"Data indicates that NB.1.8.1 does not lead to more severe illness compared to previous variants, although it appears to have a growth advantage, suggesting it may spread more easily. In other words, it is more transmissible," Subhash Verma,

A bit of a silver lining that it's not more dangerous... I guess.

I don't see it that way. Most immigrants are hardworking, fantastic people, and frankly we need the extra hands. But when our government is privatizing and selling off all our assets to outside interests, we all lose.

Our democracy is very much under attack and we will end up like the states if we are not careful.

This is not your parent's conservative party any more. It's dead, long gone, It's not pinin' for the fjords, That party is no more! It has ceased to be! It's expired and gone to meet it's maker! What we have now is a mini trumponian nightmare molded by lies and run by criminals that want to destroy Canada.

"Whoops, I was pulling on the wrong stick."

computers are like a decade old

I feel called out lol! To be fair, I've wanted to upgrade for quite awhile, but most of my spare money has been going to vet bills for stray cats, which is a little more important to me than upgrading my pc.

Sad part is although the ad is fake, Fight fight fight LLC is real and it's one of two entities that owns the $TRUMP meme coin.

A 2022 experiment had thousands of adults participate in an online attention task under smoky conditions. It found that just a three-hour spike in fine particulate matter, typical of a heavy smoke episode, led to measurably worse attention scores. This fits other evidence that breathing smoke makes people mentally foggy, forgetful or fatigued.

Oh yay.. and living here in Manitoba a lot of us have been sucking up wildwire smoke for the last few weeks.

Ah TIL! I think it was finally added as of version 136, fairly recently.

When was that? I only ask because Firefox has vertical tabs now.

My daughter found her alone on the side of a gravel road yesterday morning and brought her to my house. We think she's about 6 weeks old. I had to edit the post title three times because she keeps stepping on the keyboard to attack and viciously lick my fingers.
