A diabetes drug has been found to eliminate senescent cells — which accumulate with age and contribute to hardening of the arteries and other diseases — in mice, paving the way for research on aging-related diseases, researchers at a Tokyo university say. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2024/05/31/japan/science-health/diabetes-drug-aging/

How do you solve the problem of a rapidly aging population? Japan's government has a novel answer: change what "elderly" means. PM Kishida's government is reportedly considering a proposal to raise the definition of old age from 65 to 70. Read more below.

I've achieved the level of baldness/receding hairline, where I have two options to avoid burning my pate: wear a hat; or slather on sunblock. 🙄

I need to remember this if I spend a day swimming! 🏊‍♂️

@chessert Then I would suggest a truly cool hat! Something like a pork pie.

Once I turned 60, and especially after I no longer had a job to go to, I ceased caring what anyone else thinks about my appearance. I mean that in a healthy way. I think that's true for most men my age, unless you're a narcissist. 🤷‍♂️

Sucks when your elderly mother, who hardly ever uses her iPhone, spends ~$250 on a cellular apple watch so it'll call 911 if she falls and doesn't respond, and then when she gets it she can't use it because she has an iPhone 6s+ and Apple wants to force her to upgrade so they won't allow it to pair.

So now what's she supposed to do? Spend $800+ on an iPhone she'll barely use just so she won't have to buy another one for 4-5 years?

I have some coworkers and was telling them about how we used to take our car stereo face plates with us when we left the car back in the days when stereos weren't integrated into the dash and you wanted a nice one.

They were very amazed. So I made this meme.

@renwillis I absolutely had an aftermarket one in my 240 that had this feature. I don’t think I once used it, though. It was a 240. No one was gonna try and boost that.

@renwillis Fun story:
Sis "inherited" dad's baby blue Saab 99 with a POS stereo in it when she went off to Uni.

One morning every single car had been broken into on the parking lot and their stereos taken... except in sis car there was a better one lying on the seat.

Our guess is that the thieves had realized THAT one was worthless, broken into my sis' car, found that one even WORSE and just dumped the better one in her seat.

Dad installed it a week later after the police didn't want it.

"More than four years after covid first raged through many U.S. nursing homes, hundreds of lawsuits blaming patient deaths on negligent care have been tossed out or languished in the courts amid contentious legal battles.

Even some nursing homes that were shut down by health officials for violating safety standards have claimed immunity against such suits, court records show."

A total of 21,716 people in Japan died alone at home from January through March, nearly 80% of whom were 65 or older, the National Police Agency said in releasing an official tally on solitary deaths for the first time. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2024/05/14/japan/society/japan-solitary-deaths/
