Portable device instantly reveals composition of adulterated drugs - The Engineer Risks associated with taking drugs could be reduced with a portable device that can instantly detect drug adulteration.

This takes me back to my high school qualatative analysis and quantitative analysis classes! ☺️

Could be a game changer for harm reduction approaches to illicit drug use, especially where consumers have no idea what their street drugs have been cut with.

Foreign Tourists Are Boycotting the U.S.--And It's Bleeding $90 Billion from the Economy Tariffs, border chaos, and bad headlines are scaring off global travelers--and dragging U.S. GDP down with them

American Reacts to Europe Warning Citizens to NOT Visit USA
YouTube video by Tyler Rumple American Reacts to Europe Warning Citizens to NOT Visit USA

Do Americans really not understand why Europeans, of all people, are being advised, by their own governments, not to travel to the US?

Never mind, I don't want people to think I'm exaggerating again. Like I was exaggerating by leaving the US myself before the last two elections.

Samsung's best Dolby Atmos soundbar is being bricked by a new update – here's what we know so far Samsung fans appear to have been failed by faulty firmware

First Sonos. Now Samsung? WTF is up with these companies? These are major brands! Not some newly founded startup company.

A year later and my $5,000+ Sonos system still doesn't work the way it did before Sonos's disastrous forced update.

Exactly! I don't think Congress yet realizes, but the logical conclusion to this federal purge is the firing of the entire Legislative Branch of government. They are essentially proving themselves the most worthy, and easiest, targets of DOGE.
