I wonder what made youTube decide to fix this loophole? These days the vast majority of people use phone apps or smart TVs to watch. The number of people using Firefox plus ad blockers must be quite small and it'll be a constant effort to keep updating their anti ad block algorithms.

This seems like a playbook answer to a question about a subject that's of little immediate importance to his administration, but of some importance to a minority in both Argentina and Britain. Basically saying to his electorate "we haven't forgotten" and to Britain "we're not going to do anything".

From this photo, this woman looks like the baddie from Men In Black 2.

Browsers made the Internet usable for the general population. The Internet as we know it would have remained a network for academia, governments and large corporations. Smartphones would not have been developed. Without a reason for everyone's homes to be connected to a high speed network, TV would remain the remit of cable and satellite broadcasting - no streaming services.

About 10 years ago they provided medical data from the samples. I used 23 And Me too confirm that a health problem I'd recently been diagnosed with was hereditary. At the time I remember being asked if my sample could be used to aid the type of research the OP talks about and I agreed to it.

A couple of years ago, I think 23 And Me was bought out by Virgin Healthcare, at that point I asked them to destroy all my data was worried about it being used to increase the cost of or preclude health insurance.

Under 3 minutes? What's the rush, these are forever chemicals, they've got all the time in the world.

For me it's good, let's me leave emails on the server so my desktop can read them too. Let's me reply below or above and compose in ascii. Doesn't impose ways of working I don't want.

Car engine injector cleaner and almost any add-it-yourself fuel additive.

I lived less than 2 miles from a coal power station (until they pulled it down). By the owners own admission, when it was running, it released about 60kg of radioactive material a year from stuff that was in the coal.

The robot uprising has begun.

This billionaire, rather than trying to wing-it and design his own submarine, is enlisting the services of a company that has already designed, built, and used a number of record setting deep-sea manned submarines.

I've given the 3x noodles a go. Although banning them seems ridiculous, in the words of Big Clive, "why do they even say chicken" https://youtu.be/FH5vp-VyZFU "So spicy they're banned in Denmark" would look good on the packet though.

Works well as a lasagne topping.

AM radio costs nothing to implement, that's not why it's absent from me cars. Many modern cars use some form of brushless motor in the power train. The inverters for these motors work at a frequency that interferes with AM radio reception at close range. Manufacturers can add it back to cars (probably by an over the air software update as many radios are SDR), but it'll just pick up whistling when the car's moving.

... but it's got electrolytes.
