  • I believe two reasons: first, political will. Fossil fuel companies are large and entrenched, and have lots of experience lobbying governments. They block things like carbon taxes.

    Second, a strange sort of game theory where each player (each country) thinks "My individual contributions to greenhouse gasses are just a small part of the total. They won't cause global catastrophe. Just an incremental increase in the existing catastrophe. The incremental harm won't fall directly on me; it will be divided among many countries. If continuing to use fossil fuels provides some small economic advantage, it outweighs the portion of the harms that will land on me. As for the harms I experience from other countries' carbon emissions, there's nothing I can do to prevent them."

  • The atmega328 and stm32f411 are good. Both are well documented, have boards available with good peripherals, and plenty of other hobbyist projects on them.

    The atmega328 is 8-bit. It was made by Atmel, which was a great company until they got bought by Microchip a decade ago. Their IDE sucks now, but you can still program them with other tools and IDEs.

    The stm32f411 is 32-bit, a bit more recent, and a bit more expensive. ST microelectronics has great documentation and hobbyist support.

    These are microcontrollers, so you'll be running without an operating system. If you want embedded Linux, you'll need something with an MMU and more power than a microcontroller.

  • The EPA definition would exclude chemicals like trifluoroethanol, so the EPA's definition is narrower, not broader.

    From a strict organic chemistry perspective, trifluoroethanol contains a perfluorinated methyl group, and methyl is a type of alkyl, therefore it must be considered a PerFluoro Alkyl Substance.

  • Medusa is apparently so ugly that looking at her turns you to stone. And she's ugly because her hair is snakes.

    But what if I like snakes? Can I feed the snek a cricket I caught earlier in the dungeon?

  • Windows 98 had god usability. The buttons and controls all had borders, so you could know where they are. In Windows 11, everything is flat, nothing has a border, so you can never know where the interactive area is.

  • Steam's explanation is below.

    I suspect the game was just too gorey. Note that the game isn't out yet, and I saw no indication that the authors of the article had played or seen it.

    After review, we will not be able to ship your game HORSES on Steam. While we strive to ship most titles submitted to us, we found that this title features themes, imagery, or descriptions that we won’t distribute. Regardless of a developer’s intentions with their product, we will not distribute content that appears, in our judgment, to depict sexual conduct involving a minor. While every product submitted is unique, if your product features this representation—even in a subtle way that could be defined as a ‘grey area’—it will be rejected by Steam. For instance, setting your game in a high school but declaring your characters are of legal age would fall into that category and be banned. This app has been banned and cannot be reused. Re-submissions of this app, even with modifications, will not be accepted.

  • But it was what he said next that alarmed some Jewish leaders: He chastised the synagogue, saying through his spokeswoman that “these sacred spaces should not be used to promote activities in violation of international law.”

    Oooh, how controversial of Mamdani! /s

    Nytimes needs to stop passing off shit opinions as fact. This bullshit article isn't even marked as opinion, yet here they go injecting their pro-genocide opinions into it anyway.

  • Try to get as much as possible off Windows. You can transfer the remaining Windows-only programs to a virtual machine in snapshot mode, or if necessary, a real machine with a backed up image, that you can reimage regularly.

    Not everyone can get off Windows. But get as much as you can. Isolate what's left.

  • China's carbon dioxide emissions are more than a third of the world's total emissions. Their CO2 emissions are increasing and accelerating.

    No matter how much they subsidize solar, unless they implement a carbon emission tax, the emissions will keep increasing.

  • I feel like we should be normalizing $1, $2, and $5 coins at this point. I know $1 coins exist, but nobody uses them. If I drop a $1 coin in a tip jar, people say sarcastically "thanks, that 25 cents will go a long way" because they think it's a quarter.

  • Abolishing the USD cent comes way too late.

    Was abolishing the half penny in 1857 a good idea? If so, then abolishing the quarter would be a good idea today. It has about as much buying power as the half penny did in 1857.
