How did this manifest before? You only need to look at the advertising of the time. Take the 1950s America - McCarthyism and the red scare in full force. Most US marketing relied heavily on how buying American made you a good patriotic citizen, living the American dream… even if the product wasn’t 100% American.
I think people who dislike flatpaks or similar aren’t having “problems”. They work, but they’re using using a sledgehammer to drive a nail.
…and it’s turned them into the state with the highest standard of living in the US…right?
No, but I don’t think you’re appreciating how difficult it would be to fill that 3%. It’s not just about having 3% more power from something. It’s having it at the right time. It needs to be on demand. Having something on demand that has to cover all it’s costs selling just 3% isn’t easy.
It’s more resilient to have mixed supply where multiple types of generation take a proportion. Then when one falls short another can scale up a little.
If somebody has to keep that gas generator serviced only to run it on winter mornings, that electricity is going to be very pricey.
Exactly. They’re not “accusing Putin”. They are saying to Trump " He is humiliating you! What are you going to do about it?"
I’ve tried this a few times. I don’t think it works.
Basically the way you want to explain a piece of reasoning , and the order in which things need to be defined for a program, are different. You end up either making the document match the code structures, or the code structure match the document. Both are bad.
It’s only the timescale I’m unsure about.
Venison probably. Boar is also good.
On poultry, I’d go turkey over duck. Not keen on goose, too fatty.
I’m going to be bold. The internal combustion engine car.
There will be a tipping point where nobody wants to maintain the highly intricate manufacturing for them, and they will stop very quickly. Electric motors are the future and the transition is accelerating. We’re currently around 20% of new sales and I expect after 60-70% ICEs will just disappear from sale.
Not really. Power induction through air is inherently lossy. That’s just physics.
No, we have a vaccine for that.
That last graph is very impressive, but the shortfalls worry me. They’re too small to make it cost effective to have an alternative source handily available, but if you don’t you’re resigning yourself to major power outages.
I’d quite like to know how much we need to overbuild capacity to remove them completely.
there’s just no market demand for it
Oh… There’s demand for it for sure.
The image generation models that exist are unquestionable proof of demand for penises. I think what’s missing is the kahunas required to make a business around it. There are places even pornographers fear to tread.
You know how when you look at a picture of someone and you cover up the clothed bits, they look naked. Your brain fills in the gaps with what it knows of general human anatomy.
It’s like that.
That could be a socially healthy place to end up at. I don’t see it anytime soon though. Just look at the other response I got.
Disagree. Not CSAM when no abuse has taken place.
That’s my point.
Honestly I think we need to understand that this is no different to sticking a photo of someone’s head on a porn magazine photo. It’s not real. It’s just less janky.
I would categorise it as sexual harassment, not abuse. Still serious, but a different level
The plant is called rape. The seed is rapeseed.
Lawsuits seem like the wrong way to decide medical efficacy of treatments.
