Which is why the slang for diamonds is “ice.” They feel quite cold when you touch them because they have such high thermal conductivity.

Oh God, I’m so sorry, I just realized this post is 6 days old wow.

She lost for a lot of reasons. OP has one of them. You have another. Both are valid and work to partially explain her loss.

But honestly, significantly lower turnout by Dems this cycle seems to be the underlying cause of her loss. Whether that stems from Israel (or her gender, or her unwillingness to distance herself from Biden, or her inability to don the mantle of a populist in an age where populism is ousting governments all over the world, or her campaign’s difficulty in countering Republican messaging effectively, or a million other reasons you could invent) is debatable, and probably will be picked apart and analyzed by people far more qualified than I and probably also you. There are studies to be made, data to gather, and so on.

Blaming everything on a single cause based on vibes is fine, rhetorically. And I wish Dems did more of that, because it is effective messaging, and it’s certainly true that this country still has a misogyny problem. But if you’re interested in understanding and picking apart the actual causes of Harris’s loss, then being open minded does help. And the rhetoric can be saved for a forum where it is more likely to piss off a Trump voter.

“You should willing expose yourself to danger to protect the profits and business models of corporations who are attempting to monetize your attention and personal information.”

I really don’t think I’d lose any sleep if suddenly YouTube, Facebook, etc, became unsustainable. I remember what the Internet was like before every dumbass MBA decided to try to wring as much money as possible out of it, and I preferred it that way.

Ad block is the number one thing you can do on the Internet to reduce your risk to exploits, phishing, etc. The US government recommends the use of ad block specifically for this reason. Usage of ad block is basic internet security hygiene.

An environmental posadist. Not a stance I’ve normally seen. Imo, if nothing came out of deep water horizon, there’s no oil accident big enough to matter.

Transocean received an early partial insurance settlement for total loss of the Deepwater Horizon of US$401 million about 5 May 2010.[60] Financial analysts noted that the insurance recovery was likely to be more than the value of the rig (although not necessarily its replacement value) and any liabilities – the latter estimated at as much as US$200 million.

No one tell OP that the ml in lemmy.ml is for Marxist Leninists.

Most closely matches the behavior of actual SNES consoles.

This requires very careful emulation of the timings of the various buses and co-processors, as well as on-cart chips which may or may not be present. For instance, a Speedy Gonzales game has a button in the final stage which crashes almost every emulator because enters an infinite loop reading from an open bus and waiting for the value to attain a specific pattern. However reading from an open bus is generally specified to be the last value loaded into the bus, which in this case is the load instruction itself, $18. So the value is read to be $1818 by most emulators, which doesn’t match the pattern expected.

However, this is only if you’re emulating with instruction level accuracy. It is possible for the value of the bus to change in between the instruction being loaded and the value of the bus being loaded due to an HDMA load being triggered, but this requires a cycle accurate emulator.
