There is existing, and there is being effective for the advertised job. Carbon capture certainly exists in different forms and makes sense as an addon to an existing emitter. It’s hyped to be a lot more than what it does, even used to excuse more emissions growth, and that’s the snake oil being talked about. In the end the only true “solution” is to reduce the actual production of emissions, something that the overall world is not will to do. And I put solution in quotes because we’re decades behind on action that would be meaningful, having exponentially increased the pollution since then. We’d have to do far more than just stop emissions to fix anything.

It wasn’t clear if this drug would promote new “buds” to develop and then grow, or if it relies on existing dormant buds to have an effect.

“And Brian doesn’t mind if he doesn’t make the scene.
He’s got a daytime job, he’s doing all right.”

I read that as “they voice their opinions too much”.

French users: “After the patch I can’t seem to keep as strong a signal as before.”

Apple: “…”

A medium is as good as the content within. I wouldn’t throw everything out to try and sanitize the internet. Better to show why some data is worse than others, and how to validate that data. Start with not trusting the first thing you find, and dig deeper. That requires some time and effort, unfortunately, but there’s no easy answer to filtering facts and fiction.

in any form

Is viewing and copying/pasting a manual form? I know the implied meaning is automation but as a legal document it should probably specify that. Unless the plan is to drive more people away, which does seem to be a trend.

The only thing that helps this headline stand out from so many “uh no, shutdown” headlines of the past is the included impeachment part. The shutdown will be used to its fullest drama potential just like before until the very end with some compromise, and the impeachment as well.

Is this impeachment about Hunter Biden, or have they moved on from that nonsense? Oh, it’s about Joe Biden. Well, let’s see what evidence you have to work with and…oh, you don’t have any yet? That’s kind of necessary, guys.

For what it’s worth, I’ve heard that there’s a major update coming this month sometime for Kbin, first in a while, so it might get a lot better (with the expected new bugs to chase). On desktop it’s been mostly okay with the occasional glitches, but the real question that is hard to measure is how much is getting in and out from the fediverse properly. Hard to have a baseline when all the software is beta at best.

The reason cited for nuclear propulsion enabling us to get to places like Mars faster is wrong. It’s not the amount of thrust, but the ability to use constant thrust longer (because we can fuel longer burns). It’s why the plot device of the Epstein drive in The Expanse opened up the whole solar system - they can do a burn for days and use up very little fuel. We’re nowhere near that, but nuclear would be far better than conventional rockets that have very limited burn time plus have heavy fuel to carry with them.

Musk is the kid in the video that moves all the people to just one of the tracks, gets praised by everyone for thinking outside the box, and then proceeds to run the trolley down that track.

I didn’t see mention of what allowable ceiling of flight this is for, still below 400 feet? I would expect there will be regular flight paths established to specific urgent delivery customers (like hospitals) rather than just any package.

Most people will read the first part of the highlighted subtitle and move on to the next social media thing thinking, see, it’s pretty much over now. It’s never going to be over, it’s just not quite as bad as it was when we didn’t have anything to fight back with. “Still more dangerous than the flu” should be highlighted as well, and while it’s not a huge percentage people do die from the flu, and the actual flu (not the cold that people think is the flu) is nasty to get even if you aren’t at risk of dying.

We continue to do everything either wrong, or barely minimum to say we’re doing anything. Any wonder why so many are sick with persistent symptoms? (but have to get back to spreading it more work anyway because America and The Economy)

No list of movies is complete without someone mentioning it.

I had briefly forgotten the name of the zombie. Does anyone greeting him always open with, “dude, you okay?”

If it was a single action on a single company then I might agree. Elon’s done some stuff, Twitter being only the latest, that shows a trend of…well maybe not stupidity, but it does seem to be flailing around of a rich person without a clue. He seems more of a wealthy tool than one of the higher ups making the plan.

The answer so far has been there isn’t a link like Lemmy has to see this. Good news though, there’s a pull to add such a feature.

So just keep the existing tests and change the passing ones to not get access. Checkmate robots.

Just kidding, I welcome our robot overlords…I’ll act as your captcha gateway.

Lemmy Explorer can help give a big picture view of what’s out there, both in instances and in communities. Kbin instances are also viewable, you have to select them from the top right menu.

The big reason for being a target is the size. Why attack smaller ones with less effect? Like making a virus for anything besides Windows. But maybe the long term benefit is the movement of some to other instances, balancing out the loads.
