  • This is the logic publishers apply to libraries when they charge them more for books than general retail price.

  • Alba Y823-5000 Flea Market Find

    Jump

  • That is a nice find! I love the old Alba/Seiko digitals.

  • Menendez’s wife struck and killed a man while driving in 2018, reports indicate

  • Reminds me of the partner of a US intelligence member who hit and killed a man in the UK and saw no repercussions. Vehicular manslaughter is becoming a top 10 US export.

  • SmartTube - an advanced player for set-top boxes and tv running Android OS

  • I find YT Pro to be more polished. It uses MicroG and is closed source which can put some people off, but I've had nil issues.

  • Awesome, I've been running SmartTube on a Sony Android TV for a bit. Works really well, almost seamless. Regular updates appear via the Telegram chat too. SmartTube coupled with YT Pro for phone is a perfect combination.

  • Right, so I know seals are descended from bears, but narwhals being cetaceans are more hippo like? So do we refer to narwhal meat using the same nomenclature as say beef, or is it it's own thing?

  • Playdate Piracy

    Jump

  • Any reason for playdate vs a Miyoo or Anbernic system?

  • Is there a good collection of survival knowledge compiled somewhere?

  • How to Invent Everything is a good, humorous take on restarting society from first principles. It's obviously not aimed at what you are going for but it has plenty of good information on all of those topics. Next search for Military manuals.

    I would also recommend attending some courses if you haven't done so already. It is great to research this topic, but many of those points you list require skill acquisition that can only be learned out field.

  • Where to post Academic Articles

    Jump

  • Have you checked the author doesn't have it linked on her researchgate or lab website? As in, it might already be available, just not easily searchable.

  • Google Podcasts to shut down in 2024 with listeners migrated to YouTube Music

    Jump

  • On an android device you can use Google Home app to run casting.

  • Running AI is so expensive that Amazon will probably charge you to use Alexa in future, says outgoing exec

    Jump

  • I use Google to turn on my TV by saying 'turn on TV', easily done. But then when I ask it to adjust volume it asks me which TV... I only have one TV online and it had just turned it on.

  • So long... I'll not be returning

  • GOP congressman calls for execution of “sodomy-promoting” US Army general

    Jump

  • It's really three parties though, the Liberals have needed the Nationals quite often in order to gain the house. Plus last election we saw a surge in support for independents, who are actually being extremely effective in both Parliament and Senate. Lastly, year-on-year the Greens poach more from both sides as climate change becomes topical.

  • Federal judge again strikes down California law banning gun magazines of more than 10 rounds

    Jump

  • I referred to them as examples of societal mainstays that have been/are being phased out generationally. But true, it's near impossible to find a good comparison.

  • Federal judge again strikes down California law banning gun magazines of more than 10 rounds

    Jump

  • The fact is that you can't ban gun in the US. It's just impossible. There's too many of them that any change in law in that regard would take generations to see effect

    I find this a weak argument. Cigarettes and ICE cars were equally if not more so pervasive, and through legislation we have seen change occur to the use rates of both of those, albeit much slower in the case of the former.

    You are right in that effective gun regulation in the US will be a monumental task, but not impossible. It's just the best time to have started was yesterday.

  • Oh mate, I thought my instance showed on my username. I'm in the regulated land of Oz so you don't need to tell me how better controls would help the situation out. Nonetheless, I'm familiar with firearms via growing up on farms and military service.

    Agree with your points, but also I would love to see stats on successful use of firearms in self-defence vs homicides where victim was armed. Not raising that in a contentious way, just would be interesting to see whether mag capacity >10 is even a relevant factor in that situation. Most pistol mags would be 10-15, except revolvers of course so limiting capacity to 10 doesn't really affect the outcome unless in a ridiculous situation as I outlined previous.

    Jump

  • Yeah, how are Americans meant to shoot and kill the 11 intruders that come into their bedroom at night as they sleep if their AR-15 mag is limited to 10 rounds.

    Good to see common sense prevail. Now to lift the ban on belt fed firearms so Americans can really live free (or at least those who aren't brown, black, female, queer, progressive, poor or school children).
