due to melting ice, opening new shipping routes

this is just sad

you’d wish, but the thing with drugs is “you” (the drugs in you) wanna continue even in poverty and homelessness

the pi’s serving me very well for now, load average at idle 0.01 and when doing stuff it hovers at around 50, temps under 40°C even under load and an extremely low noise level (not to mention the almost non-existent power draw)

if one day I decide to go full homelab with proxmox and stuff i might buy a dedicated tower but I don’t see the appeal atm

docker-ify everything, my nginx, nextcloud, pihole, jellyfin, and basically everything else is a nightmare and I can’t even begin to understand how to modify the shit that 2023 me did 2023 chatgpt spat out, so having everything in some neat docker composes is gonna help immensly

also making the Pi that everything’s hosted on boot of an SSD instead of a cheap chinese SD card, but that requires money and I’m all out

i hope the crash didn’t ruin the black boxes too much, usually on airport accidents it’s easier to investigate due to the whole wreckage being easily accessible (as opposed to sea crashes, where it could be under thousands on meters underwater) but if it’s that severe I’m worried they’re gonna find just a pile of scrap

we’re in the same boat, but it does the job and stays under 45°C even under load, so I’m not complaining

I say ‘calculated’ above because maybe this is the very situation they wanted to create so they could point to the mess and sway the public to look at vapers like disgusting pigs in order to pass even harsher laws.

good. quit smoking for fucks sake.

ICANN is pretty strict about this following some complications that happened back in the 90’s . No country, no country code, no domain. No matter who, no matter what.

I don’t wanna wait until the system catches up I need to hook up my laptop to the projector now, and all the cables are hdmi

What would be the utility for someone, who cares about privacy and currently uses Signal and email for communication?

Matrix is more like discord, no phone numbers, just email, and you can make big groups with different channels within. More meant for communities then something like Signal, that’s mostly for 1:1 conversation or small groups

What advantage would it give me over other services? Keeping the discord example i said above, no tracking, possibility to have end to end encryption, and open source code, along with the ability of having different instances that can communicate to each other, just like here on lemmy, so if you don’t trust anyone else you can run your own instance

Is Matrix anything good already, or is it something with potential that’s still fully in development?

It’s mostly good already, but as with many other privacy focused services it lacks a wide adoption, so most of the communities there are about privacy, Linux and that type of stuff.

How tech savvy does one need to be to use Matrix?

The most used client, Element, is IMO very easy to use, you can directly register through there, and you get the choice of choosing between the official matrix.org instance (which on certain occasions is laggy due to the many people using it), or other instances

although you gotta admit it’s gonna be funny seeing “Google Reactor” on killedbygoogle.com

I see you’ve removed your link, but before it was linking to a scam stream

more of a flood then a river /s

and in 10 years time, it’s gonna be 10 years away

Just use solar (and renewables in general, but not everybody has a river or wind), there’s no need to create more energy from fusion when you can just harness the energy created and shoved to us by the sun

The rain would quickly render it useless as an explosive, and if it was inside a container the metal would shield it

and even then, ammonium nitrate is just an oxidiser, (in layman’s terms, it makes already flammable stuff burn faster when ignited, so fast that in some cases it detonates), and without fuel it can’t do anything on it’s own

Ammonium nitrate isn’t dangerous.

It’s not gunpowder, it’s not rocket propellant, it’s not liquified natural gas

you need extreme heat and fuel to make it detonate, in the Beirut case that was given by nearby stored fireworks, but otherwise it’s pretty safe to use, you can blast it with a blowtorch and it doesn’t even burn

The misconception of it being explosive comes from the fact that people buy it as fertilizer and then use it to make bombs by mixing it with fuel and other primary and secondary explosives (or just to have some fun with homemade gunpowder), and even then, usually you use potassium nitrate, a derivative of ammonium nitrate, because the ammonium nitrate is just so goddamn hard to detonate

Now, should they accept the ship? I don’t know, as far as I know Russia’s regulations might as well allow storage of ammonium nitrate inside the ship’s fuel tanks, but some simple checks would mitigate 99.99999% of risks.

That said, it’s still Russia and we shouldn’t be giving it money anyways, but I’m not gonna get into politics here

the 3d printing part is only aesthetical, people have been taking their lifes by just using a bag or whatever else can contain the nitrogen from a tank

still scary AF

ok slightly unrelated but the satellite pictures have an insane resolution for having been taken from, you know, space

The pics

Just imagine what the government has if that’s what’s available commercially to the public
