  • linearchaos linearchaos 2h ago 100%

    2 months from now: so-and-so government official says we need to investigate the people investigating Musk. He also put out a crowdsource call to find a bank that could cash a billion-dollar check.

  • linearchaos linearchaos 3h ago 100%

    I've worked for big companies before that opened up shell companies in tax havens like Dublin. They literally just moved the payments to there. When they floated it to us, they said hey, we're just not going to owe taxes anymore. We'll save billions.

    We all looked as each other and said Jesus that sounds illegal. And yet there it was and it passed muster and they went public and IPO and everything

  • Cuba fails to restore electricity, suffers second nationwide blackout after grid collapse
  • linearchaos linearchaos 1d ago 100%

    Cuba gets a hell of a lot of hurricanes. They probably have a hard time keeping a solar farm nailed down. Likely they have some of the same problems if they tried to do a lot of wind. Wave or tidal might not be a miserable choice, But that stuff's pretty expensive, and they're still going to have a lot of extreme weather to deal with.

    It probably wouldn't hurt them to have a small nuclear reactor. It would have to be designed very carefully and have a lot of failsafes and redundancies as using diesel for emergency coolant backup is probably not a viable solution for them.

If it uses its own MAC address at the head end I will then collect and publish every connection that thing tries to make outside to a blacklist and provide it to the public.

  • How come people who are against abortion are in favor of the death penalty? Kind of seems like a contradicition/
  • linearchaos linearchaos 1d ago 87%

    In the end, it's because they're told that that's the way it is.

    Abortion makes a an easy political point. Vote for the children.

    Being hard on crime and executing people, That's another easy political point. Vote for the law abiding citizens.

    They don't care that those two things are at odds They don't care about life or death. They care about their own exact situation, and don't really give a rat's ass about anyone else. They believe that the team they're backing gives them the best advantage, and that's absolutely all they care about. Beyond that, it's simply consuming and regurgitating the propaganda, self-perpetuating.

    I will try to unblock ads on a new site one time. I want to see the whole article on one page, No click-through gallery of 27 different takes. There can be ads in the borders and margins. And maybe if I'm feeling generous one in the middle of the content. I don't want to see an unrelated pop-up video I don't want to see every paragraph separated by another ad.

    If they can't play nice I block the ads, If I can't, by default, see the content without the ads, I'll find the article on another service. Everyone's literally just copying the same content back and forth with different wording.

    If I can't see the content, and I can't find it on another service, I'll generally use bypass paywalls clean. If I can't see it through that I don't see it.

    I'm not giving in for this b******* ads all over the place scenario. You can't even read a recipe page nowadays without an ad blocker.

  • Rick and Morty Confirmed for Seasons 11 and 12: Season 8 Update and More
  • linearchaos linearchaos 1d ago 100%

    I can quote the first four seasons line for line. I know all the storylines of five and six.

    All I clearly remember from season seven is the Denny's hole finale, and vaguely the president having some type of attraction with the psychologist in an earlier episode, whenever I try to remember what else was there I just keep coming up with stuff from five and six.

    I should probably watch it again..

  • Boy who attacked sleeping students with hammers at school sentenced to life
  • linearchaos linearchaos 2d ago 100%

    Weird kid in a private boarding school, withdrawn, perhaps autistic mostly online.

    Reading between the lines there's a pretty good chance that the other kids were mercilessly picking on him.

    The zombie invasion line might well have been an attempt to get out of premeditation that he didn't go and grab the hammers to kill them.

    He's still squarely in the wrong and definitely needs to be pulled out of society for a very long time and get psychologic help, But I strongly suspect there are some things at play here that aren't being reported on.

    Given I haven't met a lot of psychopaths, But I have met plenty of children who have been bullied until they snapped.

    Črni Vrh Slovenia ice formations circa 2016

    **Slovenia** High above the village of Črni Vrh, fantastical ice formations—including spikes over a yard long—encase the trees and lookout tower atop Mount Javornik. The windswept ice, or hard rime, is the result of fog freezing after a week of snow and gales. This image appears in the December 2016 issue of National Geographic magazine.

    ::: spoiler spoiler Damn they got down to business right away! Loved the humor. Love the story, Cheezy streaming refs went on a little long. Fry, Leela and the Professors Voicing had a few rough spots that wouldn't have happened in the last incarnation, it honestly kinda reminded me of some of the early voicing in season 1. John DiMaggio's performance was flawless. I love that they kinda mixed in a small anthology, had most of the people make cameos. :::

He shows you every step, what he's thinking and how to correct problems as he goes along. He's never political, always polite and he almost always gets the job done.

    Well-Preserved 3,000-Year-Old Bronze Sword Found In Germany

    https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/bronze-age-sword-germany-180982399/ archaeologists excavating a gravesite in the southern Bavarian town of Nördlingen found a 3,000-year-old sword in excellent condition >Given the soft nature of bronze, historians have previously wondered whether such blades served a ceremonial purpose, rather than a practical purpose on the battlefield. A few years ago, scientists even staged sword fights in order to learn more about how the Bronze Age weapons could have been used effectively in battle, despite being much easier to damage and harder to repair than their iron successors. Hey, are you guys supposed to be playing with the artifacts? it's research!

    "Blood falls" in Antarctica. This water contains ferrous iron, which, combining with atmospheric air, oxidizes and forms rust. It gives the waterfall that blood-red colour

    Source: /r/interestingasfuck /u/XyRow666 I honestly found this one googling around, but XyRow666 presented a far nicer collage than anywhere else I could find. more info: https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/blood-falls Roughly two million years ago, the Taylor Glacier sealed beneath it a small body of water which contained an ancient community of microbes. Trapped below a thick layer of ice, they have remained there ever since, isolated inside a natural time capsule. Evolving independently of the rest of the living world, these microbes exist in a place with no light or free oxygen and little heat, and are essentially the definition of “primordial ooze.” The trapped lake has very high salinity and is rich in iron, which gives the waterfall its red color. A fissure in the glacier allows the subglacial lake to flow out, forming the falls without contaminating the ecosystem within. ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/a66c1faf-ecdf-4a54-8cad-7b73ccef879b.png)

    The Crooked Forest

    The Crooked Forest (Polish: Krzywy Las) is a grove of oddly-shaped pine trees located in the village of Nowe Czarnowo near the town of Gryfino, West Pomerania, in north-western Poland. It is a protected natural monument of Poland. This grove of 400 pines was planted in around 1930. Each pine tree bends sharply to the north, just above ground level, then curves back upright after a sideways excursion of one to three meters (3–9 feet). The curved pines are enclosed by a surrounding forest of straight pine trees. It is generally believed that some form of human tool or technique was used to make the trees grow or bend this way, but the method has never been determined, and remains a mystery to this day. It has been speculated that the trees may have been deformed to create naturally curved timber for use in furniture or boat building. Others surmise that a snowstorm could have bent the trunks, but there is little evidence of that. Many people have been trying to find an answer to this mystery, but since the town of Gryfino was largely abandoned between the early stages of World War II until the 1970s, the people who were there before the war and probably had the answer to the mystery of the Crooked Forest are now likely gone forever. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crooked_Forest
