“What happens if the sun isn’t shining while you’re up in the air?”
A quote from Donald J. Trump.
Did you just disregard the article based on only the headline?
If done wrong, you could break your monitor.
You mean your graphic drivers, right? not your actual hardware?
(edit: oh no)
It's like he takes fragments of memories and tries to make it a policy suggestion.
Bombing hurricanes was a theory in the atomic age and became an urban legend.
During a COVID briefing, he read a poster about how to disinfect surfaces and thought they would make suitable treatments.
With the electric aircraft thing he probably saw a tweet about NASA's Pathfinder and made a ton of assumptions about electric aircraft.
It's an incredibly stupid way to operate as someone who wants to lead the creation of policy.
Just think of all the thousands of dollars of extra tax revenue.
The whole debate was designed to generate clips. One minute responses is a terrible format. All the responses were just high energy rapid fire buzzwords with no real substance.
No it's not.
The tragedy of the commons is when too many people use a public resource in a way that is unsustainable. For example, air is not privatized but air pollution impacts everyone who checks notes uses air.
That's not to say there aren't solutions to the Tragedy of the Commons problem and resources cannot be made publicly available, but systems need to be created to manage common resources.
Welcome everyone to the concept of the commons (and by extension the tragedy of the commons)

I don't see the US Surgeon General as the correct person to make meaningful changes to curve gun violence.
I do see this as the perfect story for right-wing pundits to turn this into a "the military is gonna take your guns" dog whistle.

They broke the 10th commandment into two commandments. There should have been a semicolon after 10a, not a new line.
(10a) Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's house.
(10b) Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his cattle, nor anything that is thy neighbor's."
I told them their system was fucked. They confirmed that it was a new system.
A tale as old as time.
My co-worker has an electric car and lives in an apartment without a charger. Luckily our office has a few chargers and he only needs to charge it once or twice a week. If he really needed it he could charge at a public fast charger somewhere else in town, but he tries to avoid that.
the US government pressured drone manufacturers to implement privacy and safety features that required internet infrastructure to operate, DJI built those features, and now lawmakers say those same features could be used by China to spy on Americans and are the reason for the ban.
Oh no. Our backdoor can be used by malicious actors. If only we could have seen that coming.
[Request] How Should I Repair this Coat?
I have this nice heavy winter coat that I accidentally tore a small hole in the shell near a chest pocket. It's a tiny rip, but I don't want it to get any larger. Any advice for how I should go about repairing it? I want to try a visible mend instead of a simple patch. The tag says the shell is listed as 61% cotton 39% nylon.
Using solar panels without backup infrastructure makes renewable energy production much more affordable, efficient and sustainable.
