They use evaporation towers. You "consume" water in liquid form and produce water in gas form (humidity).

So the water molecules are not destroyed, but the water does not return to the water source, it dissipates into the air.

My kids are not in the public school system because here, a 6yo kid here gets an ipad or chromebook, and does a huge chunk of their school work through apps. I just dont believe that is a good way to learn. Has nothing to do with race, gender or left/right politics.

At least in our areas, while there is no money for teachers (no raises, big classes etc), the schools spend enormous amounts of money on new stadiums. As long as the tax money goes to funding sports, I will do whatever I can to underfund them.

Always the oddball trying to blame different budgets and crap, but it comes from the same pocket in the end.

They are not "developing something", they are releasing something. As someone running 25.05 on a machine right now, i am being prompted repeatedly by the system to go install 25.10 with these tools live.

full boar?

They don't want to violate the rights of the original hamstersite - https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Frealhamster.com%2F

(and yes, it is sort of a parody site of another website selling "real dolls")

Not to "Twitter", but to X and xAI more specifically. I is an umbrella brand that Musk has used for a lot of things over the years (paypal etc).

No, of course they invested $600M in a new plant without thinking about hail.

Jokes and sarcasm aside, panels today are very strong. And you can make them tilt over to deflect big hail when you know it is coming.

Along with Tata, Infosys and all the other Indian outsourcing companies. I am so happy to have moved to my current company that doesn't use outsourcing. It's glorious.

Can't you just open a new private browser window and go at it again? How have they blocked you?

The original article give the answer:

Keep in mind "faults per 100 vehicles" is perhaps an indicator of the same car models YoY, but not a great way to compare. My first car was a tiny Toyota Aygo with basically zero features and thus very little that can go wrong. While my Toyota Land cruiser had more issues, it was still a much higher quality car overall. Just as an example.

And it is very easy (at least with an iphone) to swap battery when it is worn out after two years or more. Make an appointment, walk into the store, come back 1-2h later and pay $60.

And it is trivial to buy a phone unlocked in the US. This is a non-issue.

Along with egregious monthly maintenance fees.

It is pointless for your daily energy consumption. But it is very useful that one day of the year when an ice storm takes out the grid and you are stuck sheltering in the home for 24h waiting for power and everything to get back to normal as well. Here is Texas outages usually come together with stay-at-home directives for many workers, anyway. So it does not apply to everyone, but it could help lots of people those rare cases. And that in turn hello first responders.
