Anyone in the field know if lattice degeneration would be considered 'loss of blood vessels in the retina' this study is looking for?

You have a child in this 'simulation'.

They want a warrant for Microsofts data. The warrant comment is probably aimed at US citizens data on a third parties servers.
EFF explicitly says the Cloud Act enables: 'Empower U.S. police to grab any data, regardless if it's a U.S. person's or not, no matter where it is stored.'

They usually throw on a few, if not ten, megabytes of libraries and glue to get them to work on the respective os/framework they are landing on. Download size still matters outside of metropolitan areas, and performance is always important.

Quite the assertion, that one. I feel like this was ripped straight out of an insane FWD:FWD:FWD email thread one of my older relatives would send.
