It’s not necessarily projection, it can just be two shitty people accurately describing each other

Then fire him and hire someone with a plan to match.

This isn’t an explanation, it’s a thought terminating phrase. Youre just othering people as psychopaths/monsters/inhuman.

I won’t.

He was a predictable product of the American culture / political system. His death doesn’t fix anything that caused him to rise.

I mean, to be fair, electrical engineering is one of the most notoriously difficult to grasp disciplines.

People don’t generally have a great intuitive sense for how pulsed electromagnet waves propagate through 3d space and time.

I’ve used the advanced systems analysis math I learned in university as an actual calculation in my job precisely zero times.

I roughly think about how those models apply to situations and how that will effect the various likely outcomes and behaviours etc on a literal daily basis.

University isnt just about training you to do a job.

If you’re talking about the chicken and egg problem in the abstract, i.e. how do you determine “what caused what” in a system that feeds back into itself… the answer is that in feedback systems, determining blame or ascribing one or the other as the cause is simply meaningless, and you need to examine how the system behaves as a whole, and how the different parts contribute to the output of the system in various configurations.

LA is also just a car culture city. When you’re poor in LA, you drive a shitty car, when you get rich in LA, you drive a fancy car.

When you’re poor in New York, you get driven around by public transit. When you’re rich in New York, you get driven around by a car service.

It’s obviously not so black and white, but the percentage of rich people driving sports cars in LA vs rich people getting driven in luxury cars in NY, is probably similar to the percentage of poor people driving in LA vs poor people taking transit in New York.

Fuck the US. Let it wallow and die. Talking more closely is just more likely to get its shit on you as it goes.

Nope. You can literally just send them the exact fields needed for processing a transaction.

The dev of Lemmy is an asshole, full stop. He’s also incredibly pro Russian and pro Chinese, but first and foremost, he’s an intolerable asshole.

You’ll get banned from his Lemmy instance if you dare to suggest that Russia or China issue propaganda.

And he is a large part of the reason why all the “tankie”, i.e. pro-communist Lemmy instances, have cultures of such obnoxious anti-intellectualism.

That doesn’t actually sound like they intend on producing usable helium though. That sounds like they intend on doing a really difficult and expensive fusion reaction to produce helium 3, which they will then use in a cheaper and easier to do fusion reaction, and the end result of all of that should be electricity and no net new helium since it’s expensive and rare AF and they need it all to make the whole process remotely plausibly profitable.

Can I remind everyone that it is impossible to produce helium in a practical way?

It is literally only produced through a fusion reaction, and that happens in stars and in incredibly tiny quantities in fusion reactors.

Whenever it’s released, it basically just floats away into space and is lost forever.

Their assessment of the charter of rights and freedoms is nonsense.

We have one of the stronger constitutions in the world, one that actually provides positive rights for it’s citizens, not just negative ones

I.e. American rights are all framed as the government not doing something to you, Canadian rights also include ones that force the government to do things for you, like provide health care and clean drinking water. It doesn’t mean the government always does, but our courts are far better at holding our governments to account for functioning the way that normal people expect them to.

The notwithstanding clause is problematic, but it is not the death knell that post is making it out to be.

Microsoft’s been pretty open about using Linux for at least the past decade or so.

They kept building it into Windows which eventually resulted in WSL, largely because they use Linux servers but Windows workstations.

It was about 5 years ago that they publicly released Common Base Linux Mariner (now called Azure Linux).

Given Ubiquiti’s Russian connections, and TP Link’s Chinese connections, this honestly isn’t surprising.

Good. Get off the internet and do anything else.x

Literally every Samsung Android phone has come with their Dex desktop for like 10 years too.

I fucking hate Google at this point. They’re just an even shittier version of apple now. Locking down their shit for no reason, and claiming decades old innovations are actually new and theirs.

Let’s be clear, for a feature that Samsung phones have had for a decade at this point.

Like, so much insanely cleaner than your food.

Sewers are the giant pipes with all that air at the top.

Your water pipes are filled almost the entire time, and the trunks are literally constantly flowing. There’s little to no air for anything to grow with, and at the very beginning there’s almost no bacteria since it’s treated water being pumped in. All on top of the that copper is a natural sterilizer.
