I've heard of this solution before. I think the greater concern is that other people might gain access by diving down and gathering it back up. I've heard a solution to that is to put it in some container that's highly cond

Cool, your country fell way behind every other developed nation in this and you've missed out on a huge industry. In the end, your citizens will still use the products, they'll just probably end up having to pay more for the same

It's doubly crazy because who's ever heard of software devs not following standards? They're called engineers for a reason! ;)

With AI on the horizon and each server farm using as much energy as a medium-sized city, I have no idea how they hope to meet demand otherwise, unless the plan is just some equivalent to "drill baby drill".

It's not. Not only is it a completely negligible amount (~one 50-gallon barrel per reactor per year), it's easy to store (literally kitty litter) and can be re-enriched (renewable).

I think you could reduce the profession of journalism to “forced transparency”, which can be a form of accountability unto itself. In short: because it’s simply who they are by definition

I don't think anyone is arguing either of those things, but 12k excess deaths in a country of 330 million means this should logically be incredibly low on our priority list. What else with a 0.00006% (20k/330M) chance of happeni

I just want to make clear what the other commenter said: type 2 is completely reversible in its early stages. Lose weight, eat a more healthy diet, and you should see your body return to normal. Unfortunately, there's a serious time

I've never heard anyone say knives are particularly dangerous outside of people trained in how to fight with them. They tend to be pretty damn short to begin with, unless you're sneaking a machete around in your pants (or are you

Yeah, we have an insane number of gang shootings.

Nobody is talking about replacing everything with VR, or anything even close to that.

I can’t help but think this is 99% due to the media. I would bet a million bucks, no matter who you are, that you personally will not get shot. That’s easy math. But I also know human brains are bad at statistics. Meh.

What makes you think most of Americans walking around worried about a shooting? Are they still worried about terrorist attacks and bear maulings too? I’m probably wrong, but dang this seems like such a silly thing to personally worry about.

If you’re talking about the old white guy apprehended at the scene, he was released.

This is exactly what the quote is saying. You are adding on your own layer of bias by assuming he’s incorrect.

I don’t know why this is downvoted. It’s not incorrect. I posit that everyone who’s willing to kill someone in cold blood is at least a little off their rocker.

I think we saw 7 minute videos become 10 minutes, not a 20x increase in length for super short-form ones.

by kulahan 1y ago
Worth mentioning that literally any video under 60 seconds is forced to be a short, which is that stupid type of YouTube video where they remove a bunch of controls and make the overall experience miserable. So maybe that’s pushing longer-f

I was making a point that complaining about strawmen you invent is a waste of time. The people who clapped as musk revved a chainsaw and then went home and complained about farm shit don’t exist. Farmers aren’t spending all day on Twitter.

Ah, from that point of view, I can agree. It’s shocking how few books I can find in my local library. Not a single one by GK Chesterton, and half a million people live in my town. Wtf? Still, I think we should keep books as available to cit

This article mostly talks about a program for girls in developing countries, not US students in general, and it barely touches on the topic of food. What happened to NPR? They were my favorite a few years ago, but man this is a bad article.

by kulahan 1y ago
Have you not been in a library in like 50 years? It’s a hell of a lot more than a “small building which doesn’t have the resources they need”.

Crazy how “chainsaw”, “musk”, and “revved” don’t show up anywhere in the article. You’d think people this angry would at least have a basis for it!

Nope! I’ve never had to sign anything every seven days as a user. This is a weird and completely unfounded lie.

You mean explicitly stating the assistance is bad and should stop? How will you fit that into your desperate attempt to hate?

by kulahan 1y ago
Got it, so there was no line in the article and you’re just whining irrelevantly. Just wanted to be sure before I ignored it as the stupid-ass comment it is.

Yes, I meant that upcoming change. I suppose I could’ve said “now that the decision has been made to…”, as if that’s somehow better.

Seemed highly specific to me. Monopolization of suppliers who lobby for bailouts instead of change, knowing that bailout money goes straight from farmers to the suppliers.

Lighter == better, thinner == cooler. Phones are essentially identical these days anyways, and choosing one over another is based on ever-minimizing differences. Now that you can't even install third-party apps easily on Android, this
