I mean, it’s not like anyone goes to Fox for real news anyways. I doubt any of their userbase would complain.
Didn’t Reddit already drop at least 40% in valuation from when they started the IPO process a year or so ago?
The real advantage to nuclear subs is their operational range, which is definitely an asset to the US and probably is to Australia. However, the most important part of the AUKUS deal is that not only is the US handing over some (probably) Flight III 688i boats or Virginias in the interim, but also the US and the UK are working with Australia to come up with an indigenous design for Australia to manufacture in country. The US and UK are also working to train Australian sailors and engineers on how to build, operate, maintain, and retire nuclear submarines, and that goes a lot further towards building Australia’s defence capabilities than buying a handful of diesel boats from France.
It’s controlled with a knockoff Xbox controller. I’ll bet the “black box” is a cassette recorder bought from Goodwill for $3 and then spray painted black
What the actual fuck. They built a literal deathtrap
Frankly the biggest safety issue is that they have no transponder. So even if something goes wrong and they have to surface, rescuers are stuck looking for a drifting needle in a 41 million square mile haystack.
I mean, one good long term solution is either ban or heavily, heavily tax corporate ownership of single family homes. And heavily tax short term vacation rentals. Basically force all the companies that are buying up blocks and blocks of single family housing to sell.
Then, take a look at zoning laws. I have no experience with this side, but they’re probably often a barrier to creating medium or high density housing. Which we’re gonna need a lot of in the near future.
Apparently foreign home ownership is a big issue in Canada, so I have to assume it’s also a (smaller) issue in the US.
Basically, the issue I see is not that there isn’t enough housing. It’s that corporate greed is pricing people out of their neighborhoods and then the houses are sitting empty because they’re barely worth $150k, but the “market” says they can be listed at $400k, and not many people can afford that.
I mean, anything will crack under pressure. The biggest issue I see is uneven compression of the two materials coupled with different fatigue behaviors. I’d feel a lot safer if the whole submarine was titanium, honestly. Barring that, a couple inches of solid steel would be just as comforting.
Well with all that taken into account, the fact that we haven’t seen any evidence of the sub yet is a very bad sign.
I am hopeful, but not necessarily optimistic…if it lost power and descended below crush depth, no amount of life support is bringing them back.
Of course! The biggest help for me was having friends that kept me on track, just as I kept them on track. It’s easy to convince yourself to take a 3 hour study break. It’s hard to convince yourself and a couple friends of the same. Good luck!!!
What worked for me was having a couple good friends in my degree program, and always doing the homework together on campus. I never did homework actually at home, and that did wonders for my concentration. I was able to say “if I’m on campus, I’m doing my coursework. If I’m home, I can do whatever I want”, which really helped mentally.
Not the onion@lemmy.ml should be what you’re looking for
My first doomscrolling experiences were FML and I Can Haz Cheezeburger
Yuuuup. I found it an hour or so after making this comment. It just wasn’t where I expected at first, which is really on me lol
I highly recommend PC Partpicker for compiling all your components (although I don’t typically follow the listed purchase links). The comparability checker it has can save some real headaches!
Otherwise, some general advice:
Remember the motherboard standoff screws. Most cases these days have them pre-installed, but my first rig did not. And I bent the mobo a little bit before realizing my mistake. It still worked in the end, but it’s now my #1 cautionary tale about PC Building.
Do yourself a favor, and make an attempt at proper cable management. It’ll make replacing components so much easier down the line.
Get a fully modular PSU (if in your budget). This will help with #2 above immensely.
Read the manual that comes with your motherboard. It usually has a lot of guidance for assembling the computer, especially if this is your first time.
Have fun! PC Building/Gaming is one of my favorite hobbies, and I’m always glad to see new people getting interested in it!
Good luck, and don’t be afraid to ask questions!
So far everything is just a case of getting used to it for me. I’m using the Jerboa app, and the two biggest improvements I can see right now are 1) allowing me to change the default sort (top, new, active, etc.). I can change it every time I open the app, but I’d like to be able to set it and forget it and 2) I’m not a huge fan of pinned posts staying at the top of my feed no matter how I’m sorting it, although this would also be solved by hiding already read posts, I suppose.
I’ll bet spez isn’t too happy about Apollo featuring in the Apple WWDC rather than the official app, either
Interestingly, Trey Parker and Matt Stone bought Casa Bonita in 2021 and they just reopened it this month.
