In a blog post published by Signal on Tuesday, the company said the disappearing messaging setting automatically will apply to any new conversations. Before the update, Signal users only could enable disappearing messages per conversation, but the new policy allows you to control any future disappearing messages....

That said, too much of a good thing can be harmful. High potassium, medically known as hyperkalemia, is a common laboratory finding. The diagnosis is made when levels in the blood are greater than 5.5 mEq/L. Interestingly, most people do not get any symptoms from it. When they do, those symptoms are often mild and nonspecific, including common complaints like fatigue and generalized weakness. Most people do not experience more concerning symptoms until their potassium level reaches 7....

Fernandes’s appointment has roiled the campus from the moment her selection was announced by the board of trustees in May. Students and faculty began complaining that her management style as provost had been heavy-handed, and that she was insufficiently attentive to the different degrees of deafness on campus. Critics also claimed she was not committed enough to promoting deaf culture, which has traditionally favored sign language over hearing aids. (Although she was born deaf, Fernandes didn’t learn to sign until she was 23, and some worry that she will focus too much on technology to “fix” deafness rather than embrace it....

Now that Bloober is confirmed to be involved, fans will undoubtedly be comparing the developer’s previous work to what the original Silent Hill 2 was able to achieve. Seeing how these experiences could be relative is mainly through their shared sense of horror and visual realism. This will hopefully be a bold and positive step forward for the franchise. Likewise, the remake’s over-the-shoulder perspective should do a lot to make it feel like modern third-person horror games, while still remaining faithful to the nostalgic iconography from the original Silent Hill 2....

Many were expecting to see the Silent Hill PS5 reboot at The Game Awards 2020. Unfortunately, the event came and went with no sign of the game. PlayStation did show off the upcoming PS5 exclusive game Returnal, due out for release in March, but otherwise most of the world premiere trailers were dedicated to other games and companies. But while this may make Silent Hill fans lose hope that the PS5 reboot even exists, they shouldn’t give up just yet....

This workplace policy move is destined to create conflict, animosity and even a departure of talented staff. Business leaders need to understand the danger before it’s too late to change course. Roughly one in 10 Americans moved during the COVID-19 pandemic—Silicon Valley in particular experienced a mass exodus. The introduction of widespread remote work allowed many workers to de-camp from large urban centers. Some moved back into their childhood bedrooms, while others fled to the suburbs, seeking a picket fence and backyard for their kids....

The 39-year-old has won praise for his impact at the club since replacing Mike Phelan in January, although he was unsuccessful in his efforts to steer them away from relegation from the Premier League. Silva has been linked with the vacant position at Watford, who sacked Walter Mazzarri on Wednesday, but he is keen to finish the season in the best way possible before revealing his plans. “We start talks and we will have one more meeting next week and after we will announce to you and to the fans our decision,” he told a news conference ahead of Sunday’s match with Tottenham....

Ronaldo back in the groove for Madrid — but it’s time to start Morata ahead of Benzema Carrasco provided two fine finishes across goalkeeper Carlos Kameni to find the bottom corners as Atletico bounced back from last week’s 1-0 defeat at Sevilla. Those goals took Carrasco’s tally to six goals in the past four games across all competitions and, while Simeone acknowledged that his hard work is paying off, he urged the former Monaco star to keep aiming high....

Marseille needed extra-time to clinch progression to the final, beating Red Bull Salzburg 3-2 on aggregate in the semi-final, while Atletico earned a 1-1 draw against Arsenal in London before beating the Gunners 1-0 in the second leg to set up a clash with Rudi Garcia’s men. The showpiece in Lyon will be Marseille’s first major European final since they were beaten 2-0 by Valencia in the UEFA Cup in 2004, and since then Atletico have won the competition twice and played in two Champions League finals....

The gymnast left the competition floor after making a mistake during her performance on the vault at Tuesday’s Olympic Games. The four-time Olympic gold winner and the most successful U.S. gymnast ever was going for her first of six possible gold medals in Tokyo in the women’s team gymnastics final. The 24-year-old did a Yurchenko one-and-a-half and almost fell forward on the landing. She had planned to execute a Yurchenko vault with two-and-a-half twists, but bailed out at the last second, meaning she only performed one-and-a-half twists which resulted in a much lower starting score for the athlete....

If you’re working indoors, ventilate the area as much as possible to deal with the dust. Open nearby doors and windows. Turn on any available ventilation fans and vacuum up dust when you’re done.

Instead, clean it out and choose an appropriate patching compound....

Read the instructions for any product you use. While cable testers are similar, different products may have different instructions. The cable tester may have both an insertion and receiver jack on one piece, meaning you don’t need a two-piece tester. Some other testers have both options, so you can run the cable into other rooms if you want to. Make sure there is a battery in the tester before you use it....
