I don’t know about ketamine but I have been around people on Amphetamines. He acts like they did. So a guy trying to run 3 companies at the same time would presumably use amphetamines to have the time. You can go for days without sleeping.

Death by cirrhosis was also a side effect of my grandfather’s bottle a day drinking.

For one thing stop the Kratom. It’s highly problematic in general but weight loss is a common side effect. General stimulation without energy reserves is also a common side effect leading to dizziness.

For food try a Shooter’s sandwich.

If you have use of an outlet for an hour or so before lunch rice cooker meals can make a great hot lunch that only needs to be plugged in before lunch.

So on 9/11 the fighters scrambled to intercept United 91 had no weapons installed. There were no orders but one of the two pilots sad the plan was to ram the cockpit bringing down the both their plane and the passenger plane.

I’ll add that very few fighter pilots will ever scramble a plane. There is a large checklist pilots go through before taking off particularly a fighter. When a fighter is scrambled that’s all skipped.

Not exactly. In Florida with a felony conviction from another state you can’t vote if the conviction prevents you from voting in the state where convicted. So the NY rules apply because It’s a NY conviction.

Most members aren’t allowed to spy on their own citizens without things like warrants. So they spy on the other members citizens and then share the info.

It’s basically a way around citizen rights.

Partially. ACA is mostly based on the compromise plan to appease republicans when Clinton was trying to do health care reform in 1993. It failed and led to the Republicans taking control of the senate for the fist time in 40 years.

It set the stage for the pattern of Dems ignoring the left portion of the party for a compromise proposal with the Republicans. The Republicans bail on the compromise and nothing happens.

Voters are pissed at the Dems for not doing anything and put the Republicans in power the next election. Basically the template for the pattern we still see today.

It runs fine on Linux Mint Debian under proton for me.

They also charge storage fees to keep your products on their shelf in the warehouse.

I’m a US citizen. Please kick us out. The more countries that take concrete action against us that actually hurt us the more likely congress and the voters are to stand up to Trump.

I’m poly but have a friend who it’s VERY poly. Her squigle is huge. I have no idea how they manage.

Pocket. A closed source binary blob in a “open source” project.

Orbit: AI productivity tool.

Anonym: Ad server.

Locking down extensions.

Cutting 250 jobs while raising executive pay 400%.

In 2021 the CEO made 5.5 million. They got about 7 million in donations that year.

80% of their revenue is from google. But google encourages them to waste the money on stuff not related to the browser because it’s competition to chrome. Their job us to look like a viable competitor but not be good one.

The browser is constantly getting worse on performance, user experience, and customizability.

They have gone from 34% user share to 2.2%. So clearly I’m not alone in my opinion of the current state of the browser.

Neat. I know almost nothing about the the Higgs field.

Because this is a science thread I’ll be a bit pedantic. Mostly because I think it’s an interesting topic. It’s a mass-energy equivalence (≡) and not just an equality (=) they are the same thing.

So it’s meaningless to say convert mass into energy. It’s like saying I want to convert this stick from being 12 inches long to being 1 foot long.

You can convert matter (the solid form of energy) into other types of energy that are not solid. But the mass stays the same.

It’s like when people say a photon is massless. It has energy and therefor mass. It just has no rest mass. So from the photons frame of reference no mass but from every other fame of reference there is mass.

My old school had a scale model of the solar system. It used the same scale for the planets size and distance. The sun was a 12" ball on one end of campus. Around campus were poles with little glass domes on top inside were tiny pins with little planet models on them.

So humans vision is much more sensitive to green than other colors. it’s why camera sensors are 50% green 25% red 25% blue. Which makes sense as being able to detect small differences in plant cover is useful in both detecting predators and prey.

If humans had more flat color detection range we woulda actually be able to see that the sky is purple and not blue.

There are two main inverter approaches. One big inverter that takes the DC from a bunch of panels and converts it into AC and micro inverters where each panel gets it’s own small one placed directly under the panel.

The micro inverters cost around $150 each. So you need around 10 panels before the single inverter becomes a good choice.

Installers love the micro because the install is easier. However as a owner with say 30 panels you now have 30 points of possible failure instead of the 1.

It’s either a signal filter or more likely a power stabilizer to handle fast load spikes when the device suddenly changes power usage levels.

I’ve learned the hard way that every ttl chip gets it’s own cap between vcc and ground.

I wanted to like Surviving Mars so much but there was something so frustrating about how they implemented the domes. I’d come back to it every so often and give up in frustration.

For my state congressman during the primaries a guy knocked on my door and was ruining in the Democratic primary. Young guy who claimed progressive values. Creepy vibe.

I looked him up after and he had a failed bid as a republican congressman one state over. Republicans are trying to sneak in their own into democratic primaries and it’s working.
