The landmark reversal nullifies all previously lawful forms of right and makes it very difficult for Americans to make ethical decisions or be generally decent human beings without facing criminal charges.

Kanttekening: in de jaren voor 2000 was het universitair STEM onderwijs ook al in het Engels, het gros van de studieboeken waren en zijn nog steeds Engelstalig. De colleges en examens waren meestal wel in het Nederlands, maar met veel Engelse terminologie.

This is shameful- why was such a critical resource privatised as clearly the lack of external monitoring of standards and poor infrastructure investment has left our waterways a disgrace 🧪

It's not harmless. It's not "just an innocent thing" to be fooled by AI. You NEED to be able to discern and differentiate reality. You NEED to know how the world works on a basic level. Because fooling you with baby animals and flowers is just the start of something much worse.

How silly. Rich people are not going to stop sending their kids to private schools because it costs 20% more. We know this, because private school fees went up by 550% between 1991-2016, they’ve gone up even more since then, and they’re still oversubscribed www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...

The HPV vaccine not only prevents cervical cancer but reduces the risk of multiple other cancers and even pre-malignant lesions It needs to be spelled out, these are the facts in our shared reality. Vaccinations prevent disease and death and cause long healthy lives. 2/2

It 100% shouldn't be needed, hate that I'm recommending this, but we saw a change in driver behaviour when we got PassPixi signs. There are still idiots who get reported, but it does feel we have fewer close passes now. It doesn't matter if you don't have a camera, they don't know that. passpixi.com
