The leading vaccine regulator at the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has announced a far stricter course for federal vaccine approvals,

Well that's an easy way to distribute the rest of stickers: I left a carton box about 20*20*20 cm somewhere, with the rest of my stickers. It has my name and my DECT number on it.
If you find it, please share its content. Or call me. #39c3
Update: found it. And as intended it's almost empty

Flying drones used during the Ukraine war have changed land battle tactics for ever.
Now the same thing appears to be happening under the sea.
Navies around the world are racing to add autonomous submarines.

Beckstrom initially did not want to go to the capital because she was concerned about feeling lonely away from home.
“She hated it. She cried about it,” her boyfriend said.
But with time, she came to enjoy the deployment and bonded with other troops.
In her spare time, he said, she visited monuments and museums, taking pictures and soaking up D.C.’s history.
She was especially interested in the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum
