Iโve never seen it but enjoyed the books. I know a few things have been reimagined for the show - but I wonder if Iโm going to enjoy it (or just get grumpy)?
@ImpossibleUmbrella I loved the books (though itโs been over 40 years since I read them), and I love the show, but as many people have pointed out, the show is its own story with the same name and some of the same characters and ideas. If you go into it hoping for some quality sci-fi, I think youโll be quite happy, but if you are wanting a TV adaptation of the books, you may not like it.
Oh, yes. You've been most discrete. Thank you, Sir!

Maybe consider blocking threatlandscape.io and threatlandscape.ai and donate that money to @jerry and his platform instead. I assume they're mostly just scraping fedi for their "intel" anyway.
ThreatLandscape.ai is live Natural language AI copilot for threat intelligence that answers security questions with continuously updated intel, so teams get insights fast without hunting data manually.

@SecurityWriter Indeed. But literally, though: Is there a reliable distinguishing feature set to identify requests from the scrapers? 'Cause if so, it would be funny to send them plausible crap to poison their data.
@deFractal @SecurityWriter not really. The scrapers are getting quite good at using legit user agent strings and hopping around on different IPs. I've resorted to blocking some problematic ASNs, but that seems to barely make a dent. I have been playing a bit with anubis, but it's tough to integrate with Fastly (so far)

For a couple of decades as a professional pilot, I flew people who were pretty rich. One odd thing I found is that rich people are surprisingly unattractive. They use their money to get people to hang around with them and, I believe, know that, without that money, they would be nobodies. To me, they were nobodies with the money, too. The one person who really was attractive was the daughter of one of our aircraft owners. She was adopted.

As areas of uncontrolled cell growth, cancerous growth form a major problem for a multi-celled organism like us humans. Thus before they can begin to affect our long-term prospects of a continued existence, eradicating these cells-gone-wrong is essential. Unfortunately, doing so without affecting healthy cells significantly is tough. Treatments such as chemotherapy are correspondingly rough on the body, while radiation therapy is a lot more directed.

The use of Ultrasound to take on Cancerous Tumors
As areas of uncontrolled cell growth, cancerous growth form a major problem for a multi-celled organism like us humans. Thus before they can begin to affect our long-term prospects of a continued existence, eradicating these cells-gone-wrong is essential. Unfortunately, doing so without affecting healthy cells significantly is tough. Treatments such as chemotherapy are correspondingly rough on the body, while radiation therapy is a lot more directed. Perhaps one of the more fascinating treatments involves ultrasound, with the IEEE Spectrum magazine recently covering one company providing histotripsy equipment. Diagram showing how HIFU can be used to destroy tissue in the body. An acoustic lens is used to focus sound to a small point in the body. (Credit: James Ross McLaughlan, Wikimedia) Ultrasound has found many applications in the medical field far beyond imaging, with therapeutic ultrasound by itself covering a variety of methods to perform actions within the body without breaking the skin. By using high-energy ultrasound, everything from kidney stones to fat cells and cancerous cells can be accurately targeted and destroyed. For liver tumors the application of so-called histotropsy has become quite common, allowing certain types of tumors to be ablated non-invasively after which the body can handle the clean-up.
Histotropsy is a form of high-intensify focused ultrasound (HIFU) that uses either continuous or pulsed waves to achieve the desired effect, with the HIFU transducer equipped with an acoustic lens to establish a focal point. In the case of histotripsy cavitation is induced at this focal point that ends up destroying the local tissue. Beyond liver tumors the expectation is that other tumors will soon be treated in a similar manner, which could be good news for especially solid tumors.
Along with new approaches like CAR T cell immunotherapy, the prospects for cancer becoming a very treatable set of diseases would seem to be brighter than ever.

We understand that the American side is in communication with russia regarding the basic political framework for ending the war. We have formulated our vision, and there must be clear feedback from russia as to whether they are ready to end the war on realistic terms.
