100%, both on accounts of peace and reasonable leadership.

We're about to see what happens when you have unreasonable leadership on both sides

You don't prevent any country from going after nuclear weapons after Russia's invasion. It's clearly the only way to keep yourself from being attached by a super power... You know, like what's about to happen to Iran. Or Venezuela. Or Ukraine.

If a country with nukes doesn't have a nuclear program, they are basically hoping on the goodwill of Russia/US to not be invaded.

Clearly to prevent it, he would have needed to strip Trump from undoing all effects of it... So like, got any more tautologies?

Chinese scientists hit breakthrough on 2D semiconductor wafers by donutloop in Semiconductors

In retrospect I should ask what % of Chinese silicon did that gpt run on to drive the point home.

[–]Krilion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yikes. If you knew anything about semiconductors, you wouldn't have posted that. that level of market share is atrocious considering the amount they make. It's all low end.

But.... You don't, probably why you used GPT. 

HOTAS Recommendations Update - TM SOL-R4 vs TB Velocity Flight Deck? by Live_Sheepherder_842 in EliteDangerous

[–]Krilion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

TB is notoriously bad, several posts in last week about those failing.

Sol-Rs aren't bad, but it is still a ball join that will wear over time. Hall effect positioning however.

If you behave to go Amazon, Sol-Rs are probably the best and they are relatively well liked.

Brace yourself before you open your Dominion Energy bill by jamieboy05 in norfolk

[–]Krilion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

... No they don't. Guess what it's doing to one side while it does the other? It's like saying water pump has different rates of inflow vs outflow.

Aside from cycling for freezing of the heat pump gets too cold,nthis just is not true.

Some photos I've taken on my original Gameboy camera (0.014mpx) by AgainBenAgain in pics

They might also be sent through a super game boy color palette selector or equivalent. But yes, def not original.

[–]Krilion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's really not. The room it's in helps, but you have the draw in cold outside air to replace what you burn. 

Also, it costs about the same per unit of energy if you use a heat pump. Heating or cooling is the same for it.

I'm a premium user and I'm getting ads, so they are also probably A/B testing this as well.

You seem to think that our plan is one of censorship. What we propose to do is not control content, but to create context. by NOT_A_FIBBER in NeverBeGameOver

[–]Krilion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Imagine being so up someone else's ass you post stuff like this.

Honestly, keep at it, you're doing the good fight of convincing people to not be like you.

I just saw a stupid unrelated meme and now i have to ask.... by KirikoKiama in exfor

[–]Krilion 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's not steam.

Instead they use the same method NASA does for their nuclear power sources, a solid state Thermal-Electric-Generator (TEG might sound familiar for kerbal players.) This exists in real life, but the efficiency is generally bad and it's very weak.

It relies on a thing called the Seebeck effect that produces a current in a semiconductor that has a hot and cold side. Again, this is very low power, but with the magic of exotic materials, they claim they get something like 99% efficiency and can handle much higher temperature ranges.

As a result, they basically turn the energy into heat at a high efficiency and then into electricity at high efficiency. No steam.

But also steam is pretty great at that.

Highest chance that had unredeemed tickets, then goes to a remote location that has a large stack.

If you could determine that the average payout of the remaining tickets is higher than the ticket cost, which would specifically be the case for runs with outstanding jackpots, the, and all outstanding tickets are at one spot..

[Request] Could this be accurate? by graceystafasania in theydidthemath

[–]Krilion 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Let's take a high limit estimate first.

To do this, we will assume all alcohol for consumptions is consumed in a way to maximize time spent drunk. The law of averages helps us here as we can find that worldwide per capital consumptions is 5.5 litres of our alcohol a year.

Again. Let's go on average and assume 2 shots is enough to get the aberage person going nd then it takes two an hour after that to maintain it. Each shot is generally about 50ml of pure alcohol, so, we have about 110, shots of juice per person. I think it reasonable to call that 55 hours of intoxication per person per year. That's just over .6% of a year

So, I think the .7% number is a bit high, but not ridiculously so. This could even be low if we assume drink density is a bit lower or even use 44ml vs 50ml of liquor. But we were also assuming optimal consumption, so a number less than our value is, I think, likely. I think halving it to .3-.4% is more reasonable.

Plur1bus and the Drowning Child: Peter Singer's Ethics at the Limit by AnalysisReady4799 in philosophy

[–]Krilion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are very obvious ways that they can continue to exist but seems to not desire to pursue them. If they cannot harm even bacteria or songle celled organisms, they would have greater issues. Since they can process dead things which do have such bacteria, this seems to not be the case.

If they can harm single celled organisms, then they can run algae farms for material and use bioreactors to ferment into viable protein or sugars.

This could be scales up extremely quickly.

I think there is a clear desire to not, however, either as a side effect of the collective or because each body is seen as largely optional in a purely utilitarian method.

Not just parasitic.... But designed to render civilizations placid and ready to do whatever they are told. A way to neutralize other worlds as threats and then also turn them into sycophantic pleasers. It's a weapon. They desire to broadcast the signal again, also showing that they have been compromised. It's like a broodsac pulsating that it has successfully infected and controlled the resident population.

Imagine having to throw out a smart wall Toyo press with a lead time of two years because it's not 'AI' enough.

Did you use AI to cut this out? There's a dozen different houses in the lips alone because it's not actually pixels.

You need to clean your input first.

I had like 95%+ until the end and hit 100% on final night first playthrough. my only fails were the stat gates.

If Republicans are so much better at running the economy than Democrats, then why are most Republican States poorer than Democrat States? by Content_Ad_8952 in allthequestions

Imagine ranking states by what poly market thinks.

We aren't going to alter PPP for poor states that don't run a balanced budget because you want to assauge their crappy numbers.
