Exactly... And then banned them for something they did on a different community. It's crazy to have such little power and still abuse it.

The digital euro doesn't stop you from keeping doing it. It only replaces cash. Instead of withdrawing cash from the ATM to keep it in your wallet, you withdraw digital cash and keep it in your phone.

There's nothing wrong with sunscreen in general, but they are probably referring to what happened recently in Australia:

Independent analysis by a trusted consumer advocacy group has found that several of Australia's most popular, and expensive, sunscreens are not providing the protection they claim to, kicking off a national scandal.

I meant they were right about being too blue. I don't think that it damages the eyes because it's blue, but I'm pretty sure a really bright light can damage your eyes.

I don't know about regulations, but you are right about the blue light. Most white LEDs have low CRI, and that's why things look weird with them.
The reason they use low CRI LEDs is probably because they are cheaper and produce more lumens per watt.

Cool! Didn't know that one, thanks!

I really like the Dymaxion projection.

Yeah, the choosing when to see them is the most difficult part. I don't see that happening in the near future.

So basically all ads... I agree

 

Bigger vehicles can be safer in crashes, but far more dangerous for pedestrians.

And the average size of cars and trucks in the U.S. continues to grow. Some current models – like that of the Toyota Rav4 – are a third larger than they were only 15 years ago.

That’s led to a 77% increase in pedestrian fatalities since 2010.
