI.N), would crush unionized workers’ bargaining power.
Khan and her fellow antitrust enforcers in the Biden administration have sought to use antitrust laws - deployed in recent decades mostly to protect consumers against high prices - to combat what they view as anticompetitive practices squeezing workers’ paychecks.
Labor has been an area of focus for Khan, a former law professor and congressional antitrust counsel, who took the reins of the agency in June 2021.
If loaded with pages didn’t have access to keyboard events, you wouldn’t be able to write comments on Lemmy posts. I’m not a front-end guy, but that should be limited to just white the browser is focused.
… she’s proudly left leaning.
She’s a billionaire. She’s no more left leaning than Bill Gates or Jeff Bezos. She just flies socially progressive flags.
There can be only one: Highlander
Life doesn’t adhere to waterfall methodology: we don’t have to do one first, and then the other. We can progressively disarm as we’re addressing the problems you mentioned…
It seems to me like joining the military is arguably more deserving of the phrase “selling your body”; you’re basically signing up to get injured or killed.
I actually have met a concerning number of people who idolize The Empire in the original Star Wars trilogy. The one who was always loudest about it willingly moved to Florida recently and is turning sadly right wing. He used to be a super smart punk rocker, too.
That’s like saying sunrise doesn’t exist because the sun is relatively stationary while the earth revolves on its axis. Sunrise and tides are the names we give to how we experience these things.
Subjective experience cannot be wrong or right; it simply is. Interpretation of that experience can be wrong or right. Either way, the experience still happened.
I’m confused: you say there’s no such thing as tides, and then explain what tides are?
I’m thinking olive.
