After seeing the one where they slam Dan’s face with a ball and you see his skull moving under his skin I realized there can be entire fields of study around insanely fast cameras. What we see in real time doesn’t even compare. Also the one where Gav shows how CRTs work is still my favorite.

Search history? nah, who cares.
Calculator history? plz don’t look, i promise i’m good at math.

I think the idea is to filter it out (which is also not easy) but then this gives you a way to destroy the concentrated pfas left behind. Because otherwise what are you supposed to do with the material you have filtered out? It’d be cool if regulations required the cost of destroying pfas be added to the sale of pfas which might help manufacturers decide that they don’t need to add pfas to disposable things like paper plates after all.

Not OP. Only using the cited article, it says the NPP will last 40-80 years and maintenance will be expensive after 40 years but gives no figures, then says solar would last 50 years and be cheaper to maintain but again gives no figures. These statements may be true but without figures this is nothing more than an oversimplified opinion piece. We’re not going to have a productive discussion with opinion pieces.

i can’t believe they could fit that many donuts in a person.

I was trying to book a trip through a travel website, after the 3rd tedious captcha I ended up using another site. I get it, the bot vs captcha war is getting crazy but if your website is unusable then i’m not going to use it.

New EV supercars are using similar axial flux motors. I was hoping someone would come up with this because spinning the axles directly with wheel mounted motors seems like a much easier retrofit than replacing the engine and gear box. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ICTi2Z_X5Kw

damnit, now I have virtually no chance of becoming a senator, thanks a lot.

Was already going to cancel when my renewal was up, now i’ll cancel even harder.

there are free online lectures out there like MIT open courseware, i’ve rewatched some classes that i got fuzzy on. Also specific concepts may be better explained on youtube by like organic chemistry tutor or 3 blue 1 brown.

I have not paid to retake a class though.

now i will ask you questions.

If you can get an emulator on your phone you can play old games. Nealy endless hours of fun to be had. I recommend lemuroid and Legend of Zelda A Link to the Past.

I find it a bit ironic that the thing that made it easier to ditch windows completely was o365 web apps, they’re actually decent if you have to use them. Thanks microsoft.

I think the just use linux voices are getting louder because every day more things just work out of the box, it may not quite be there for everyone yet but it’s getting better every day.

yeah, it’s frustrating when they’re smug about it but I’d argue that suggesting an alternative where this issue doesn’t happen is helpful advice even if you don’t agree with it. I do agree that ‘just switch to linux’ is a gross oversimplification as there will be some growing pains and there are a few hurdles that may at present be unsurmountable. I also find it amusing that you present digging up registry hacks and fighting for control over your system for the rest of time to be easier than a modern linux installer that takes about 5 minutes to click through the gui with no command line knowledge needed. I guess the point is that you should use whatever you’re comfortable with, but if you haven’t tried linux in a while you might find it to be less of a fight than windows is becoming.

Yep, I think you can donate plasma more often as well. Oneblood will give you giftcards and swag for whole blood, not nearly as good a payout as plasma but it’s also like 15 minutes where my experience with plasma was a couple hours, they did set me up with netflix during the process so I think it’s worth the extra bit of time.

PFAS is everywhere at this point. Unfortunately they’re reeeeeally good at what they’re designed for and they’re cheap. We’ll need viable alternatives so they can be phased out. I think they should be banned from products that don’t really need them like dental floss and hopefully we come up with an enzyme or something that can cheaply break it down in the environment.

Side note, there has been at least one study that shows that donating blood regularly can reduce the amount of PFAS in your blood. This doesn’t solve the problem of the stuff being everywhere but it’s good to know you can remove it from your body over time.

You can get paid way more for plasma, the places where I live take hours though so it may not be worth it. I just donate whole blood and Oneblood gives me gift cards and swag, the double walled water bottles last time were surprisingly good quality, and probably lined with pfas.

Many places will give you gift cards, donating plasma also has the effect of reducing pfas in your blood (allegedly) and you get real money.

Not to downplay that this is terrible but you should know there have been studdies that show you can reduce the amount of forever chemicals in your blood by donating blood regularly, among other health benefits like getting paid for it.

Yeah, i remember it being pretty bad and fighting with my boss at the time because they were all in with lenovo. Even after I showed them the articles about the malware they wanted us to push out lenovo’s bloat on all machines (like the stupid battery monitor) because they liked how it looked better. I got a new job shortly after.
