There’s really isn’t enough time to argue with everyone, and these people are probably used to being argued with, and might even take it as evidence of some big conspiracy. – If you want to make changes in the word, there are more productive ways then arguing on obscure forums.
Because all their friends stay. So to get them to switch, you’d need everyone thay know to switch, which would need everyone they know to switch…
… soon, you need to organize a switch between millions of people, which really isn’t happening.
So the only people on fedi are those ok with keeping multiple profiles, and even then just the ones that value the technical aspects over quantity of content: mostly tech nerds and people with strong feelings about politics.
Cold soda holds on to carbonation better. Try keeping it in the fridge before pouring. This also reduces how much the ice waters down your soda
Cartels have boats, but no one’s shipping drugs up to Canada just to smuggle them south: They just get shipped directly to the US
Trump is just making up an excuse to justify cutting off trade with Canada.
Really, the whole fentanyl thing seems like scaremongering: People do overdose on it, but you won’t die from touching it or inhaling trace quantity. It’s not even the most potent opioid known, not even close to it.
Save money and get to know your neighbors.
Trump probably won’t cause total collapse, so a basement full of beans is unlikely to be useful, but anyone relying on welfare or part of a minority group will need support. Savings will help with that, and could come in handy if you yourself get fired, either because of discrimination or economic recession.
Not at all. Eggs were never a significant experience to begin with.
Basically, chinese Instagram, that a lot of people are joining in protest to the incoming TikTok ban.
I don’t think tiktok is worse then any other large platform. All platforms have brain rot, all platforms have dumb challenges and all platforms do a lot of spying.
I’d hope this is just a freakout about someone else spying, but It feels like an excuse to start banning a whole bunch of stuff for flimsy reasons.
… and as for the spying itself, I would be far more worried about my local government getting that data then China. I don’t live anywhere near China, what are going to do? Sell me stuff? like google does?
Go talk to the mods, but perhaps consider not posting stuff like this:
… There’s an important distinction between someone with pedophilia and a child molester …
But, to be honest being banned from hexbear is probably a good thing. That place is a shithole.
It’s a transistor, for switching parts on or off. It’s either for a feature your not using, or in parallel with the other 3 for extra current capacity. In the second case it’s possible it breaks in the future, perhaps try checking if they get hot when it’s running.
That just pushes the heat production down the chain: Take a light: it converts electricity into electromagnetic waves. Those waves the get converted into heat when they hit things.
Perhaps feed the convincing fake data so they don’t realize they’ve been IP banned/used agent filtered.

He’s already shown he’s willing to interfere with and straight up ignore the results of an electron. He’s also willing to use the army as his personal goon squad, and has has support from the other branches. He’s also perfectly capable of spinning a narrative that the election was “stolen”
On the other hand, properly executing a coup is hard, and also old: It’s entirely possible he dies in office. (of natural causes or otherwise)
Not directly. That electricity is converted to heat when it’s used: All devices are space heaters, some just do other things as well. Even if not used, it would still be converted to heat by the panels. There’s no getting around the conservation of energy.
In theory, we could send that power out into space as microwaves or light, but in practice the effect would be negligible. The direct heat output of every human activity is nothing compared to the sun: All the electricity generated on earth is around 3 Terrawatts, while the sun hits us with 200 Pettawatts, 66 thousand times more.
On the other hand, burning fuels releases gasses like CO2, which can traps sunlight and creates thousands of times more heat than the actual amount of power generated. If we stopped burning fuel, it would stop the current massive increase in global temperature, which would then slowly be reversed by things like the carbonate-silicate cycle.
Try quoting the search term: site:example.com “2 days”
A lot of these use strong bases, like sodium hydroxide, that will dissolve fats and proteins but leave most metals and plastics unharmed. (except aluminum)
90% mass hysteria, 10% random people flying drones for fun.
Most videos I’ve seen are people misidentifying airplanes as drones, and even if they are drones… they sell those on Amazon.
There’s no way to check the whole thing, but you can totally pick a component and reverse engineer it, which is something people do quite a bit. When spying is found, it’s usually a private company doing it.
The NSA doesn’t care about your search history, but advertisers do. (and the government ever did, they’ll just call up google)
It’s never too early to do that thing you always wanted to do. Sure, you only get 5000 weeks at most, but that’s plenty if you make good use of them.
In the moment, yes.
However, the longevity of digital data is problematic. Computers have existed for less then a 100 years, but you’d already be hard pressed to read the data off a deck of punch cards or reel of magnetic tape.
Modern protocols and formats are much more complex, so I’d say that reading your data in 100 years will be harder then reading 100 year old data today. Have a look at a pdf in a text editor. Imagine trying to figure that out once the documentation is lost. (… or stored in the pdf)
Without continual efforts to convert data or preserve hardware and software, the data will be lost.
Compare that to written documents. We have writing that’s thousands of years old, and it’s still legible and understandable. We have paper documents about as old as we’ve been able to make the stuff.
