I took a trip to Mumbai last year and immediately developed a cold after arriving. When I mentioned it to my friends I was there to see they said that's totally normal for people visiting just due to the air pollution. It's no joke.
And then imagine living in New Delhi where the air pollution is on average nearly 3x worse than Mumbai.
There's nothing to be gained from Cloudflare lying about this. It honestly makes them look worse if the outage was caused internally vs if it had been due to an attack
My mom swears by drinking something through a straw during conversations where you think you might cry. I have yet to try it out myself, but maybe it'll work for you :)
I'd amend this to say 'know what the seasonal conditions are for your area and plan accordingly.' In Washington for example Spring is generally too cold for comfortable camping (the temperature typically drops to ~30-45 during at night). While August/September is peak wildfire season nowadays. So June, July, early August are your best bets unless you're happy toughing out the cold or the smoke.
Alohaha is great for this, it feels like sitting on a beach at night. Also in that theme are Green Arrow by Yo La Tengo and Island Music by Tennis.
When I got mine in they gave me local anesthesia, and it was still the most painful experience of my life. Turns out rummaging around in your innards produces a type of pain unlike anything I've ever felt. I truly can't imagine how awful it must be without any anesthesia.
I mean vaccines aren't always 100%. If you've been vaccinated you'll have a much stronger immune response, but it is still possible to get measles if you've been vaccinated. 2 doses of the MMR vaccine is on average 97% effective in preventing measles infection (per Mayo Clinic https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/measles/expert-answers/getting-measles-after-vaccination/faq-20125397).
The bigger issue (like with Covid shots, flu shots, and everything else) is that there are elderly & immunocompromised folks who can't get vaccines. Their immune systems aren't strong enough to handle the small dose in the innoculation. So the only way those people are protected is through herd immunity, relying on the rest of us to protect ourselves and our community.
Real talk, do you chomp it raw like chips? Or do you like . . . suck on it until it softens??
I'm a ho for orecchiette, I just love how toothsome it is. Maybe not the absolute #1 for sauce retention but I'm all about that texture.
I have to recommend my #1 favorite focaccia recipe https://alexandracooks.com/2018/03/02/overnight-refrigerator-focaccia-best-focaccia/. It's super duper easy and basically foolproof, it just requires patience on the cold rise. I've never had any issues with it as long as the yeast is good and the water temp is right (~105-115f).
Absolutely this! Octavia Butler literally wrote a fascist American president with the slogan "Make America Great Again" in 1993.
And we do! Usually it's American/British kids that get caught after going after high profile targets because they're kids and they're dumb. Some of the more well known groups (e.g. Scattered Spider, The Com) specifically recruit minors to do the hands on keyboard operations because they're less likely to get time than adults. Most resourced hackers are not stupid enough to launch operations against Western organizations from countries with extradition agreements.
