Bacon is a superfood

Raw potatoes are a superfood

Poppy seeds are a superfood

Vodka is a superfood

*because superfood is a meaningless marketing term

Time for a joke about zero Megagrams

No, you'd need at the very least 2000 logical qubits to break some relatively outdated encryption, this one only has 105 physical qubits (and at their current rate they'd need over 1000 physical qubits for every logical qubit)

and even if you had that, you might still run into other problems

so this seems like a promising breakthrough but it's still nowhere close to breaking encryption

to top it off, the problem was a "serverHold" which as I understand can only be initiated by the top-level domain registrar, so the only way to make sure it doesn't happen again is not to use a .io domain

It's "real" in that the police shared the picture: https://x.com/NYPDnews/status/1864706407985221974

though the clothing seems different from an earlier picture, especially with this one having big front pockets in the jacket. so there's claims that it is not the same suspect.

if you totally ignore the second study, sure

Actual research finds that annual "deaths caused due to lack of insurance" is around 40-50 thousand (https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC2775760/)

and "if the usa had healthcare as good as france, 101 thousand annual deaths would be prevented" (https://www.reuters.com/article/us-deaths-rankings-idUSN0765165020080108/)

as for war deaths, the ~100 thousand barrier is breached when all wars back to the korean war (1950-1953) are included. Then world war 2 is massively over

so the literal truth of the original statement is that it's maybe mostly correct if you consider "our wars" to only be wars that the usa played a key role in starting, and only count the last century, but false if not

(eg. the civil war would totally blow the number out of the water, world war 2 would totally blow the number out of the water, and with the unpopular vietnam war it would depend on what exactly your standards of "lack of access to medical care" are)
