So i checked it out. It is real and it is just the dude whispering in his microphone and making random noises out of the thing. I am skeptical, if it is actually a launcher and not a replica though, as it looks very much like a replica.

Ahh, i remember how my older brother locked down my internet access after midnight on behalf of my parents, boasting about having set up a MAC-address whitelist in the router some 15 years ago.
About a week later or so he proceeded to play Battlefield 3 on his early Samsung smartphone all night during summer holidays.

There also has been cases where people increasingly used cryptocurrencies as their national currency was subject to instability and severe inflation. Usually the governments cracked down on it hard, like in Turkiye.

It should also be bullshit in most if not all countries.
- Comment on "A guitarist who's also an astronaut" sounds more impressive than "An astronaut who plays the guitar", despite both meaning the same thing. 1 day ago:
That is the correct title. Thank you.

The first attribute in the list sets the framing.
Another example is:
Jeff is lazy, intelligent and charming.
Marc is charming intelligent and lazy.Your brain most likely will have a more positive impression of Marc than of Jeff, despite both being described with the exact same attributes.
Or what about this one:
Pay 20 dollars. Then you get to flip a coin. If it lands on heads you gain 100 dollars. If it lands on tails you get nothing.
You get to flip a coin. If it lands on heads you gain 80 dollars. If it lands on tails you have to pay 20 dollars.People will generally consider the first one to be better, because they could “win” more in the second step and “loose” nothing. The second one will probably be more averted because loosing could be “punished”.
If you think slow about it and run the math, both set ups have the same probabilities with the same earnings or losses.I highly recommend the book “thinking fast, thinking slow” that deals a lot with these biases.
- Comment on Lemmy is a tech literate echo chamber 2 days ago:
NGL, a lot of my relative tech literacy comes from just seeing all the programming posts too and getting curios.
Just the other day i learned that there is so called “snowflakes” that apprently work as a way to enter the tor network by pretending to be a video call. Crazy cool stuff some people come up with.
- Comment on Epstein puts my morality into perspective 2 days ago:
The uncle of the murdered Saudi journalist Jamal Kashoggi had extensive business dealings with Epstein and Israel and the current Saudi ruler MBS was a “friend” of Epstein according to Epstein. Kashoggi was murdered about 10 month prior to Epstein being murderes.
A lot of the evil of the world right now has been involved with Epstein in one way or another.

Imo. golf is the sport where it is the most absurd. It is made up so rich people can stand together, many meters away from anyone else to make shady deals. The entire game is just a McGuffin.

The anti-terror unit needs to fill its new vacancies first. Do you know ho many enforcers it takes to arrest a single man in a wheelchair?
- Comment on UK households could face VPN 'ban' after use skyrockets following Online Safety Bill 2 days ago:
In my English textbook, ca. 2007 there was a comic of a child in a cage hanging outside the house. The father told the neighbor something like “This way they get out of the house, without causing trouble.”
I think that hit quite well, what many consider parenting in the UK.
- Comment on [deleted] 4 days ago:
The US alone has a prison capacity of about 2 million people. It shouldn’t be too difficult to spread the suspects in prisons around the world. Maybe some people with non-violent offenses such as theft, drug possession or fraud would have to be released on suspended sentences a bit earlier to make space.
However Israel also has a quite large prison capacity. I would argue that the people who run places like Sde Teiman do not have their rights violated if they become inmates there themselves. After all they keep claiming that these facilities are not in violation of human rights.
- Comment on [deleted] 4 days ago:
Detained until it is established that they haven’t committed any crimes. Such is the normal procedure for suspects of murder and other serious crimes.
However there is also people who have refused service, so it is not strictly mandatory, but remains a choice.
- Comment on [deleted] 4 days ago:
I am saying that people who have committed or supported crimes need to be held responsible by law.
This has nothing to do with their religion or ethnicity. There is many Jews who want nothing to do with Israel or actively oppose its crimes. It is unfair, to lump them in with the genocidal criminals of the IDF and their supporters.
- Comment on [deleted] 4 days ago:
When this genocide is over, all Osrael supporter remain a danger to the world.
We will require an extensive Dezionification process, where the people are educated about the reality and faced with the horrors they commited and supported. In the meantime they must be kept away from any weapons or dangerous materials, must be kept away from amy position of responsibility or powet and must be kept away from any children and teenagers.
Furthermore we need a comprehensive process that identifies all settlers and IDF members and jails them until it is know which violent crimes they have committed and have been prosecuted properly if they have done so.

Netanyahu used French airspace, as France allowed him to. This is while France claimed it would recognise Palestine soon.
This should be taken into consideration with Macrons recent announcement.

Obviously someone in the BBC was salty that he didn’t get to write the article on Ozzies death, so he quickly edited it in the Wikipedia so he could claim the “first” bragging rights.

- Comment on When will we have reached enough productivity? 1 week ago:
A lot of the medical and psychological problems are caused by the “fixing” of other things.
- Comment on When will we have reached enough productivity? 1 week ago:
If the environmental damage was accurately priced in, it would be much more attractive to produce locally with local materials and with local knowledge.
It would be less “efficient” in the sense of what a production facility could do in terms of output/input at the gates of the facility, but it would be much more efficient in terms of the overall economy.

- Comment on Microsoft buys more than a billion dollars’ worth of excrement, including human poop, to clean up its AI mess — company will pump waste underground to offset AI carbon emissions 1 week ago:
In the EU recovering phosphor from wastewater could cover about one third of the EU countries total phosphor demands.
This is why the EU made tge strategic decision to have such recovery systems developed and built.
- Comment on Microsoft buys more than a billion dollars’ worth of excrement, including human poop, to clean up its AI mess — company will pump waste underground to offset AI carbon emissions 1 week ago:
Depends on how the wastewater would have been treated before.
Wastewater treatment does release CO2, however the sludge can be fermented to biogas. So in relative terms not that much. Also the sludge contains phosphate that could be recovered for fertilizing or chemical industry purposes.
It would probably be far more effective to build renewables with that money than to bury things for which a treatment process already exists.

Engineer here. We arent talking about directly tossing it on fields. We are talking about having it be anaerobically fermented at high temperatures for about 30 days, with the biogas captured and used for energy.
the new thing to do then is burn the remains and recover the phosphate from the ashes, where certainly no biological threat remains

12 megatons of dry carbon
en.wikipedia.org/…/Composition_of_the_human_body
Carbon is supposed to make up about 18.5% of the mass of a human body. So 60 megatons divided by 18.5% is 324 megatons.
