Propaganda is not dependent on the speaker. If you look at historic propaganda of the german third reich, it's still propaganda, despite it possibly being a digital copy in a school book. Propaganda is information or media that is purp

IE11 gets enough of grid support that it won't look absolutely terrible in most cases. Sufficient to get users by and maybe tell them to switch to a proper browser (ie, Firefox which has subgrid too)

In Europe the grid is controlled by the operators, inverters that are grid tied follow the operator commands to increase frequency or decrease frequency. The phase is kept synchronous with UTC.

I would say that the noble price has been given out for a long time, if recent rule changes lead to more female winners, then this would not be visible in absolute percentages of all winners. By the definition of "more men than women&#

There should be no concern with your phone being 1 meter or less away from you. Even at full wattage, a phone transceiver will give off around 100mW, in most realistic scenarios it will be less than a tenth of that. Even if you used the max

That's why you have three hetzner servers, so if one goes toast, you still have a redundant operation as you can easily failover while you recover the other host.

In my above example, by doing nothing you pick winners. Not in all situations, doing nothing is doing nothing. Take the famous trolley problem. By doing nothing you pick 5 people to die, if you do something you pick 1 person to die. One of

In my experience in germany, gas is sold as is from the tank, so even at 1200m you'll get Euro95 or Euro98.

The market Google and Friends are in is not a horse race. It's more like you know that someone is manipulating the bets on the horse race, possibly even forcing results by paying off the competitors. If you do nothing, you are picking

Your router is likely to die before you max out 10Mpps. Especially if you have a NAT, that'll probably be more reasonably close to 10-30kpps.

The police would very much enforce them, they aren't in charge of what is constitutional or not, unless your police is incompetent. What you'd rather want to say is "they are thrown out in court". >It is simply not th

Then I think the issue is simple. Any speech made illegal by law isn't protected unless the supreme court rules that case to be different, IIRC you americans have precedence rules for that sort of stuff. Protected speech is any legal s

What does protected speech mean and how does it differ from not being protected if it is different from laws making certain things illegal? And how is legal/illegal relevant to arguing in relation to protected/unprotected since it

And how exactly is that worse than an uneven number of people? If there is an uneven number of people there is no bias of a tie breaker to balance out.

I live in germany and can confirm that Jets go supersonic there. Live near both a US and german air force base and both sometimes go supersonic, more often it's the german air force to go after an unresponsive plane, probably about onc

Depends on how you look at it. If you look into holographic theory (which I prefer personally) then the entire mass of a black hole is represented as information on the surface of the black hole, explaining the relation between mass and sur

You either need enough of it so it goes prompt critical on it's own (which is very different from being critical, which means your largely running on natural fission, prompt means that your fission rates become exponential), without re

I would also point out that even with access to the parts, getting into the guiness world records book is expensive (one of the main reason speedruns rarely make it there). So it's likely 10k$ for parts and labor plus 10k$ to get their

Well, the thing is that Mysql latin1/cp1252 isn't actually code page 1252, it's a tad different. There are extra characters that CP1252 doesn't know about, so it's not entirely compatible with CP1252 or Windows-1252

Chrome does not have to stagnate to become the new IE6, browser monocultures are bad, doubly so if sponsored by an adnetwork megacorporation like Google. Besides, if all other browser engines die, why would Google continue to innovate beyon

A black hole containing all matter in the universe wouldn't be much denser than the current average density of the universe. Spacetime expanding sorta helps keep things from blowing apart. It's an interesting factoid that blackhol

Well, if a mastodon instance admin decides to ban you, that's their personal decision. You can go to another instance. If another user blocks you, that's on them but you have no right to push your messages into another user's
