Those are no fun to a customer. I’d much rather wear the loaner shoes.

See the decline of the graph even before the spring of ’22?

So you’re saying that the linked article’s findings are implausible? Is the article fake, then, in your opinion?

Well, now… I can tell you second hand that catching chicken pox as an adult is no picnic either.

If you have already had shingles as an adult, aren’t you fairly well protected for the next ten years or so, at least? I’d wager that you are one of the people least at risk since your immune system is already primed and readying suppress the virus that’s latently infecting you.

If he lives there until he dies, bulldozing it will be Someone Else’s Problem. If the electrics catch fire and he dies, it’s his own problem. Perfect American solution.

I seem to recall that Doom 3 was unplayable dark on my PC, once upon a time.

I’m pretty sure you’re not allowed to use your legal firearms against people in Denmark. Even in a home intrusion event.

That’s the whole selling point of this phone, though. If they had made it easy to sideload Twitter, they might as well not make a phone.

The reason the iPhone takes great photos is probably 95% because of the software. It’s 0% because of the number of pixels, and never was even since their early models.

I think the kind of user who gets a detox phone will also get an Instax or a second hand old Ixus.

It’s literally the definition of a straw man argument. You state a proposition that nobody proposed, because it’s easy for you to tear it down. While others are arguing about your straw man, nobody is looking at or following up on the proposals *actually* on offer.

Nobody in the thread has proposed turning off all nuclear, hence you were building a straw man. Please don’t do that on HN.

No matter how cheap per request, someone will figure out a way to DoS that endpoint, and it will be extremely pricy unless you have effective rate limiting.

What do you mean by 2), ”it’s not heavily subsidized”? Remember we’re talking specifically about Sweden now, so I’ll discard any arguments about Germany or elsewhere. I don’t know the background there at all.

The Swedish authorities are right now processing requests for subsidies from prospective owners of future nuclear plants. You can read their announcements here for instance. See the little summary fact box at the bottom. https://www.regeringen.se/pressmeddelanden/2026/06/ansokan-o...

I see I implied that the disposal was a major part of the the total cost. Sorry for that, I was being facetious when answering your statement that spot market prices are not total system costs. Clearly there are many other costs than disposal, which are contributing to its none-competitiveness.

Regarding cost competitiveness: if new nuclear is cost competitive in Sweden, how come it needs to be so heavily subsidized?

What part isn’t true? That disposal of fuel is part of the total systems cost? Or that the new nuclear can’t compete without subsidies? I think both are evident truths.

Straw man.

You’re right, the total system costs include a lot of things, including disposal of spent fuel. Which is apparently so expensive, nuclear can’t compete with renewables fairly.

I think the promise of SMR is that the 1/5th reactor can be built in 1/2 the time. And you build five of them in parallell. And you have your power sources gradually online over about the same time as one ”big bang” build would take.

I don’t think it’s going to work out that way, but that’s how it’s being sold.

Sweden recently did the same: in order for companies to agree to make new reactors, the government had to promise them a price floor for the electricity they produce. The price floor suggested is more than twice the current price on the spot market. That means that, for the lifetime of those reactors, Swedish taxpayers will be subsidizing production of nuclear power. I thought the idea was that they would be profitable? What happened to the political right’s love of the free market? When politicians go fixing prices with this kind of ”advance bailout”, it just makes it look like they are trying to get a nice retirement job in the nuclear power sector…

These ships seem a little too bottom-heavy though. The animations could imply more ”physics” happening by tilting the ship a little at times.

I’m sure they’ve gotten more than one hot wallet from out of work crypto bros. Probably a profitable venture.

Realistically, ships should tip over if you turn you broadside into the wind with full sails.

Forced, presumably, by the student themself.

In the mobile app, it’s under Settings -> Manage history

Not that hard to guess, right? ;)

It does for me too, in Safari on iPhone.

What is ”SV” in this context? Silicon Valley? (Not a US resident, and I’ve never heard of any software cooperatives from there.)

This is the post I’m talking about. Make sure you understand how it would not be productive to go after each ISP individually when the traffic is from all of them.

See the other comments in this thread. The perpetrators are unknown and are jumping between residential IPs. Possibly botnets?

It’s effective against teenagers maybe. Not so much against Amazon, Meta or wherever botnet/crawler is coming out of China these days from up-and-coming AI companies.

How to make hydrogen production cheaper and easier: include an atomic reactor component.

Huh?

I’d be interested in hearing about some scenario where this actually costs less, given the cost of building anything nuclear in 2026.
