These are next up on the chopping block and the same logic used to overturn Roe v Wade can be used to overturn those. Thomas is merely voicing that reality instead of playing coy like other reactionary justices.

Asking someone not to use american slurs on an American forum is the same as saying 'I'm better than you'? Hard disagree. I think that says a lot more about you than it does about me.

I quit vaping a couple years ago and the subjective positive health benefits were immense. It seems nicotine by itself has plenty of negative effects: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4363846/ My

I’m curious how you know it’s a formidable barrier. You sure they just don’t care about you? I’ve never tested this hypothesis, I assume everything I do online is basically “in the clear” for advanced nation states.

If our government can catch money launderers because they’re running empty washing machines or selling unused tickets to shows, it’s hard to think of anything useful crypto can do that couldn’t be meaningfully regulated away.

That by itself would be extremely interesting, but the article text is: “What happens inside a magnetar is a matter of pure speculation. Physicists think that the surface of a magnetar is covered in a shell of heavy atomic nuclei and free e

Oh it's much worse than that. "However, even before impact, the tidal force would cause spaghettification, breaking any sort of an ordinary object into a stream of material."

Love me some magnetars. Gonna nitpick here, a piece of the article claims that if you fell off a neutron star mountain 1-2cm tall, by the time you hit the ground you'd be traveling at half the speed of light. This appears to be false

I have a feeling we'll find that outside of galaxies are even bigger, stranger, more impossible horrors that our galaxy was protecting us from.

I've read one book in that series, "Surface Detail", and really enjoyed it. I tried reading the first one in the series and got bored... any others in the series you can strongly recommend? Player of Games maybe?

Seems like sextillionaires were pretty awful for the economic stability of those African countries. You just reinforced GP’s point.

All I know is 90% of my steam gaming library won’t run on my MacBook Pro, including recent releases. I won’t be getting the M1 or the M2 or anything like that until Apple computers at least have Linux-tier support for games.

It’s also worth noting Tesla is nearly infamous at this point for making owners sign NDAs in exchange for repairs when their autopilot is likely at fault.

It really is insane. It’s one thing to have flaws, it’s quite another to stealth cover-them-up like it’s a game of hide and seek.

I have a large steam library and it's all locally installed (and backed up) for precisely this reason. while cracking is an option, legitimately purchased games on steam don't need to be cracked, offline mode is designed to work i

It was a fairly large premium and it waived due diligence and had a $1B termination fee. I don't think the board expected Elon to sign the offer, it was very biased in Twitter's favor. But I think Elon was feeling much too impress

Yeah, I don't understand why people think this is still in the "dealmaking" phase. Twitter got Musk to agree to a certain price. The deal is done. Either Musk buys Twitter at the agreed price, or he's forced to admit he

Elon is bluffing that he has the right to perform due diligence. Twitter has every legal right to ignore him. Instead, they played along, thus "calling his bluff".

I’m still using my 2013 MPro Retina as a nice backup computer (when I need to do MacOS things), I refuse to sell it. It had the last good keyboard before the butterfly came along.

I’m not very familiar with the reasoning behind Wikipedia’s decisions. In this case, the controversies seem highly relevant to the papers being churned up. I appreciate the effort the authors of the rationwiki article put forth. It’s distri

Wikipedia policy about biographies of living people prevents this kind of “expose” type article from being written.

Indeed, it seems they went into the study with preconceived notions about the superiority of men. Garbage in, garbage out. Edit: just looked up the author. yikes... https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Emil_O._W._Kirkegaard

Seems like you need to avoid guesses that can get you trapped like that, and therein lies the extra difficulty, no?
