US to build new nuclear gravity bomb
I got real excited to learn the physics of a nuclear gravity bomb.
We have gotten to the point in modernity where so many bombs are technologically guided we must define bombs which fall, and are guided by, the force of gravity.

Google said it was too hard to target ads to people
Google:
They've been asking us not to track them with cookies, so we're tracking them with fingerprints
Surely the gdpr has something to say about this. Or did the US forget the rest of the wold exists again?

‘Julian Assange is free’: Wikileaks founder freed in deal with US
Reply in thread
He didn't leak, he published.
That's what's so concerning about the case. The USA tried to persecute an Australian citizen working out of the EU for publishing information.
If precedent was set they could kidnap anyone from sovereign countries based on US law

Are we interpreting the humor as the absurdity of asking identity questions on a form for no reason OR silly trans, there be only two genders?
Up / down vote me respectively, I am curious how often these sort of posts appeal to all sides of the spectrum with different groups interpreting he humor.

Good news, apparently Australia does not like politicians who align themselves with fascists
Bad news, not a minority government

Just why
Sex work is real work.
Independent workers should be able to compete with larger corps under their own conditions.
Yay fediverse

What more need be said about it?
I have to be in the minority of sane people who enjoyed this book.
To be fair, I had no context and read the first 10 pages assuming it was satire. The rest of the experience was bizarre. In the first chapter the main character ignores the advice of the train employees and orders the train to run despite the signal being red. It's touted as taking responsibility when none else would. Utterly insane to me that someone who had been out of the area for decades, making management level decisions, would decide they know better than the worker on the ground who does the job daily. The contempt and arrogance leading to destruction - a great critique of management structure and survivor bias. How is it not satire?
Through the looking glass with a self important free capitalist narcissist, with almost no experience of the world and commerce outside their bubble, self hating tirade against perceived inability. Fascinating stuff

What's a great but uncommon comedy movie we should watch?
Very uncommon. Arguably one of the most disturbing comedy's ever made.
Meet the Feebles is a 1989 musical comedy produced and directed by The Lord of the Rings mastermind Peter Jackson. The film is set behind the scenes at a Muppet Show-like theatrical company, and it nods to The Muppet Movie with its story about raggedy puppet entertainers dreaming of making it big. Except in Meet the Feebles, most of the puppets are diseased, drug-addicted, and / or sexually perverse. Jackson, his partner Fran Walsh, and fellow New Zealand weirdos Danny Mulheron and Stephen Sinclair collaborated on a screenplay that weaves together about half a dozen subplots; the most prominent involves the talented hippopotamus Heidi, whose lover (and the troupe’s impresario) Bletch is cruelly dismissive and adulterous. As the Feebles prepare for the show that could be their big break, their personal problems start to spill over onstage.

How many?
Ignoring the joke.
A metric cup is 250 ml.
250 ml = 250 g (the density of water is intentionally 1.000 g / ml)
Water ~= 18 g/mol ( H 1.008 g/mol, O 16.something g/mol)
250 g / 18 g/mol = 13.8 mol
13.8 mol * 6 * 10^23 atoms/mol = 8.33 * 10^24 molecules of water
And there are two atoms of H in one molecule of water, so 1.66*10^25 atoms of hydrogen in a glass of water.
That's a lot

Missing out on something
Work all week, too tired to do something fun. Corporate profits unreasonably high and now I can't afford to engage in activities. Individualistic, nuclear family, isolation because communes reduce profits. Breathing poisoned air, drinking contaminated water, eating trash, refined food. Lost in a maze of suburbs, battling long transit times, alone in a sea of cars. Everyone's left for jobs, or busy working jobs, no time to meet new people.
What is, like, the point?
Do we sit in his emotional wasteland, producing for an other, alone and without the energy to do anything but work until we get sick and can't afford healthcare / are told by doctors the elderly are not their priority as they're no longer productive?

Anyone else who was blind-sided by the HECS/HELP interest rate changes?
I mean, indexation looks bad because its calculated once. But 7% once is way better than 5% compounded.
I do agree high school and societal messaging has been misleading. "Good debt", " When I studied it was free, is it not free anymore?"

there's laundry to do and a genocide to stop
That's an excellent call to action. Do your laundry and stop genocide. Look after your house and your global family.
