I think this only makes a few weeks difference to the withdrawal of US military support. The deal Trump and Russia are putting together should not be thought of as an attempt to end the war, but the creation of a pretense for the withdrawal of support. The terms that will be offered to Ukraine will be completely, and intentionally, unacceptable to Ukraine and Europe. Ukraine will refuse and the US will name it as the justification for walking away.

Eh. He's a human being. I hadn't heard about his fleet.

It seems nearly impossible for a person to be billionaire loaded and not make some irresponsible purchases. Is there anyone with that kind of money we should be highlighting as a role model instead?
Heat pumps are fine at cooling. At least as good as an AC. Call up an HVAC company with experience in heat pumps, and I'm sure they'll have several options that will work in your climate.
I don't see the interest in who voted what on my stuff, but it could be interesting to do some analysis of system-wide voting behaviors. The bigger Lemmy gets the more of a problem it's going to have with bots. People will need to create tools to identify these bots, and voting behavior seems like the primary data source.
Yeah leaked data stays leaked. You can often find out what was leaked tho.
I imagine this looks a lot like what people in the cyber security sector do after a breach. Audit all the code, scan all the servers, monitor everything for several months. It's a ton of work and very expensive, but there are people with lots of real-world experience unhacking systems.
How many more memes until capitalism collapses? Roughly.
Started getting thin mid-thirties. The peak is mostly gone now at ~40, so I just buzz the whole thing at #1. My brother was like full on bald by the end of high school.
Life goes on.
There have been two court orders requiring that payments continue normally. It looks like Musk has decided that court orders do not bind him. It hasn't even been two weeks and already we're at the constitutional crisis?
I think the idea here is that, as Republicans have repeatedly demonstrated, the minority party can do a lot to simply break the government.
If the Democrats had the intestinal fortitude to be real resistance against an authoritarian takeover, they could start filibustering everything, and using every procedural trick to delay or block every Republican action until some set of demands are met. Perhaps removing Musk from every government system, or reinstating all of the DoJ personnel who have been retaliated against.
Here we see Democrats basically unanimously going along with the Republican agenda so that they can feel like "the adults in the room," rather than fighting for the life of our republic.
I appreciate the leeway to take a different approach here. I'm not generally impressed with studies where the issue is broken down into men do this thing X%, women do this thing Y%. And then everyone just fills in their own preferences as the preferences of their entire gender, and the shit flinging commences.
The key here is centering preferences as the target metric. For example, I found this slightly dated research from Pew
Which has a section titled, "How do parents feel about their time." To paraphrase, women are happier with the amount of childcare they do than men. Many men wish they were doing more childcare. But among the small number of parents who wish they did less childcare, there are over twice as many women.
I think getting those distributions to look more similar is a much better target, than trying to equalize the hour balance.

Exactly. This thread seems to be giant whoosh.
