  • Health Canada approves updated Pfizer, Moderna COVID-19 vaccines for fall

    Jump

  • Interesting that Health Canada is no longer advising covid shots for healthy adults?

    It recommends two doses of the vaccine per year for people 80 years of age and older, long-term care residents and people six months of age and older who are moderately to severely immunocompromised.

    The advisory committee recommends one shot per year for people between 65 and 79 years of age, health-care workers and people at risk of getting severely ill from COVID-19.

  • The new poll, conducted by Echelon Insights, has Newsom in second place among potential Democratic candidates with 13 percent support, behind former Vice President Kamala Harris with 26 percent.

    Good god. Enough is enough.

  • AI experts return from China stunned: The U.S. grid is so weak, the race may already be over

    Jump

  • That's right - that's what the article is pointing out, and what my comment was pointing out: that despite usage of 50% capacity on current coal plants they are still building more. They are building capacity for the long term - for AI data centers which are giant power consumers. Power generation and transmission capacity can't be built over night. That's where top-down planning comes in.

  • US and Philippines discuss more missile system deployments as tensions rise in South China Sea

    Jump

  • US has snuck these mobile missile systems into the Philippines. At first they said missiles were there temporarily as part of joint military exercises, but delayed removing them. It's now been a few years since and these missiles have become a fixture over there. Chinese are going to come out with a warning about this "provocation" by the US and Philippines soon.

  • Trump says he plans to put a 100% tariff on computer chips, likely pushing up cost of electronics

    Jump

  • Yes Biden's chips act did create a ton of new investments in chip building in the US. Only for Trump and Maga to kill it upon taking power. Now he's going to claim the credit for all the investments made from the time of Biden's chips act.

  • Trump says he plans to put a 100% tariff on computer chips, likely pushing up cost of electronics

    Jump

  • He will exempt companies who makes chips in the US - as long as they make some of them in the US, their imports are exempt from the tariff. A quick glance says major chip makers (Intel, AMD, Nvidia) have some production facilities in the US.

    Cambodia’s reason for abandoning soldiers' bodies on the border

  • The body count isn't from the paper. If you read, it is a direct quote attributed to a general of the Thai military.

    I am not sure there are any center-left newspapers left in Thailand. The nation isn't a rag as you claim to be. It is a reputable news outlet.

    The Nation is an English-language daily online newspaper founded in 1971, published in Bangkok, Thailand. It is one of two English-language dailies in Bangkok, the other being the Bangkok Post. On 28 June 2019, it published its final broadsheet edition, leaving only its online edition.[5]

    Though The Nation has a right-of-centre opinion page, which welcomed the 2014 coup and military rule, its daily news coverage is more center-left, criticizing, for example, Thailand's lèse-majesté law.[8] According to acclaimed, left-of-centre journalist, Pravit Rojanaphruk, who worked at Nation for 23 years: "The Nation, at least during its heyday ..., was a bastion of committed journalism and tolerance." But over the past decade, it "morphed from a progressive newspapers into a coup-apologist cheerleader for military intervention,..." Pravit was fired from The Nation in 2015 after release from a three-day junta detention without charge for "attitude adjustment", his second such detention.

    Holy crap. I didn't realize the battles were that huge. Even if only 10% of Thai estimates are true, that's still a lot of deaths for a few days of what I thought were border skirmishes.
