Next article should focus on how even the best helmets are compromised by aftermarket accessories.
Accessories like action cams negate much of what is available today ~ not only amplifying traction and rotational torque, but by translating even blunt impact energy into sharp and focused points.

PSA ~ Fire escapes are not ideal:
~ Propping open fire door often illegal
~ The air is usually gross / not tested for quality
~ Falling on raw concrete or steel can wreck you
~ If something bad happens, your phone may not have signal, and it may be quite a while before you are discovered
Cheers!

Similar take ~
semi-arid animal (Baja, SoCal, Grand Canyon)
can fly 250 miles a day
reach 15,000 feet
captive in a damp Oregon zoo
30+ inches of rain a year
a constant reminder of an off-limits sky
Perhaps I am projecting / currently not in my natural habitat 🙃

OR ~ if a Trump recession is anything like the last one, there will be plenty of brand new, sub-$20k cars ~ once they are a year old and still on the lot.

"All right, but apart from the sanitation, medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, the fresh water system and public health, what has Science ever done for us?"

End-to-end encryption only works between the apps themselves.
Other ways to spy include (just to name a few) ~
• Screen capturing spyware
• Key logging spyware
• Shoulder surfing
• Cameras
• Microphones (capturing text to voice; vice versa)
• Bluetooth (capturing remote keyboards)

Audio books: Not only can you accomplish other tasks simultaneously, but once you acclimate to listening at a slightly faster speed (e.g 1.2x), you get to "read" more books than you ever thought possible.
