ICU/hospital utilization in Toronto is *lower* than normal right now.
Yes, lower.
"I got the feeling very early on that many health professionals were using COVID to fight a proxy war against what they see as a chronically underfunded health care system."
He's right. Unfortunately, using tactics like that is unbelievably dishonest. I think you can make a good argument it should be criminal fraud.
Study measuring viral particle shedding with an without surgical masks, with symptomatic people who are actually infected with influenza, rhinovirus (colds), and coronaviruses (also common colds).
Results: the masks didn't do very much for either influeza or rhinoviruses, and not enough people were infected with coronavirus to know if the results are valid.
Better yet, here's what they say to you if you want to try to run a mainnet validation node.
So decentralized you have to ask permission.
I'm gonna have to send them an email for lols.
$9,000 incentive to falsely claim you died of COVID. They're getting desperate to pump up COVID deaths.
Fact is, reported US deaths from COVID just keep falling in spite of all this hype about variants.
lololol They're actually rolling out Intel SGX coin.
"MobileCoin is a payment network with no central authority."
That is a lie. Intel is a central authority if you rely on SGX.
Gov. DeSantis on media lies, "we're punching back"
This could get interesting if he has any guts.

Texas Rangers vs Blue Jays today. 100% full to capacity, hardly any masks.
...yet cases, deaths, positivity rate, and long-term-care cases are all continuing to go down after a month with all lockdown restrictions lifted: https://www.wfaa.com/article/news/local/texas-hitting-record-low-numbers-covid-19-cases-hospitalizations-deaths-positivity-rate-statistics-april-2021/287-4723aa91-4172-4361-b90f-958f881dcb0c
TIL my microwave uses 100% of the 15A a North American plug can provide.
The voltage on that circuit doesn't sag appreciably from 120V under load, so it's using 200W more than the nameplate says it should, 1600W.
I'm a bit surprised that Black & Decker used such close margins; my kettle draws a more reasonable 13A.
It's no wonder they changed the building codes here to require 20A outlets in kitchens... 😂
Lol, BitPay is so hilariously useless.
For research purposes I actually went through that nonsense. They wanted a photo of my passport (NOT a scan!), a selfie which had to be taken on my phone (uploading a photo was NOT good enough), and of course my address and date of birth.
...and after all that nonsense, the invoice timed out, so I couldn't pay anyway. So I don't know if they still do the payment protocol nonsense - BitPay is such a joke that they probably do. 😂
How accurate is this translation?
