Her thesis supervisor had argued against her findings at first, she built the detector and found the signal, and she was disbelieved. She had to fight to get her supervisor to even acknowledge that she had found something worth looking at. And the shameless fucking cunt went ahead and accepted the Nobel Prize for it.
On paper, I guess so? In reality, and as is the case with pretty much every developed democracy, money and technology make a mockery of the whole idea. A society in which billionaires can buy their way into the Whitehouse - literally - is no democracy.
If you want to compress video files, you’ll need to reencode them. Maybe using something like HEVC (High Efficiency Video Codec). But for 80GB of videos, you’ll be there for a while and probably won’t shrink them enough to be worth it. It would likely take less time to simply re-download the files later, even with a mediocre internet connection. In practical terms, you won’t get that 80GB to be any smaller.
ISOs don’t compress anything, as far as I know, or at least not by default. I think they’re basically just a container.
To reencode your videos, you can use the free HandBrake.
Most American headline ever.
Now a psychopathic murderer/dismemberer is gonna be someone’s next-door neighbour… how in god’s name do you fuck up a case THAT badly? Like, they won’t even retry her because of this, so she just walks. Unreal.
Bro the human brain never fails to fascinate and terrify me in equal measure. We’re so fucking weird.
I got caught in a scam last year, but luckily I realised what was happening before any damage could be done. But during the scam, the guy (who was pretending to be my bank) heard me tell him how much was in my account. It was like £100, give or take. No savings, no other accounts. He knew I was on disability benefits. He had this info at the beginning of the conversation, and he was talking to me for 45 minutes before he gave up. For £100. I wanted so badly to say to him “you saw that I had 100 quid to my name, and you still tried to steal it from me?” 😆 These people have gotta be sociopaths.
1-in-10 has been the stat for decades.
Loneliness.
Would be cool if the official Wikipedia mobile app integrated this functionality! It does have a ‘random articles’ card, but it’s nothing like this.
Not sure ‘addiction’ is being defeated here, though 😆 Like if I’m addicted to sausages, giving me bacon instead isn’t really solving the root of the issue. The issue being those sexy, sexy pigs.
Organising to do what exactly? A majority of the US population wants this nightmare. The Trump administration is expected to destroy norms and institutions to bring about their bigot’s utopia, they ran on that promise.
It’s really that dire. It’s beyond the reach of the checks and balances that have kept things somewhat on-track up until just after 9/11. Checks and balances are precisely what the voters want to delete from the courts.
If Trump wants a 3rd term, he will get it, and his voters will not be moved by marches or sit-ins or AOC exquisitely calling out the scum and villainy from the floor of the senate. Either talk Luigification, or let the people post their fucking memes in peace.
raised anger and criticism in several Muslim nations
I don’t think there are many non-Muslims who were onboard with this stupid shit either, to be fair. Besides the spittle-flecked gammon who were already bigots to begin with, of course.
The only Quran burning I’d support would be if Elon Musk did it as part of his whole white identitarian shtick. I’d send ISIS the airfare myself.
We can expect these people to carry out violent assaults now, with the understanding that their violence is tolerated by the fucking president of the country. This is going to get horrific.
Not that I would ever condone or encourage such abhorrent and inexcusable behaviour, but it would seem like if anyone in US politics is begging for a bullet, it’s Musk. Even more so than Trump or his cabinet of monstrosities. Musk is uniquely poised to catch a round in the dome. And it will probably be a MAGA lunatic that does it.
For what it’s worth, that woman absolutely did NOT murder her husband. Fuck Netflix “documentarians”.
It will be riddled with monetisation, with the attendant mission/quest structure to support that goal. Like, it’s an impossibility that it won’t be. Starfield was on the verge of getting some good will back from the player base, but squandered it on that bullshit pay-per-quest DLC they released recently. Bethesda is beyond help at this point.
I literally saved this image mere seconds before seeing this thread 🤣
Got it from here:
I’m sure this totally unprecedented plan is nothing to worry about. It’s not as though history is replete with similar plans that went awry.
I’m sure that, once concentrated into this one location, the people being deported will be safe and sound and free of disease and well-fed. And when no country agrees to take them in, I’m sure they’ll just continue to be well-cared for in the encampment and there won’t be any problem and certainly there won’t be any spurious stories of riots or uprisings that need to be put down and which sadly result in the killing of pretty much all of the immigrants being held there. It will be fine. This is all fine and very, very normal.
Preserving good old games!
Asterisk: Unless the CCP don’t like it, in which case it can go fuck itself.
I wonder why they still haven’t come forward, given that there would be no legal consequences for doing so in 2025.
