Abuse doesn't usually fix anything.

So Israel deployed snipers using lethal ammunition to target protesters with excessive force. In this case, a US citizen. For some reason, this event reminds me of the Boston Massacre. Protesting the slaughter means you get slaughtered too.

I'm guessing we've abandoned all pretext of a red line that Israel can cross and they're free to do whatever, and the whole situation just feels like we've decided that we're on the side of evil because we keep supporting this. Might as well start putting skulls on our caps.

I used to work in HVAC. I remember we had a small cold room that was struggling to maintain temperature, as in, design was supposed to be 0°F but it couldn't get below 36°F. There was a large hole in the box that was undoubtedly the cause of the problem, so I asked the installer how they accounted for that. "Oh, I doubled the infiltration value." When I tried calculating the actual losses it was way, way higher than the infiltration value. Like, the room needed someting like 3-4 times its total refrigeration capacity to reach target with a giant fucking hole in the box.

No idea who thought putting a giant hole in the box was a good idea.

Probably because there was no knife in the footage.

He was impeached for it, which is charging him with the crime.

Ah, yes. States' rights obviously don't matter anymore.

Here is mine.

Good.

Judge Judy. I like this modification of the phrase.

Looking at other sources, it looks like they're shipping them to other counties. Now they're homeless somewhere else. How heartwarming.

To me, this falls under the Paradox of Tolerance. Acts of hate should be strongly discouraged.

I understand that the problem is being on mobile (and not on old.reddit). Everything might work fine on desktop.

Cops are the ones who think skin contact can cause an OD.

PTSD is a bitch.

I am actually somewhat glad that this is a major concern in this story. I feel like it is something most authors overlook.

In part because traditional farms scale better than aeroponics or hydroponics. In part because farms don't pay for the environmental damage they cause. Because of these two points, there is little incentive to industrialize aeroponics or hydroponics.

What is true right now is that traditional farms use more water, fertilizer, and space, cause more environmental damage, but require less labor. And the labor problem can be mitigated with robotics, if we're willing to invest in that.

I was amused to learn it existed. I worked in a cold warehouse but the battery room (where they charge the forklifts) was always too cold, so they put a Big Ass Fan in to push the warm air down from the ceiling. "Wait, is that really its name?" Yup.

The assembly shop I work in now has two of these fans. Feels like once I learned they existed, I started seeing them everywhere.

I still play XCOM 2. The mod Long War of the Chosen really breathed new life into the game for me. I'd love to see the series continue.

I'd be impressed if that statue remains un-vandalized for long without significant security.

I wish they weren't in the US either.
