Reminds me of a recent finding that attention lapses in a sleep-deprived brain correlate with flushing of cerebrospinal fluid (almost a garbage collection pause).

WD-40 is not really that great at anything, people buy the brand name, that's it. The formule being public probably wouldn't change much

I think it would be worth it to investigate cyanobacteria toxins in water over there as they can cause similar symptoms. Next thing to check would be local sea food. I feel like glyphosate is a red herring here. Heavy metals could come from frequently eating local fish/shellfish.

Please run Kate/Kwrite as root and then we will talk on the topic. Or pipe password to ssh

Kate/Kwrite will ask to escalate to root if permissions are not sufficient. If it's not available to you, that's because your distro patched it out.

For ssh - sshpass.

Replicate the natural processes? It's literally just UV light.

UV comes in an huge variety of strengths outdoors.

There are no calculations to be a "bit off". It's just strong UV. You're making it sound a lot more complicated than it is.

Sun also emits infrared which seems to cause positive effects counteracting some of the UV related problems.

Let's spend years plugging holes in V8, splitting browser components to separate processes and improving sandboxing and then just plug in LLM with debugging enabled into Chrome. Great idea. Last time we had such a great idea it was lead in gasoline.

Seems like a balanced approach, people can watch videos with adblockers but it won't count towards youtube's public facing metrics.

You can still have in-video sponsor spots, in fact, most of the creators have them. Viewership is an important metric to those sponsors.

I was thinking, big deal, didn't they do a pig heart transplant back in 1999? Turns out that was a popular children's novel and TV series in the UK called "Pig Heart Boy", not reality. First actually pig heart transplant was in 2022.

It was tried earlier by Religa in 1987, but the experiment was a failure AFAIK.

I've had my phone in silent/DND for the past 15 years and never answer the phone unless I'm awaiting a call.

I'm around 30yo.
