This is correct. Web dev is told to make sure ads load before content. They don’t want users that don’t generate profits.

Is it that they spice the patties or something else? What’s the liklihood their burgers are mixed meat? Like maybe goat + beef?

Predatory fish like tuna accumulate extra mercury by eating other fish.

Sardine (Wikipedia): :

Because they are low in the food chain, sardines are low in contaminants, such as mercury, relative to other fish commonly eaten by humans, and have a relatively low impact in production of greenhouse gases.

For comparison (bluefin tuna):

since bluefins require so much food per unit of weight gained, up to 10 times that of salmon, if bluefins were to be farmed at the same scale as 21st-century salmon farming, many of their prey species might become depleted

They used to limit the number of stations/outlets anyone could own. That limit ensured a multitude of ‘voices’ could be heard. That went away under Clinton. Before that they’d also enforced the more questionable Fairness Doctrine, but that died under Reagan.

Gomez further criticized the FCC for overstepping its authority in “intervening in employment matters reserved for other government entities with proper jurisdiction on these issues” by requiring Skydance commitments to not establish any DEI programs, which Carr derided as “invidious.” But Gomez countered that “this agency is undermining legitimate efforts to combat discrimination and expand opportunity” by meddling in private companies’ employment decisions.

That’s Fascism!

You can argue that requiring equal opportunity programs were also government overreach, but even a cursory look at the history of those programs shows they were done to combat a deep history of racism combined with the statistics and figures proving discrepencies. Equal opportunity programs were publicly debated and approved to solve a problem. This is being done without review or evidence at the whim of the administration.

I’d love to do it nearly-daily, but it is expensive and I typically don’t have most the ingredients on-hand. Right now I have a huge amount of watermelon and a bit of salami, but no suitable cheese or veg., and it takes so much time and planning to get everything together it just doesn’t happen except for large gatherings.

Antipasto or charcuterie with grilled veg, crostini or other bread, cheese and maybe some meat (salami or such) – but particularly grilled asparagus. Something like this:

@diegantobass@lemmy.world has the best answer. Write a letter. Tell him stuff you remember doing together. Maybe include a physical printed photo of the two of you and/or the family together.

Alaska. Remote, expensive, so cold your car’s tires freeze with the flat spot they had while you were parked so you thump thump thump down the graveled roads until they stretch out, and to paraphrase @poccalyps, ‘ice storms, earthquakes,… and some of the dumbest, most entitled Jesus-humping maga fucks in the country.’

Very common saying with lots of links (merriam-webster, dictionary, wiktionary, grammarist)

Is your wife from somewhere very isolated or exotic? Or does she simply want you to add more variety to your discourse? Toh-may-toh/Toh-mah-toh

“Silliness leads to tears” typically said after energetic goofiness has led to an ‘owie’.

Bonus: Grandparents were fond of “Children should be seen and not heard.”

Per that definition:

Vacuum tubes (thermionic valves) were the first active electronic components… and by the 1920s, commercial radio broadcasting and telecommunications were becoming widespread and electronic amplifiers were being used in such diverse applications as long-distance telephony and the music recording industry.

So tubes are in! Old lamps are OUT!

Are thermionic diodes allowed or just semiconductor diodes? What about the early crystal diodes (subset of semiconductor). Did the Colossus computer count? Eniac? I guess particular items don’t matter because no individual owns either and I doubt individual built replicas.

What counts as electronics? Guitar speaker with vacuum tubes? Old rotary phone? Lamps so old the electric cords are covered in a hard fabric? If you require solid state / chips and boards rather than things that did the same function without them, you’re excluding the stuff predating that tech.

After reading the piece and seeing no explanation for why Farrell would be so angry, I found this quote from his wife about what happened:

“He felt that the stage volume had been extremely loud and his voice was being drowned out by the band,” Etty wrote in her post. “Perry had been suffering from tinnitus and a sore throat every night. But when the audience in the first row, started complaining up to Perry cussing at him that the band was planning too loud and that they couldn’t hear him, Perry lost it.”

DNA from three people: the two biological parents plus a third person who supplies healthy mitochondrial DNA. The babies were born to mothers who carry genes for mitochondrial diseases and risked passing on severe disorders. The eight babies are healthy, say the researchers behind the trial.

That’s gonna mess up how we trace ancestry.

When we mean the bad ones, it’d be, “My nightmare has come true.”

… seems like every news story evokes that thought these days.

I guess I just can’t hear “literacy gains” as anything but a postivie regardless of source; even (if not especially) if it is an ‘enemy’ population.

I am not confident I or most other Americans can always tell what is misinformation. A recent bout of AI generated ‘Am I the A-hole?’ post on reddit recently got a bunch of people angry (Meta would say, ‘highly engaged’) because enough of them though the stories might be true.

When the Fukishima power plant got hit by a tidal wave, I foolishly believed an ‘expert’ on TV that day who said the plant was designed so that lead shielding hoods would automatically cover the rods in the event of power loss. Well THAT didn’t happen. I no longer remember who the ‘expert’ was, so he could fool me again. Maybe he has.
