I’d like to see answers to this question, but the people on Lemmy who would have the most knowledge of this aren’t going to be hanging out in .world.

Brotato?

I loved the season opener. It was hilarious having actual lawyers judge how bad it was and Mommy Standards and Practices was well done.

The problem is that there isn’t a Dropout community and the equivalent Nebula community is rather dead.

Yeah, this is unpopular.

Same thing for European soccer?

American football predates World War I. Several rule changes including allowing the forward pass were initiated because President Theodore Roosevelt threatened to regulate American football nationally due to deaths of several players.

First, Camille was more “experienced” compared to Diana, and at the time that taint wasn’t seen being fit for a queen mother. There was also never a time when they were both single, leading to possible scandal as one would need to leave their partner for the other.

Second, the question never really was asked until Charles and Diana’s marriage was falling apart. This was a major black eye for the royal family and marrying a divorced spouse had caused a king to resign in Elizabeth’s lifetime, making her very sensitive to the perception of divorce in the public eye.

I’ve run some very small ones. A large one would feel like running a sewage treatment plant.

Unless the existing staff break down and can’t do enough work to keep the place running, management don’t care.

They’re greedy, not stupid.

That’s the 10th commandment.

Linux? Like a cat?

Don’t you understand, the Fediverse is serious business!

Only speaking to what I know:

Cuba - It will be a pain for you to handle the paperwork. As an American, you have to pick only one of right reasons to go to Cuba and going on vacation isn’t one of them. You also can’t go to fancy hotel since they are owned by the Cuban state and the USA embargo means you can’t trade with the government directly. You also need to keep all receipts for a few years.

Puerto Rico - Pretty stable as a place to visit, especially in touristy areas.

Turkey - Istanbul is a great place to visit and it is easy to get around. I also hear the beaches are great. Only possible issue is that Turkey is rather hilly and I don’t know if your mom can handle the hills.

Scotland - Nice place to visit, but you aren’t going to be going to visit any beaches. Also, you’ll likely be drinking in front of your mother.

Portugal - Nice place to visit. Very hilly. The area is also adjusting to its tourist demand.

According to the US military, it takes 64 weeks to learn Japanese as a native English speaker as it would take 26 to learn Spanish as a native English speaker.

Say what you want about the US military, but they likely have a lot of data in learning how long it takes for native English speakers to learn other languages.

Well, the Lemmy devs have stated that their goal isn’t to design a system that scales well and it shows. Part of it is that there may be a future where there are too many new users for a mod team to handle, especially if the barrier for signing up is extremely low.

And this is why I love Todd in the Shadows’s One Hit Wonderland.

I agree that pumping in water at a different temperature can affect the environment. It is just that a lot of people tend to conflate the effluent coming from plants like this as something which needs chemical or other treatment when the issue is thermal only.

There are already heat exchanging systems that do this with brackish water already; you don’t need to treat water if all you ate doing to the water is making the water hotter or colder.

Yeah, you probably could produce a medical tricorder right now which could detect if someone is dead.
