There is such a thing as evil. No one is ever 100% evil or 100% good, but that doesn’t mean evil doesn’t exist.

Still a lot of “drugs are bad” propaganda in that article

I understand your guess, but no, that essentially isn’t possible
iirc battery function management is supposed to happen at a firmware level. So hypothetically it shouldn’t be effected by what os you install. I think what you experienced was just a byproduct of keeping it plugged in 24/7

So many discoveries of mars’ surface are scientifically very important and interesting but not like cool in the traditional sense. But rubies from mars, now that’s cool!
Love, sweet love. It’s the only thing that there’s just too little of
30·2 months agoYeah even for this person’s selfish thought process i don’t see how they feel comfortable doing this. The whole time it’s there they should be constantly worried that their car will get keyed
The main problem with nuclear power is that it’s the most expensive form of electricity. People who say otherwise are only looking at the cost of running the generator, rather than including all the true costs involved in generating each watt, which is called the “Levelized Cost Of Electricity” (LCOE)

So there’s no reason to build any new nuclear generators now that renewables+storage are the cheapest form of electricity, and are also the easiest and fastest to build.
Not OP, but my position has always been the constitutional position of “a well regulated militia”. Like imo you shouldn’t be able to have guns in your home, but it would be fine if there was a single gun locker on literally every block where you could store an entire personally-owned arsenal, as long as the locker met strict security rules and the gun users met strict and recurring training requirements.
This is a topic I’ve gotten disagreement on from my fellow lefties for a long time, and I’m glad they’re finally starting to understand. I’ve always believed in strong gun control laws, but not a ban.
Abortion - till i was about 14 i had thought it should be illegal, but then i grew up a little bit more and realized the topic wasn’t like it was being presented at all. The truth is that in many cases an abortion is the best outcome for all parties involved, including the fetus, the person who’s pregnant, and all of the rest of us in the world.
And when you start thinking about how to build a system in charge of differentiating which pregnancies should be aborted vs which should be carried to term it immediately becomes clear that if anyone besides the pregnant woman gets to decide then it becomes a literal waking nightmare of horror movie scenarios.
In any non-juvenile view it’s obvious that abortion has to be legal, easily available, and entirely up to the pregnant woman to decide on
Checks and balances in the US government would stop a president from doing anything truly egregious. Unfortunately that belief has been proven very very incorrect
(There was always the regular corruption and killing that the US was doing, but that was the “regular” accepted type of horribleness built into our system. But i truly thought the checks and balances would prevent the occurrence of extremely out of the ordinary radically new nakedly illegal tyrant style horrors.)
2·2 months agoThe word “notebooks” in your comment makes your point really unclear in this context. I think you might be referring to portable computers but the way it reads sounds like your referring to actual paper books

Is there a reference I’m missing?
iirc I’ve heard about this device from memes for a few years now. Is it actually coming to market or is it vaporware?
