What if companies lobbied and depositioned that oil consumption wasn't bad, greenhouse gasses don't matter, and that climate change wasn't real? All while having evidence to the contrary.

Like, a company does a thing. Turns out it was a bad thing, but - as an industry - lied under oath and paid money to have it all swept under the rug.
That's pretty damn bad.

AI companies seem to be marketing their thing as a bad thing, idiots drink the coolaid and make it a bad thing.

I think we are early enough in the adoption cycle before it becomes incumbent.
Whereas oil adoption was a miracle liquid/gas that absolutely moved humanity forward at the expense of the planet.
AI replaces humanity at the expense of the planet.

No immediate single idea.

I want to say a sleuce/overflow gate or valve of some sort.
Remote control and actuator in the top (or the control is in the separate cabinet you mention, and the modot is on top), with the vertical shaft down to the gate (or a protective cover around the shaft, cause that vertical pipe is massive if that is actually the shaft).

It does look like it has welded diagonal bracing between the pipe and the structure (as opposed to the u-bolt clamping that seems the initially intended methods), as if some rotational force has previously caused misalignment.

Might be some sort of sensor tube, and the "high voltage box" is just an enclosure for the control systems. Doesn't explain the added welded braces tho.

Any more pictures?

To the point that they occasionally have to use the solar panels to shade the radiators.
Thermals in space are difficult

Well, technically the suits would be running on ISS power via an umbilical until the airlock is depressurised. No point wasting suit batteries

Was it mini or micro usb, tho?

I dunno if you want a reply from a guy.
I am on meds that have some wild side effects, I know what they are and I can deal with them on small amounts.
At no point have I dealt with more than 2 of them at once.
At no point are they any where near anything you have described.
If they were, I would complain and hopefully change meds or change doctor.

You need to continue getting help.
You need to get medical help. Professional help. Not Fediverser.

Some of these may be "normal" (I dunno, I ain't a gal), but all together they are not. And they are affecting your life , so SOMETHING is wrong.
You have enough of a list (as well as enough conviction to argue against the popular comments)... Sounds like you have enough evidence and conviction to find a doctor that can actually help you.
Keep trying, keep working to get help.

Hypochondria is still a medical condition, it can still be treated.
But I don't believe (not a doctor) it actually transverses physical conditions like back pain and vomiting.
So maybe it's both? Mental health is still medical.

Seriously, don't give up of actual qualified medical help. Keep trying, keep going until you are happy.
This is key: keep going until you get the help you need

Like those NFTs that were just a link to a hosted service. It's not the ugly monkey that's encoded into a Blockchain, it's just the reference to the ugly monkey encoded into the Blockchain.

Nintendo physical carts are no longer actual games, just a licence dongle. Can't get the game anywhere? Well, can't play the game.

Yeh, Zod changed my typescript life.
Zod in the frontend, Zod in the backend, everything gets parsed, I get friendly error messages, and I get types for free.

Let me guess...

Users never read prompts, so we have removed them

Kinda like

Users never update, so we have forced that

150mm^2 obviously (tho only for 400A). Don't know that I've ever seen 800 amp powerlock, I guess they would be 240mm^2 and above.

I think they are talking about more industrial/commercial applications that use ceeforms or powerlock for 1 or 3 phase: 16A, 32A, 63A, 125A (I know, we were so close). Anything over that is powerlock, and I don't know if any single phase powerlock.

If I hadn't lived in America for 4 years (and my sister having to do a presentation on it), this last year would be the only time it has crossed my radar.

El Nino has (imo) always been an Americas thing. I don't think it has ever been significant enough to touch the news cycle in the UK.
And even now, I don't know if my awareness has picked it up due to the UK news cycle or due to the US-centralism of so many social media sites.

Like, I get that tariffs are the lever to reduce dependence on foreign wildfire smoke, but the US needs to bolster domestic supply before they try to reduce foreign imports.

 

I've been here a while, and I appreciate the community and the defed/hiding list.
I also know programming.dev contributes to upstream Lemmy repos.

I saw another post about another instances funding.
Which reminded me....

Is programming.dev on track for funding?
Need some more donations?
Is there a runway?
