A friend I know hopes this can be available to everyone soon. He's suffered from cavities for most of his life, and its shocking he hasn't had to have a tooth pulled.

While he isn't the best on dental hygiene I know he tries....but his medication and genetics kinda skew any efforts he makes. He jokes that he'd be lucky to have teeth by 50 still left, and in his case I feel bad for him because he does all he really can yet still has cavities and needs fillings regularly.

I am in my mid 30s now and unfortunately due to genetics on my mother's side (diabetes and high blood pressure) and with tartar/plaque buildup accelerated the process and now I have periodontitis where the bone the teeth is lost (the left upper side from the 3rd molar to the 2nd bicuspid).

I still have my teeth, but not for long (probably not to even my 40s). While teeth cleaning and tartar removal every few weeks helps slowing this process, its not going to stop it.

I pray that this breakthrough happens (even though it will probably take 5 to 10 years until we have something viable that we can pay for).

I dont understand right-wing politicians sometimes. Something like this has happened in sweden and now employers there are starving for talent. basically there is a salary limit that changes often and a person who has already met the requirements for a work permit all of a sudden needs to have their salary increased same month the limit changes or face renewal-extension of work permit and immediate deportation.

We are not talking here about low-wage workers either (can you imagine the level of knowledge and skills required to work for ASML), why attack that group of people specifically?

Is Pegasus still working, or OS manufacturers patched the vulnerabilities it was using?
WonderingMary · 2 years ago
Pegasus is only the malware that has the spying capabilities (file upload, download and command execution...etc).

it usually infects the intended target using an exploit (0-day) that doesnt have a fix, if you're asking if there are 0days that can hack modern iPhones, the answer is most likely yes, given the most recent hack against the iPhone of one of the executives of the russian cybersecurity company Kaspersky [1].
