'her lawyer reminded her they were fighting for “the principle of free speech.” “I’m hoping that the activists will now realize there are limits to their behavior,” she said.'

So the "principle of free speech" they were fighting for was the principle of limits to free speech?

Meanwhile, my coreopsis have barely emerged from the soil... Sigh.

Also kind of interesting to know there is a quantifiable methodology for rating chewing capabilities, which could potentially be used in other studies.

Anyhow I suspect when we are old and don't understand what is happening to our weakening bodies some of us may have a greater appreciation for this particular study.

I grabbed the cheapest reasonable looking iGPSport bike computer/tracker from aliexpress years ago. Didn't have Garmin money. It did the job. Had excellent battery life. Stored my tracks. Connected with heart rate and cadance monitor. The device registered as a storage device over USB and could just copy the gpx files off the thing. There's also android app that syncs over Bluetooth and with chinese igpsport web site (and can link to strava). Any how it was a bit hacky, but a cool relatively cheap device. Sadly I havent used it in years. Not sure about current igpsport devices. Maybe they will still do simple USB file transfers (if you want to stay offline), maybe not. Something to check out maybe. Not a huge investment.

Been with VoIP.ms a long time. So long that I don't really know what alternatives are out there. It works for me. I've never required any support though, so not sure about your activation issue.

Voyager also has a web app interface that has keyword filtering which works well for me. https://vger.app/

If you're punching with you fist, you are probably punching wrong.

It's an interesting approach. While plastic is (mostly) not directly toxic to us, the argument that it is toxic to the environment seems scientifically sound. The classification allows for more regulation and pressure on an industry which have proven (as usual) extremely ineffective at regulating themselves, to the cost of all of us. And when you think about plastic as a direct product of the petroleum industry things just worse.

Looking at the CEPA web site it currently only lists "micro plastic beads". But I got a government link or the order. It reads "Plastic manufactured items" and goes into great detail on the rational and background.

Coincidentally I saw another story today:Twenty firms produce 55% of world’s plastic waste, report reveals.
