The exact same thing happened to me while I was deplaning, a few years prior to Covid. Full face sneeze with no effort to cover their mouth or nose, at like 1 foot away. So I still wear a mask on planes and in the airport.

Yeah, it’s quieter so there’s fewer overall responses even in “popular” posts, but it doesn’t feel like anything gets ignored. If a post is interesting, you’ll get at least a few replies even if it takes a few days.

That part is kinda nice - the lower turnover on the “front page” means you’ll have people reading and commenting on discussions for days. If you reply to a 1-day old post on Reddit the only person who might see/reply to you is the person you replied to.

The US Department of Energy…

None of the affected models are Sonatas though, despite them being number 2 in this list of stolen cars.

No problem! Also your response just reminded me of one key feature that Arctic has that Voyager doesn’t yet: push notifications.

I used to use Memmy before development stopped. I found Voyager had all the features/UI that I wanted and used that for a while. Recently I’ve started trying Arctic - it’s similar to Voyager but has a few UI tweaks I prefer.

Edit: oh and both of these apps support instance blocking

I am not reading your comment, I am simply traveling through it with my eyeballs. Also your comment doesn’t have gold fringe and therefore lacks jurisdiction.

but women (who are human beings)

Is that actually the church’s stance? Like, has the pope ever said this?

What about one that pisses beer?

As annoying as it is to lug a bag around and find room for it, I much prefer this to checking it. There’s the small but nonzero chance your bag doesn’t make it to your destination, plus the added time waiting at baggage return.

As someone who occasionally struggles with insomnia, I highly recommend the Insomnia Coach App for iOS or Android. It’s entirely free (no ads or in-app purchases) and based on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. It was developed by the US Department of Veterans Affairs, but it’s available and applicable to anyone who has trouble sleeping. It has guided meditation and other tools to help you sleep or identify causes of insomnia.

It requires some effort on your part: you follow a 5 week training plan and keep a sleep diary throughout. However the effort is minimal and again, it’s free. Following the sleep plan significantly improved the number of nights that I have good sleep.

Yeah they had the first functional iOS app long before anyone else (Mlem had started earlier but stalled for a while). I recall some of the Memmy developer’s comments saying they had learned a lot about app development since the first beta and had big plans to overhaul the code base. I’m assuming this turned into too much for them to handle, especially as an unpaid gig.

It’s a shame Memmy’s been abandoned, but I’m still super appreciative of the developer for making a workable Lemmy app back then. It definitely helped ease the sting of the transition from Reddit.

It still is a blurry orange ball, where the orange is the location of radio wave emission. The team did a new image where they measured the polarization of the light, which is the result of strong magnetic fields where the light was emitted. The lines are drawn over the image to depict the polarization orientation of the light as a function of location.

I want to be clear that this is an incredible feat, both the fact that they can produce an image of a black hole from the center of our galaxy AND determine the polarization of the light. But they don’t have a super crisp image of matter swirling into a black hole.

There are free options for federal taxes: https://turbotaxsucksass.org/ (yes that is the real URL, the site was initially created by John Oliver for a Last Week Tonight episode).

What state are you in? Many also offer free options for state taxes.

I will run this thing until it dies.

Good luck with that. My 2011 MacBook Pro still works. I’m pretty sure it’ll outlive me.

There’s an entire book dedicated to answering your question: The World Without Us.

The Wikipedia article I linked summarizes a lot of the book, but I recommend reading it since the details are fascinating.

TL;DR:

The longest-lasting evidence on Earth of a human presence would be radioactive materials, ceramics, bronze statues, and Mount Rushmore. In space, the Pioneer plaques, the Voyager Golden Record, and radio waves would outlast the Earth itself.

Settle down, Jayden

It’s already been published. But it’s superconducting at 10 K. This is a new high temperature record, but pretty far from room temperature.

They’ve been doing studies of what would be required for ignition for a while, but have never demonstrated ignition using the Z machine.

If they did have ignition, there’s no way they would’ve let LLNL claim to be first and enjoy all the media attention.
