@HilzFuld OMFG!

@DrNeilStone Brother, preaching to the choir. “Provider” is a term meant to muddle the difference between physicians and midlevels.

Your cell phone does not listen to you “by accident.” It's a feature, not a bug.

I talked about traveling to Rome just once and 10 minutes later I started getting flight ads.

It's called “Shadow-Logging” and it happens through 5 settings you've never touched.

Here's how to remove eavesdropping once and for all:

His internet has been slow for 6 months. So, he paid Comcast to upgrade his tier.

Speeds got worse.

He called Comcast again. They blamed his router. He bought a new one. Still slow.

He called a third time. They sent a technician out. The tech ran a speed test from inside the modem and said:"Speeds are fine on our end. Must be your devices."

A neighbor who works in IT came over the next weekend with his laptop.

He looked at the router for two minutes, opened the admin panel, and pointed at four settings on the screen.

"Comcast pushed a firmware update last year. They enabled all four of these silently. This is why your internet is slow. This is why every Comcast customer's internet got slower around the same time."

Here's exactly what he found and turned off. 🧵

Ukrainian ambassador to the UN @MelnykAndrij:

I'm not sure that I will have any appetite to visit Moscow. Even when Russia is defeated, even when and after Putin's regime has collapsed, even after Russia has paid war reparations, even when the next government in Russia were to beg on its kneels for an apology, even after all the Russian war criminals will be sentenced, there will be no reconciliation between Ukraine and Russia for decades, maybe for centuries.

I will even refuse to visit Moscow as a member of the Ukraine delegation that will travel to Russia to witness Russia's signature of its declaration of capitulation.

@visegrad24 Just a few dozen murders, no big deal. A couple chats with psychiatrists and he’s ready to contribute to society. I’m sure the families of all those killed understand.

@Dashytwo Umm… math doesn’t work

@WeriBomb Belt buckle, untucked shirt, leans forward against stuff. Take it from a chubby guy. 🤷🏻‍♂️

@Gabriele_Corno Possibly the most beautiful cat I’ve ever seen

@Kristinartz “That’s ok. I gotta take a dump anyway”

May the fourth be with you

[The Jewish Idea @TheJewishIdea]

This is a powerful 4 minutes. Want to understand how Jews are feeling? Watch this.

Acting CDC head cancels publication of a study showing Covid vaccine sharply cut odds of hospitalization and ER visits. Agency veterans say they've never seen an article pulled after being cleared by scientists and scheduled for publication. @apoorva_nyc https://t.co/vGKGOajbsH

[Neil Stone @DrNeilStone]

RFK Jr and his CDC are blocking a study showing Covid vaccines work because it destroys their anti vaccine scam

[Neil Stone @DrNeilStone]

There should be NO pharmaceutical ads on TV

Ban them immediately

[Steven Mann @stevenmann1964]

@EricTopol Holy crap!
