Yep, Mumble is the most common, and there are still a couple groups that use Teamspeak.

Discord caps at 100 people in a call while I've seen good Mumble servers handle over 800.

Toothpaste my guy, it'll clean up scratches real good.

IIRC undercovers have, in the past, taken drugs to 'fit in' and keep their cover. The guidance to undercovers is probably 'try to avoid it' but the directive of 'don't get caught' and 'try not to die' probably override that.

I think the argument you are making makes sense. Harm reduction and rehabilitation is the way, not this dumb prison system we have.

I believe you mistake an aspect of his argument. I don't believe he meant to insinuate that prison and harm reduction are mutually exclusive, rather he says that the question is whether prison is punishment or harm reduction. If there's no free will there's no reason to punish, but there's certainly reason to reduce the possibility of harm, and jailing an individual that is causing harm (and will continue to do so) is one way of doing that.

As someone else in this thread put it, if we could jail hurricanes to prevent them from doing harm, we would.

Different outcomes at an individual level supports the idea that individual humans are not exact copies existing in the exact same environment. If on the other hand different outcomes does support free will then the fact that electrons put through the same process (influences) can end up with different spin-states means that electrons have free will.

Hell, 10/100base-t only uses four wires so you could run internet through a 4-pole 3.5; though YMMV depending on the particular 3.5mm's specs. I don't know if drivers would be a problem, but perhaps a 4-pole 3.5 to USB would be handy.

I mean... the title is pretty clear; it's a 'warning' of a 'risk', not an announcement of the current situation. A risk is a possibility, and a warning of a risk must come before it is unfolding.

If by 'String/Quantum' you mean String Theory and quantum physics then you are wrong on the latter (and somewhat even the former). Quantum physics doesn't replace classical physics nor are they necessarily in opposition, and quantum physics is as much a theory as classical physics; so bashing one for being 'theory' is just as true for the other. And quantum physics is certainly in common use as you simply cant do anything at the atomic level without it. For example, any modern computer would not be able to function if quantum physics wasn't used to inform their design; in the same vein a modern computer would not function if classical physics was used to design them. It's important to remember that the word 'theory' in this context doesn't mean unproven, rather it describes a collection of confirmed, falsifiable, explanations of the natural world.

As for String Theory, it shouldn't be thought of as equivalent in scale to quantum physics, it's really just an optional framework within quantum physics that attempts to describe the fundamental nature of particles in a way that supports quantum gravity. Due to this its usage is confined to theoretical physics and is dependent on which aspects of a system is being investigated, but it's still used in some situations as its one of the best supported tools available.

I guess my main point is that quantum physics isn't fringe theory that shows up only in theoretical work, it's very much a requirement for all fields and is thereby prevalent and very much in common use. I have a CS degree and many of my courses touched on quantum mechanics, from pnp/npn transistor design to quantum-annealing/gate proof cryptography, without getting too into the mechanics/math as we were not physicists.

I always loved the how the line "rise up lights" when pronounced with an American or English accent is 'razor blades' in an Australian accent.

I mean, you are correct, it was not two fish. But is 64 fish some sort of good sample size?

Given the results, it is significant.

Follow up question: does this type of thing accumulate in small fish and then concentrate in larger and larger fish?

No, tritium is treated by organisms just like normal H2O, bioaccumulation is no problem.

The Vatican is its own country, they don't pay themselves taxes.

No, this is the media conflating the publics perception of physical security and cybersecurity to make a story. If you ask an average person how hard it is to steal money from a casino they'd say it's next to impossible, but if instead you asked them how hard it was to hack their attached hotel's booking system they'd say they had no idea.
