Three women contract HIV from dirty “vampire facials” at unlicensed spa (arstechnica.com)

Trendy, unproven “vampire facials” performed at an unlicensed spa in New Mexico left at least three women with HIV infections. This marks the first time that cosmetic procedures have been associated with an HIV outbreak, according to a detailed report of the outbreak investigation published today....

JanoRis,

I mean the shortened down article does not give that info. The ars technica article does give a detailed description though. The CDC Report only give little info on what vampire facials are. Since the shortened article description from OP does already link to the CDC report, the only point to still read the ars technica article is to find out how exactly vampire facials are done

JanoRis,

Yeah, the "Bethesda. Bethesday never changes" seems to me to just be a reference to the iconic and memed start of FO4. "War. War never changes". Just a little inside joke for the FO4 community

JanoRis,

makes me wonder what you can do in the same situation in a cybertruck. I guess it would not be easy to break bulletproof glass

JanoRis,

isn't the point of breaking the door window under water to let water in, so you can open the car door once the pressure difference is equilibrated?

JanoRis,

it's still in the top 10 daily players games on steam and still higher than CoD and BG3.

Ofc the player numbers is going down, but i think it is an easy casual game to come back to when playing with friends.

I bet the next steam next fest will have tons of copycat demos for this type of game too.

JanoRis,

I enjoyed the fact that Netherlands, belgium and Luxemburg created the german flag on the map

JanoRis,

Should have written:" is this community dad "

After 23 years, developer reveals he snuck a cheat code past Sony that turns a cult-classic horror game into a godsend for retro enthusiasts (www.gamesradar.com)

Article about a recent revelation by the Youtube Channel Modern Vintage Gaming: The game “Alien Resurrection” by Argonaut contains a code which allows to run burned CD copies of Playstation 1 games.

JanoRis,

But isn't the whole point to play a burned copy of the game?
This seems like scalping concert tickets to a concert that allows you to copy tickets in the printer.

JanoRis,

Red wine and coke is sth i have seen croatians and Portuguese drink

JanoRis,

Hatte glaub nur einmal ähnlich viel Schnee gehabt, denk so um 2004 rum?

In der Einfahrt zu unserer Wohngegend ist auch kein Winterdienst und da bin ich auch gestern Abend erstmal mit dem Auto liegen geblieben. Heute fast 3 Stunden geräumt, in der Zeit durfte die ganze Nachbarschaft auch 3 weitere Autos die festsaßen befreien. Heut Nacht gefriert erstmal alles bei -15°C.

Es ist schon mehr als Schneefall, nicht umsonst ist beim DWD für die Region rote Warnstufe angegeben. Ich vermute mal die Feuerwehren und Räumdienste würden das Ganze auch als eher in Richtung Schneechaos deklarieren.
Die Öffis sind ja zum Teil auch lahmgelegt und der Flughafen ist bis Sonntag ebenfalls gesperrt.
Am Flughafen hat sich ein geparkter Privatjet auch aufgestellt durch den Schnee am Heck

Wenn man in einer geräumten Gegend wohnt kann man schon zurücklehnen und sich im warmen gemütlich machen.

JanoRis,

That data is still from 2009 though, but sadly there doesn't seem to be a newer statistic. Since that time many changes were made to push for the removal of old lead piping in the EU.

Anyway the threshold for lead in drinking water in the EU is 10ug/L since 2013.
Since 2020 a regulation has been in effect with the goal to have less than 5 ug/L drinking water at the consumer until 2036 everywhere in the EU.
https://publications.jrc.ec.europa.eu/repository/handle/JRC125733

The US has a threshold of 15 ug/L.

https://www.atsdr.cdc.gov/csem/leadtoxicity/safety_standards.html#:~:text=EPA's%20action%20level%20for%20lead,systems%20is%2015%20%C2%B5g%2FL.

JanoRis,

https://kbin.social/m/news@lemmy.world/t/668177/-/comment/3862164

In short:
since 2013 EU has 10 ug/L limit. since 2020 a goal was set for 5 ug/L to be achieved until 2036.

EPA current limit is 15 ug/L. Yes, they have set a 0 goal, but with apparently no timeline, so until than there will still be many areas with 15 ug/L. Bidens proposal would probably set this 0 goal into a 10 year timeframe, making it much better than the EU goal.

JanoRis,

England and Wales are no more EU though, they don't have to follow EU regulations.

But yeah many EU countries still have some areas with lead pipes, even Germany, France and so on. It seems to be hard to track

JanoRis,

Soll Merz hier nicht einfach nur die alten Menschen darstellen, welche ja sehr häufig zum Arzt müssen? Deshalb brauchen diese mehr Arzttermine, sind aber auch eine der Ursachen für die geringen freien Arzttermine. Stellen ja auch die Grundwählerschaft dar. Die Immigranten sind hier nur der typische Sündenbock, über sich selber aufregen kann man ja nicht.

Deswegen hat ja Merz viele Kekse, der Arbeiter 1 Keks und der Einwanderer keinen Keks

JanoRis,

So it seems that during the digestion in stomach acid the enzyme myrosinase is released from these plants (https://www.diindolylmethane-dim.com/formation.htm) responsible for the intermediate product DIM.

This means we could have DIM present in acidic meals of these vegetables, like for example Kimchi

JanoRis,

Not really parkour like dying light is, but in outlast trials you will kinda try to outrun lots of different killers and monsters. Can probably be compared a bit with dead by daylight

Ubisoft will delete your account if you haven't logged for some time (Even if you owned games in it) (gamerant.com)

Ubisoft claims they do not want their players to lose access to their accounts but it’s pretty clear they do want to (so they can repurchase probably), otherwise they would not implement such feature 🤷...

JanoRis,

When was Guild Wars ever an Ubisoft game. Don't remember NCSoft / Arenanet ever being affiliated with Ubisoft

JanoRis,

I guess this will also end the xbox live to gamepass ultimate conversion which is currently still the cheapest way (without relying on key reseller sites) to get gamepass ultimate.

Where are all the good stealth games?

I’ve been trying to find one throughout the Steam summer sale and come up dry, and now I’m out of money until the 15th. Hopefully y’all can help me find a good one before the winter sale. Here’s a rundown of what I’ve tried so far and what I’ve liked and dislike about them:...

JanoRis,

A lot of the games you tried are on gamepass, including hitman world of assassination.
There are some others aswell, like Aragami 2, sniper elite and plague tale.Might be worth just trying gamepass for 10€ for a month or to see if you can buy a trial key for cheap somewhere, to test the games.

Another game I can recommend but it is a bit different genre is Outlast:Trials. It is a stealth game but if you fail you have to escape and hide. Though this game is pretty explicit with nudity, violence and gore

JanoRis,

Have been asking this myself lately.
People always seem to get defensive about this topic, but if an instance gets challenged on a GDPR investigation it could have a huge fine associated to it.
It is good to have this sorted out, so instance owners don't enter a life changing financial risk.

Currently we probably are too small and fly under the radar, but this could become a big problem as the fediverse scales.

Issues I wonder about:

  1. How safe is the Fediverse? Is there a way for a federated instance to misuse the user data? Or can such activity be detected and cause a defedaration.
  2. How easily can all user data be deleted if a request comes in to remove all personal data? Wouldn't that request have to be extended to all instances your instance is currently federated with?
  3. Instances probably wouldn't be able to handle a bad actor (for example Meta, or spez) that decides to start a mass request attack.
  4. Corporations have lawyers that deal with this stuff, I don't feel like most instance owners have the same kind of protection here.

What are some good games for having a "backseat driver?"

Hey everyone! Despite my efforts, my fiancé really doesn’t get into video games much. Mechanical skill limitations frustrate her, and sometimes her attention span for games isn’t high when she could read a book or watch a show, I want to try a new tactic to see if it works: games where she can be a “backseat driver.”...

JanoRis,

This is the best suggestion so far. Outer Wilds is really nice game and fits well for the purpose asked by OP.
Other games i can see working well:
-Portal 2
-Subnautica
-DavetheDiver
-Stardew Valley
-Valheim (more fun coop though)
-Satisfactory

If you want to try to play together again Stardew Valley and Portal 2 are also solid coop choices.
It takes two is also fun with a partner

JanoRis,

I just have one account for kbin.social and one for lemmy.world. Kbin lets me participate on beehaw aswell if I wish to do so.

It gives me two different approaches of the fediverse to test, which i like.
