Are they sure it's not the other way around? The flu shot has always been one of those maybe things for me. The efficacy of them isn't that great. I only got it this year because I was already in there for the new Covid booster.

Not being alone is a huge thing. A friend's MIL lived alone for years and she had lots of interactions with her family, etc but was obviously losing her memory. She finally went to a retirement community and it was pretty amazing how much her memory improved.

Are you going to censor Rob Bonta since that fucker flat lies, and misinforms when it comes to firearms topics? And it's not opinion, it's flat out misinformation. It's hard to tell whether he's just a liar or stupid sometimes because it's so blatant. He's an absolute political animal with all the bullshit that comes with it.

And who exactly decides what's disinformation? There's plenty of examples of censorship by social media that wasn't disinformation but is just not agreed with by the censor.

And it's coming from all angles too. How about we work harder at teaching people to be discerning about sources. Bonta is nothing but a partisan hack himself and doesn't mind disinformation when it's favoring his side.

Lidar and photogrammetry is pretty remarkable at showing manmade structures despite vegetation. When you see the non-colored points the lines become very apparent. On my ranch I had phone line run and they took a dozer and created a path the trench along. After 10 years of the brush and grass growing up it was pretty much indistinguishable to the naked eye. A drone flight and review of the point cloud made the dozer path stand out like a sore thumb although it was still impossible to see in the pictures.

I've got a Pixel 5a and it appeared to be Google's service that came rather than a USGS one. I was about 25 miles away and the jolt was very short So short that I wondered if we had just had a quake and looked at some hanging blind cords to see if they were swinging. They weren't but the confirmation of a quake came a couple of minutes later.
