Voice/video calls work just fine in that case. The minor gains of being in physical proximity aren't really necessary for good communication.

Their rationale, from the article:

The bureau has floated the idea of charging animal rights activists under a statute prohibiting biological weapons, a subtype of WMD, the records show. This may include toxins, viruses, and microorganisms used to deliberately spur death and disease.

Marceau described this focus on agroterrorism as an effort to pin blame on activists for the rampant disease outbreaks on factory farms.

I find this hard to believe it would fly in court. Unless it's true of course, which seems unlikely. Animal rights activists releasing a disease to kill livestock (and maybe start a pandemic) seems illogical, but not everything animal rights extremists (if that's what these people are) do is always logical.

It could just be the FBI gathering intelligence in an area they expect violent extremists to arise. Same way you might track militia activity. Doesn't make a ton of sense to me but the FBI has had a big fear of animal rights activists doing extremists shit for a long time.

Nothing could keep me there.

Very likely to be "chicken croquets." They were all the rage in the late 80s and early 90s. The were also likely be paired with mashed potatoes and corn.

I remember them being great as a kid but I really have no interest in trying them again.

It does not provide enough information to make a rational decision with. Especially when that's the entire focus of the article.

Even the level of detail in your post would have been an improvement, even though it's still significantly lacking.

If you want to take advice from vague blog spam that's your business. I'd prefer not to.

That doesn't explain anything.

Eight states — Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Rhode Island, Vermont and Wisconsin — have reported human cases of the virus this year, for a total of 16 cases, according to the latest CDC data. Other states have seen cases in animals only. In Maine this year, triple E was found in two emus and one wild bird.

What I hate about this, is that every time it comes up, nobody ever really goes into details of why. What is no longer safe? What breaks down? Or is it updated standards? Just fucking get into the reasons so people can make rational choices, instead of just saying "trust me bro."

Went from "is coming" to "La Niña isn’t here yet, but has a 60% chance of emerging through November, according to the Climate Prediction Center" in only a few paragraphs.

Special Purpose is almost as rad as Mushroom grips.

the idea of having comments be auto moderated to be detected as contributing to a conversation of the article vs attacking someone seemed interesting.

Echo chamber enforcement.

That's weird. I haven't had much of an issue. Though my experience is with the OG Vive so that display is kind of rough to begin with.
