This is not even remotely new.

They are the most entitled pricks walking.

I don't much go in for the mommy blog nonsense. My kids are vaccinated. We do enjoy many of the conveniences modern chemistry and industry have to offer, but some years ago when I was reading about BPA replacements we switched to all glass or bare metal food containers at home and a strong preference for brands that come in glass from the store(or preferably no package at all). Never once have I regretted the extra expense or prep work.

fuuuuuck....

Without getting into the weeds of arbitration—if you want to sue Valve for some reason, you now have to file in King county, Washington. This makes it too expensive to be worth it for any amount less than the cost of flying to and staying in Seattle for a lawsuit. Even if you're right and Valve is wrong.

Amazon recently did this too and it worked out well for them I guess, since other companies seem to have followed suit.

Some people are just determined to make it difficult to believe humanity is worth saving.

 

Semiconductors have already had a very profound effect on society, accelerating scientific research and driving greater connectivity. Future semiconductor hardware will open up new possibilities in quantum computing, artificial intelligence and edge computing, for applications such as cybersecurity and personalized healthcare. By nature of its ethos, open hardware provides opportunities for even greater collaboration and innovations across education, academic research and industry. Here we present Flex-RV, a 32-bit microprocessor based on an open RISC-V instruction set fabricated with indium gallium zinc oxide thin-film transistors on a flexible polyimide substrate, enabling an ultralow-cost bendable microprocessor. Flex-RV also integrates a programmable machine learning (ML) hardware accelerator inside the microprocessor and demonstrates new instructions to extend the RISC-V instruction set to run ML workloads. It is implemented, fabricated and demonstrated to operate at 60 kHz consuming less than 6 mW power. Its functionality when assembled onto a flexible printed circuit board is validated while executing programs under flat and tight bending conditions, achieving no worse than 4.3% performance variation on average. Flex-RV pioneers an era of sub-dollar open standard non-silicon 32-bit microprocessors and will democratize access to computing and unlock emerging applications in wearables, healthcare devices and smart packaging.

Not only did you not read the article, but you apparently don't know that much about TMI either. There are multiple reactors at TMI, the one that had the accident is not the one they're restarting.

The one they're restarting shut down a few years ago, along with several other nuclear plants, due to being too expensive to compete on cost with all the cheap gas post fracking boom.

Yes, for reasons passing understanding the state and federal government allowed existing, functional nuclear plants to close in favor of natural gas plants.

The kind that takes more than 2 months to 'complete'. From the perspective of the earth it makes a horseshoe shape. From the 'temporary moon' perspective it gets a trajectory adjustment on its solar orbit.

It's more like a gravity assist that takes 2 months to complete than an orbit.

This game was on track to be forgotten

Game is just outside the top 50 on steam and had a major content release at the end of June. This 'game is dying'-because-it-didn't-indefinitely-sustain-player-counts-in-the-top-10 meme is dumb as hell.

The number of people in this country that think you're allowed to murder other people for trespassing is insane. Guy should spend a very long time in jail, the absolute shit-for-brains asshole.

The woman who wasn't there and didn't shoot them?

As if that has ever mattered.
