  1. I don't think Section 230 works the way you think it does.
  2. I did. The Russians appear to only be interested in supporting Trump's candidacy. Once he was no longer going to be president, they dropped Trump and the Whelan exchange like a hot potato. I suspect Trump didn't care about Whelan any more either.
  3. Well, the temperature is 150 million degrees Celsius inside a tokamak reactor, so .... In a fission reactor, the fuel itself is radioactive, as are the byproducts. In a fusion reactor, nothing is radioactive. It's just really hot.
  4. The two biggest engineering problems for fusion that I'm aware of are: * controlling the extreme magnetic fields necessary to keep the plasma away from the physical walls of the reactor * material science issues with the plasma eating away at the containment structure
  5. I think the best fit for an early adopter will be a state level entity like California. A state utility charging a flat rate monthly connection fee to cover maintenance.
  6. 20 years is a LOT of quarterly reports and bonuses.
  7. My man. Exxon and BP don't want fusion. They need scarcity and capex heavy extraction as barriers to entry for their business models to work.
  8. Other nerds are sharing the flight tracking code. Epic.
  9. 20 years, at least, to commercialization is the tough part.
  10. Elmo's also a lying hypocrite.
  11. Butthurt nerd silences critics while crying about free speech.
  12. Trump was getting played hard by the Russians. https://thehill.com/policy/international/3774311-ex-national-security-adviser-says-russians-were-willing-to-free-paul-whelan-under-trump/
  13. 'Call your legislator' is vastly more useful than 'complain about things that aren't illegal'.
  14. Flo has so many employees but cannot make the basics of their product work reliably.
  15. Still waiting for Republicans to give President Biden credit for plummeting gas prices and dropping inflation.
  16. Good luck trying to prove a criminal against Dorsey.
  17. Did someone say tongue?
  18. Here's a take on email filtering that might speak to you. https://www.electoral-vote.com/evp2022/Items/Dec13-3.html
  19. On the COVID front https://www.commonwealthfund.org/blog/2022/two-years-covid-vaccines-prevented-millions-deaths-hospitalizations
  20. I whole heartedly agree. I don't run social media on my phone. I don't bank on my phone. When I travel for wrestling, my phone is effectively a web browser with a few games and some pictures on it. When I used to travel for work, I'd bring a different clean phone with almost nothing on it. Assume your devices are 'made' and you'll be a lot less unhappy.
  21. You clearly haven't read the Mueller report.
  22. lol, no
