Men could face terrorism-related and weapons charges after officials say explosive ‘had been lit but failed to function’

Authorities in Utah say two men have been arrested on suspicion of placing an incendiary device under a news media vehicle in Salt Lake City. The bomb didn’t go off.

Police and fire department bomb squads responded on Friday when a suspicious device was found under the vehicle parked near an occupied building.

Investigators determined the bomb “had been lit but failed to function as designed”, according to court records cited by CBS affiliate KUTV.

Surgeon general Joseph Ladapo retreats on his plans after the US president says: ‘You have vaccines that work’

It took barely two days, and some huffs of disapproval from the White House, before Joseph Ladapo’s bold plan to eliminate all vaccine mandates in Florida began to deflate.

The action, the fervently religious state surgeon general had asserted at a fire and brimstone press conference in Tampa, came straight from the heavens: “Who am I, as a man standing here now, to tell you what you should put in your body?” he opined, framing the freedom to reject vaccines as a “reflection of God’s light against the darkness of tyranny and oppression”.

Mandates were akin to “slavery”, he said, in comments presumably intended to align with the ongoing anti-vaccination campaign of misinformation and myth of the health secretary, Robert F Kennedy.

Good because:

  1. Can click images with both cameras
  2. Daily notifications
  3. Privacy focussed
  4. If you want any new feature in the app, just email the devs and they will build and ship it in 15days or less
  5. FREE, No Ads even
  6. Can write long Journal entries

Boring bcoz:

  1. Cant chat with friends
  2. cant create gifs (videos)
  3. cant see friends pics. Which is a deal breaker for me

So i have currently started using DD-DigitalDiary and clicking pics with DD-DigitalDiary everytime i get a BeReal notification. Also i have kept BeReal in order to chat with girls & stuff. And see their pics since thats the only way you can see and catch up with their daily life's I mostly post black bereals. Downloaded all my 2yr old BeReal pics and put it in my HardDisk (i suggest you guys to do the same btw)

Have any of you guys switched from BeReal to DD-DigitalDiary or any other such application? Is there any other better alternatives (than DD-DigitalDiary)? NOTE: I use Android but for the community link ios, mac, linux alternatives as well if a better is available

I know many of u wont even know about DD-DigitalDiary coz it only has like 500 downloads or something, so here goes the link. DD-DigitalDiary

Rivian CEO RJ Scaringe said everyone’s fixation on the cost of China’s EVs is wrong because it’s “that the technology is much better” and “if I were an existing manufacturer, I’d get less hung up on the cost and more focused on ‘the cars are actually better.'”

I am unable to do the magic eye things, my eyes just don't focus on that way. Good thing I never am required to

I say "dead" because to be dead is to "not make an appearance". They describe celebrities as "making an appearance". Appearances has become our reality now. If you do not speak up, you are not heard and may as well be dead (invisible).

Think about all those people in prisons. they are invisible. They are to be tortured and no one knows about it. Think of all those people wrongfully detained or beat up by cops and there's no recording of it. No record = didn't happen; no pics = didn't happen. Why is it that we know of Einstein and not some other great genius? it's because Einstein has records while others don't.

If you don't not understand how to "look good on camera" you're basically screwed. We are all models, so might as well smile for the camera Understand how to look good on camera

“Modeling is truly an art form, and you have to respect it and do the research and the work,” says Liris Crosse, a leading plus-size model and former Project Runway winner, who also runs a model workshop and masterclass. It’s not enough to be physically attractive, she explains—you have to understand how to look good on camera. “I think it's important, especially for new models, to get information from people who have actually done it. I see people who offer classes and I’m like,** ‘I’ve never seen you** in an ad.’ I have the actual credentials to back it up. And I’m still working, so I'm continuously backing it up. I'm giving you the shortcut of what took me over a decade to get myself.” https://www.backstage.com/magazine/article/become-model-4598/
