Engineers: So we had all this complicated theory, but no one can calculate that stuff by himself. Here’s a linear formula and 50 pages of tables where you just look up the values for the factors given certain conditions.

You say people should just give up their weapons. I used to be strictly against private weapon ownership too. Over the years, especially the last few years i see more and more of a necessity for people to be able to fight back against an overreaching government, as we have seen more and more authoritarian developments all across the “Western” nations.
This is what Marx referred to.
There is a political case for private weapon ownership. The obvious counter-argument is that people like MAGA also have weapons then and can use them. As we have seen with previous and current dictatorships, when push comes to shove the regime will quickly supply its paramilitary wings with guns, so i don’t see the benefit of preventing normal people from owning weapons in such a situation.
None of this is a judgement on the green-text, as we lack the whole picture, on whether taking the weapons from anon was justified or not. However the default assertion that people should just give up their weapons is not as obvious as you make it out to be.

Some people have bad radars about how dangerous the people they get in bed with are.
Some people self-sabotage by getting with toxic partners in the same pattern over and over again because they have unaddressed psychological issues.

Obviously someone in the BBC was salty that he didn’t get to write the article on Ozzies death, so he quickly edited it in the Wikipedia so he could claim the “first” bragging rights.

The instances usually provide a contact to reach out to the admins directly in the sidebar. You always have the server sidebar below the community sidebar.
For lemmy world it is a bit confusing because they link to their rules explanation first. This community !support@lemmy.world has some infos in the sidebar

A lot of the medical and psychological problems are caused by the “fixing” of other things.
- Comment on When will we have reached enough productivity? 1 day ago:
If the environmental damage was accurately priced in, it would be much more attractive to produce locally with local materials and with local knowledge.
It would be less “efficient” in the sense of what a production facility could do in terms of output/input at the gates of the facility, but it would be much more efficient in terms of the overall economy.
- Comment on Anon has learned enough 1 day ago:
There was two times, he used proper curses:
In book 5 he tries to use Crucio to torture Beatrix Lestrange, but she shows him and tortures him instead, as a little boy doesnt know how to torture.
In book 6 he used Sectumsempra on Malfoy without knowing what it is and seemingly completely oblivious to the fact that most spells are just latin word. Subsequently Malfoy almost dies of bloodloss, everyone is chocked how Harry is using dark arts all of a sudden, but Dumbledore bails him out as always. - Comment on sharks are older than polaris 3 days ago:

12 megatons of dry carbon
en.wikipedia.org/…/Composition_of_the_human_body
Carbon is supposed to make up about 18.5% of the mass of a human body. So 60 megatons divided by 18.5% is 324 megatons.

Yeah, this is absurd. Also if someone makes a “ghost gun” they can easily destroy the printer before using that thing.
- Comment on Can you have an infinitely long wavelength of light? Or is there some maximum? 1 week ago:
Light, visible light, or visible radiation is electromagnetic radiation that can be perceived by the human eye.[1] Visible light spans the visible spectrum and is usually defined as having wavelengths in the range of 400–700 nanometres (nm), corresponding to frequencies of 750–420 terahertz. The visible band sits adjacent to the infrared (with longer wavelengths and lower frequencies) and the ultraviolet (with shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies), called collectively optical radiation.[2][3]
In physics, the term “light” may refer more broadly to electromagnetic radiation of any wavelength, whether visible or not.[4][5] In this sense, gamma rays, X-rays, microwaves and radio waves are also light. The primary properties of light are intensity, propagation direction, frequency or wavelength spectrum, and polarization. Its speed in vacuum, 299792458 m/s, is one of the fundamental constants of nature.
I didn’t know that some physicists choose such confusing terminology. Electromagnetic radiation is the more clear term and i have learned it as such in school, e.g. light being a part of the electromagnetic spectrum and generally speaking of electromagnetic radiation rather than light.
- Comment on Can you have an infinitely long wavelength of light? Or is there some maximum? 1 week ago:
I think your terminology is a bit mixed up. Light is a subset of the electromagnetic spectrum that we can see, plus infrared and UV often also being referred to as “light”.
As for the properties, they don’t fundamentally differ across the spectrum. The longer the wavelength, the less energy and the shorter the wavelength, the more energy.
As for the shortest theoretically possible wavelength, we are probably in the area of a Planck length
The Planck length is about 10^-20^ times the diameter of a proton.

It is all relevant to the notion of “Dark Ages” as an explainer for the development of humanity at the time, when in fact this is just Western ignorance to the rest of the world, as has been discussed in the subsequent comment chain. It is the same ideology that ignores all the human achievements outside of Europe at that time, that then goes to rob cultural and historical heritage of the people that had been more advanced at that time and declare these non white people as barbarians.
These aspects are fundamentally linked together in a larger racist imperial ideology and it is important to understand and challenge that ideology to challenge its revision of history. Anyways, i’ll be doing some al-jabr mathematics now.
- Comment on stock market 2 weeks ago:
If you’re serious about investing, it’s worth asking the question “Is Intel in a position to compete with TMSC?” rather than just dumping all your money into an index.
Unless you work in this sector and have detailed knowledge, youd be delusional to believe to be able to answer that question better than “the market” in general.
Also i’d say Palantir isnt as much of a secret tip but rather capitalizing on wanting to live under Fascism. If you dont want to live unser Fascism you should wish for Palantir to burn to the ground. This directly contradicts pumping money into them.

Your rant about museums is completely unrelated to that particular subject as well.
Sure, let’s ask the Greek what they think about the parts of the Acropolis that are stashed away in London. They will surely find it unrelated.
- Comment on we are creators 2 weeks ago:
To add to it. A lot of the European antique that the West loves to pride itself in, such as the work of Roman and Greek philosophers and scientists were only preserved by the Muslims in the Middle East and subsequently rediscovered from Arabic and Persian works. So a lot of European culture and history was preserved by outsiders as the white barbarians couldn’t hack it. Unlike the imperial museums in the UK, France, Germany or other countries, that preservation was achieved largely without pillaging.

- Comment on Video Games Europe release a statement on Stop Killing Games 2 weeks ago:
We appreciate the passion of our community; however, the decision to discontinue online services is multi-faceted, never taken lightly and must be an option for companies when an online experience is no longer commercially viable. We understand that it can be disappointing for players but, when it does happen, the industry ensures that players are given fair notice of the prospective changes in compliance with local consumer protection laws.
Private servers are not always a viable alternative option for players as the protections we put in place to secure players’ data, remove illegal content, and combat unsafe community content would not exist and would leave rights holders liable. In addition, many titles are designed from the ground-up to be online-only; in effect, these proposals would curtail developer choice by making these video games prohibitively expensive to create.
We welcome the opportunity to discuss our position with policy makers and those who have led the European Citizens Initiative in the coming months.
If they don’t want to be held legally responsible, why don’t they just release the source code at the end of their commercial endeavors?

What do you mean by “stable”? DC just means it has a direction. Flow and Voltage can be changing. For example Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) is often used to control DC devices by rapidly providing and cutting electricity from them. Still the current just has one direction.
