  • Big? Sure. Biggest? No. Biggest was "the economy". It's practically a law of nature that inflation ends governments.

  • There's a profit angle in terms of keeping wages down, but there's also a competitive angle. Having a bigger talent pool to draw on means you get better talent, particularly when you're in the top spot in terms of pay, quality of life, professional achievement, etc.

  • That's a neat tool. But it's giving me a slightly confusing result. I have a solar installation and I've plugged in the details so far as I know them, just to see if I'm producing about what I "should" be. The peak production month is about right, but the minimal production month is only estimated to be like 25% less than that. My system has more like 50-60% drop, and some quick googling suggests that's about normal.

    Any thoughts on why this tool suggests a much smaller drop?

  • The media keeps talking about how they've learned their lesson about how to report on Trump; that they're not going to get spun up about all the noise he makes; that they're not going to let him switch the story every week; that they're going to focus on the real, material things that are going on.

    Well here we are again, writing deeply concerned pieces about a handful of tweets (or whatever they're called in Trump land). And here Lemmy is upvoting them.

    Trump is a troll. Don't feed the trolls.

  • This seems like a prime opportunity for an investor lawsuit

  • Let's hope this is the start of a trend of Trump's incompetence thwarting his objectives.

  • ChatGPT is usually wrong. We apologize for the inconvenience.

  • I just had a mini-revelation that this looks weird because the "pupil" is on the surface of the contact instead of under the lens of the eye. These aren't bad contacts; contacts are just bad like that. Seems that post processing is really the only option.

  • I don't think either PBS or NPR has been "bought" by anyone. They're both still non-profits owned by their member stations.

  • Why would this make PBS and NPR sad?

  • It becomes useless as evidence unless you can establish authenticity. It just makes audio recordings more in a class with text documents; perfectly fakeable, but admissible with the right supporting information. So I agree it's a change, but it's not the end of audio evidence, and it's a change in a direction which courts already have experience.

  • Has there ever been a repeat mass shooter? Is the risk of recidivism really the right theory for understanding the incarceration of mass shooters? Even if we broaden the question to whether juvenile mass shooters are likely to commit other crimes, is that even true?
