I think it mostly comes down to increasingly unfair distribution of wealth, which leaves people with no hope to better their standards of living.
Our civilization creates things with constantly increasing productivity, which should lead to better pay and less time spent working, and more time to live a fulfilling life. Instead, all this added wealth is funneled towards a few mindbogglingly rich individuals.
This happens with the help of a sizable fraction of the population, which has become convinced that their mediocre situation is in fact caused by even poorer and more miserable people, rather than the assholes siphoning everything and everyone from the top of their already obscene piles of riches. And there's no sign of this changing anytime soon. No wonder people are desperate.
An even bigger problem is that wages have become disconnected from productivity.
I think it has to do with atmospheric diffusion of the sunlight. Even if the photons coming straight down at you are blocked by the moon, a lot of them bounce around in the atmosphere and end up reaching your eyes. Kinda like when it's not complete darkness at sunset even after the sun has gone over the horizon. Also explains why the sky is blue, since "blue photons" are better at bouncing around on the atmosphere molecules. See : diffuse sky radiation
Quoting form the Wikipedia article: Approximately 23% of direct incident radiation of total sunlight is removed from the direct solar beam by scattering into the atmosphere; of this amount (of incident radiation) about two-thirds ultimately reaches the earth as photon diffused skylight radiation.
Edit : probably mostly has to do with your eyes adapting to the luminosity and non linearity of light intensity perception by our eyes. See posts below about Weber-Fechner law of perception.
Edit Edit : This is an intersting read. The TLDR is it mostly has to do with our eyes slowly adapting to the amount of light they receive, and during totality, light bouncing from beyond the umbra comes into play.
You realize that the court is not saying no one else is to blame right? This case was brought on by 2000 swiss women, they are suing their own country for failing to take action as a way to force the hands of their government.
"Permission is Hereby Granted" always makes me sooo emotional
You should try DDG's "bangs" then. They are shortcuts you can type to narrow your search or use another search engine from DDG's interface.
!gm Singapore will search for Singapore directly in Google Maps
!w Singapore will search for the word in Wikipedia
!g will search in Google, etc.
Presenting to the emergency room with hyponatremia, from hypo meaning low, natron meaning sodium, and hemia meaning presence in blood. Low sodium presence in blood !
I've been using DuckDuckGo for a few years now, and I never went back to Google. Maybe give it a try !
Beware of Switzerland !
In passmark intel does indeed beat AMD (albeit at almost twice the needed power), but it's not so clear in other benchmarks, see for example : here or here.
Ultimately, it seems Intel 13900K or 14900K would probably give you a slight advantage, maybe about 5%, but that's only if you can cool it well enough that it doesn't have to throttle to prevent overheating, which might happen really fast if you want to put it in a case that would allow you to cary it around. The heat these cpus dissipate means that if you intend to run them at full throttle for long periods of time, you probably have to use a 360mm or 420 mm watercooling, or 2x240 mm but then you have to build your own loop. That won't fit in most SFF cases.
