I remember finding some neat little fossils, likely at the McAbee Fossil Beds. Unfortunately I was young at the time, and they were lost when we moved.
They have been releasing these updates fairly often ever since that big redesign, it's nice to see, but I imagine a lot of people don't want to risk an upgrade halfway through a paper/project.
I went through a similar line of thinking when deciding whether to post this. I'm hoping this last bit is true for anyone that is affected by this, maybe it can be an off-ramp towards finding more positive sources of happiness:
Some people, she says, are realizing through these sites that their shopping habits aren’t serving them — and are looking for ways to consume less and make more intentional choices.
That's my bad for writing it poorly. I meant to say that about the premise of not needing internet, since someone who has internet on both devices might have better ways to transfer the files.
Someone would need to plan ahead and install the PWA (or some compatible tool) in order for this to work
I wouldn't use this day to day, but what I found cool was:
it doesn't require cables or any additional equipment (including routers, cell towers)
it can't be detected by anything, assuming you toss a blanket over the transfer
The downside is that if you wanted to get it truly offline, you would need to have thean app installed on both devices ahead of time, if I understood it correctly. (Edit: bolded bits are new)
It did lead to some fun discussion in this thread :)
Just an odd patchy incomplete list that seems to be put together using different evaluation criteria.
Since it's a lesser known Wikipedia article, it probably has been. Some community contributions would likely help, if anyone is experienced with contributing to wikipedia
I didn't intend for it to sound like that, and reading my comment again I see that I should have expanded on it further. I'm hoping my posting history can show where I stand on issues like this.
What I should have said was that delivery services can be helpful for the elderly or those with disabilities, and that legislation on delivery services can help us improve access to those without the harms of these current robots.
For what it's worth, we don't have these robots where I am, so I didn't know how bad it was. In person, I've only seen a few that were sitting around our university plaza last fall. I looked online, and it looks like we don't currently have any here. I will keep what you've mentioned in mind when talking about these bots moving forward, especially if our local politicians are going to be deciding on them in the near future.
Often with these discussions, automation is brought up as a way to bridge the gaps that current public funding can't fulfill.
I also recently read about how some cities have a thriving bike/scooter sharing program, while others are suffering from mismanagement, excessive prices, and chaos; and how it came down to whether the programs were started as a public project or if they were led by tech companies. So in my earlier comment, I was tying information to this story and saying that regulated and/or publicly managed delivery options might be a better thing to focus energy on
I'd like to see a comparison of the long term economic costs of these accidents with just dealing with them early on. Or even entombing them the way we do nuclear waste.
I find it similar to Technology Connections, where even if I'm not interested in the topic before I watch the video, I still get something out of it afterwards :)
I think you are misunderstanding the goal of this. The article says that men "are less likely to ask doctors for help with a range of symptoms". Addressing this is a part of addressing toxic masculinity and historic inequities, and a part of the broader work of finding the appropriate healthcare intervention for each person instead of the traditional one size fits all approach.
I would rather that men go to doctors for health advice instead of trying to fix it on their own, or worse, going to online influencers for advice. Figuring out why that happens is a step towards changing it for the better. If this work actually produces results, it will be good for both men and women.
Nice!

I might have to organize a road trip next summer
I haven't been to that one, I should try it sometime.
I remember Barkerville from over a decade ago. I wonder what, if anything, they've changed since then

Ah yes, Zevulon The Great
Is there more light pollution in that spot? That could be why you aren't seeing as much as before, if the light polution got worse since then
You are in this comic strip too :)

To expand on where my thinking was coming from, I have read first person accounts from people who can't leave their homes easily, and also how existing delivery programs are helpful but don't have the capacity to meet everyone that needs it: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/seniors-grocery-app-delivery-anjel-vancouver-1.4938035

These bots can be helpful for the elderly or those with disabilities. It's probably more effective to legislate them at the municipal level.
Good luck! 😄
Is the outhouse for something, or is the goal just to build an outhouse?
Nice! That seems to be a common sentiment, I'll have to see it soon
I was also hoping that the article would explain why. I was guessing that with certain chemicals, it might dilute it enough to become harmless.
But instead, the closest I found was this, which cited cost as the reason: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Submerged_munitions
I'd like to see a comparison of the long term economic costs of these accidents with just dealing with them early on. Or even entombing them the way we do nuclear waste.
I also found this article and map

Sorry about that, done!

The prevalence is pretty high globally
