Yes there were oxygen scrubbers on-board that had an estimated endurance to provide clean air for about 5 days for 5 people.
It has come out that it is wildly untested and optimistic estimate. The longest mission they had conducted onboard was 12 hours. So the theoretical limit may not be realistic. If there was panic onboard, that would increase oxygen usage dramatically, which could cut as much as 25% off the estimate (which is nearly a day in this case).
They’re saying that an attacker would register variations of similar looking domains relying on the OCR misreading the correct URL. They aren’t suggesting that an attacker would paste the invalid URL in real life menus.
The whole point of QR codes is to paste URLs in real life. For non-real-life use cases even QR codes are unnecessary and people would just use links. For that, yes, typo-squatting and phishing are issues.
I'm suggesting that for real life we could just use URLs and OCR instead of QR codes.

No, because that's not reliable, and way more complicated and error-prone.
It's the same reason bar codes are used instead of directly the id they code.
Your earlier solution doesn't convince me. It's interesting, but not practical, and reading the URL should work even if internet is off or the server is down.
(Having a checksum next to the URL may start making OCR practical though)
You can setup multiple pre-moves, but each one takes a minimum of 0.1 seconds. Lichess doesn't have this minimum time requirement, so it doesn't let you setup multiple pre-moves.
This is not true. It is exceedingly rare for paper cards to be nerfed or buffed. The only real notable example is with the Companion mechanic from a few years ago. Wizard's solution is to ban problematic cards.
SpinupWP makes self-hosting WordPress sites really simple. Rarely do you ever need to actually make any changes to your server. You can just give it a Digital Ocean box to connect to, and it provides a UI to create sites and manage everything.
It is up to the theme to output a visual link to the RSS feed, but unless disabled, WordPress itself will always output a `<link rel="alternate" ...>` tag with an RSS feed.
You can't do micro payments with credit cards, they have to much $$ overhead. You'd need to pay into a service that'd handle the micro-payments and they'd have minimal packages to buy to mitigate these issues.
the thing that scares me is that Pfizer is "only" ~75% against B.1.351. I'm not worried right now, and I've relaxed a ton since before, but I'm nervous that B.1.351 and other vaccine-resistant strains will rise to prominence once enough people are vaccinated.
"The effectiveness against any documented infection with the B.1.351 variant was 75.0% (95% CI, 70.5 to 78.9). Vaccine effectiveness against severe, critical, or fatal disease due to infection with any SARS-CoV-2 (with the B.1.1.7 and B.1.351 variants being predominant within Qatar) was very high, at 97.4% (95% CI, 92.2 to 99.5). Sensitivity analyses confirmed these results (Table S3)."
so it's still quite effective at preventing severe illness, which is why I'm not terribly worried, but still spooky that strains are starting to mutate away from our protection.
And so we will synth a new one in a 2 weeks, just like the last one. The important thing is that we have a cold supply distribution chain, readily available production for mRNA synthesis, and emergency authorizations, which will become regular vax authorizations when it is shown to be a new cutting edge technique and a new golden age in fighting viral infections. Go, go ASAP. Get it. It won’t be your last. But it might be the last of viral cancers, covs, hiv…
Neither of them need to be true for a critical mass of vaccinated people to demand for restrictions to be rescinded. Eventually politicians will realize they need to get re-elected and cave to pressure. It will happen, especially with this new guidance from the CDC. I would bet there are no state wide mask mandates by Jan 1, 2022.
Edit: Minnesota will be ending their mask mandate tomorrow.
I cant wait for the businesses that demand masks to be disconnected from the ability to operate by market pressures
Most brick and mortar was barely viable during the best market in history so all we gotta do is wait! And also not go to them lol have fun with that gofundme
Disagreed politically? I’m talking about major markets like California opening up, not whatever happens already in Georgia or Florida. So I think these more risk averse jurisdictions will also have a few businesses that try to maintain independent restrictions without support from the state, and I think they will have lost tolerance from their entire population or market base by then (a few weeks from now). This is not political, as the Federal government and the state government will be of the same political leaning. Nice try though.
I think the parent's main objection is that you seem to be showing glee at the prospect of a business failing because it shows an overabundance of caution even after the state no longer requires it. That's... kinda petty, no? Especially when wearing a mask inside a store or whatever isn't a particularly difficult thing to do.
Not parent but although i disagree with them, i kinda get where they're coming from.
Some businesses give in to security theater and it is immensely frustrating. For example here in Belgium some shops force you to take a trolley even if you just want to buy a single item and have your own bag. They do this "because COVID". So what happens? A pile up of people at the entrance trying to move caddies over, leading to far more risk there than there otherwise would be if you left people to their own device.
Our swimming pools are open, but they closed the showers "because COVID". So what happens? People are gross, get in the water right away, don't soap up or whatever, and it's far less clean/healthy than it would be for no good reason.
Overabundance of caution is not always a good excuse.
I have no idea what happens in Belgium, but nothing like that happens here in the US. They barely ask people to wear a goddamn mask, and they are all up in arms about it.
So, nothing like Belgium then, and exactly what I described: people being asked to wear a mask and not doing it.
I don’t know the circumstances of the situation you mention, but it hardly qualifies as security theatre. Also, I doubt they screamed ‘not approved’ but I guess no anti-mask narrative sounds dire enough without a little exaggeration.
Oh, I knew. I was just pointing out that even in the scenario he described it didn't even approximate to what you describe as happening in Belgium (which to be clear, I completely believe).
I’m fine with a business underperforming when it’s due to an over-abundance of any type of decision making. Too large salaries, expand too quickly, charge too much, charge too little, ask too much of customers, whatever it is, I hope businesses which make better decisions do better.
I am expressing glee at the accelerated failure of barely viable businesses.
Its 100% Machiavellian.
Many businesses could have made their patrons equity owners but instead went for the gofundme as nondilutive capital. Many bad tastes in my mouth, so long and goodnight. Evictions restarting soon too.
Official reports have been saying 40 hours a few hours ago.
