Does this induce a current?

Is this his house?

Can’t it be addressed with any regular, properly practiced sport, which many people don’t do over 30? Lifting seems like effort without the fun of a game.

Depending on the country no ID number may be necessary. Not required for France.

The fact that we can’t see his left fin is a strong indicator.

It is still getting hugged, I guess people are rushing to add their names now that it is a won battle.

When your family is so brilliant they die from it.

I have been using Deezer because it was local for me, France. At the beginning you could upload your own collection to share with others, it was fun. Now it’s basically the same as the others, I think it pays artists a little bit more than Spotify. Also just learned that it is now majorly owned by some US investment fund. 🫠 At least it’s not directly funding terminators yet?

Reverse Saruman, the money he donated made him look white.

I was surprised so I did the computation just to resolve the disk of Betelgeuse at 550 nm, and I found a telescope of 2.8 m, that’s definitely already doable. We already have 8 m in one piece and 10 m segmented, JWST is 6.5 m segmented. The ELT is planned to be 39 m for 2028. So this star is closer and bigger than I thought.

And these are the images we have from one of the top imaging instrument SPHERE on the VLT in 2019. It’s precise enough to show the change of shape due to its variable star type.

It would be the size of the telescope’s diffraction artifacts probably. Meaning the shape you see on the picture is not related to the size of the star but only to the physical limits of the optical instrument. This diffraction pattern is proportional to the color your looking at and inversely proportional to the size of the telescope primary mirror. The bigger the telescope primary mirror, the smaller the diffraction pattern and the more chance you have that this artifact will not completely hide the object you are looking at. I didn’t do the math, but I guess to image the actual disk of Betelgeuse, the size of the telescope you need is probably still science fiction, even with interferometry.

As you can see, I said “reputation”. I hate how little they innovate while still selling at premium, but similar to Disney, it is enough for the casual mass.

The fact that the Nintendos are locked down, family friendly and with a reputation of good production quality (similar to Disney), are also important points for non-nerdy parents and casual gamers who don’t want to navigate the ocean of PC gaming and its risks.

The first step toward meaningful change begins with us. We must abandon our craving for glossy (and therefore glassy) devices, and instead embrace hardware that may not be as immediately pleasing to the eye (as it is the case with e.g. Fairphones or the PinePhone), but is built to be slightly more durable, somewhat repairable, and capable of outlasting even today’s limited commitments to software updates.

Fairphone and PinePhone being only mentioned anecdotally for being too pretty, and I guess not as sturdy as the author wants, is quite weird for an article about reducing fragility and improving repairability.

I take the expression more as a warning to control it so it does not impact my mental health too much. Getting (properly) informed is good, but if I get so depressed that I can’t act positively on the system anymore or I make it worse for me and others, then it becomes counter-productive.
