Celsius is not an absolute scale. You need to use Kelvin for that meaning that a 1.5C increase is close to a 0.5% increase in global average temperature.

Does this also happen in Zerotier? Don't take me wrong, I think tailscale is absolutely great, I'm just interested in trying Zerotier for a while since it has integration with OPNSense (in the GUI, I know tailscale works fine if y

It’s childish antics to attack a media platform for taking a political position, when they also openly and covertly took a political position. It just happened to be the opposite political position.

This totals a commuting time of 9h a day - never-mind all the hassle. What are the renting prices for places in the UK that are 4.5h a drive/train away from London?

They were 8 months in space close to 0G and they just returned to our normal gravity environment. Just think for a moment how hard that is on the human body. I would expect them to go to the hospital right away

I can not bypass the fact that basically no other developed country allows citizens to vote without proper official photo identification, neither that the sates that allow people to vote without any identification, are the ones where the De

My point is that other developed countries are perfectly able to have a transparent electoral process and present the results in very little time, even doing everything by paper voting. Arguments that you need voting machines, or extensive

I’m arguing it’s not a factor. In Portugal vote by mail is negligible and we get the results late the same night.

Vote by mail is completely negligible in countries where the described process works fine.

I don’t know why this is so hard in America. All other developed countries make this work, what are Americans lacking? The system is just: - Keep a list of citizens allowed to vote - Print paper ballots with the names of the candidates - as

I’m constantly marveled at the reliability of an extremely complex machine, with hundreds of moving parts, that was built more than 50 years ago, in operation for 47 years, and built to operate for only 5 years.

I would think that a people that was close to extinction through genocide only 80 years ago, cares little about what other people authorizes them to do in order to protect themselves. They were attacked from Lebanon, they retaliate. It’s qu

Why are they there then? Seems they are willingly serving as human shields to prevent Israel from retaliating against Hezbollah attacks.

But we observe this everywhere, even in the Andromeda galaxy, so, universe age is not a factor for the rotation curve of galaxies.

by wtcactus 2y ago
Interesting. How do we explain the missing mass in the galaxies then (the observed rotation curve of galaxies needs a bigger mass than that of the stars that it is made of)?

Can wet please stop this nonsense of calling psychology a science, and starting these kind of articles with “science says”? This is really eroding public trust on real science.

Well, I think Dune II from Villeneuve is pretty bad in most aspects. It just that the cinematography and the soundtrack are so fantastic by themselves, that they make us forget how mediocre is the rest of the movie.

Well. At least it's not more derivative or reboot or "multiverse" stuff. It's new. Something Hollywood forgot how to make during this past decade.

My plan is to only upgrade when a 13 mini alternative comes out - and only after it’s been out for 2 years so that I can buy it used for an acceptable price. I understand there’s not as much demand for smaller smartphones, but then again, I

For a company so focused on the “Diversity and Inclusion” trope [1] this seems highly hypocritical of Mozilla. I would really like it for them to spell it out what DEI means for them, because, it’s clear it’s not about being inclusive with
