You really think the NSA will get involved to track someone who wants to get an abortion?
Probably not, unless it’s an exceptional case where they are already interested for another reason.
But if, say, county sheriffs across the country also got access, I would be surprised if I didn’t hear about women’s and doctors’ lives being ruined by them.
It could be a sign that you’re too surrounded by the stuff. I used to always be tech & specs obsessed. It was like I viewed the world through the lens of technology because that was going to make new things possible.
But then in recent years, my relationship with tech has changed and I am better for it. It’s less core to my personal existence even though it is just as handy as ever and my life is full of screens.
It starts to sound like cliches and platitudes, but most of what makes the world beautiful and life worthwhile has not changed. Seriously just spending a lot of time outside and with the people that matter to me produce undeniable results, even if I have to drug myself to kickstart the process. But after doing that a few times, being mindful and intentional about the whole process being for positive outcomes, I start not just looking forward to those occasions but prioritizing time & money to help.
Bro I tried some and I was looking absolutely radiant afterwards.
Well if they can keep income inequality growing, there’s a big pool of wage slaves to draw from with much better optics.
Omg, is the labyrinth of broken toilets thing a common stress dream? That’s the kind of “nightmare” that messes with me — filled with plausible mundane stuff that makes it seem 100% real and 0% fantasy. It’s like having a panic attack while you aren’t even conscious.
Oh wow, thanks for the explanation.
And regarding the further processing, it depends on the product and how it’s taken. Maybe it’s just less controlled where I am, because you can buy just about anything you want with a medical card and there are plenty of thca products available.
But you’re obviously in a unique situation and the stuff works for your friends, so my guess seems a lot less likely!
Any chance that thc oil contains THCA and needs to be decarbed? Seems weird to feel nothing, unless your prescription was minuscule to begin with.
Oh yeah, I think ITER is supposed to have a Q of like 10, so maybe they can produce a net gain system-wide.
I like to follow fusion news whenever I see it, and I think the situation might be even worse than you’re describing, lol.
The news about ignition and/or more energy out than in, that refers to the energy actually delivered to the sample versus the full energy released from the sample. So it doesn’t include all the energy needed to charge and fire the lasers that was lost along the way. And like you said, it’s the thermal power they’re measuring, and you lose a huge amount of that power when converting to electricity.
I think we’re still firmly in the “fusion is 20/30 years away” cycle.
Yeah I agree, and you still hear that BS about fusion power, that it will be an unlimited source of cheap/free clean energy.
I guess I could imagine scenarios where power is not metered and is supported via taxes, maybe in a scenario where citizens have a right to energy just like a right to healthcare. It’s not free by any means, but the people who make the most money and thus benefit the most from the infrastructure end up paying into it the most. And the truly poor would get free (to them) electricity.
It seems pretty consistent that any time I hear somebody mention Sharia Law, I am in for some horrible takes.
No anomalies detected in this case.
For me the 365 suite (including copilot) all works great inside Firefox on Mint. But I work in software so the other everyday stuff is pretty well available.
I assume some day I’ll need to boot back into windows for something, but it’s already Ben months.
Of course there are, because mining and construction are powered by the old stuff. That doesn’t seem like a compelling downside to building things that generate clean power, since that’s a downside to building literally anything.
At first I wanted to reply about how one can HOPE that capitalism’s never ending extraction of value from labor might build a better future and enable more happiness.
But there’s a deeper assumption in that statement, and in my limited personal experience it affects conservatives the most. That is thinking that happiness is caused by external factors: money, toys, status, power, etc.
How wonderful would it be if the ultimate effect of the AI fad was to use the tech industry’s billions to install tons of carbon free power generation?
We should be so blessed to have President Camacho working for us! All listening to big brained motherfuckers and shit.
It’s both amusing and depressing to see all the rugged individuals loudly advertising what a vital subject they are.
I’m using Linux mint all day at work, while I have a couple of rarely-used Windows machines at home. I think the swap to Linux on those home machines is going to be a winter project this year.
It might be more accurate to say the project will be setting up the Linux version of a few key pieces of software. The actual installation of Linux Mint is the easiest part!
I’m not sure there’s a good way to know without trying. I never even tried a short beard because it never looked right until I got past the “long enough to look good” threshold.
But that doesn’t mean never trimming a single hair, or anything extreme like that. I don’t like mine to grow out to the sides, so I’ve kept the sides trimmed.
Making my first Lemmy post because this moment in my DS9 rewatch made me think of you all.
I think I’ll call her Captain Gilora Lochley.
Also, DS9 is even better than I remember. It’s been a while!
