I think it’s kind of amusing how out of their depth Apple finds themselves in this era

The Long Trade YouTube video by Daniel McKeown

The Long Trade -- this video looks into the almost half decade of the longtrade.substack.com investing newsletter: tech giants, Bitcoin's ETF-ization, phantom recessions, green investments, and holding the market via index funds youtu.be/JikV30rR63o

Almost seems like ancient history now, but browsers hiding CSS grid under a feature flag for as long as it was at a critical time explains much of the slow adoption

Nuclear Power Boondoggle YouTube video by Daniel McKeown

For too long many have continued to repeat industry propaganda on nuclear power—but this video shows what a boondoggle the whole thing is, and why truly green alternatives like wind and solar are far more promising www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDNN...

After you said this, it’s not about systemd

Eliminating poverty (and the poverty mindset) would end public libraries so librarians actually have an incentive to keep people stupid and broke; do you think Andrew Carnegie was benevolently founding libraries while also murdering striking workers?

Libraries are disgusting temples of copyright worship. Being a library enthusiast implies a rigid, outdated, authoritarian mindset

Your husband is a loser with bad taste who must have been desperate

Libraries should apologize and pay back everyone who ever paid the regressive tax of late fees, and investigate the other ways they are screwing people

You lousy liar

systemd sucks

do you also love charging late fees? 📚💰

Neko Case is iconic for many things including amazing music but she also had possibly the greatest tweet of all time, back on that old platform:
“Wow. Ballard is gone.”

Such stupid brutality combined with cowardice; will no one speak for the birds?

Ok, here’s a Kamala Harris endorsement open.substack.com/pub/longtrad...

Despite the efforts of the operators at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant to maintain control, the reactor cores in units 1-3 overheated, the nuclear fuel melted and the three containment vessels were breached. Hydrogen was released from the reactor pressure vessels, leading to explosions inside the reactor buildings in units 1, 3&4 that damaged structures and equipment and injured personnel. Radionuclides were released from the plant to the atmosphere and were deposited on land and on the ocean. There were also direct releases into the sea. Venting of the containment was necessary to relieve pressure and prevent its failure. The operators were able to vent units 1 and 3 to reduce the pressure in the primary containment vessels. However, this resulted in radioactive releases to the environment. Even though the containment vents for units 1 and 3 were opened, the primary containment vessels for units 1 and 3 eventually failed. Containment venting for unit 2 was not successful, and the containment failed, resulting in radioactive releases. People within a radius of 20 km of the site and in other designated areas were evacuated, and those within a radius of 20-30 km were instructed to shelter before later being advised to voluntarily evacuate. Restrictions were placed on the distribution and consumption of food and the consumption of drinking water. Many people are still living outside the areas from which they were evacuated. --World Nuclear Association design: altaredwood.work
