- sithadmin parent300cpm is lower than what you’d be exposed to on a commercial airline flight (400-900ish cpm).
- That’s not unique to PayPal. Pretty much any payment processor that detects a proprietor paying themselves is going to throw up a red flag for circular cash flow fraud and close the account. Bank-operated payment processors are often slower to catch it, but they will also boot you for this.
- Plex does operate a few services that 'free' (or any) streaming may rely on depending on circumstances. Aside from auth, Plex clients that aren't able to discover the server instance locally rely on a Plex-hosted webservice to enumerate available servers. Additionally, there is a client-side config option that allows low resolution streams (720p is the ceiling, I believe) to be proxied via Plex's infrastructure. This setting is referred to as 'indirect connection', if I recall correctly.
- Is poverty really 'designed into our society'? It seems to me that the underlying aspects of poverty - particularly resource scarcity and insecurity - are inherent aspects of the 'state of nature', which are only escapable via the cooperative mechanisms associated with the formation of society and governance. Sure, these things aren't 100% effective at eliminating poverty, but the proposition that poverty is somehow an intentionally baked-in objective seems hyperbolic.
Further, the notion that the USSR failed because "they tried to make a better man" is an absurd whitewashing of Soviet history.
- Yup. ~5% more fructose than table sugar in its most common formulations, actually lower content than table sugar in some formulations (e.g. HFCS-42). The 'high fructose' moniker is derived from a reference to 'pure' corn syrup which is nearly 100% glucose, not a reference to table sugar as commonly assumed.
- Almost certainly a shit memecoin project. The Enron trademark was until recently owned by The College Company, [https://tsdr.uspto.gov/#caseNumber=88914633&caseType=SERIAL_...], a t-shirt and knick-knacks vendor that previously capitalized on the Birds Aren't Real meme (news coverage: https://archive.is/vZvup). It looks like the trademark was handed off to a new entity this year, whose address aligns to 'Ground Control Business Management', which appears to be a firm specializing in financial planning and 'family office' type investment management for wealthy individuals.
Further, Enron.com is currently hosted on Shopify (IP resolves to Shopify; page is stuffed with Shopify web assets if you inspect the source). This makes no sense for a proper corporate web presence outside the retail industry. The College Company's other pages are also built on the Shopify platform.
- It looks like there's a metal(?) frame with rivets, screws used to secure internal electronic components, and the internal wood 'body' seems to be assembled with fastener-less joinery. There are some photos of the cubesat without the frame here: https://www.infoespacial.com/texto-diario/mostrar/4304727/ja...
- The airline booking + awards redemption use case is a mostly solved problem. Harcore milage redemption enthusiasts use paid tools like ExpertFlyer that present a UI and API for peeking into airline reservation backends. It has a steep learning curve, for sure.
ThePointsGuy blog tried to implement something that directly tied into airline accounts to track milage/points and redemption options, but I believe they got slapped down by several airlines for unauthorized scraping. Airlines do NOT like third parties having access to frequent flier accounts.
- No, the prior post's reference to having some degree of control over the sensation, plus a prolonged impact on mental state makes it distinctly ASMR, as opposed to frission which is usually a short-lasting involuntary response. [1]
- >When I say "the real thing" I mean that they are selling semaglutide, which they are obtaining somehow
>So if they are not getting it from producers under license from NN, where are they getting it?
They're obtaining it from pharma labs with the right equipment and talent to produce it. The synthesis process is well understood, it's not like it's a Novo Nordisk secret.
> Why isn't the legality of that path under active legal attack?
It is.
- You're massively misunderstanding that Reddit post, and it doesn't help that the 'HenryMedsInfo' account is misconstruing how the pharma manufacturing supply chain works.
For one, the FDA does not 'license' any manufacturer, period. They do enforce safety and quality standards, but this is not controlled through some sort of a general license, and operates on a per-facility basis.
DMF listing (which isn't a 'license') does not necessarily have any relation to whether that manufacturer is supplying a brand name provider.
The 'license' that account is posting about a complete fiction. There is not a license granted here in any government context, nor a license between NN and the manufacturers the post discusses.
> The compounders are legally selling the real thing directly to customers.
This is debatable. They are not selling 'OEM' NN product to consumers.
Also - stop talking about 'feedstock'. It's weird. It's not standard industry lingo and obscures whatever the hell it is you're talking about (precursors? lyophilized product? something else?)
- Your usage of the term 'feedstock' here is confusing, and it seems like you're probably operating under the erroneous assumption that contract manufacturer supplies commissioned by Novo Nordisk are somehow being routed to compounding pharmacies, which isn't the case.
In practice, there are generic manufacturers for semaglutide, and many other peptides still protected by US patents, mostly located in China. The more reputable of these manufacturers produce these drugs at levels of purity rivaling the 'name brand'. These manufacturers export lyophilized product en masse to middlemen that operate in the grey/black-market 'research chemical' sales market, or ship to compounding pharmacies. The consumers purchasing on the grey/black market reconstitute the drug at home (which requires a trivial level of effort), and assume some extra degree of risk in terms of product purity and sterility. Consumers wanting an extra level of assurance for product quality purchase from a compounding pharmacy that ostensibly is conducting its own assessments of product purity, and following best practices for sterile reconstitution.
- I haven’t read deeply into Apple’s standard for digital ID, but I would assume that it’s implemented the way contactless payment via Apple Pay/Google Wallet/other mobile wallets is — rolling tokens that are valid for a single transaction. Skimming attacks are also improbable given that you need to authenticate with FaceID or a passcode for every transaction. It’s not like the phone is constantly blasting out ID/payment card details.
- Apple’s implementation doesn’t require unlocking the device, and the ID is validated as a ‘true’ ID rather than just an image through cryptographic exchange over NFC with a compatible ‘ID reader’ device: https://support.apple.com/en-us/118260
- The Moaan Plus (available on AliExpress and from other dropshipping marketplaces) also sports an e-ink display in a similar size, is significantly cheaper, and just as functional as a single-purpose e-reader device. Just takes a bit of tweaking to overcome the initially chinese-only interface and sideload a replacement keyboard (the default one is horrendous) and e-reader apps.
- Not just by algorithm. In the US, many large employers utilize 'The Work Number' by Equifax for employment verification services, and share details about individual employees as granular as individual paycheck disbursements. This information is visible to other employers that buy in to the scheme, and obviously favors the employer in salary negotiations with a candidate.
- >one of the greatest problem for them is that they bypassed customers deployment policies
Caveat emptor. Falcon and other similar security products often push updates at-will, and they're fully transparent about this if you actually read the contract terms and understand the vendor's approach to operations. I have worked with many clients that elect not to use such tools in certain sensitive environments, specifically to mitigate the risk of being impacted by something like CrowdStrike's 7/19 event.
- Along similar lines of thought: there is an Apple Watch case from Japan that replicates the once-popular Infobar 'candybar' phone handset: https://www.multicore.blog/p/infobar-apple-watch-case-review...
