Not sure how you define large scale but there are religions who do have a moral objection or at least rules around Ivf. As an example for Catholics each embryo must be treated as sacred and respected as human life. If you have extra embryos you must do everything possible to respect that life (ie transfer the embryos to someone in need and/or keep in cryo until that can happen). These rules aren’t typically known because ivf is a small minority of people that actually go through the process.
Thanks for posting. I figured this issue wasn't just chrome. Been meaning to switch to BW and this might be the kick I needed instead of 'just living with it' anymore.
I don't think that claim can be proven yet. It takes a bit for that research to come out to say it may or may not and this is a relatively new product.
Previously working for a company that did create some less than lethal equipment, I can say few main reasons. One being proprietary knowledge into the devices as well as capabilities to get specific chemicals required to manufacture some of which are highly regulated. The other and probably the largest reason is the margins (profits) and quantities produced are not that large. This is normally why you see defense contractors who have other means of profits do this since its something they can bundle into a sale for law enforcement. That would be my main guess for import low need and cheaper to just import stock vs setting up an entire factory not to mention the requirements necessary to store the chemicals safely. The image in the article does do a good job of showing how they have physically separated the buildings on the property.
Now I'm curious if they should do this for women's voices getting lower. It sounds like it to me that they are. Lady gaga and Lana Del Rey come to mind for recent examples.
I'd say it was when they decided to get rid of star ratings for thumbs up thumbs down ratings, but I think that original content was close to the same time.
Other funny thing on that is if you are a citizen of one of the five eyes and china was putting a backdoor into phones it would probably wouldn't matter too much since they have little influence on you unlike say your own gov having that same capability and using it.
There isn't though unfortunately. If you allow it audit trail or not it can and will be abused. FISA court being an example of that exact type of warrant abuse. Even without a warrant someone would have to hold the master key or keys that any nation state would go to great lengths if they weren't in possession of them and if that did hold it; they will abuse it.
They seem to unlock most of this info though by attacking the endpoint itself anyway.
>The controversial so-called “ghost protocol” has been fiercely opposed by companies, civil society organizations and some security experts – but intelligence and law enforcement agencies continue to lobby for it.
Even if it it was possible I think the bigger question is do we want to live in a society where any and all conversations can be ease-dropped on? I get the point that they want it for investigations, but its been proven over and over that if there is a way it will be abused.
Would intelligence and LE also be ok with that same rules applying to them?
I've always looked at the polygraph as not really a lie detector but more so as the person taking it believe their own statements or doesn't get nervous.
I laughed just reading the headline. Hard to argue their logic though if people are trying to convert people to veggies that look & taste like meat then it should be ok to do the reverse as well even though its probably more in jest than anything.
I hope it stays in Minneapolis and doesn't spread outside of the city for a number of reasons. I enjoy living in a neighborhood of houses and families where we have some space and nature visible vs tar and housing complexes. Its one of the reasons why I don't live in or closer to Minneapolis.
It seemed like they were on a path to make everything iOS including the laptops. Granted it was more of a iOS-ification, but seemed like the general direction. Now I'm curious if this is a shift in direction if they are going to split ipads from ios.
