We can see them from the luminance of their accretion disks, or via gravitational lensing, or polar radiation jets, or gravitational waves
No one is ever pure enough to be truly left wing, are they?
This is why approval voting is my preference: easy to vote, easy to count, and still works if ths voter doesn’t know a thing about it and just marks one candidate
a slingshot
Yes, LIGO has observed the gravitational wave “chirp” from two black holes orbiting each other closer and closer until they join
All at the same time? every single one?
We don’t do it for other holidays, do we?
She did not. Do you know what “advocate” means?
Don’t just show up making shit up.
Can’t wait for the world’s richest man to tell us we need to tighten our belts.
How soon before some national park mountaintops get sold off “for efficiency” and billionaire’s palaces just happen to end up there?
Yeah, you become a trillion dollar company by being lazy and not knowing what people want!
so all the air traffic controllers, and truck drivers and grocery store clerks and police officers and emergency room doctors would take that day off?
How much of your EV charging money goes out the power plant smokestack, into the river/cooling tower, or heats up the air around the electrical wiring though?
i’m a proponent of EV’s, even when they charge from fossil powered grids, because of the thermodynamic efficiency gain.
But ragememes, no. Let’s not be like that.
no shit, that’s when the precincts that have 500,000 people in them report in late at night because there’s so many to count.
I want that whole arrangement to be in a tip with a USB-C receptacle and a fixed voltage and barrel size so it’s barely bigger than my thumbnail and can be used with standard usb-c cables.
So I can get a “9V-5.5x2.5-Pos” to convert my casio keyboard to usbc, without all that other stuff hanging off and extra, unnecessary pieces
But yeah that’s cool
And O-circumflex “ô” in French indicates an elided “s”. hô = hos
now someone needs to make USB-C jack to barrel plug “tips” with the PD chip built in so I can substitute USB-C for wall wart transformers.
guar gum, xantham gun, locust bean extract, etc - all emulsifers or texture additives used to mask lower product quality and allow more air to be whipped in.
Even the expensive stuff, Ben & Jerrys (sold out to PE a while ago), boutique brands at Whole Foods, and even Kirkland premiun have the same list of bullshit.
The only brand I can reliably find without them is Haagen Dazs.
Electors do not get paid off to vote a certain way. They submit electoral votes according to who won their state.
Kind of tired of this “entire system is broken and corrupt” BS.
I make as much as possible to avoid the flavor additives, texture modifiers, and preservatives found in much packaged food.
I make waffles from scratch and freeze them for quick breakfast. Prep large pots of soup, chili, stew, etc and freeze in deli tubs.
But as to who is right? No answer on that. I have built up plenty of cooking experience so things that seem tricky or time consuming to other people don’t faze me.
This is what Russian propaganda looks like in 2024
> Pro-Russia social media accounts amplifying stories about divisive political topics such as immigration and campus protests over the war in Gaza.
> Influence operations linked to Russia take aim at a disparate range of targets and subjects around the world. But their hallmarks are consistent: attempting to erode support for Ukraine, discrediting democratic institutions and officials, seizing on existing political divides and harnessing new artificial intelligence tools.
> "They're often producing narratives that feel like they're throwing spaghetti at a wall," said Andy Carvin, managing editor at the Atlantic Council's Digital Forensic Research Lab, which tracks online information operations. "If they can get more people on the internet arguing with each other or trusting each other less, then in some ways their job is done."
The effort includes artificial intelligence, fake social media accounts and a spike in state-sponsored Russian propaganda.

Russia is seeking to exploit America’s divisive debate over Israel’s offensive in Gaza through overt and covert propaganda, with the aim of aggravating political tensions in the U.S. and tarnishing Washington’s global image, according to two sources familiar with U.S. intelligence on the matter.
In its ongoing information war against the United States, Russia has shifted its focus in recent months to the Israel-Hamas conflict, seeking to inflame existing divisions in the West and to portray Washington as fueling the violence, the sources said.

A favorite theme of Russian information operations is to paint America as a failing democratic state, according to U.S. officials and researchers.
At an event last week in Washington, Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines said Russia works to denigrate America’s standing in the world, to undermine democratic institutions and processes and to exploit social, political and economic divisions “in our culture and in our society.”
What are the best Lemmy clients for iPhone?
Which ones have you tried, which ones did you stop using, and which ones are the best of the bunch?
I am using Memmy and it’s not quite there - difficult touch targets, poor infinite scroll implementation, and crashy search are the big issues.
EDIT: I installed Voyager, it’s working great! Thanks for the suggestions!
