Many dictatorships actually do. The question is more like "is it a process that only exists on paper?". If an election ends with a 98% approval of the supreme leader (or whatever the designation), then it's probably rigged an

Maybe a sufficiently crafty vendor of MITM equipment could prevent MITM site certificates that are signed by evil intermediate CAs from appearing in CT logs by filtering access to those CT logs. But it is a risky proposition for the vendor,

Another small correction: In order to MITM https, you need access to either a trusted root certificate and key, or a key & certificate with the CA bit set, signed by a valid root CA.

You are both right and wrong, because you (and I) are not clearly distinguishing between different kinds of efficiency and effectiveness. Liquid cooling is, without question, more /effective/. It makes things cooler, it has a far

Not good. As you can see, even the upper side connections are submerged, and plugs still look like standard components. Nothing to say of the backplane connectors on the lower side and RAM and CPU connections. They seem to just have taken a

Because the temperature spread a given heat pump uses isn't really suitable for district heating, your output water would only be in the 50 to 60°C range at most, too low for typical district heating systems. One can get around that wi

Yes, heat reuse is easier with water cooling since the losses are smaller, but even air cooling will produce warm water in the end. There will be coming regulations requiring a certain amount of heat reuse, but in a first step, this probabl

Since it is about public institutions, any public servant disobeying will be disciplined. That can include strongly worded letters, demotions or even firing. For public institutions spending money on (for them) illegal goods, activities or

This pops up every few years. I can remember building a liquid cooled LAN-party rig at some point. But imho especially immersion cooling is a dead end. Contact problems with cabling lower reliability because the isolating coolant creeps bet

If you would detonate the moon, break it up into small pieces and smear them out over its orbit, tidal friction would cease. Tidal friction is a major component of the earth's rotation's slowdown.

Basically, things like the weather can influence the speed of rotation. Angular momentum changes when mass is closer to the center of gravity or farther out. That measurably includes mass like water in clouds and leafs on trees.

Very much so. Look at astronomical software, e.g. xephem. There will be a "clocks" tab that displays a number of different clocks, TAI (atomic clock, no leap seconds), UTC (global civil time), media solar time (GMT, which ISN&#x27
