- trains all look to be arriving/departing in hundreds of minutes when you click a random station, even near active trains. Assuming a bug. Regardless, consider changing this to hour/minute display if over 60|90m

- train icon looks like standard metro icon but is easily mistaken for a bus

- train detail panel fixed to bottom is awkward on desktop breakpoints. consider floating or integrating to a single sidebar

- consider having main sidebar fixed to bottom for mobile breakpoints

What you quoted is regarding the use of a SERIES of single use wallets. What is the "normal Bitcoin" use case for funneling money through a chain of throwaway wallets?

Easy dive/snorkel on some of these ruins. Most features are at ~15ft. Highly recommend if in Naples area. See: https://www.subaia.com/underwater-archaeological-park-of-bai...

The cost to research and produce the diabetes and weight-loss drug Ozempic is significantly lower than the price charged to consumers:

A new study found that Ozempic costs between $0.95 and $5.50 to produce per unit, or no more than $22 per month at the highest dose. [1]

Another study estimated that Ozempic could be sold for as little as $5 per pen and still be profitable for the manufacturer, Novo Nordisk. [2]

Senator Bernie Sanders stated that a Yale study found Ozempic costs less than $5 per month to manufacture, yet Novo Nordisk charges Americans nearly $1,000 per month for the drug. [3]

The available evidence indicates that the research and production costs for Ozempic are a small fraction of the final retail price charged to patients. The significant markup between manufacturing costs and consumer prices has led to calls for the drug manufacturer to lower prices.[4]

The drug would not have come to market if it could only 'still be profitable'

> I recall people telling James Cameron that he should leave the Titanic alone

I think HumblyTossed is suggesting this group do exactly what Cameron did: investigate and document but not remove. If this is Earhart's plane, it's probably also her grave. We generally frown on disturbing the resting places of the dead for commercial purposes.

What "worth" do you see in placing it in a museum?

What's the killer app of the iPhone 15?

They are releasing something like 50 new games, though they aren't making them exclusive, which follows what consoles seem to do now too.

The killer app for me has been being able to hop on to a VR game with my friends and somewhat feel like we're in the same room. It's too hard to get together frequently, and even setting up a VR 'date' is hard, but it's something.
