Yeah, I took a risk with that one, happy it worked out.

Yeah, it’s actually incredible that some people still manage to break corruption laws with all the stuff you can get away with legally.

They had done successful dives in the past. The hull could withstand compression/decompression a few times, but eventually it gave up (something they were undoubtedly warned about by people that knew better than to use carbon fibre for this application).

Didn’t you hear? A cop got shot in the subway just the other day, along with 3 other bystanders. They’re just being hunted out there.

He’s ok with pushing outright lies, and it’s hard to keep up with all the right wing lies that are floating around. I hope Walz just starts calling them the liars they are instead of avoiding ‘name calling’.

I guess someone thought that was one way of getting out of a court date.

Why do these people keep looking at the Matrix as a manual instead of a warning?

Sometimes you don’t have a huge amount of choice when it comes to employment. A lot of schools and hospitals are run by the church.

Clinton’s mistake was campaigning in Texas instead of Michigan, not ‘not punching left enough’.

If you want to win over green voters, maybe run on some of the popular things that the greens are running on instead of guilt tripping.

They’re literally breaking the law to continue sending weapons to Israel. You could impeach Biden over that, but because there’s such a consensus around continuing the genocide they’re letting this slide despite doing bullshit investigations on Biden for things he obviously didn’t do.

It just shows that Congress is just an elaborate theatre production.

I wonder if it’s the same guy that shot at his opponent’s house last election cycle.

Yeah, that’s definitely been the strategy of the liberals/nationals in Australia. In a country that historically has never had nuclear, has a bunch of state and federal bans against nuclear and no infrastructure at all to deal with nuclear waste or fuel, they want to build a nuclear plants (oh , and those will be micro plants which don’t actually exist anywhere!) instead of continuing to build more renewables. And they’re pushing hydrogen as well.

It’s actually disgusting that an industry that knows it has no long term future decided that they should just delay the inevitable for just a few more years/decades at the cost of our only planet. I just can’t fathom being this fucked in the head to make that calculation.

I could see hydrogen being useful for some applications where you don’t need the public infrastructure. Buses that refuel at a central depot could be one of those if there’s issues with battery electric being too heavy and stuff like that.

But for ordinary people that can charge their car at home or work without needing to go to a third place it’s hard to beat that convenience.

Hydrogen also has a history of being pushed by fossil fuel companies, probably because initially most hydrogen would be generated using fossil fuels, so it’s not exactly a fast track to reducing emissions.

Hydrogen cars didn’t need any help with failing. I’m sure there’s niche applications for it, but battery electric has basically won that particular fight.

But nobody’s actually taking about subsidising or making them, so there’s no point in ranting about it.

She’s incompetent, that’s probably what you want if you’re obviously guilty and hoping to get off on a technicality.

Fuck…

Maybe to connect to their update servers and validate updated binaries or something like that? Not sure if it supported calling home to get updates.

Probably a more likely scenario.

If the effect is the same, does it matter?
