I want him, and all politicians, to be pressed on telling Americans how they're going to do these things. Tell Americans in no uncertain terms how their policies will impact them.
I 100% agree with you there.
I'm just concerned about getting distracted by the "or else" part of his statement when his real intention is getting rid of the agencies.
Let me rephrase. He is saying "Get rid of these agencies or I'm going to fuck you with all of the power they give me."
My point is that the details of how he fucks you is not as important as the fact that he is going to.
Before everyone starts jumping to conclusions I just want to start by saying Desantis is a toxic douche who I do not and will never support. Please hear me out though.
The worst thing about federal agencies is that the President can control them with Executive Orders. In other words, power granted to these agencies is power granted to whomever the President is.
Getting rid of them does mean that we lose many regulations in the short term but it gives the power back to Congress and the states (yeah I know some states are going to do stupid shit and Congress is going to sit around with their thumbs up their asses and take forever to enact policy to replace it).
Long term getting rid of federal agencies could actually help protect us should another tyrannical President be elected.
If you want an example of why executive power is dangerous just look at what Trump and Ajit Pai did to internet regulation after the FCC was given control of the internet in the name of net neutrality.
It's a threat. He is saying if congress does not get rid of federal agencies he is going to use Executive Orders to try to force policy he knows will piss people off. I don't think the policy really matters at this point.
Most of the stuff on YT kids already feels like it’s AI generated. I can’t imagine what it’s going to turn into once they go full AI or what kind of damage it may cause.
Jeff Geerling has a pretty good summary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kF5pyVUQBH8
Ah, and much of that energy would be absorbed on the way in. So the additional energy absorbed on the way out depends on how the surface material changes the reflected light or later radiates the absorbed energy.
But you don't need to host your local OS in the cloud to run an application in the cloud.
Edit: clarification.
Cool so not only do you need to power your local device you also need to power servers and eat up loads of internet bandwidth. Super efficient.
All so they can force you to pay a monthly subscription.... Thank Gaben Valve is investing so much in Linux gaming.
I suppose but if you are reflecting it into greenhouse gases then the air temperatures go up instead.
The site says it’s an architecture journal so…
No, it’s not possible unless the heat is being transferred outside of Earth and that requires a ton of energy. Also Kyle Hill did a video where he did the math and the cube required would be over 30 km^3

Assuming it’s like the others then I believe they will treat it as an investment loss which allows them to take some percentage of the loss as a tax deduction.
I don’t know how the law works but suspect it makes an eventual return to any form of media unlikely.
3.4 billion people live in rural areas around the world. Areas where public transportation is not viable. I’m asking what you would do with them once you take away their only travel option.
Cloudflare yes. Even if you aren’t using tunnels it will help obfuscate your real ip. If you are hosting personal services you can also block access from countries you don’t expect to access them from.
Also it seems most bots scanning domains are checking www and the base domain url. I recommend pointing those at a vps or something like GitHub or substack if you don’t need it for something else.
Use a reverse proxy that 404s anything besides the subdomains you are actually using. Always use wildcard certs to avoid exposing subdomains and obfuscate your subdomains for common services to make them hard to guess.
Isolate your servers from the rest of your network with vlans if possible.
You will never be fully immune so all you can do is add more layers and roadblocks.
