“If you swallowed or inhaled this battery you’d be exposed to significant amounts of radiation.”
It’s beta radiation, which can be stopped by a layer of tin foil, I think. So yeah if you ate the source itself that would be bad, but if you eat the battery with the casing, probably much less bad?
Spoken like someone who never trapped a sim in a room and burned them alive
Exactly this! Just let me pay the higher price! Trying to gift to an Australian friend was always an exercise in frustration. I don’t care if it’s more expensive just let me DO IT
Headline sounds like FOSS bro cope. They’re talking about letting users choose to have a robots.txt denying AI dataset scrapers lol.
Not like other sites do a good job of preventing it anyway. robots.txt is not worth the metaphorical paper it’s written on.
Well there’s another solution. It also doesn’t involve genocide, funny enough.
The auto industry takes up a huge segment of our economy, rivalled only by resource extraction. We’re trying to transition to the EV industry, and removing tariffs on EVs would essentially be a death blow to our auto industry, as ICE cars are phased out over the coming decades. So it’s not just about protecting American companies, because American companies manufacture here.
Sanctify Israel, arrest the Jewish people. That’s apparently their play.
I think we sell power mostly to alleviate excess supply during low demand periods since most of our generation is relatively stable. Another way to alleviate excess supply in low demand periods, if you can’t sell it to your neighbours, is to shift demand from peak periods by… making peak more expensive.
And a third way is to make the cost of electricity during low demand periods negative, to incentivize excess electricity use (and enterprising individuals with storage capacity to charge up so it can be discharged during peak).
To half the users in this thread, normal people use computers as a means to an end.
“If you’re not prepared to get your hands dirty this OS is not for you” you’ve already lost me, this is unhinged behaviour. You have one life and you choose to spend it fixing your computer so it will do the same things except slightly differently.
But I know this is an unpopular opinion for Linux users.
And not just “a beach on the ocean”, but literally just the open ocean.
Third option, stop antagonizing them at the behest of the Americans.
Good ol’ Germany getting back to its roots
I have 3000 mbps. I literally don’t have a way to verify that they’re delivering those speeds, since I’m limited by the speed of my computers’ motherboard Ethernet ports.
$44/mo
The claim going around is that it uses 50x less energy
So they should arrest Israelis on sight too right?
The US and (some of) its vassal states also happen to be more or less the only majority English speaking countries in the world, and so get to set the meaning of “America” (singular) when used in English.
With that said, the translation reads “the Americas” (plural) which unambiguously refers to the two continents.
Yeah this reads like self soothing. Looking in the mirror in the morning “I am a big boy!”
The crossover point is 30 km/h. At typical road speeds - not just highway speeds - tire noise dominates.
Love how when someone has issues with Linux but not Windows somehow it’s pebkac. Classic annoying Linux user response.
