The phone isn’t going to end up in China from people passing them hand to hand; they’re going to be collected somewhere and bundled for shipping in an EM-protected covering of some sort. The record of the route they took right up until they go silent will be available for every phone. Looking at an aggregate map of this data should give the police a pretty good idea of what’s going on.

I suspect the difficulty is that the police need to get a data release from each individual involved and then get Google/Apple and/or the owners to voluntarily share the historical location data with the police… which most people aren’t willing to do out of an abundance of caution.

Just replace “Elections BC” with “BC Taxpayers” please… we’re the ones who foot that bill, despite never having told them to form a party in the first place (in fact, kind of the opposite)….

It’d be more coherent then.

Folks say all sorts of things.

Personally, I’m fine with house spiders as long as they do their job AND don’t start laying eggs indoors.

Don’t nest where you hunt, house spiders. It never ends well.

Just remember that there’s a difference between good,truthful information from untrusted sources and mostly truthful information designed to deceive or misdirect.

I see enough “news” presented inaccurately from “trusted” sources to take all reporting with a grain of salt, but also find value in reading reports from varying viewpoints to try and identify the actual established facts.

In reality, you can use any blogging solution; they can be hosted on I2P or TOR or WriteFreely or even Lemmy. A Lemmy community is essentially a P2P microblogging solution if used that way.

Then, just sign all your posts on the platform you choose.

What happens next? A short burst of mammoth steaks followed by re-extinction.

The part where the headline is supposedly about the first time humans have experienced it?

The content is fine… the formatting and headline are atrocious.

Fuel? I’d go with “implement step one of” myself.

The headline here has no mention of wet bulb?

“For the first time, humans were subjected to a deadly combination of heat and humidity.”

The article is about the first formalized test measuring the relationship between heat and humidity on thermal management in the body, mostly using a single fit thirty year old male. It’s not about how the first human subjected to wet bulb conditions handled them, but about an improved understanding of the relationship of heat and humidity on thermal management of humans.
