Chernobyl also had no containment structure, so an accident with that reactor design will result in a release (unlike TMI or any other western design reactor).

If its not showing pictures of nazis that are diverse, I dont want it.

The average person cant afford $156K for a car. Even upper middle class people cant afford that. Enjoy your luxury car and being absolutely out of touch.

I find myself going days between checking /. these days. This is absolutely why.

No more news for nerds, not even the pretense of editing. Just absolute garbage slapped into the feed, hoping for clicks.

Why?

Why would you want to pay more for the same TV?

Just get the smart TV and use it like a dumb screen. I've been doing that for a decade now. Works great! My TVs never are allowed to connect to the internet, all they ever see is an HDMI cable.

You get 2 major advantages in doing this: 1) You save $100. 2) You hurt the shitheads selling smart TVs because they sell them at cost and expect to make their money with their spyware.

Take your meds, my friend.

In the real world, no company is shipping a TV that hacks wifi networks.

Bloomberg... pay to read! :D

I seem to recall Amazon offering various AWS training for free years ago after making major announcements for the cloud platform. Now with the announcement of their new LLM Odyssey... this lines up pretty well IMO. I passed it around at work and will try to find the time to take it.

We recently went out with a friend group, and one of them came in 25 minutes late. When they went to order, one of the things we had ordered was not on the menu.

Why? They ran out, and their system immediately pulled it from the online menu. We were all very confused at first, but checked with the waitress and she confirmed they were out of the special.

If more places can do this sort of tight integration, that's a net positive in my book. No more waiters having to apologize for them being out of something, no more chalkboard with the daily specials, with two crossed out, etc. There's a real use-case for being able to deliver to customers real-time information about your available products and services.

A few of our bars around here are tied into the Digital Pour app. That shows not only what's on tap, but a full description of the contents of the keg, ABV, IBU for beers. price, pour size and options, and the amount remaining in the keg. And they do beer, wine, ciders, premixed drinks, and NA offerings.That's just incredible to me. It's searchable. It's got a map. If you're looking for something specific, there's nothing like it to help you find your drink.

Now, there are a thousand ways to do QR code menus and apps wrong, as noted in this whole discussion. But there are some very cool things that can be done regarding pricing and availability that paper menus just can't do.

I didn't agree to any terms of service.

I don't have an account there. How could terms of service apply to something you freely expose to the web?

You don't get it both ways. Either it's behind a login and there are terms that users have to agree to to get an account, or you're making it freely available on the web. There isn't a middle ground.

A LITERAL pipe dream. A million miles of pipes dream.

To move to hydrogen, we have to replicate our ENTIRE gasoline production, transportation, and distribution network. Other than the ground that it all rests on, not a single part of the gasoline network can handle hydrogen as-is. Not the tanks, pipes, pumps, seals, gauges, engines, any of it!

When people propose hydrogen, I just don't understand what they're thinking. There is nowhere near enough financial incentive to replicate the entire fuel production and distribution system in the US or any other country.

The future is EV. You can get electricity just about anywhere. No trillion dollar investment needed.

The better idea is called an "electric vehicle". No pollution emitted as you drive it around, and electricity is available just about everywhere, unlike ammonia. In fact, electricity is even available off the grid!

Thank god you have that sig, or I would have thought you were a fucking idiot. Well played!

Best one I ever saw was the very bright kid who was the son of two lawyers. Half-way through sophomore year he goes from straight As to Cs. Parents lose their shit, want the teachers investigated, want the school to fix the problem, threaten administrators, etc. "What are you doing to our child!!!"

The band teacher opens his instrument locker and a bag of weed falls out. Mandatory 1 week suspension, drug counseling, and a possible expulsion for that. So his responsible parents threaten to sue the school out of existence, because they couldn't prove it was their kid's weed. Anyone could have put it in his locker! And their kid doesn't have a fuckton of disposable income and zero fear of consequences, so he can't be smoking weed!

Week after the school backs down from any sort of punishment they buy him a red convertible mustang for his 16th birthday.

And we wonder sometimes why there are absolutely raging assholes in the world with zero regard for anyone around them.
