Different strokes! esp. depending on which orbit you’re in.

Always have a good time when I run into this channel. Gotta be scary for drummers, but I’m not, maybe that’s it!
Wow. It was only after reading comments on this post until that I remembered WHY I was more than happy to leave Reddit behind. Too bad so many of these diseased children moved over here.
It took just one comment: ’ What is “4000ac”? ’ to start the drool-fest.
Got a neuralink? One word you never wanna hear: ‘Oops!’
Yeah! Did that once, many years back. took a couple weeks. Used a ripper program that went out on the net and got all the metadata, saved to a HD (now on the third one). Put the CDs in Logic cases (no-wear), recycled the jewelboxes.
Over time, started to drop album folders into VLC, save the playlists, at ur fingertips.
The year of the four linux desktops, I hope! (I have 3, but two need to go to the landfill).
After the thousands of years of human history I’ve read about, getting rid of competitors seems to have been the primary concern of most of the ruling classes all over the world. Way back to Ur.
But I’m not in the field. My reasoning for posting this: I see news about PFAs a lot, this was fresh to me and I was glad to hear the news that chemists are at work on the problem (many communities in WA have contaminated water). And simply-enough for ‘newbs’ to learn from. I don’t find a ‘technology for experts’ ‘community’ on Lemmy.
Livescience is far from the best source, but I checked that they had a link to the study (Science) in it.
It appears, going by the comments, that others who are not ‘in the field’ were happy to learn about. It’d be great if more people ‘in the field’ would post about such discoveries now and then.
The balloon + helium has to be lighter than the (couple of liters of) air it displaces.
He Density (at STP) 0.1786 g/L
The density of air at sea level is about 1.2 g/L
Another interesting factoid about rare elements: Very little nickel is found in the Earth’s crust. Most nickel has arrived on Earth from meteors. Usually mixed with iron, which held-back the arrival of the iron-age.

Blaming another business? Hmmm. Sounds like Boeing’s attempted solution.
AND they might have had miniature cameras in them for the past 20 years.
(The laws against this stuff are almost non-existing. Option left for those of us creeped out by constant surveillance: don’t leave home, unplug that webcam. Demand privacy or lose it.)
There’s a large org (@ hope.net) that has a non-profit convention every few years. It maintains a e-mail list to let its > 1000 previous attendees know about the upcoming convention and related info. In the past decades everything was fine.
This year (con in July) Gmail has been spam-binning ALL of those reminder e-mails aimed at attendees who use Gmail. Quite clearly it’s not the users making that choice. The org is left with no other way to contact those attendees.
Dear Alex, Welcome to Waking Life !!
Singapore has too many rich Chinese already.
FLAC is good, but not necessary for background listening. At 192k the average song is ~ 5Mb. 100k x 5 = 0.5 TB.
With a long, varied list of select internet radio stations, you can choose what genre (or special weekly show) you want to listen to at the moment. Picked by people, not algorithms. Keep a playlist of the stations you like best, startup your player (like VLC) with the list, and pick the one you’re in the mood for.
Or you could just collect mp3s locally for choosier days, dump a bunch of them into VLC, listen to them in album or random order. In either case, at no cost.

Don’t remember any PSA’s like that back from when they were doing atmospheric testing of atom bombs down in Nevada for weeks on end. But they weren’t planning on smoking them all the way.
