Sounds like a great idea ... People still need to feed themselves, do groceries during less opening hours, shops will be more packed, therefore more contagion risks ...

Yes, check out that stats.
New York City has more than 300,000 more single women between the age of 45-64 than men. It's a graveyard for over the hill ladies unfortunately.

This show has ruined so many young women's lives, it's an awful example for women if how to live their lives. They hit late 30's realise suddenly that the chances of finding a trustworthy loving partner is gone along with any hopes of kids and a family. Then loneliness in old age awaits. Sad.
Really ? There have been studies or something ?

Good to see companies and hopefully governments attempting to keep up with the possible dangers that quantum computing poses. All current cryptography is at threat of being broken by quantum computing and we need to start thinking next level cyber security now.
"Quantum cryptography" is not "post-quantum cryptography".
"Quantum cryptography" allows you to detect if the transmission has been listened by a 3rd party. "Post-quantum cryptography" is crypto protecting against quantum computers.
So basically quantum cryptography is useless as cryptography itself protect the transmission.

Yep, one random guy.

Basically his only proof is : "Biden got too many vote at the last moment giving him the victory, it's not possible". Seems a bit light at this point.

Billionaire-entrepreneur Elon Musk was feeling poorly recently, so he took four COVID-19 tests in a 24-hour period.
(This type of test is called the ‘rapid antigen test’, because results are obtained in a short period of time.) According to Musk, two of the tests came back positive and two came back negative. So whether Mr. Musk has COVID or not, fully 50% OF HIS TEST RESULTS WERE TOTAL FAILURES. Musk used the term “bogus ” to describe the tests. (We should probably remind ourselves, that a guy like Musk would almost certainly follow the Test Directions to the letter.)

And he has been mocked for that and got an explanation : https://twitter.com/emmabell42/status/1327586649765769218

Charlie Hebdo really seems to like starting trouble. It's one thing to ridicule Erdogan but why always bringing in something about the Prophet Muhammad? You get what you ask for so don't be surprised by the reaction or what may follow. You are asking for it.
They often draw the Pope, Jesus, or who/whatever religious symbols, only the Islamic ones make noise for some reason.
And maybe because they had a little history since January 2015...
