Burning anything is never clean. I have heard the "it burns clean" so many times.

From what I read in the article, its true that natural gas burns with fewer CO2 emissions than coal or oil. However, over a 20 year timeframe natural gas production, distribution, and consumption produces more methane than than either oil or coal. Since methane is a more powerful greenhouse gas, the increased emission of it, surpasses any benefit from fewer CO2 emissions.

I heard somewhere that Microsoft was blocking access to the kernel for third party developers like CrowdStrike and EA because of what CrowdStrike did. Have they reversed course?

If you buy one used that is how you can get around giving Google money.

From a security standpoint it might give you a temporary benefit since all of Google's tracking IDs will be associated with the original owner. On a new phone I figure it's associated with you immediately.

I will act through engagement.

When you use escalatory language you just just make the Nazis justify their actions by the response they receive.

In another tense moment in American history, the Civil rights movement of the 1960s, MLK was successful due to not being militant. Peaceful action and the strong overreaction of those against civil rights elicited sympathy in those not involved.

The fuck the high road mentality is what likely motivated the shooter and got us into this mess.

There is no reason to escalate what is already a tense political situation.

It is possible the shooter was outside the perimeter. Based on the videos I have seen on CBS, and here: https://www.survivethenews.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/1720916992_Potential-Trump-Shooter-Reportedly-Found-Dead-on-Shed-Roof-VIDEO-1024x576.jpg

The shooter appeared to be on a roof far away from the stands.

Edit: Confirmed that the shooter was outside the perimeter setup by secret service https://www.cbsnews.com/news/possible-shots-fired-at-trump-rally-in-butler-pennsylvania/

But can you trust that a user will pick a difficult to break password? They likely will pick something simple to remember but that is not a good password.

The we are just back to essentially having a plaintext password because if the attacker has a good dictionary, it will be easy to crack.

True, but at least in America bikes alone are not a great option.

Over 60 million (1 in 5) Americans live in rural areas. These places don't have public transportation or are so spread out that bikes are not practical.

That's what I thought. I didn't know if certain food supply chains were more exposed to PFAS than others.

The introduction of PFAS into food via containers is something I have been on the look out. That is is why I always use glass containers for food at home.

I am curious what foods are low in PFAS.

Do you have a good source?

Well I don't think that is the case. Parents and teachers are observing students not paying attention.

I would think if an educator can teach a full lesson, while also ensuring that students retain the information, when the student is watching YouTube, endlessly scrolling reddit or lemmy, or on Instagram this wouldn't be an issue.

The problem is that students aren't retaining the knowledge being provided to them.

 

I personally would not be interested in buying a new car. They depreciate in value too quickly and do the same exact job as a used car.

Used cars also have been run so lemons that come from the factory have been filtered out or fixed.

For my truck, I ended up looking in the owners manual and found a fuse that is for the modem. I removed it and the vehicle functions without issue.

I know it works because when I brought it to the dealership to get serviced they said they couldn't connect to it via their online service app. They also asked if I had tried to connect to it via the company app on my phone. I just told them I never needed to.

Just to be sure I verified they didn't reinstall the fuse and they had not.

Eggs, Salmon, Chicken Breast and Edamame are some of my favorites on the list.

I'm curious how the Russian Federation feels regarding the People's Republic of China attempting to curry favor in Central Asia

Interesting tradition. Don't know how well a coffee goes with getting ready for the game.

As mentioned in the comments, plain text keys aren't bad because they are necessary. You have to have at least one plain text key in order to be able to use encryption
