Smoke is mostly particulates, I think, and most of it will absolutely stick to the jacket and spare the clothing below.
Enforcing DRM has a big downside: it paints a massive target on the DRM implementation, and it will likely end up getting broken.

In this case, I’d say the censorship worked in favor of Hamas, and while “poorly moderated” platforms did give them the opportunity to spread their “propaganda”, Hamas used it to show everyone their true face. The result of the propaganda was people who were previously sympathetic to the Palestinian’s cause we’re now calling for Gaza to be turned into a parking lot.
I also find it rather rich that the article is complaining about misinformation when most of the press printed the lie about the hospital attack as if it was a fact.
Aren’t succulents toxic for cats?
Edit: only some… like the aloe vera in the picture :(
All 3 that had been in for drugs. “more defendants in Illinois are serving life sentences for non-drug offenses under the three-strikes law”
On one hand, these laws are cruel, and essentially “we’re giving up on this person, and throwing them away”. On the other hand, letting innocent people get victimized over and over by the same person is cruel too.
Drug possession for personal use being treated as a severe crime is a massive problem, with or without these laws, and it undoubtedly made the effect of these laws worse and unjust. Good on the governor for addressing that part.
Dogecoin to the moon! /s
(The lander will contain a box of various mementos. Since the contents of that box were collected in the middle of the cryptocurrency craze, various groups of course included various tokens representing their favorite coin, especially as “to the moon” was and is a meme representing the desired massive rise in value.)
Title made me think centimeters.

I would love to see a 3D geolocated trajectory. The videos didn’t seem to make sense to my eyes, but trying to estimate 3D movement on a 2D video in the dark with no references is entirely pointless, and I’m not even sure I looked at the correct alleged rocket.
I’m not saying that I doubt the “Palestinian rocket” explanation, it seems like the most plausible theory right now, I’d just like to see what I misinterpreted or misestimated.
Israel promised radar data, did they share any publicly?
I’m somewhat familiar with the problems behind Trust & Safety, and this game depicts them well, although of course simplified.
You may also like https://novehiclesinthepark.com/ which shows how ridiculously hard it is to write a policy and/or enforce a policy consistently.
Whenever you see a bullshit decision from a tech company, remember those two games.
It absolutely is a thing. Network effect matters. Usability matters. Open source/community solutions usually lack that (and the lack of familiarity makes it worse).
Because it’s presumably cheaper to park an aircraft carrier in the area than to take the economic impact at home that an escalation would lead to (due to rising oil prices etc.)
I’m not worried about fully cured CA glue on a non-contact surface of a shelf that holds bottles/milk packs etc., or honestly even fruit whose peel you don’t eat.
Given that CA-based glues are used for wound closure and apparently even as dental adhesives, I’ll trust https://www.ontariopoisoncentre.ca/household-hazards-items/super-glue/ over the many sites that look like ChatGPT wrote them (mostly trying to sell some food safe alternative). It’s not food safe, so I wouldn’t glue e.g. a soup bowl with it, but eating an orange that sat on a cured seam in a fridge isn’t going to poison you.
This will work, in theory, and if you’re willing to use a lot of water. It’s probably a bad idea.
Heating one kilogram of water by one degree Celsius without phase transitions (freezing/melting, evaporating/condensing) takes 1 kilocalorie of energy. That’s roughly 4 kilojoules aka kilowattseconds, or 0.0012 kWh.
Thus, to get 1.2 kW of cooling, which is about half of what those tiny portable air conditioners promise, at a 10 degree temperature difference, you’d need 100 liters of water per hour. If water costs $0.40 per 100 liters, and electricity cost $0.40 per kWh, an air conditioner (using about 0.4 kW of electricity to pump 1.2 kW of heat) will be a lot cheaper, and that’s ignoring the power you might need to run the pumps and fan on your solution (all of which you get back as heat!)
Unless the water in the loop is below the dew point, you also won’t get any dehumidification. This is actually more important than cooling, and a big reason why air conditioned rooms feel so much better (sitting in the shade in 40° C dry weather would be unpleasant but fine, at 100% humidity, it would be reliably fatal regardless of fitness).
If you’re building new, look into:
In the end, you’re building a new building, so you now have a chance to do everything right using modern but already proven technology. I wouldn’t DIY anything critical and hard to change like this. Remember, you’re trying to find the best (likely: cheapest in the long term while meeting your reliability requirements) solution that will solve your problem. There’s a very high chance that’s simply “add more A/C and solar according to what’s locally available”. And that’s fine. There’s nothing bad about that.
I wouldn’t, for example, try to build with different materials than locally common, even if those were “better” by some metric. That often doesn’t give you a better house, that gives you a unique house, and unique can be a nightmare.
Absolutely not worth trying to fix a plug like that (instead of replacing the plug with a new plug) IMO. Where would you even start? You’d essentially be trying to make a new plug from scrap and at best creating something inaccurate that’d be unreliable and likely wear or outright damage anything it’s plugged into.
What glue did you use?
I made a similar repair but with a smaller break using superglue (cyanoacrylate), held perfectly. However, I reinforced the broken part with a piece of a plastic card glued to the side. Consider doing that if this doesn’t hold.
I’d be concerned that the rough surface you seem to have now will be hard to clean and may get very nasty. Other than that, if it works it works.
Can we not have clickbait titles on the Fediverse?
I see two three pin 3.5mm stereo plugs (one of them color coded for the headphones and one for the mic), and zero 4-pin combo plugs?
