This is why I was having issues watching Youtube 1.5 hours ago. I thought it was my internet, kept doing all kinds of stuff because I was having slow internet in general.
I wonder if this is because people are dating more before getting married, which probably leads to more mature people who know what they're looking for in a spouse.
Yeah, getting married at 16-20 was pretty much the norm before. Women expecting to have careers instead of their parents just trying to get them married off. Just a whole mind-shift from 50 years ago.
I have only had getting the steam client to launch, and only after a fresh install. This was mainly on OpenSUSE a few years ago; I could get it working maybe 2/3 times after a fresh install, depending on whether I installed all the hacks in the correct order. Once it started up, I never had problems booting it again.
If we ever have a pathogen like Archaea I will shit my pants. Prions already are able to survive 242F for 15 minutes and caustic chemicals so we already have enough on our plates.
I'm going to pose something that was interesting when the Chief Medical Officer of NASA spoke at my school: bacteria in space will have massive amounts of genetic changes -> bacteria on a Mars mission may become pathogenic to the point where we would not want people who traveled to Mars to come back. He also talked about intracranial hypertension being an issue with people going into space and how to remedy that one. It was fascinating to hear a physician in charge of astronauts talk about what medical challenges needs to be overcome.
Most hyperthermophilic archaea die well below many bacterial sporulation temperatures already. Additionally, most hyperthermophilic organisms can't live at body temperature, as that's too low, let alone reproduce AND fight off a host immune system. Prions are a special case and not particularly virulent because they aren't genetically tractable.
When you look at the bacteria that generate spores, the only population that is usually affected is neonates; which is why it's advised not to give honey to anyone under the age of 1-2. For spore forming bacteria, they're not prevalent in the environment and their transmission is usually limited.
We had our computers go down for ~12 hours one day. Paper charts came out, which was a massive undertaking. I could not imagine my system being down for 5 weeks.
Reuters TV[0] is pretty good for this too, you can even set how much time you want to watch it and it will pair down the information. Extremely boring for the most part.
My buddy moved into a closet there ~4 years ago now. His rent was something like $2,500 per month. I am living in an apartment now that has twice the space and better ammenities while only pay $1,000 per month. My friend has since moved to Denver because mainly of price.
Bachelor's degrees only went down slightly, which isn't too surprising. What's worrying to me is that associates and certificates have dropped significantly. Both are primarily for individuals who are in lower socioeconomic status categories, which is more emblematic that there is a problem than anything else.
In the Netherlands no-one of any importance sincerely believed US intelligence, because nobody trusted Bush. But the thinking here was "Well, it's the US and they have us by the balls. The diplomatic thing is to say we understand their stance on Irak."
