There's physically no way to permanently "brick" an iPhone.

There definitely are (If you count jailbroken iPhones). I've managed to brick one by removing all thermal throttling limits and subsequently damaging the motherboard with the world's shittiest watercooling setup.

Can't use DFU to restore if you've got damaged hardware

Please find me a clip where Trump supported Project 2025, I'll wait.

Trump said parts of Project 2025 are "very good" in Dec 2024. Can't link a clip right now as I'm at lunch at work, but it should be easy to find

Tens of thousands of federal workers fired and all the "savings" add up to less than Musk's proposed stock pay package. Some people are too rich

There honestly might be a greater chance of something happening to the .cc domain (like what's happening now with .io)

Harvard has a much larger population than the Cocos islands, I don't know why this project decided to rely on a country code tld

Woah woah woah, unlimited saves for only $2/mo?

Clearly, we need an ad-supported $0.99/mo tier with a limit of 50,000 saves per quarter (additional saves $0.01 each).

$2.99/mo is what gives you unlimited* saves to disk.

This can be solved with CSS. Extend the background blur all the way through the element and then use CSS masks to cut out the actual shape you want.

Guess what year the NHTSA started using female crash dummies?

2003, thirty years after they started using male crash dummies. And the NHTSA's female dummies were essentially male dummies shrunk to 4'11" and lightened to 97/108lbs.

What year do you think they mandated a crash dummy that was actually based on the female body?

Just guess. I think you might be surprised that they haven't done this yet. It's in the works (see THOR-5F), but it's crazy it's taken so long.

Now guess when they first put the 2003 female crash dummy in the drivers seat for the frontal collision crash test. They still haven't!

Speaking as someone who has a severe peanut allergy, it does help.

Like Dr. Gupta said in the article, it is "so disappointing" that companies add sesame to products that didn't originally have them (they've done this with peanut flour too), but it's absolutely worth the tradeoff of getting sesame added as a "must label" allergen.

There's so much uncertainty surrounding food allergy safety (particularly regarding children), and it can be heavy knowing that each meal could be your last.

Barring impossible-to-avoid circumstances like the 2015 cumin fiasco (where suppliers cut spices with ground-up peanut shells), it's a true weight off your back knowing that a product does not contain an allergen
