One study published Monday by Stockholm’s Karolinska Institute finds that omicron does, indeed, appear to reduce the effectiveness of vaccines in some people, but also that the decrease in efficacy varies widely, with some people maintaining immunity at levels consistent with prior versions of the virus. On the one hand, some blood sera show a greatly resistant antibody response. “We find neutralizing antibody responses in pooled reference sera sampled shortly after infection or vaccination are substantially less potent against Omicron, with neutralizing antibody titers reduced by up to 45 fold compared to those for the pandemic founder,” write authors Daniel J....

How I Became a Reluctant Expert On Identity Theft I’m changing the facts around slightly in these stories to protect the innocent. Around 15 years ago, my father passed away, and it caused a financial crisis in my family of origin. Money was tight, and I helped out when I could. However, that was not enough.

Fans of the Starz sci-fi spy drama Counterpart woke up to some bad news today, as series creator Justin Marks announced the premium cabler won’t be picking the series up for season 3.

A report yesterday suggested that anyone eager to get their hands on the long-rumored Apple Glasses might have to wait a while. An internal presentation reportedly said that we won’t see third-party devices until 2022, and Apple Glasses until 2023. But what was perhaps most interesting was the claim that Apple believes its glasses product will replace the iPhone within a decade… On the face of it, that seems unlikely. Sure, if you already wear glasses, then I can absolutely see smart glasses making sense....

It’s been seven months since COVID-19 fundamentally changed the way Apple Stores operate. In that time, we’ve learned to accept the realities and limitations of a new store environment. We’ve seen new ideas that work remarkably well. And we’ve even discovered parts of the store experience that are nicer now than before the pandemic.
