A "fire" catches anyone but what if the "fire" catches itself - a terrible "AFIRE".In Tagalog - "Sunog na nasusunog".

A "fire" that is "AFIRE" is a "Cook" being a "Cooked"...but you are not a "chef" actually unless a "chef" cook itself.In Tagalog - "niluto mo sarili mo " o "ginisa sa sariling mantika".

What causes the sudden terrible big "crush landing" is what the "fire" set "afire" and what the "cook" being a "cooked"

 This post is taken from IZULAT blog repost here

WhatsApp will switch off or be in inactive state users that will not comply or agree to its new terms or privacy terms until May 15,2021 and will be eventually removed. Their account on WhatsApp will not work then like sending and receiving messages until they agree to the new terms.

“WhatsApp has recently detailed what exactly will happen to users who disagree to its privacy changes. Earlier last week, the Facebook-owned messaging app stated it will allow users time to review WhatsApp’s planned privacy updates all “at their own pace”. WhatsApp has said that users will see a banner displayed at the top of the app, which is expected to explain the new privacy terms and changes. WhatsApp claims that it will “slowly ask” users to agree to the new terms “in order to have full functionality of WhatsApp”. However, for those who choose not to comply with the terms by May 15, “these users will be able to receive calls and notifications, but will not be able to read or send messages from the app.” The “short time” span supposedly gives users a few weeks to decide but the account may be deleted since one of WhatsApp’s policies for inactive users gives the company the right to delete the account after 120 days of inactivity.”(Showcel News)

“The new privacy policy outlines that messages between individual accounts on WhatsApp will still be end-to-end encrypted but, messages sent to businesses may be stored on Facebook servers and utilized for advertising data. Additionally, the new terms would allow Facebook and WhatsApp to share transaction and payment data in order to broaden e-commerce offerings and better target ads.”(Showcel News)

The main point : WhatsApp will switch off messaging for users who do not comply or agree to their new privacy terms and will be put into inactive list until May 15,2021 and will be removed because of inactivity.

Fossil Fuel Air Pollution Kills People Yearly

 This post is taken from IZULAT blog repost here.

According to new study, the contribution of fossil fuel on air pollution is big as it causes big percentage of death yearly.

“The new study shows that in 2018, estimated 8.7 million deaths were linked to fossil fuel emissions alone.”(CNN)

“More than 8 million people around the world die each year as a result of breathing polluted air that contains particles from fossil fuels, a new study has found. Burning fossil fuels such as coal and oil produces greenhouse gases that trap solar radiation in the atmosphere and cause climate change. But it also releases tiny poisonous particles known as PM2.5. Small enough to penetrate deep into the lungs, these particles can aggravate respiratory conditions like asthma and can lead to lung cancer, coronary heart disease, strokes and early death.”(CNN)

“A report released Tuesday shows the emissions from use of fossil fuels was responsible for one in five premature deaths around the world in 2018 — significantly more than was previously thought. The study shows that burning fossil fuels have dire implications for the health of human beings, in addition to being a major contributing factor in climate change….. In 2018, 8.7 million people died prematurely as result of air pollution from fossil fuels, according to the new research from Harvard University in collaboration with the University of Birmingham, the University of Leicester and University College London.”(CNBC)

“Researchers found that regions with the highest concentrations of fossil-fuel related pollution have the highest rates of mortality. These regions include eastern North America, Europe and South-East Asia, which includes China and India.”(CBS News)

“Burning fossil fuels produce greenhouse gasses, which trap radiation from the sun, which is partially responsible for the climate crisis. But it also produces a "toxic cocktail" of tiny particles capable of entering our lungs, causing asthma, lung cancer, coronary heart disease and early death, among other health issues. Researchers analyzed this particulate matter, known as PM2.5, from a wide range of sectors, including power plants, planes, cars and other sources. They used a global 3D model that can distinguish between various pollution sources, allowing them to hone in on exactly what people are breathing in which regions. They found that as many as 30.7% of deaths in Eastern Asia, 16.8% in Europe and 13.1% in the U.S. can be attributed to fossil fuel pollution.”(CBS News)

In this world that we live in, with this coronavirus, no-one is safe until everyone is safe," said Prof Salim Abdool Karim, chair of the government's coronavirus advisory panel[of South Africa]….. "There's no endgame that sees one country succeeding in controlling the virus while the rest of the world is dealing with rampant spread. For me, we all need to stand together. It's in everyone's interests….."To me it would be unconscionable that a country like the US or UK to start vaccinating low risk young people, when we here in Africa haven't even started vaccinating healthcare workers and the elderly. "At the rate at which things are going, that is what's going to happen," he warned.” (BBC)

“The artificial program works by analyzing various data sources from dead people such as: images, voice data, social media posts, electronic messages, and other personal information. The program would be able to look at pictures of people and create 2D or 3D images to embody the AI program. Not only loved ones, but the program would also be able to copy fictional characters, celebrities, and historical figures. And if people really wanted to, Microsoft says they will be able to train AI's to copy their own essence in the event of their death.”(Game Rant)
