I've been looking for a way to attach my Bose Einstein condensates together and it looks like I've finally found it.

One thing I find interesting about the fediverse is that it is so empty that you can occasionally see honest-to-God pro-NK propaganda. NK lost a quarter of a million people to starvation in the 1990's and are on a fast track to repeat the past. So glad you have access to the internet. Good for you.

I seem to have misplaced the world's tiniest violin. Sad.

When websites start blocking clients that don't implement the wei handshake, you'll be forced to use one that does if you want to visit those sites. Firefox will either adopt it or become a second rate browser.

The kiwi ones have little poppy(?) seeds in them mimicking the seeds in an actual kiwi. I'm not a fan.

Beyond just trying to maintain a reaction, we'll need a design that allows for the extraction of working energy. At present, all designs require tons of additional energy to keep them cool. We're very far from any design that is power positive in a real sense. Any time you ask one of the fusion fanboys about this there's a lot of hand waving, but I've never seen any actual proposals to extract working heat from the reactor. Any designs that require supercooling are especially problematic. It's really difficult to extract heat capable of turning a turbine through the supercooled magnetic containment.

Fusion will happen, but not before a whole lot more money and time (in decades) disappears into the money pit.

"This complicates our plans for a land bridge to Kaliningrad!"

I was at Buckingham Palace watching The Queen's ghost welcome a diplomatic party of chupacabras from Jalisco. I didn't even take my phone with me. I'm that stupid.

They settle out all of the heavier radioactive elements. They then dilute the remaining heavy water with additional water to drive the level of tritium to an acceptable level. It is then dumped into the ocean and rapidly mixes with the surrounding seawater. If you were to look at a map of ocean currents you'd see generally where it would go from there, but it doesn't really matter because tritium isn't really a significant concern. If they were dumping significant quantities of cobalt 60 you should care more, but they aren't, so you shouldn't.

I think you know what he meant, or are you claiming that the "someone" was part of a secret US military program and died in action?

The radioactive component is mostly tritium. As long as they get almost all of the heavy radioactive elements, the hydrogen isotopes are basically harmless in the quantities we're talking about here. The ocean is a very, very big place.

I do not know why they do not import more food

Food costs money and they've chosen to spend what money they have elsewhere. It is a matter of priorities. It's ok, they don't have to worry about being voted out of office over failing the public.

We should go back to this. I want to ride on a subway with everyone shouting "Meet hot singles in your area! Improve facial skin with one simple trick! Secret and confidential. Eyes only!"

His comedy was largely a stream of consciousness type of thing. I'm fairly sure that he only realized that some of the joke he told were stolen after they'd left his mouth. He wasn't the type of comedian who worked from a "tight 15" on a regular basis. It was more that he'd discover that an audience member was half German, half Japanese and would then go off on a spontaneous stream of WWII jokes about their ancestry.

WiFi will probably creep in at the lower end of that soon. We're only 2Ghz away!

Some number of these are bots making fake accounts look like legitimate users. Eventually they'll be making pro-China/Russia/Israel/Whatever comments on political videos.

There's a whole conspiracy regarding Covid that RFK Jr. is blathering about. Supposedly this data breach targeted Jews and Chinese folks. I'm assuming that it's related in some way, but it's not clear how.

The whalebone hoop-skirt industry would like to vociferously disagree!

It's going to be tough for some communities. Some of the Lemmy devs are literally avowed Communists and that is bound to cause friction.
