No please! Electric substations are necessary to transmit power, and we actually need more of them if we’re going to build the amount of renewables we need.
If you’re looking for parts of the electrical system that I feel less positively about, that would include data centers (especially for AI and crypto mining) and coal-fired power plants.
Of course, industrial sabotage is a crime, and with all the high voltage and current going around, it’s a particularly dangerous one at that. Would not recommend
Good to know, thank you for educating me!
Wait, what’s wrong with pip?
(Disclaimer: I grade my Python proficiency slightly above beginner. I used it for some research in college and grad school, and I’ve made a few helpful scripts at work, but I am not anything approaching an expert)
Well, I’ve read a lot of theory, and I’m pretty sure our best bet is posting memes online, crossing our fingers, and hoping for the best. We definitely shouldn’t go outside and talk to people, that’ll never work
Yep! That’s what I do. I use just about everything else in Proton’s ecosystem, but I choose to use Bitwarden as my password manager. Just feels like better practice to not be wholly dependent on Proton for all my security.
It’s what I use for work, and it is quite nice!
As long as the insides work all right, I’m good! I’m into thrifting and visible mending, so something well-loved, but cheap, is right up my alley
Yep, I think it’s what I’ll be going with!
It can be really helpful or harmful, depending on the context. I think there’s a ton of promise for psychedelics for mental health, but I get nervous about people taking them to self-medicate.
It’s one reason I’m more interested in psychedelic assisted therapy, because in my personal experience, while I did have some positive changes, I think I also didn’t interpret some of those new perspectives in an ultimately healthy way. In the end, I feel like I learned that I’m not mentally healthy enough to responsibly take psychedelics outside of a professional therapy program.
Fortunately I was able to do some genetic testing through my psychiatrist, and I was finally able to find an antidepressant that actually works with minimal side effects, after a lot of trial and error with stuff that I reacted really poorly to.
It’s what brought me over! And then I learned so many more reasons to hate it that I hadn’t even known about lol
My favorite edition!
I don’t get it. Can you explain?
It’s convention, I think. If I remember correctly, you always put y on the left, because you can also write equations as functions of a variable, x, with the symbology f(x) = mx + b. That way you can integrate and derive the function easily, since m and b are constants, and all your x variables are on one side.
If I were to encounter x = my + b, the first thing I would do, just by nature at this point, would be to convert it to y = (x - b) / m.
It’s been a while since I took math, and I was never the best, so others should feel free to correct me.
To be fair, there is open source hardware- Arduino and whatnot. But a microcontroller is a lot simpler than a full computer.
I started around 2018, using crouton to run Ubuntu on a Chromebook so I could have better functionality. I went back to Windows for a while, then I started using Pop!OS as my daily driver last year. I still don’t know if I love it, but I’m sticking with Linux of some flavor going forward.
I mean, I suppose that’s fair. I guess paying for email with Monero feels a bit like overkill to me, but it depends on your threat model
Do you need to pay for your email provider with Monero? If it’s the VPN that you primarily care about, then I believe Mullvad accepts Monero
I misread and I’m still wondering. Can you please help me out here?
