Another interesting option is making objects out of paper pulp. You can 3D print molds to produce interesting designs that way https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=0ItPfhx3ulw&pp=ygUXM2QgcHJpbnQ...

Cars driving at high speed over normal asphalt also generate a lot of tire noies and particulate pollution, even if they are electric cars. I found this video pretty interesting - some cities are experimenting with different road surfaces t

Bicycles are another way to address traffic, because they take up so little room and can be essentially free and often more convenient for shorter trips. Of course that means you have to have bicycle infrastructure where you don't have

Honestly I think the title should be edited. The first time I scrolled past it I had the same obvious interpretation.

We don't have anhthing like a complete count of the dead yet. The 60k number the media still reports has barely moved in a year because Israel destroyed almost all of the health infrastructure that used to report deaths, and even befor

The analogy would be if the allies plan for ending WW2 was to ethnically cleanse the Japanese archipelago and expel Japanese people into, say, camps in Xinjiang. I imagine if they had consistently telegraphed such a plan for years during th

For those who don't know, Cuomo volunteered last year (apropos of nothing, he doesn't have relevant experience) to defend Netanyahu in the ICC. So any "change of mind" he might be expressing now is a little bit... Suspec

What would you do if you were a southern governor responding to a slave revolt? It's the same kind of question. I wouldn't build my society on ethnic supremacy and then seek to maintain that through force.

Imagine having your comment history and pretending to care about children in Gaza being blown to bits. Unreal.

I see that the person we replied to edited their comment. It originally said something along the lines of "that just says they failed to prevent genocide."

This is why many websites (even ones light on interactive functionality) now display a progress bar after loading the website. It's a big step backward for user experience and I even see it on blogs.

As someone else who does this, I think we're a pretty small audience. People shouldn't be building web apps with our reverse engineering experience in mind.

At least in the US many of these no-name disposable vapes have a really high nicotine concentration too (since they're basically illegal why bother with labeling or regulations). So they're much more addictive.

It literally says they bear responsibility for the commission of genocide. Did you fail to... read the one sentence you were responding to?

If you're talking to someone who is mostly computer illiterate, you'd say something like "do you see a folder icon on the screen that says My Cases? Double click on that." and not "go to My Cases"

I seem to remember Windows 95 had "My Computer" and the iMac came out in 1998, so the "My" labeling was already underway.

People keep doing this, so I don't see that it hurts to explain why, how, and what to do instead. Maybe this will click with someone who was about to make this mistake.

Why can't Gaza supply itself? There is farmland in Gaza. The Mediterranean sea is right there - plenty of fish. Other folks are free to Google the answers to these questions.

Because Israel controls that border crossing: https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/5/7/israel-takes-control... Even before this they had effective control of all goods moving through since 2007.
