Not intentionally, but some cars have been vulnerable to remote control/hijacking since at least 2015.

I've noticed (in people I follow) that many Instagram posts also get posted to threads at the same time (automatically?). I didn't see it in the article, but I wonder how many of these users are posting on Instagram primarily with threads as side effect.
I can't speak for the department near you, but in many departments, particularly towns/more rural areas, the fire department/fire station responds to both medical and fire calls. It very well may be the majority of responses were medical in nature. For example, 70% of NYFD call volume is medical [1].

(Assuming this is NY) Worth noting that NY license plates had a defect that caused the paint to delaminate [1]. I am not surprised that people intentionally do it, but this delamination used to be extremely common.

Here are two statements from some of the investors: https://www.longjourney.vc/news/cyans-substrate-tattoo

From a VC perspective, it does make sense to invest in EUV equipment tech. Being successful immediately makes the company one of the most important in the world (and opens up a $15B+ market).
The 3D-printed (and hot glued?) part in Figure 3 further support this theory (not that 3D prints can't be used in production).
Does your dental insurance not reimburse you? My dentist is also direct pay but submits for reimbursement on my behalf. They get paid up front and I get a check a few weeks later.
I cant speak to 2G networks, but 5G (and 4G) are amazingly simple to get started using OpenAirInterface. With a USRP B210 I had a 5G network running from a bare Ubuntu install in under 30 minutes. I used a smartphone and some cheap (blank, user-writable) SIM cards to connect and test it.
Here's an example for a Tacoma https://www.tacoma4g.com/forum/threads/disabling-dcm-telemat...
Many cars have something similar (remove SIM card, cut antenna) that allows them to keep working without connectivity
These percentages seem a bit high compared to what I have seen. I usually see/hear about a 1-3mpg and 10-30% HP. I understand the point you are trying to make but "doubling of fuel economy and about an 80% jump in horsepower" is far from accurate, especially considering the downsides of a delete on every outside of the vehicle
"After holding steady for years, sleep-related infant deaths rose by nearly 12% between 2020 and 2022, according to the most recent data. Researchers think the rise may be related to parents not getting the information on safe sleep they needed during the pandemic"
I'm not sure how many new mothers are taking the time to go through every unsolicited text they get. The majority of people consider printed media more trustworthy then online media [1] (I probably wouldn't click on a text message link with a headline about my newborn vs. a pamphlet provided by the hospital). There seems to be strong evidence that the "entire apparatus" did in fact work and was not superseded by text messages. I agree that there is a lot of useless busy work, but I don't think these cancellations are the way to address it
I have a NAD 3030 from ~ the 70's. Very glad to see their new unit keeps (almost exactly) the same look. Great equipment
Edit: Immediately after posting this I scrolled down and saw "The C 3050’s industrial design was inspired by the NAD 3030 Stereophonic Amplifier, a 1970s classic" which explains the look!
Is there a specific section you are referring to? It seems to back up their point throughout the document - i.e. on page 262 "Over a half of Muslim student respondents, a quarter of Jewish student respondents and a bit under a half of MENA student respondents do not feel physically safe on campus"
This is what I was wondering - around me, many of these cars were stolen by kids under 16 with no drivers license. I know of a few cases where they crashed on the highway killing 3+.
Not quite "medical expert" but the author does establish (or attempt to) as a leading figure on this topic in paragraph 11:
"This is one of the few scientific subjects on which I've established a modicum of expertise"
Long way from medical expert but it does imply a higher-level understanding of the science here. Whether writing a few articles makes someone an expert is up to the individual to decide.
I wonder how well a system like this would work in other conflicts. Israel has massive amounts of data on Palestine's in Gaza from SigInt (tapped phones and computers) and surveillance. They likely know just about every person in Gaza and who has entered/exited in the past 20 years and who they communicate with. Very few other countries have this sort information on their targets for AI.
I had a friend who was incarcerated for a time; he sent me a message from the "jail-approved" platform smartjailmail. In order to respond I had to purchase credits - each message I sent was 50 credits and I could include "return postage" (sending them 50 credits to reply) with a max of 2000 characters per message. Pictures cost 100 credits to send. The minimum number of credits that I could purchase was 500, and all transactions included a payment fee of a few bucks. Glad to see this changing as it struck me as a very predatory business model.
For comparison, the Tesla Model 3 was travelling at an average of 18.94 mph
Interestingly I've seen a strong pro-Israel bias, particularly on the larger subreddits (like the default ones). Some of the smaller ones do seem to have a pro-Palestine (or pro-civilian) outlook but nothing that I would describe as "strongly anti-Israel"
