It’s paywalled for me.

Toshiba may also attempt to ship as many high-end HDDs to its American stock as possible before country-specific tariffs kick in this July to grab some extra market share.

Interesting. So prices and availability might change dramatically worldwide in/after July.

What’s special about Singapore?

That’s the longest time I’ve ever heard someone take to build up a comeback. Be on your guard!

a chewing gum made from lablab beans, Lablab purpureus—that naturally contain an antiviral trap protein (FRIL)—to neutralize two herpes simplex viruses (HSV-1 and HSV-2) and two influenza A strains (H1N1 and H3N2). The chewing gum formulation allowed for effective and consistent release of FRIL at sites of viral infection.

They demonstrated that 40 milligrams of a two-gram bean gum tablet was adequate to reduce viral loads by more than 95%, a reduction similar to what they saw in their SARS-CoV-2 study.

No, never did find it… But I’m pretty sure now that pen really was his. It was just a mildly unlikely coincidence that he had one just like mine.

I felt at the time that I’d been conned out of some things in the past, and that had me set a bit too hard on “not being fooled again”, so I overdid it.

One particular case I remember is exchanging toy cars with someone, and them claiming later that day that they lost the car i just gave them. So I spent a good few minutes looking for it with them. I even insisted “no, let’s look again” when they suggested we give up. I felt bad that they’d lost out on our exchange, so I gave them back the car they’d given me, just to ease their misfortune. Only to hear the next day how they’d been bragging about fooling me. Gah.

I had a similar thing with a pen, the very same year I think… I had a mildly special pen which one day I lost. Went looking for it and found it sitting on a (slightly older) classmate’s desk, so i grabbed it and said “hey, that’s mine”. He tried to pretend that no, it was his, and he sounded very convincing about it, and even got the teacher involved. They both looked at me with infuriatingly condescending expressions as I explained how it was mine.

The teacher suggested “just let him have it” to the classmate, who conceded.

I went back to my desk fuming and scratched my initials into it before returning to show them, "look, see, it was mine! The classmate immediately pointed out “you scratched those in just now” and I think I mumbled something incoherent before going back to my desk, to the teacher’s mortification with the whole situation.

It had already begun dawning on me at this point that the classmate was right… That wasn’t my pen. It was his and just looked like mine. But it was too late at this point and I didn’t know how to handle it other than to keep quiet and try to forget about it.

I will be messaging you in 7 days on 2025-04-07 10:06:96 UTC to remind you that there is no RemindMe! bot on lemmy.

Ok, that could be true. I assumed they meant the “building” phase that some frameworks go through.

Except… the compilation step doesn’t add type safety to JS.

As an aside, type safety hasn’t been something I truly miss in JS, despite how often it’s mentioned.

The mass of the visible universe is apparently enough to make a black hole with an event horizon ten times larger than the visible universe’s. I don’t understand how that hasn’t happened already, but apparently it just doesn’t look like it’s happened (“unless…”).

Pulls deeply on the cigarette, stomps it out and then waves the pistol’s barrel towards a dark corner of the room.

You meant to type 32, but by putting a full stop after it makes it look like “1.” on a lot of clients because of markup interpretation.

No scam. She’s just a lonely girl who can’t believe no-one here is taking her seriously… Tragic story as old as time.

Oh, sweet summer grandpa…

Are you similarly concerned about the recruitment practices in the aggressor country? Having sensitivities so attuned to these things, surely you must have at least equal concerns about Russia.

Would you like to describe those concerns? Perhaps also include some links and examples that have inflamed you in particular?

Or a duck.

I’m not the OC, but the Japanese have two good words for related things that are not quite as rare as you’d expect: Hikikomori and Jōhatsu.
