Yes, with cell phones only if you dial any of the emergency numbers the phone will connect you with emergency dispatch.
That way if you’re in Timbuktu you can still get ahold of police without knowing their emergency phone number as a tourist.

Honestly, as a former 911 operator, how would you actually want them to react in case it was a real situation?
It’s better to err on the side of caution. And now we learned a feature of Siri to pay attention to.

Reply to comment by autoposting_system in Researchers propose that the role of the ectomycorrhizal fungi should be taken into account in models of carbon accounting. by KoalaWide2345
Agreed.
North America was fundamentally changed in the last ice age to be dependent on fungi breaking down soil matter, as the native worms were frozen to extinction.
It’s interesting because we know enough about fungi to know it’s a fundamental aspect of the ecosystem, but continue to learn more as to its individual impact.
Because every species of fungi operates slightly differently, a homogenous model may not be ever be adequately functional due to the sheer number of species and regional differences alone.
Highly recommend people join mycological groups for more information. They are fun and often get scientists in their meetings to impart more knowledge to us plebiscites.
