Such significant commitments on a national level with international treaties should I think be carried by more than a simple majority. Its not a simple choice and without decent will behind it there is every chance it doesn’t last or causes enormous strife within the populace. But the vote is advisory and fundamentally will probably be based on the majority regardless so its now up to government to decide if its enough to move forward.
In a recent video Lance Hendricks showed that the filter paper touching the side of the brewer is what draws water out of the brewing process to bypass going directly through the bed. So the immersion of an Aeropress is not using this mechanism at all since the entire water is being pushed through the bed of coffee and immersed whereas a hario switch some of the water is still bypassing the bed directly.
How much this matters is less the shorter the period of time before the water is pulled around and outside. But it also means there isn’t really just one immersion or v60 like brewer because it depends on so many factors to determine bypass and extraction. The angle of the brewer, the contact of the paper, the technique in agitation it all impacts how gets extracted. Still as a basic idea these v60 like devices that can be closed do provide almost the same thing up to the point when you open them up at which point they will behave like a v60 and there isn’t anything you can do about that. How much that matters is hard to really know they taste pretty similar to me but Lance’s video is worth a watch because it does at least show there is a difference and that will have some impact.
Depends on the headset, they don’t all work on Linux unfortunately.
He sent billions in weapons to make it happen.
Probably the only way they will get taxation money out of the tech giants given all the shady things they do to transfer the profits out of countries to evade taxes. VAT at least is a lot more obvious and harder to avoid although I don’t put it past them to start doing even shadier things.
Looks lovely. If it drives as well as Assetto Corsa and adds some of the modern physics features (which looks like with the puddles and night time) and it doesn’t loose any features it will be pretty popular. I am still hoping they will expand the features a bit especially on multiplayer game play and scheduled ranked servers.
It got a lot of controversial press before its release and I can’t really recall hearing what the movie is about or it being any good.
I see a lot of confusion and misinformation in the comments about what Just Stop Oils demands are. Their website makes it very plain and you can read through the details yourself. The press has massively misrepresented the groups demands and goals so its best to read it for yourself. https://juststopoil.org/
These are the 3 demands they have.
✅ Demand 1: No New Oil and Gas Licences – WON!
🔥 Demand 2: Just Stop Oil by 2030.
🧡 We need a Fossil Fuel Treaty.
There is no immediate demand to stop or anything so extreme, they are largely what the UK has already agreed to do but is failing to achieve.
Peaceful protests have not worked, disruptive protests have been widely villified and the protestors jailed for very long sentences. If you are facing 2-3 years for holding up a banner or throwing some paint seems like criminal damage of a fossil fuel facility isn’t likely to net more years. As many have said in the past governments ignore peaceful protests at their peril, because once its clear that doesn’t work they become not peaceful.
This has been ridiculous. I have no idea how long my CPU will last and whether it will just randomly start failing. Intel has run out of spares and it seems to have had so many stabs at fixing the problem now that if we believe this is really the last one we are the fools.
These CPUs need a recall.
A right to repair is long overdue but more than that when it comes to medical devices it’s obvious battery replacement is going to be necessary and should be user accessible.
Then when you age out and never call them they wonder why it is you don’t.
There is a slight complexity to this as methane breaks down into CO2 over a period of about 20 years, in the meantime it contributes a higher warming effect. But there is a measure called CO2e which is the equivalent including the other green house gases and it too has been accelerating so it doesn’t change the point its just there are some prior emission impacts on current CO2 in the atmosphere.
Having now flooded the internet with bad AI content not surprisingly its now eating itself. Numerous projects that aren’t AI are suffering too as the quality of text reduces.
Twitter is defined entirely by what is followed, you can stay completely out of the toxic far right stuff and block those that don’t know where they are. There are still plenty of sub communities there that exist no where else and you can control your feed better than Lemmy and other forum like systems. Twitter overall is declinimg but it’s not the full picture because what is happening doesn’t impact lots of people who use the platform that much.
We knew this was coming, we knew if we didn’t stop pumping CO2 into our atmosphere we would have to mitigate a lot of the damage at much greater cost and yet here we having increased the rate at which we increase CO2 into the atmosphere to now a whopping 3.3 ppm annually and we have spent nothing on mitigation. Honestly it feels like our governments just chose we were all going to die and were fine with it.
Look out for that immigrant, he wants your cookie.
We don’t actually need new laws. There are already existing mechanisms for holding the directors of companies criminally responsible for damage and death they cause. Its not new laws we need its the existing ones enforced and done so not just against the water companies but any company that is harming the environment and people or committing other criminal acts.
People have been repeatedly told not to go near this group. Its the age old story where “modern man” meets indigenous tribe and kills a bunch of them with disease and they now consider us at war. We need to leave these people alone.
We don’t and we won’t.
