this was before we figured out that you can use stranded aluminum wire and it’s fine this way

that, or copper clad aluminum

only residential wiring uses copper, everything from 350kV down to 400V lines is aluminum, and even in houses aluminum can be used too

old power supplies used transformers, which when not loaded behave like inductors, and this causes reactive current to flow. not a problem for the last 15+ years because everything uses switching mode power supplies now

(never used discord)

rocket lab is 4x too big (that’s quarterly revenue, not annual)

now that i’m thinking: would be 4000 VMs enough for spacex? maybe it is some smaller organization. i also take it is state-owned or similar, which narrows it down to a handful of countries that launch satellites

and probably not government agency, because these would have people competent enough to do a git pull

wait, i missed that, but then idk why it got called “semi-governmental”

consider the following: they already don’t get money from them and also showing to wide audience that musk (and his people at spacex) idk who now is a inept penny-pinching scumbag can be a nice hobby

Maybe their idea is that publicly embarrassing oligarch boss of that company would be more effective in getting them to either use source code or buying a license

for more context, the boring liberal mayor got just north of 30%; the fuckass nobody pulled from depths of conservative party apparatus couple of months ago got just south of 30%; there’s 21% split between two far right fuckers, one conspiracy friendly, catholic extremist (6%) and one that pretends to not be (15%); 10% split between three socdems; 5% for former “got talent” host targeting the mythical swing voter; and 2% split between some random weirdos, 1.2% of which goes to a streamer

damn i see that chatbots don’t want to stay behind rfk jr in body count

will they learn that safety regulations are written in blood? who am i kidding, that’s not their blood

firefox at minimum clears the very low bar of not exposing casual user to crypto

These were not supposed to be breeders, but this is only due to agreements that are ignored ny now. Technical capability is there

This sounds like that material would be more useful in high performance radars, not as flash memory

time travel (backwards) would break physics as we know it, what are you talking about lol

These are fast reactors and operate on different principles. The coolant there is sodium and while hard to design and run, it’s doable. French had similar reactor but only one and it was shut down. Nice thing about fast reactors is that these can burn even-numbered isotopes of plutonium, useless in water moderated reactor, and give fresh mostly 239Pu plutonium of good quality. weapons grade even, and IAEA doesn’t like it. But who cares since nonproliferation is dead anyway?

SMRs too
