"These sharks appear to have adapted their physiology to be able to optimize their energy use," Prof. Rummer said. "This work challenges the narrative that when things go wrong—such as warming oceans—that reproduction will be the first thing to go.

Ethiopian Airlines is Africa's biggest carrier. It added six extra routes in 2024/25, while revenues are also expanding.

Bouncy music. Smooth and sensual vocals. Cool song.

He even looks like an old-school TV actor.

He vaguely reminds me of Gale Gordon (Theodore J. Mooney on The Lucy Show).

Or Raymond Bailey (Milburn Drysdale on The Beverly Hillbillies.)

That's a likely answer. Thank you!

So less than a dozen fries, a donut hole, and tiny burrito that appears to be the length of an adult finger. Well, it is a micro meal.

But I am appearing to be missing something as this is political memes. So do we have a Peter to explain the joke?

I didn't get a popup, but I have a popup blocker. Here's his six without his detailed reasoning.

  1. KDE neon – The Official KDE Experience
  1. Kubuntu – Ubuntu Stability with Plasma Polish
  1. Fedora KDE Spin – Cutting-Edge Innovation
  1. EndeavourOS KDE – Arch Linux Made Accessible
  1. Garuda Linux – Gaming and Performance Focus
  1. openSUSE Tumbleweed – Stability Meets Rolling Release

While not on the flashier side, I just learned about https://www.tromjaro.com/

"A Trade-Free operating system based on Manjaro Linux​ Designed for your brain, but you can install it on a computer. No more ads and trackers consuming you, no ‘free’ trials, no bullshit."

They even de-crapified Firefox.

Doing a search for the headline and identifying it by the graphic, it appears he might have meant to link here:

.... However, as noted below, it may not be safe without an ad-blocker.

Your question isn't specific, so I can't be more specific than this general answer.

Most labs and corporations have employees. Go to your bank and see what size loan you can afford. Additionally, explore grant opportunities local to you such as those listed by Matthew Lesko (https://leskolocalgrants.com/)

You'll need employees and infrastructure. Since you haven't defined what sort of laboratory or corporation you are, hire an HR representative to explore the employees you'll need.

Next, hire an attorney as a retainer, in case legal issues arise, but you do need to incorporate to be a corporation, so that should be the top of your to do list.

Most labs and corps make money. Hire an accountant.

Now you need to hire a CEO. It can't be you, as you are still learning how to be a corporation or laboratory. Now you need money to pay for all these people. Ask the CEO what are your values, your mission statement, your long term vision, 5-10 Key Performance Indicators, and your 3 to 5 year plan to pay these people.

Hire a Chief Information Officer. Your HR person and CIO should be working with you to identify your Standard Operating Procedures for the plan the CEO has. Your CIO needs to analyze your facilities for a data center and workstations, and wireless access points. You need to keep data because as Adam Savage once said on Mythbusters, "Remember kids, the only difference between screwing around and science is writing it down" And you should store the data on your server.

Now remind yourself you have only so many days before all these people want to be paid. Make sure you are either making enough cash or have cash on hand to pay them. If you do, bask in the success, learning from your successful team. If you can't afford to pay them, it's time to downsize, so tell the CEO to fire everyone, even you, and leave that sucker hanging on the line, because he's the CEO of your company that's insolvent.

Then drop on the deck and flop like a fish.
