You sure tapped into a particular frustration of mine :D

WoW has already done something similar in Warlords of Draenor, iirc, when you could make and develop your outpost, but wasn’t it considered to be mostly a failure because players were there and so common locations were more empty?

SSDs can reliably hold charge states for years, and there are storage media that are more reliable than HDD.

HDD’s would still find a niche, probably, as a balanced option, but said niche will likely get smaller and smaller over many years.

As pointed out already, acceleration here is massive, as collision takes split seconds.

A more useful formula is: F=m*∆V^2 /2, where F is the force, m is mass, ∆V is speed difference (essentially your entire speed if you’re gonna hit the wall, and that’s very likely).

Notice that speed in this formula is squared, so doubling the speed results in four times the impact.

22% higher speed leads to 50% higher impact.

41% higher speed doubles the impact energy.

Etc. etc.

Also, mass of your car, even though it’s not squared, impacts the result greatly. Twice as heavy car will exert twice the energy at the same speed.

Rape is rampant in Russian military and prisons.

Russia took a more original turn: as the key interest rate approached 20% APY, legislation was implemented to subsidize mortgage to people with kids (6% APY).

With rent prices soaring along (up to 75% in some places, about 40% on average year on year), housing market simply prices out everyone without kids, making living conditions way worse.

Sounds so wholesome :)

Seriously though.

Bought an old second-hand Brother printer a while ago and couldn’t be happier.

Model is like 10 years old, yet all spare parts and cartridges as well as just toner are readily available and the printer is perfectly fine (damn how precise laser printers are!).

They just make it happen.

Granted. Now everyone rolls back to Tobu - Candyland

China isn’t even Communist…

Do I?

Of course I am aware that moving industry abroad has the potential to reduce the amount of local jobs and taxes, while also shifting the trade balance between the countries.

But, as things stand, the only thing keeping many American industries afloat is protectionist policies, which gradually degrade industry’s ability to be price-competitive even further. This is not sustainable, and there should be other approaches - otherwise, the American economy is a slow bomb.

And for all that circus, a regular American has to pay. A lot. In some industries, this literally leads to goods being sold for twice or more of their actual worth.

For citizens, there are other factors at play. For example, Chinese companies stealing American technologies could lead to the former being able to produce something for cheap, which, if tariffs wouldn’t get involved, will allow an everyday person to have a better bargain.

Was enough to make a crack, so, now we all can play it without DRM anyway

that

Better?

I agree!

Do not advocate for anything, just adding a bit of clarification :)

Fixed!

Don’t hurt me

Male: with connector outside (like penis)

Female: with connector inside (like vagina)

Terms arose before trans people got so visible, so there’s that.

Nebula is cool and all, but at the end of the day, it’s still a commercial platform, and those do tend to enshittify and depend a lot on externalities.

As creators grow more dependent on Nebula, Sam and the team of original Nebula creators can wield more power and change the rules.

They already dictate the kind of content that is allowed - for example, Second Thought, one of the original creators behind Nebula, was asked to leave as he doesn’t agree to change public stance on Israeli-Palestinian conflict (he is pro-Palestine). This has suddenly left him without a source of revenue necessary for the production to expand, and has put him into debt.

Solution? Probably independent sponsorships that would go both on YouTube and PeerTube videos. Or a creator reward system like in Lbry/Odysee. Something that would allow to reward creators without going full commercial.

No, though brain physiology does respond to hormonal shifts.

This doesn’t invalidate trans folks. No one says they are physically completely equal to cis people. It just doesn’t matter.

I must assume this was said in bad faith, if so, stop.
