They were subpoenaed because of the judge's personal dislike for those accounts. It had nothing to do with the law.

> X will likely be blocked in Brazil at the ISP level. That is not what is being discussed. That's just people on the internet saying that.

I'm a C developer. What I see from some in the C kernel dev camp is a refusal to participate, and further an active attempt to stonewall progress. The Rust devs have been highly accommodating in every possible way, but that's just

You don't get past the ads, but over-the-air TV still exists and is technologically impossible to track you individually. Also, if you're connecting your TV to the internet, that's a "you" problem.

Bringing out silly and absurd strawmen attacks like "you're trying to convince everyone to switch over to the religion as promulgated by Rust" is anything but "perfectly reasonable".

My understanding is the Linux kernel devs are refusing to explain the API and put it down in writing with clear documentation on what the contract is, and then they further gaslight and twist the situation with messaging like "you&#x27

The title is misleading. This doesn't mean the shut down of the website. Just suspending local operations of X, the company, inside Brazil.

I read the title and I assumed it was talking about a dishwashing machine. Why hand wash dishes? Just let the machine do the job.

If your goal is to create a space where people can only say nice things and only agree with you, then yeah this a great method to do it. It's a great way to create a tiny bubble of like-minded people and allow you to spiral ever deeper

Well I was considering creating a Bluesky account, but now I definitely won't. I don't want my comments getting purged just because I argued with the author of a post. This isn't "Anti-Toxicity" in as much it as &qu

I find it highly amusing that people on here actually think secure messaging platforms are "locally backdoored". Despite what the article says, Telegram is not even a nominally end-to-end encrypted platform. You need to jump throu

It's a dark purple, and it happened when Apple changed the design language such that all applications need to look like rounded squares. I dearly miss skeuomorphism. Making everything look identical is just horrible for ergonomics.

NASA is a fundamentally political organization. Given that it's political the risk isn't worth it. Risk only happened early in NASA's history (Apollo) because the alternative geopolitical risk (Soviets landing humans on the m

Whether it has chlorine or not depends on the treatment system used. The document states only 0.2 micrograms of chlorine per liter of water.

by mlindner 2y ago
The article claims 113 micrograms per liter, the document claims "<0.113" micrograms per liter. Page 177. Also called "Report Page 20 of 71". RL stands for "Reporting Limit".

SpaceX does not own any "Fremont paint factory". We're not talking about "he" here. We're talking about SpaceX.

There isn't any significant levels of mercury in the water. The "high level" comes from a typo. https://www.tceq.texas.gov/downloads/permitting/wastewater/t...

That's because there's the actual texas environmental report doesn't claim high levels of mercury in the samples. The high level comes from a typo of putting the decimal point in the wrong spot. https://www.tceq.te

I mean it makes lots of sense. I'm in South Bay and the amount of vacant corporate buildings around here is ridiculous. The property prices have to be falling through the floor. Lots of companies substantially downsized their footprint

How is it naive? Americans have allegiance to the Constitution, not to whoever happens to be sitting in the seat of government. This is foundational to thinking of your average American. And yeah there would probably be some nation-wide vio

What actually constitutes an "attempt to overthrow a government"? Do you think a random mob would be followed by the country as a whole? Do you have so little faith in the government's institutions that they'd just agree

For reference, they apparently referenced a study that was noted by its own authors to be incorrect in claiming that there were piping plovers sightings that were decreasing. https://x.com/SpaceX/status/18111209969

Costs aren't going way up year on year though. Keep in mind that NASA already sends billions per year to Boeing for station support.

Guns don't make shockwaves that damage your brain. Damage your hearing without ear protection, sure, but they're not sending shockwaves through your skull.
