Content mill runs rage content all day too. Unfortunately those get eyes and thus revenue. More a comment on us as a species than anything else.
On an individual to individual basis we might recognize bad content meant to feed off of our base emotional instincts versus content meant for accuracy and to inform.
However collectively it appears there's more of us that rather get sucked into the rage content than try for objective or accurate reporting.
This mirrors the transition of television News from not needed to be profitable to needing to be profitable. Look at the success of cable news.
Because feeling hungry stops when you eat? Presumably your body was taught this when you were a child.
An unconscious zombie might eat but it would be eating human brains. Generally Cannibalism, especially of neural tissue, can lead to prion disease.
The part that separates us from the animals as far as I am aware is language.
Here are people that were not raised by humans, they seem to have an inability to adapt to human society if they develop past a certain age without reintegration with humans:
Feelings (emotions not sensory like touch or sight) are experienced are they not? Not the other way around. As in you observe your feelings; not you tell yourself what to feel.
I wish instead of just waving a wand around saying 'because physics' the author would bother to explain more clearly what their problem with physics here is.
Then what about everyone else trying to get in through the Mexican border?
"Now, folks like the guy in this story are not “refugees” by the technical definition; . They’re either asylum-seekers, which is a technically different thing, or they’re people who just try to move to escape a bad situation back home. But to me this is a distinction without a difference; "
So can be said for a lot of people wanting to come to the U.S. to make a living.
Personally making immigration affordable and efficient to meet the demand is a possible direction we could go (I think it would reduce harm) but that isn't the one we've gone down so far.
So if your peers have a nice fat ass that the boys all like to oggle at while walking between classes and you're stuck with a skinny thigh gapping flapjack white girl tush you bet your ass you're gonna start eating some cheese berders.
The feeling of wanting to fit in is constant for teens. What 'fitting in' looks like changes over time.
What's desired has changed over time in my life alone. Booty is a great example. I grew up with mostly white women in media shaming themselves and asking if their dress made their ass look fat while also trying to get boob implants.
Nowadays booty is WAAAAY more prominent and desired and those old tired jokes about their ass looking fat a hell of a lot less common.
I'm just saying how it is in the U.S. in practice.
Regardless ending nuclear power in Germany is a popular enough position that Merkel was re-elected. Probably not just on that issue but she listened to what her people wanted and she kept getting elected because of it (as far as I know; I'm not German).
Um fusion being close to being viable, which your link is supporting, doesn't mean it's close enough to help us this century with regarding climate change (which is what your link is about), which isn't what I said it would do. I apologize if I worded it a way that you felt implied that.
South Korea I understand is investing heavily here[1]. If I'm not mistaken so is China. Too bad we (Western society) can't work with Iran on this as well.
However, please consider when we talk about changing our sources of energy over, that what will work has to work within costs and regulatory conditions.
If I'm not mistaken it can take around 20 years for an experienced nuclear capable nation to get a reactor up and running from initial phase of saying yes you can build a reactor.
Solar is outpacing that.[2]
Which your link also supports.
"The pattern of power supply is changing. The massive take-up of solar power by households means we have now permanently shifted from the old model of large power stations to one where supply is distributed around the network. "
Fission (by itself) is not solving climate change this century either.
Additionally I think fission powered cargo ships would be a great option to reduce carbon emissions too. Since the U.S. Navy is very experienced with nuclear powered vessels and Russia has that nuclear powered icebreaker, I think it's technology possible.
Unfortunately setting up a regularity system for that is likely completely unrealistic though I'm happy to be wrong here.
Note they are attributing some of the increase to the higher than average/normal price for energy since Ukraine war started.
"The electric company defended the increase, saying they cushioned the much more expensive purchasing costs for customers for an above-average period of time during the energy crisis but had to secure future amounts of energy for customers at high prices on the wholesale markets last year."
Okay but how are we supposed to get teen girls not to compare themselves to the looks of global stars?
This existed before social media. At best I can see it being a catalyst here and so sure limit or ban social media (at least for under 18s ~ 25s, whatever we agree on is a developed adult brain).
Lowering the percentage of teens with mental health issues is a good thing.
However that doesn't stop teens from comparing their looks to their peers, adults they know, and obviously global media (magazines, billboards, films, music, etc; what 'successful' women look like on cable news). How are the underlying cause for these negative feelings going to be addressed?
So the onboard video worked from the get go and then things got messy after you installed the Nvidia card?
You're not being very clear here what happened and if you're only using free software sources (the default for Debian I believe).
Also looks like you replied further down. You're not even describing an average home user case but saying it's a massive assumption that average users will have an easy time installing Linux. Lol.
Remember I was comparing the ease of installing a Linux system and having it functional is a hell of a lot smoother than Windows. That's just true in general. No assumption needed.
There's other distros that have rolling releases that tend to have more updated software in exchange for stability and thorough testing.
A. What you are describing here isn't illegal activity. You're describing the State determining that Apple incorrectly reported where the sales tax should go (no one is saying deliberately). Now the state is trying to remedy this.
B. From what I was gathering there's been a change in law regarding online sale tax in 2019 or so. Fair enough for the State to take a couple of years to audit and find compliance.
Doesn't really seem to be malicious actions between Apple and the city.
Additionally Apple is free to apeal here and say they did report their sales tax correctly.
