Not a gotcha question, but what things did the LHC discover that have real practical applications right now other than validating some hypothesis? Because I’ve looked into it before and turned up nothing so I’m wondering what I’m missing.

Pretty interesting. I'm gonna take a wild guess that most of the low level (green) jamming is just plain old electromagnetic interference?

Really curious to know what's going on over Poland. Found this article talking about it. Seems to think Russia is responsible which I suppose isn't a surprise.

Where all the tankies at? Lets hear why this is totally cool and ok.

Yeah and anybody complaining about it at that point is just being a whiny child.

Yeah also iOS is getting RCS support soon so the whole point is moot. The whole blue bubble thing is a lot of people with way too much time on their hands to get worried about stuff that doesn't matter at all.

Whole saga has been stupid

Yeah something like 25% of Americans make under $35k. That's poverty wages in this economy.

Everyone losing their minds over this like Firefox doesn't exist.

Stop using Chrome.

The reason this is even a big problem is because everyone piled on Google's browser despite all the obvious reasons that wasn't gonna be a good idea on the long term.

I never understood why anybody thought a company – whose principal business is advertising and data mining – wouldn't eventually rug pull everyone like this with their browser as soon as it hit critical mass for market share.

I’d expect another big exodus around then.

More republican virtue signaling bullshit

Also this was pretty lulzy:

Arizona State Rep. David Marshall, R-Snowflake, and four co-sponsors have introduced House Bill 2121, prohibiting cell-cultured animal products.

I thought the article was dunking on him at first, but it turns out Snowflake isn't just a conservative state of mind, it's also a small town in Arizona.

The outrage these assholes are feeling is what the rest of us feel every time we see them trying to force their dogma into every facet of society.

Like sure the Ioniq is a cool car, but it's fucking $70,000 dollars. I just have a hard time believing they can strap wheels to a battery for less money than that.

 

Reddit has a setting for "don't allow search engines to index my user profile" and I was wondering if kbin has this or if anyone knows whether it's on the roadmap?

 

This for me was one of the big game changer articles I ran into years ago while I was improving my skills in Illustrator. Highly recommended.

One thing I really liked reddit for was reading news and talking about it. I have stopped posting or commenting there now and am in the process of slowly wiping my posting history... but I still browse it for current events a decent bit as it's just a lot more active than over here.

I think my new goal is that whenever I see a news post over there I would really like to comment about, I'm gonna post it over here in a relevant magazine and start a comment in that new Kbin thread instead. Seems like a really easy way to nudge myself into getting more content going over here.

Just kind of a Kbin meta shower thought I guess. Cheers.

 

Train travel is often more expensive than flying. Could taxing aviation to invest in the rail industry help change that?
