One of the guys who invented the process for large scale production was Fritz Haber, to make explosives and chemical weapons. He’s also responsible for using chlorine gas on the battlefield in WW1. His wife was a chemist and an activist, who shot herself in the heart after learning about his involvement. Haber left within days for the Eastern Front to oversee gas release against the Russian Army.
He ended up saving more lives than he destroyed, but what a story.
Halfway reading the OP I was like “I’m about to get rickrolled”, relieved before opening the comments but got 'rolled either way. 5/7
When you put all the five year olds on earth in one room, every one of you would be able to compare two blocks, a rod and a ball. Depending on how you were thought you either pass the rod along or the ball. Then some very smart people came up with special ways to do very hard maths using those blocks.
Now, in the olden days they kept the way they thought those kids a secret. But we knew what the results were, so we could all do much harder math then we could do in our heads. So while the other adults knew how to pack you all closer together and needed new ways to do even harder math, there was a group of good people who didn’t really like all the secrecy and thought that they were doing it way to complicated but couldn’t do anything about it.
Like it always is, years went by and the world changed, they kept making up new rules on how the blocks should be passed around so it became slower. Those good people then decided we should be simplifying, to make it faster yet again! “And no more secrecy!” - They said. “So everyone can build their own mini five year old sweat shops and it would cost significantly less then it does now!”
Yeah heard many good things, mine could’ve been a fluke.
Spot on, G402 was the longest runner, but had issues on right and middle click. Steelseries rival didn’t last long at all.
Is it just me or does the middle click wear out more quickly than the others? Always figured they use a worse switch because they think people use them less. My last two failed the same way.
I’d be willing to pay that yearly fee for one game, just to have it on there and play when I want. Meanwhile I’ll be using my PSP, so good for handheld emulation.
They’ve also locked N64 and GBA behind an extra subscription model on the Switch. I’ve paid a month here and there for online support, I don’t want an entire year AND paying double to play one or two retro games.
Is this… loss?
You could start by downloading your Google data raw, much easier to explore your own data if it’s all on the same drive.
Exactly, folding phones have so many issues people very rarely buy a folding one again.
Yep. I kept baconreader installed with an API patch so when I click on a reddit link I didn’t have to interact with their horrible interface, earlier this week I clicked one and the app still worked, now it doesn’t. When I was switching being able to continue using my app was a godsend, now I won’t even bother with changing my User-Agent lmao.
I’d say living for eternity doesn’t imply being conscious for that time.
Edit: Eternal recurrence could be a fun thing to witness
Just please don’t look how our politicians have reacted to the Israeli conflict
Nah, the same reason why DJ’s can be good or bad. Guiding the vibe of the audience is what they do, playing with the tension and energy of the crowd. Pleasing a crowd is easier than one specific person though, but the same rules apply when picking songs for yourself.
I definitely get why, but people have been paranoid of interacting with bots, shills or astroturfers for as long as the internet exists. Calling someone either of these without asking to elaborate on their comment is just adding to the polarisation and intolerance of our platforms.
Often when I try to talk to people with wildly different opinions they just come back with those insults because “who can ever disagree with my opinion? They must be trolling.”
So I definitely blame people for jumping to the wrong conclusions.
Same, and I bought one over 6 years ago. Would buy again 11/10
Combining sound and food stimuli is classic pavlov conditioning. Cats learn very quickly if they make any sound that a human will react in a way, ie scratching a door for territory or meowing for food.
Scanned the img with my NFC reader, can now walk in Merc Headquarters! Thanks!
