PetaKit is great; it deals efficiently with large data, and it is easy to use. I can highly recommend it if you need deskewing, rotation and/or deconvolution for your post-processing. The repository is also not large, so it does not take much to clone it and try it out.

I felt physical pain reading this study. Actual physical pain. 18 months ago, very close friends' child was born with developmental problems. *these problems* 🚨The study says Covid infection during early pregnancy makes them *7 times more likely*. cell.com/med/abstract/S2666-…

A year ago we installed Far UVC in the dining area of a nursing home. Since then outbreaks have decreased by 85% and overall resident and staff well being has increased. This nursing home chose to use all possible tools to ensure their occupants stay safe from viruses. #faruvc #outbreaks #nursinghome #senior #assistedliving #cleanair

There has been an active shooter, shooting at cars in Raleigh for 3-4 days. People who travel I-40 that I actually know have been posting about it. I’ve seen one news article so far. This is wild NC!

Hello, people of X. Asking for a favor. Someone very close to me has adenoid cystic carcinoma of the breast. It's a VERY rare cancer. It's hard to find an actual person or doctor that has dealt with this before. If you know of such a person, please reach out - avance6 at gmail. We have tons of advice on parts of this but are really after this very specific quest. Someone - patient or doctor - that has dealt with ACC of the breast. Thanks!!!!

🚨URGENT🚨Getting reports people are being turned away to vote when their ID address doesn't match on file address - that is NOT correct! The addresses don't have to match. If you or someone you know runs into this, tell them to insist on filling out a provisional ballot.
