Lmfao sure dude, whatever you need to believe. We’ll save a seat for you over here in reality whenever you feel like joining the rest of us.

Lmfao, what law is being followed here? Come on.

They keep bringing up how small the protests were and how they “ran out of steam” or w/e. It really shows how little they actually know about the US.

It seems pretty clear that the negative implication is putin’s regime abusing his authority for sexual favors (especially given all the mass rapes by russian forces in ukraine…) and not that said favors are bad because theyre gay. It’s telling that they assumed it was based in homophobia, though.

Rules for thee…

IDF upped the death count to 4 according to CNN.

Haven’t been thrown out of enough ambulances.

… What??

Yes, though I think the point here is that solar spectacularly loses on MW/SF compared to a nuclear facility. Data centers consume an unbelieveable amount of power. Being able to locate them closer to population centers is a huge benefit to them operationally. Modern nuclear reactors are hugely expensive, but the proposal here is for small, limited scope facilities. Expensive, yes, but this is an excellent use case for them and would do wonders at piloting their broader acceptance / proven tech.

Are there flaws? Plenty. But at its core it’s not a bad idea.

Putting aside the jokes, this is a pretty good idea. Dedicated renewable energy sources for data centers have some real problems (expansion, power transmission, land use in areas ideal for data centers, peak loads for data centers out of synch with the consumer grid, blahblahblah etc). With nobody anticipating the demand for data services will suddenly stop growing exponentially, because that would be silly, this is a prudent step forwards. I think we can all agree that reducing the operating costs, reducing the strain on local power grids and furthering societal acceptance of modern small-scale nuclear power plants are all pretty valuable ideas.

(and for what its worth, Microsoft contracts with NIF - they’re already involved with the design of nuclear weapons, a thorium reactor (which would be DOE managed anyways) is a bit less concerning)

Samsungs hardware is pretty nice, but only when its running LineageOS or similar. Man their ux is awful.

But hey, according to the IDF they’re killing 69 Hamas leaders every day too, so it all balances out!

(fuck I’m so depressed)
