What do you define as late millennial? Because as someone born toward the tail end of the millennials I feel like while I didn’t personally watch it on tv I heard about it a ton and then as an adult I did a binge watch of it

This is what happens whenthere is no headphone port people are selfish pricks

FTFY

My interpretation of the post was less about the quality of phone speakers and more about disturbing the peace of public spaces

It covers shared experiences decently well. Like obviously there is overlap but in the U.S. as a whole most millennials were kids who have a memory of a pre 9/11 world. Most zoomers grew up with WiFi being common in their houses. Most Gen Xers have memories of being a child near the end of the Cold War and were in the work force before Internet was common. Most boomers either served in the Vietnam war or have a memory of someone close to them going off to fight in an unpopular war.

A lot of those experiences have lasting effects in how those generations behave. It doesn’t mean everyone is the same but instead that you can follow trends that are more true for each generation

Then there is also the advantage of tracking a groups shared experiences like for example many millennials were relatively unaffected by the dotcom bubble but for the 2008 recession they were hit much harder

It’s both, weight starts to become a bigger deal when you factor in that you have to keep it in the air for thousands of km. If airlines could charge people by weight they would in a heartbeat

People do end up living out of the capsule hotels, it’s not common but it’s a step above being homeless

I usually flash my high beams first as a more gentle “look up” and then do the horn if they don’t notice that one

There isn’t really any reason to enrich to 60% if you aren’t going for weapons grade, 20% HALEU fuel is the highest breakeven I know of where the benefit to enrich to 20% can in certain reactors outweigh the cost of enrichment but even then 20% is considered uncommonly high for most power plants 60% is just another beast with a hugely added cost

This was the article talking about IAEA finding particles at over 83%

They are over 83% at this point

My understanding is it’s less a type of ice cream and more a source of dairy

A lot of us look at lemmy on our phones. But if you want to give credit to the OP why not post the picture and then just drop the link to where you got it from?

Which is why it doesn’t search within an instant and it uses a bunch of energy and needs to rely on evaporative cooling to stop overheating the servers

Computers for all intents are purposes have perfect recall so since it was trained on a large data set it would have much better intelligence. But in reality what we consider intelligence is extrapolating from existing knowledge which is what “AI” has shown to be pretty shit at

And how do you keep the wood from being exposed to moisture without petroleum derivatives? Like technically it is possible but to build enough homes to that standard for even 1/1000 of the population is unreasonable

We also cover wood in hydrocarbons to stop it from being broken down, if a bacteria can break down long hydrocarbon chains we are kind of fucked

That charity doesn’t pay him a salary, the worst you could say it does is pay for hotels/airfare/food (that I am not even sure if the gates foundation does for him) but even if it did it would be a fraction of the money like when I say a fraction I mean less than 0.0001% so like paying a tax rate of 99.9999%. You keep talking about PR but what is the PR for? Because again you could get much better PR for an absolute fraction of the price.

Like for the same reason no billionaires should exist because a billion dollars is unfathomable a billion dollars could pay for so much stuff that funneling it through a legit charity is just not worth it.

I have personally got a grant approved by the gates foundation to help fund clean water in El Salvador which is why I am taking this somewhat personally. Like you can talk shit about bill gates but there is no way that he is just as bad as other billionaires like musk

He isnt doing it for the tax break… like think about that logically if he normally spends 10m a year then he pays taxes on that 10m if he sells 100B of stock and donates it he doesn’t have to pay taxes on the amount he donates but still is out the 100B.

There are degrees of evil, a person who spits on a person is not as bad as someone who kills a person. A billionaire who feels bad as he ages and tries to give that money to charity is not as bad as someone using that money to fund Nazi groups.

Like I am not saying spitting on people is okay but to lump someone who spits on people with someone who kills a persons as “no better than the others” is wrong and if anything we should be encouraging more billionaires to donate their money as it’s at least better than them hoarding it

As long as nuclear is required to be 1000x safer (not even hyperbole) than fossil fuels it will be expensive to run and the cost of nuclear for running home electricity is more than the average person wants to spend. So it wasn’t really going to replace a lot of other uses of oil anyway

It’s a chance for you to explain what you were doing. If you spent that time taking time off between jobs because a job fell through, you got laid off, you quit spontaneously, etc those are all very rational things that an employer may want to know.

It’s up there with innocent questions like “where did you work before here”, and “do you have reliable transportation “
