I guess I could install Ventoy on the raspberry Pi’s SD card, but I prefer it to be bare, since the idea is to keep it simple.

If a hypothesis is untestable, then it is a guess, and not scientific.

Primary every democrat.

I saw it originally watching Simon Clark. Reviewing, it looks like the chart shown is actually a great example of a terrible graph; it uses 5 year periods then switches to 1 year periods without clear indication, making it look flatter than it would otherwise. If I adjust for this in a photo editor, emissions have barely slowed. I was misled, sorry for passing that on and thanks for questioning it.

Nazi salutes. He did it twice.

Some good news:

• emission rates have plateaued; we are still destroying the planet, but no longer accelerating the rate at which we do it
• Solar panels (unsubsidized) are the cheapest method of electricity generation as of 2022
• there is a fundamentally limited amount of fossil fuels, so as long as we don’t turn to Venus 2.0 by 2100 we will deplete most coal and oil and it will be possible for our ancestors to repair the planet over the following centuries.

Yeah I know even this “good news” is bleak, but it’s worth celebrating. There is some hope.

An infinitely growing blockchain will inevitably fail by centralizing. Crypto-currencies as they exist today are doomed, but the protocols and tech created now may hopefully inform the design of something that is useful as a currency.

Also, high transaction fees make it useless for small (normal, everyday) amounts, so it can only be used as a store of value. It’s really more analogous to gold or a stock, with the one significant benefit that it’s harder to steal than gold and can’t be lost stolen institutionally.

Yeah up until then I though he was a cool guy; real life iron man and whatnot. That baseless accusation was just so incredibly out of character it made me question his character, and then his later actions made me realize it was always just a character.

He’s levying tithes.

+1 on wildcard addresses. Any 10 min mail site is also great for anything unimportant.

Check out Technology Connections on YouTube. Specifically this playlist on heat pumps.

The only thing more efficient would be mechanized Solar shades and passive techniques.

Firefox WAS Netscape. Netscape was open sourced, rewritten, and released as Firebird (in reference to a phoenix’s rise from Netscape’s ashes). https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Mozilla_Application_Suite

Yay! Been waiting patiently.

I think the best course of action is to find an cut the antenna or it’s trace on the board (and verify). Sounds a lot easier than it is though.

edit: or also pull the modem fuse, if it has one

Also, horse is bigger/more visible to cars, and maybe could be in the street. So you may not have to wait on traffic crossings as much depending on the area.

I still choose e-bike because poo, but what a looney idea, I love it.

Nice, glad to help! And cool that you did Linguistics in school!

I’m not sure about the specifics, but the core I can agree with, that is: ‘people speaking the same language, but with vastly different backgrounds, will have difficulty communicating effectively.’

I’ll check out the documentary, and thanks for your reply.

I agree, my working conclusion for a while has been that I can’t compete with the phone and to focus on my wellbeing by reducing contact.

Have you learned anything useful on inoculation and deprogramming? I’ve been looking as well but haven’t found much.

Is it like you say, have a true set of idea anchors? But still what if it’s a false anchor?

Fun fact: decibels are exponential; A 180 db sound would be the loudest thing ever recorded (the krakatoa volcano was 172) and after 194 db it ceases to be sound and becomes a shockwave.
