You sure you aren’t thinking of the FIFA Peace Prize?

Physical models use physics based simulations to predict wind paths.

Think PV=nRT, Navier Stokes, Finite Element Analysis-type stuff. A mix of fundamental physical equations and simplified engineering math based on historical data.

Different simulations use different assumptions in the underlying models so they give different output.

The catch is there’s often orders of magnitude more variables at play than physical models are designed to utilize, which is where machine learning comes in super handy - drawing statistical inferences from millions of data points to provide a forecast based on statistics, not physics.

Answering a robocall and not immediately hanging up should be grounds for losing your right to vote.

But in any and every contested race, as my mom Mary Morello always said, we have to fight the fascist every which way we can, recognizing that even if there’s but an inch of difference between two candidates, there are a lot of vulnerable people who could be greatly harmed in that inch. So vote your ass off

Despite the misleading title, he is saying “vote blue no matter who” just without the (cringe) soundbite. Sure he’s not explicitly specifying what party to vote for but the intent of the two messages is the same - at a certain point in the election process, there are only two people who have any shot at winning. You must vote for one even if you hate them both. Abstaining may as well be a vote for the worst candidate.

The average tax rate for the highest earners (over 200k) rarely paid over 45%. Still higher than the average of today, but nowhere near what most people claim about the time.

This sounds to me like people misunderstanding of the concept of tax brackets, not a deliberate deception. Yes, most people making over $200k in 1955 paid less than 91% of their income in taxes, because of course they did. In fact, they all did. It’s mathematically impossible for them to be required to pay 91% of their income as taxes because the income below $200k (again, $2.5M equivalent today) is taxed at a lower rate, and with a smaller wealth divide, fewer people were making vast sums above that amount.

Sure, there may be a handful of stable geniuses out there, the types of people who would turn down a raise because it would put them in a higher tax bracket, who could misinterpret “the marginal tax rate was 91%” as “91% of their total income was taxed”, but we dont need to cater every statistic to those people.

He had to block the swastika, they’re not fully “out” Nazis yet.

1955 top income tax bracket is 91% for single income over $200k ($2.5M today). IDK what’s fake about that, except if you don’t understand the concept of bracketing taxes.

You can leave the handle unlocked, and just use the deadbolt this way.

This is how I have locked my house for the last like 100 years without a smart deadbolt.

Pretend persecution is the right wing’s kink. Always has been, always will be.

They mention permissions so my guess, without seeing it in action, is the permission is to be able to access the global clipboard, otherwise you’re just using an isolated clipboard.

Also they mention the keyboard having a paste button as a fallback for misbehaving apps, but IDK if that locks you into using GOS’ very mediocre keyboard.

Quoted the article for ya in another comment.

ProLogium Technology has started mass production of its Gen 3.5 Lithium Ceramic Battery in Taiwan, putting an all-solid-state battery design with high energy density into Giga-level manufacturing.

A third-party test by TÜV found that ProLogium’s 185.4 Ah large-format cell reached 381 Wh/kg of gravimetric energy density and 903 Wh/L of volumetric energy density. In simple terms, the cell can store more energy for its weight and size, an advantage for electric vehicles and other applications where battery space is limited.

The cell also passed a separate test by UL Solutions under China’s GB/T 43568-2026 methodology for all-solid-state batteries. After six hours under vacuum at 120 degrees Celsius, the cell recorded less than 0.05% weight loss, compared with the standard’s maximum threshold of 0.5%.

That result allows the cell to be classified as all-solid-state under the Chinese standard. GB/T 43568-2026 has also been submitted to the International Electrotechnical Commission as a reference for international standardization.

Battery numbers meet factory scale The bigger development is not just the cell’s performance figures but the manufacturing scale behind them. ProLogium says its Gen 3.5 battery is now in mass production at its Giga-level facility in Taiwan, moving the technology beyond laboratory and pilot-line production.

The company’s Lithium Ceramic Battery platform has been developed since 2012. ProLogium began commercial production in 2013 and says it has since shipped more than 2.4 million cells for consumer, specialty and automotive applications.

Its manufacturing process has also evolved in stages. A Sheet-by-Sheet production line began commercial operation in 2013, followed by a Roll-to-Roll line in 2017. The company’s third-generation Giga-level manufacturing platform entered operation in 2024.

That progression is important because solid-state batteries have faced a difficult transition from promising laboratory cells to reliable, high-volume manufacturing. ProLogium’s approach is to carry manufacturing knowledge, equipment, and process improvements from one battery generation to the next instead of starting over at each stage.

Same architecture, new chemistry At the center of the platform is ProLogium’s Logithium cell architecture. It uses a ceramic separator and an edge-frame structure that extends around the electrode perimeter to help isolate potential burrs while providing sealing and insulation.

The architecture has remained in place as ProLogium has changed electrolyte chemistry and active materials. The company says this allows new battery generations to use much of the existing manufacturing foundation.

That strategy will be tested further with Gen 4, which uses a fully inorganic superfluidized electrolyte while retaining the same Logithium architecture and manufacturing process. ProLogium expects only about 10% of its existing Giga-level production line and related equipment to require modification for Gen 4 production.

Gen 4 is also designed to add an Active Safety Mechanism intended to prevent thermal runaway by stabilizing electrode active materials at high temperatures. The company is targeting applications including electric vehicles, maritime systems, aerospace, unmanned systems and data centers.

ProLogium is also building a manufacturing strategy beyond Taiwan, with France planned for scaled production and North America targeted for phased localization. The company says the model could use battery inlays produced at scale in France or Taiwan before downstream partners assemble them into cells, modules and packs closer to customers.

For now, the Gen 3.5 production milestone puts ProLogium’s solid-state battery technology on a manufacturing line rather than leaving it at the prototype stage.

It’s neat in concept, but such a waste of material over stick framing.

Also, do you need to bust out the impact drill every time you want to hang a photo? What it you need to move an outlet?

Also also, what happened if you foundation shifts, like at all?

And how’s the insulation on this? Nothing is thermally broken, you’re gonna have a good amount of heat going through those rounded corners.

Agreed! But also a friendly reminder: With a large primary pool, only one candidate can advance; odds are it’s not your preferred vote.

When your preferred candidate doesn’t make it past the primary, that’s normal. Don’t throw away your most meaningful vote out of spite.

And a form of identification plastered on every piece of attire / equipment they own.

Ehh, they’re meh. Give me a Stardew Valley or a Minecraft any day over something like Valorant or Call of Black Dutyfield 12

Because I had to open the video just to find out WTF this vague title is talking about - Proton VPN kill switch not working when jumping servers on MacOS.

Agree Proton should fix, but also fuck clickbaity titles.
