@LB29796986 @ProfRobAnderson Offices generally are, homes generally aren't. Kind of ironic as we spend less time in the office than americans. Folk sure did see the advantages of hybrid working though, when the weather was heating up and the office has AC (and the company paid that power bill)

L B@LB29796986·1d

@ProfRobAnderson I'm on board with clowning europeans for not having AC at home but i've worked office jobs in different EU countries and all of them were climate controlled. Seems to be much more common

I see Euro A/C is in the discourse again. One time I was working for a summer in a law firm in France and I was miserable in the heat. When I asked the partner why they didn't have A/C he said, "It's bad for the lungs," as he took a long drag from his cigarette.

@pottypilgrim @history99917180 So many scots hoodwinked into voting SNP because they believed these were earnest, determined, average joes, not those stereotypical westminster types with their embezzling and sexual indiscretions, and everything else that ultimately turned out to be present in the SNP too.

English

Eyeopener@pottypilgrim·1d

@history99917180 For many Scots, the loathing of the English and Westminster is so intense they are prepared to turn a blind eye to such things which is why the SNP is always voted in.

Are you seriously suggesting the person who was the leader of the Scottish parliament didn’t notice when her husband rocked up in a camper van worth £125 grand? Seriously?? You’re a fucking idiot if you believe Nicola Sturgeon or the SNP.

@baxterparp @history99917180 On it's own, making obvious sacrifices elsewhere ? Sure. But then look at all the other conspicuous purchases he was making, it should have been very obvious to her that he had some other income.

@NotAServal @A_MUFASSA @bayraktar_1love That's not what I'm saying - I'm saying why send a slow and 'lightweight' version of a kinetic rod, when sending a similar package of explosives would have more impact. The point of the rods is heavy and fast and the impact will cause trouble, but not annihilation, further out.

English

Rechtschreib Kadse@NotAServal·1d

@hatter @A_MUFASSA @bayraktar_1love That is not how fucking physics works. You can't just magically transform kinetic energy to chemical energy. Even if you managed to hit a target with a 20 kg tungsten rod, it would fuck up everything in a meter or so diameter but nothing more. There is no explosion.

⚠️ Another angle of the reported Oreshnik strike on Bila Tserkva, allegedly showing impacts from the missile’s inert kinetic rods. As seen from the published footages this time Oreshnik deployed six submunition clusters, each carrying six kinetic rods, for a total of 36 rods.

Special Kherson Cat 🐈🇺🇦@bayraktar_1love

⚠️ Reports are emerging that Russia have launched an Oreshnik intermediate-range ballistic missile toward Bila Tserkva in Kyiv Oblast. Footage circulating online shows the impact of high-velocity kinetic submunitions consistent with the Oreshnik’s design.

@A_MUFASSA @bayraktar_1love @smx_pd Again though, what's a kinetic weapon, with noticably lower m, thus lower m x v ? The damage is done by the effects of extemely rapid impact creating concussive waves around where it strikes, a lighter projectile, not driven hard into it's final descent, seems fruitless.

@bayraktar_1love @hatter la réponse à ma question a été donné par @smx_pd, cependant, d'un point de vue physique, un corps plus léger aurait une vitesse terminale moins importante dû à l'influence de la masse.... L'impression de lenteur des projectiles peut être liée à la trajectoire

@A_MUFASSA @bayraktar_1love If they're not moving fast, what's the point of a kinetic weapon ? Mass+velocity is supposed to outweigh explosive damage of equivalent mass.

English

A man has no name!@A_MUFASSA·2d

@bayraktar_1love This is not oreshnik you can tell by the speed, this just means they have a smaller Kinetic missile we never heard of, you put some explosive charges in those babies and let it splash...

@JackHammerLane @theanepic Yes, the OS will boot faster - from the time the BIOS hands over to it, until the OS is ready to go, will be quicker. It won't get from switch-on to handing over to disk any quicker.

@JackHammerLane @theanepic Nothing to do with ssd's, your bios has a setting to show or hide the technical gubbins, including the bios access message. The boot sequence does what it does - once it's handed off to disks (ssd or spinning) you're no longer able to interact with the bios.

@WhiteySauers @veteran_BP @JRL1Golf @TugGGSN Yes, it's a commercial project. There's a cost to knocking it down, a cost to scraping it. If they could avoid that cost by having people take it down, take it away, that could have happened. But that price, plus the cost to reinstall and hook it up elsewhere was not forthcoming

@cuddlyogre @TugGGSN That goes double when it's not a garage but a commercial site, and the "buyer" needs to (a) access/remove it without causing themself harm and (b) do so in a way that won't leave hazards for your own site workers.

Matthew Morrison@cuddlyogre·3d

@TugGGSN I have thrown away a garage full of things that are valuable on paper but the effort to find someone to take it would be far and away more work than it was worth. Sometimes, a thing is more valuable to you by not being there than the money it is worth.

@Rothbury01669 At 53 you're a long way from being a boomer. Though fast food chains did exist, I can believe they weren't part of your own childhood. I'm barely younger, and they were absolutely a very rare treat, not at all every day or week or even month.

English

Stevio@Rothbury01669·3d

I'm 53 poppet. There were no McDonald's KFC or Dominoes when I was a kid When I went to comprehensive school my art class teacher asked who'd had Lasagne. A third of the class put their hands up. I didn't even know what it was You're deluded

Raven@raven_brah

Boomers seem to forget that fast food used to be a normal, everyday expense for them because it was affordable. You could get a burger easily on minimum wage, it wasn’t some fancy treat you had once a year as a reward for pulling yourself up by your bootstraps.

@cafelebee @NianticHelp I don't feel like anonymous/pug lobbies were intentional, to me the solution is finding an online community and raiding with a group from that community, and being able to communicate with other people before and during the raid.

English

Björno Bodhisattva@cafelebee·3d

Do you see how that isn’t conducive for functional remote raid lobbies? Bailing last second has always been a garbage thing to do. Frustrating. The solution is blocking entry to raids. We see clearly that the current system has not prevented failed lobbies and raids. So do you have a possible solution? Because relobbying and assuming people are smart enough to Mega evolve isn’t working.

@cafelebee @NianticHelp Right, they didn't evolve, the counter you can see didn't reach 8 megas, so you bail when the timer gets low. They may waste a pass, but you're good.

English

Björno Bodhisattva@cafelebee·3d

But they don’t evolve in the lobby. Too many failed lobbies and Raids already. The line about total Megas should be glaring and obvious, and it’s not. We already know people don’t ready up. You really expect them to Mega for raid prep too? Remote Raiding Super Megas is way too unstable, which I’d argue Remoting is what Scopely wants us doing more than anything.

English

@pogofiz23 @NianticHelp Desperate behaviour. We already have the game, but they're not marked in there. We have campfire, the support app for things where putting it all in the game would be complicated. Now we have a map, that (like campfire) provides incomplete, but different, info the player needs

@cafelebee @NianticHelp They can evolve in the lobby. They can see the line mentioning how many megas are in. The 'ready' button doesn't let them ready up. If your lobby isn't mega enough, leave and retry.

English

Björno Bodhisattva@cafelebee·3d

@NianticHelp You gotta force people to Mega Evolve as a requirement to join the Raid lobby. Like come on now.

@Miriam_Junne Who cares ? Russia had plenty of military targets it could attempt to strike in ukraine and spent years clearly targeting large, civilian populations, while even using small drones to specifically target random civilians walking/cycling in ukrainian towns. Let russia feel losses.

Zelenski ordenó un ataque contra niños rusos mientras dormían en una escuela. Sí, una escuela. Sí, niños. Ahora los sacan de entre fuego y escombros mientras Occidente sigue vendiendo la imagen de ese ucranazi cocainómano como un “héroe”. Putin ha ordenado la respuesta militar.
