I mean, he agreed with trump on big tech being bad... As a FOSS defender, I don't particularly mind.

If he had been agreeing with Trump on immigration, the economy, the law or hairstyle, it would be an actual issue but I don't mind this. I would have hoped for it to have been another president to take them on, naturally, but still.

A broken clock is right twice a day. It's time we remind republicans we are the side of reason, logic and science by only attacking them on legitimate issues, of which there no shortage whatsoever...

What policy is it?

I'm saddened by the amount of partisanism in the US these days. It's not because an idea is republican that it's bad, it's because these days, 99% of them are terrible and that most of them don't give a single flying fuck about science...

It might work still if some of the surface is still okay, but you should stop poking at it with sharp things...

Your examples are tame. There are already prison camps in El Salvador, house raids, disappearances, death of the rule of law...

This is actual fascism playbook™ stuff.

A sharp blade sounds like a terrible idea: the surface of the sensor needs to be optically flat, the sensor needs to SEE the surface it's used on... I wouldn't trust myself not to scratch it with a sharp object.

And the sensor I talked about?

I have two answers to give you.

  • Flamanville is a new generation of reactor that we are testing out after regretfully stopping the large-scale production of reactors in France. Therefore the welding sector had been lacking work for 20 years, many retiring. The same issue goes for many other highly-specialized skills in the field. Americans had to be brought in to fill in for these positions, at high cost. So the left hadn't been corrupted by Russia into being against nuclear power in the first place, Flamanville would like gone about as well as developing a fundamentally different design can. I will grant you, however, that this isn't the design I would have liked to see deployed: France used to be developing the Phoénix and SuperPhénix fast neutron reactors until protesters made them stop. These kinds of reactors are cleaner, more fuel-efficient (by several orders of magnitude!), some variants can even consume previous nuclear waste, although I don't think these two French designs could. These would have been wonderful to have access to. Russia and China have already developed these designs, in large parts with our researchers when they lost their jobs, and we'll eventually just buy them from them again. Nice plan.

  • What would you replace these with? Batteries? Once again? Coal? Renewables? How would you deal when, all over Europe, every winter, there are weeks on end with next to no wind nor sun? Should we create new mountain ranges and rivers to store more energy hydraulically? Shift demand? Nuclear is the worst system except for all the others.

Here is an example of a sensor:

It's the hole in the middle of the mouse.

I've never needed to clean one but others have suggested using a q-tip with isopropyl alcohol to clean it.

You may also wanna clean the glide pads (The rounded shiny parts at the top and bottom) so the mouse glides like new and doesn't "catch" on the table.

At framework, only the desktop and the 13 offer Ryzen AI options.

That said, my 16 is plenty powerful enough.

What do you mean? The cost of an old nuclear reactors' MWh is 40-50€, that's really competitive.

And unlike solar and wind, it produces anytime. As a French person, not only do I think we were right to build them in the first place, I'm annoyed we stopped in the 2000s after the Chernobyl scare campaign, it's safer than Germany's coal, which also produces radioactive waste and isn't properly regulated, unlike nuclear.
