Honestly this is the best advice. It doesn’t have the highest chance of success, but it’s the only path that could really result in healing and reconnection. Some people do dumb things when confronted with mortality or serious illness, especially if they’re young and inexperienced. If she could be honest and sincere it would demonstrate awareness and potentially growth.

What tragic news. I wish her the best. I wish our country didn’t make people beg for healthcare.

I just watched it last year, really solid show, I wish I’d seen it years ago.

So one gram of antimatter could power a modern city for like three months? That’s wild.

It’s for the internet. Nato’s alphabet is so English-focused, and it sounds so militaristic now. This is for the nerds and weirdos of the world.

Yeah, I really racked my brain on that one. There is a superhero named Xray, but it isn’t a satisfying option. Xavier is actually really good, I don’t know why I didn’t think of that, professor X, easy to remember.

This does not happen under every president, it’s super fucking weird.
Here’s a meeting under Biden for example: www.youtube.com/live/QDXZ2V9XoEU notice how they thank the tech people for being able to attend, then get into the topic, there isn’t a round of slobbering over the president.
Here’s a meeting that happened under Obama: youtu.be/RXvo8ChVieU once again Obama is the one thanking the attendees.
The current situation with trump is highly abberant and deeply unsettling, please do not sanewash it.

I write my papers in markdown. Simple to write, easy to paste into Discord or Lemmy, and you can use pandoc to instantly turn it into any format you like.

Yeah, I still feel like that year is when things really went off the rails in the US. I lost a lot of friends and family to the cult, and I’m starting to think they’re never coming back. A chasm has formed in America and it’s only getting wider.

I think it’s all made up. The most power hungry data center in the world consumes 150MW of power, and that’s from a massive 11 million square foot facility in China that’s significantly larger than any other data center.

People say this, but almost every time the time interval is left off it’s hours.
Either way, the numbers in this meme are clearly made up. Most image generation uses fewer than 10 watt hours.

So like the size of a horse?
The average horse is about half the height and weight of the average giraffe. Giraffes are just a really bad unit of measurement, males weight about 400kg more than females and there is a wide height difference over their global population, they are technically four different species we just all call giraffe 🦒

Yeah, banning it is wild. I could understand setting it to opt-in, like a lot of websites do for adult content, but removing it entirely is just backwards and hateful.
