I mean, it’s about as permanent as you can get within the US’s political system. It’s not really up for “interpretation” like Roe v. Wade, it’s literally just “the State Constitution has changed so this law is now unconstitutional”. If a future judge(s) were to overrule this, it would be blatantly and objectively partisan, which is a much bigger deal with state courts than it is Federal ones

Yeah. It turns out that the “Alpha” and “Omega” wolves are just… The parents of the pack. It’s got nothing to do with the Alpha being macho or assertive or anything like how it’s been portrayed for decades.

The researcher who first published his faulty observations has been trying to correct the public consciousness for years, but it’s really hard to undo something that was taught so widely

Ive never had to download a codec to use VLC, it should come built-in with every codec you may reasonably encounter on commercial DVDs.

If you take something to block your body’s natural production of hormones and don’t take anything to replace them, you will eventually develop osteoporosis, which is very much not fun.

Is “prior art” not still a thing?

I’m in the same boat as you, I can’t deal with greasy hands. So in the winter, I put on a good amount of O’Keefs Working Hands right before I go to sleep for the night. The sticky lotion feeling doesn’t bother me when I’m falling asleep since I’m not using my hands for anything, and by the morning my hands are a lot less dry and the stickiness is gone.

Asus has always been a solid brand in my experience. I would recommend anything Ryzen-based, since they’re definitely in the lead over Intel right now, but anything with at least 4 cores that can run at at least 4.0GHz will be fine.

Minecraft servers can eat up a ton of RAM, so I would focus on that first. 32GB minimum, maybe 64. Should also preferably have an M.2 SSD, but anything non-mechanical is fine. Other than that, there isn’t much spec-wise you need to worry about.

I have the same problem with CloudFlare’s 1.1.1.1. Are the two services related? I also remember the same issue going on with archive.is

That tells me you’re either a cishet, white, male, or you’re woefully uneducated and selfish. You’re totally in favor of development crunch too, aren’t you?

Ban evasion so you can continue your triad against another user for their completely innocuous post definitely justifies a permanent ban from that single community.

I agree with that other user, go touch grass. You can use that time to do a lot more for animal rights than arguing with random Lemmy users ever will.

Did you even read the article? DEI is about hiring practices, not game content.

I think this is one of the few uses for generative AI I can get behind, assuming it’s accuracy is better than YouTube’s auto generated subtitles.

It boils down to chemistry. The nickle-metal-hydride chemistry used in rechargeable batteries just don’t produce 1.5V (explaining why is a lot more complicated), while the alkaline chemistry in non-rechargable batteries produces slightly more volts.In the same vein, lithium-ion batteries produce around 3.6V, while lead-acid produce about 12.4V.

To answer your other question, they should be able to power most things that aren’t an analog clock (which might run slightly slow).

God damn, that looks terrible. It’s not just a treadmill, it’s basically a stairlift that prisoners and slaves were forced to use. And anyone who’s used a stairlift knows how brutal of a workout they are.

Damn, what field are you working in that has that much flexibility? That’s pretty unheard of, at least in the US.

This website is great for finding weird Unicode characters, it’s pretty accurate in my experience:

It sounds like they literally can’t refund people because the company completely ran out of money and is gonna be liquidated. Sucky situation for all parties involved.

Trump is currently besties with the owner of the largest space launch company in the USA. I’m sure that NASA will be fine as long as they don’t stop contracting out to SpaceX.

PS5 runs an x64 AMD CPU and GPU, meaning it really shouldn’t take much to emulate. Modern game systems are just customized desktop PCs, unlike systems like the PS3 which had very specialized hardware that’s notoriously difficult to emulate

I don’t know anything about the production of that movie, but taking episodes of a canceled TV series and making them into a crappy sequel movie has definitely happened before (see Disney’s Atlantis 2, which was literally just the first three episodes of the scrapped TV series squished together into an incoherent hour and a half montage)
