Pretty sure it’s to enable extensions written in JS. These apps build their success on a rich ecosystem of plugins. And, like it or not, JS plays a big part in that.
Oh yeah for sure, the situation in the US is something I dread. The fact that the cost of living in the US is near the equal to ours is mind-blowing to me when I read about their average wage level.
I think it's interesting to see the US cost of living catching up to that of my country (Norway). I've always looked at US prices and envied them, but now I'm just like "Whey! That's a normal price!". Based on what I'm reading I'm guessing wages aren't keeping up in the same manner though...
A quick Google search seems to indicate that Pfizer's TicoVac is indeed available in the US. I would wager this is the same one that they're using in Austria. At least it's this one they offer in my home country (also European).
TBE vaccine (TicoVac) is the only one I'm aware of, but I guess the necessity would depend on whether or not ticks in your area are known to carry TBE.

I dunno man. A teenager baiting a billionaire into spending a significant amount of his fortune to shut him up sounds like the most successful troll in history to me.
No disagreements about about him being a prick, but wishing cancer and even death on another person seems pretty wild to me.
No joke, I’ve been using Bing’s GPT-4 search and it’s helped me much more frequently than Google lately. AI might actually be where Bing out-competes Google.
I find it funny that Americans (esp. Republicans) who love to «win» at all things, would be fine to allow Russia to win against the west in Ukraine. I think if they decide to stay on their isolationist path, Lavrov’s propaganda from earlier in the week will come true, and the US will seize to be a superpower. «Greatest country in the world»? Starting to look pretty weak to me.
This is literally perpetuated by schoolyard bullying. Anyone over the age of 20 will very likely be entirely out of touch with how big a deal green/blue is for pre-teens and teens these days. It’s pretty much a cornerstone in teen social structures.
Wut? I’m in Europe and I’ve never had WhatsApp in my life.
Ah yes, the Tesla development approach.
Yeah can I get adblock on iPhone with Firefox?
Absolutely right - Signing up needs to be as easy as signing up for reddit. And same with searching for and subscribing to communities, even on other instances. Your average user wants the technical details of the Fediverse abstracted away from them. Anything beyond that and adoption won't be what we (most of us?) would like it to be.
Anyone able to tell me which open source AI models the memo might be referring to? I’m not up to date on the landscape here and would love to know more.
