I heard about that. I wonder what the long term effects of that will be on those 70+ year olds. Just look at all the risks listed here:

Interestingly, doctors tend to avoid blood transfusions even in the case of heavy bleeding. Instead, they immediately use intravenous fluids to rapidly "fill the pipes" and restore blood pressure and organ perfusion.

A novel idea, but Mr Stoker did have some folk legends to borrow from. Personally, I have no stake in that matter, no fascination with holy water or crucifixes and certainly don't believe in silver bullets. Sunshine, however, is a powerful disinfectant and garlic makes bread tasty! (So, are there no Italian vampires?). It's interesting the actual name of Jesus is never used by the characters in Bram Stoker's Dracula -- his name is the singular artifact of power in the new testament.

Or take a closer look at blood transfusions.
A biblical verse states the life of an organism is in its blood. It is blood that carries the nutrients, signalling molecules and even free mitochondria that probably signal the transplanted organ to turn younger. The bioelectric environment also matters, but probably not to the same extent as blood does to the transplanted heart.

No, i'm just that disorganised to have run out of gas thrice in my life, and have my phone die on me with some regularity. I dread having to remember to plug in yet one more 'device' with regularity. :)

My Prius works really well for me. I'm glad your EV works for you, especially if you live in a home with solar panels. I live in an apartment

After not using Brave for months I just tried it on CNN.com and this story, and it's quicker than Chrome. It blocked 10 ads and trackers on this page.

The only thing that stops me using it regularly are my stored passwords in Chrome. I have not figured out how to transfer them and Chrome is generally OK

Yup :(...

I expect it is a session aware load balancer. There are plenty of those. Maybe it has HA cluster features (voting to decide master).. But from the little I read, I didn't see it.

There was mention of an Electron app. From my experience with Microsoft Teams, that's not a good thing.
