Your formula is a just a low-speed approximation of the actual formula for kinetic energy, and it is not accurate at relativistic speeds. In the actual relativistic formula, the amount of energy increases towards infinity as the mass approaches the speed of light.

The N64 controller had the shittiest everything Imaginable. GC wasn't much better, either, it was ergonomic for nobody. Wii was pretty bad too, you had to have an ergonomic condom for the wiimote, and the controller was too rounded. Since Famicom was kind of janky (though player 1 had a headphone jack) I'd say only NES and SNES were actually worth a crap. Neither one had any ergonomics, but neither did anyone else's controller until Genesis, Epyx aside.

Remember when Nintendo had the absolutely most durable controllers in existence, which you could legitimately use as a weapon?

I agree with all of that stuff, but there's also Biden going around congress to fund genocide, and Kamala saying she would be different from Biden but not saying she would stop the funding of the genocide. I can tell you that a whole lot of people were talking about that constantly, and stayed home because of it. That was fucking stupid, but we need votes from the stupid too.

They love using it to crush actual progressives.

For that kind of money you could DIY something excellent, without compromise. Listening to sensors and controlling relays is pretty trivial stuff, and there must be lots of free thermostat software out there. You could literally do it with an Arduino Nano but I wouldn't, I'd probably use a Pi with their fancy display, or at the very minimum the new esp32. At that point you could do it a lot cheaper, but I'd rather have something I can log in to.

If you were an economist you would more likely know that fortunes are built on connections, not educations.

There's no way to do that which doesn't harm the children, the only way to solve that problem is proactively by making better citizens. You do that for providing for their needs, including education. Do it enough and you make them able to support themselves most of the time, so you don't have to.

"Spending less time outdoors and not smoking tends to keep your skin more youthful looking."

Yeah, look how well it worked for RFK Jr.!

I can not have kids I can't support.

If they wanted me to have kids they wouldn't have fucked me over in a zillion ways, like for example funding genocide in Gaza instead of health care here. Oh yeah, and Israelis get national health on our dime, too.

Then they cry about replacement rates, what fuck faces.

You can tell this paper is shit because they don't define high income countries before making declarative statements about them. I have no doubt that the definition they used is in there somewhere, but A I'm on my phone right now which makes it hard to skim a research paper and B they would have explained up front of they weren't using a bullshit definition.

Who are they deliberately not counting?

"Sir, we need to know how fast the earth spins so we can aim our missiles."

Very well then. Carry on, ensign.

It's easy to fix the glass discarding problem anyway, just charge a real deposit.

I had a neighbor in Marysville have her kids put their trash in my recycling can. The trash company complained to me about it. They did it again the next week and it included some of their mail and kids' homework, nice proof. I told her to remove it and they dragged ass so I dumped it out in their yard, which was fun. Can the system detect when someone else's trash is in my recycling can?

Belkin APs are all trash.

Belkin cables are mediocre, and priced like they're premium.

Their name is shit, why would anyone buy Belkin anything?

We got a Cheeto Benito presidency specifically because of Democrats and Independents who enjoyed too many moments without politics.
