  • On a geological time scale 2cm a month is basically freefall

  • "More than two dozen" is a very inefficient way of saying 25

  • Yeah the guy is a very well-known not heroin importer and distributor

  • Solar used to have a very high upfront cost and a very long ROI time, but for use cases such as this, where the power draw is predictable and relatively low, solar is a no-brainer nowadays, with the price of both the panels and the batteries being so much lower than it used to be.

  • What? We can't let the Italians win, I'm taking out 3 loans immediately

  • This is a European issue, the Yanks aren't involved in this transaction.

    Them and Russia and Israel can go fuck themselves for being the aggressors.

  • The wax itself moves constantly around the lamp and has mass. Since the frequency this occurs in and the mass within each blob that moves up or down is somewhat random, I would imagine there are times when more mass moves up than down in different parts of the chandelier.

    I would expect that it would ever-so-slightly wobble because of that.

    Conclusion: we have our opposing theories and an experimental design.

    We must test this, for science!

  • Ukraine stands between the EU and Russia. 90B for the security of all member states is a great deal and the weapons tech developed in Ukraine alone can be shared to repay a big chunk of it.

  • The Onion just cannot compete

  • Teaming up to stand against our common toxic ex

  • US is not by any means as authoritarian as China.

    To achieve that, the US would need a government that controls mass media, kills people just for protesting, disappearing enemies of the government in remote prison camps with no oversight or accountability, have mass surveillance everywhere, make books illegal, demonstrably suppress all ethnic minorities, threaten religious leaders for speaking ill of the government...

    All run by a hardline government that has a strongman leader that people respect and a cabinet full of loyalists with competence in the task they're assigned.

    Once the US achieves that last bit, THEN they'll be as authoritarian as China.

  • The internet is still relatively new. The generations that don't understand it still govern.

    I think the millennials will be its last hope, because they remember the world without it, were young enough to understand it when it became popular and aren't yet old enough to have forgotten how much more fun it used to be.

    If that nostalgia finds its way into meaningful regulations, it'd be nice.

    If you think the human race as a collective organism, the internet is the nervous system. Suddenly we have eyes to see and ears to hear, we feel pain through it, we form collective thoughts and organize actions.

    We have collective intrusive thoughts and impulses, we store our memories there and we train it to anticipate and predict using prior knowledge and reasoning, as we do.

    We need to take care of it and feed it correct information or it'll become erratic and stagnant.

    I predict it'll be splintered into pieces and from them something new will emerge.

    Tech in general is peaking in performance and and so it must differentiate in features to be competitive

  • Great, now.i have to get a VPN to appear in Germany so that I can use the Firefox VPN

  • They could do it through each country individually to Ukraine and also withhold Hungary-bound funds equal to their share.

  • A years-long war of attrition, guerilla warfare and cannon fodder in 4K HDR Dolby Atmos, for every country without nuclear deterrence, either by themselves or an allied nation (France mostly).

    Europe needs to put serious money in chip fabs and counter-drone technology cause if Ukraine falls and Russia seizes their drone factories the drones are gonna be flying in by the thousands.

  • Some of you may die, but that's a sacrifice I'm willing to make.

  • Toner is cheaper if you have a laser black only, lots of pages per refill.

    At work I've installed 10 color inkjet epson L6460 printers 2-3 years ago and most of them I still haven't refilled.

    They come with 2 bottles of black ink and one of everything else, last forever, will print after 4 months unused if you do a print head cleaning (a few times in a row) and the Epson brand bottles are 8 - 12 bucks each.

    For home use a cheaper Ecotank would probably serve you just as well.

  • You are now on a list.

  • Germany sold some submarines to Greece that were leaning over on one side out the factory
