it's up to school superintendents and legislators to ensure students' water is safe.

And 20 years later there will be a committee investigating why schools didn't do shit.

[-] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 28 points 2 days ago

Yeah but WHY. Why exclude -of all places- schools with children? Really?

Let's stop poisoning people except kids with developing brains because someone paid us off

This just reminds me of Rwanda where right before the big one, they started distributing machetes which then were used to chop the opposition to death...

But of course trump wouldn't do that... Without trying to scam his own voters first, at least.

Main drive is a 1 1TB super fast m.2 device, backup drive is an 8TB platter drive with btrfs.

Bunch of scripts I wrote myself copy all important stuff to the platter drive every night using rsync, then makes a snapshot with current date. Since its all copy on write, i have daily backups for like 3 years now. Some extra scripts clean up some of the older backups, lowering the backup frequency to once a week after a year, once every 4 weeks after 2 years.

I have similar solutions for my servers where i rsync the backups over the Internet.

Honestly SpaceX is WAY overrated.

Yes, they have some good engineers, i dont doubt that, but:

They still haven't been able to replicate what NASA did way back in the 60s with a bunch of rulers, they still haven't gone beyond low earth orbit.

Their heavy rocket's best attempt got it empty into an unstable spinning Leo, and thanks to fucking musk it destroyed a launchpad, polluting kilometers around which I'm sure they cleaned up, right?

They're entire shtick was that they'd be super cheap and they're fucking expensive, even after everything they have done is basically funded by tax payers.

All that is steered by a lying narcissistic psychopath who now uses his crashing Twitter system to get a dictator elected. The guy is like trump, every second word out of his mouth is a lie. Seriously every project he coined was bullshit, every claim he made was bullshit, none of it happened. Hyperloop, anyone? It killed high speed rail, so yeeeeiii? Tesla's with rocket engines? Ballistic missiles to transport humans across the globe in 30 minutes? The boring company making tunnels 1000x cheaper? And SpaceX? We will be on Mars in ~~2016~~ ~~2018~~ ~~2020~~ ~~2022~~ ~~2024~~ 2026, for sure! They're still in Leo, which is the (relatively) easy part of getting humans to Mars....

ALL of it, bold lies.

So yeah, I honestly think that SpaceX is not really helping space exploration forward. I think it's 90% bloat aimed at getting as much money for musk as possible

Talking about missing the point whilst said point is staring you in the eyes...

[-] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 7 points 5 days ago

This.

So many conversations had where people talk about kamela being a war criminal who loves genocide because she doesn't nuke Israel.

People need to get a grip and get a basic understanding that the world is just not that simple.

Huh.

Wife and I talk ALL the time about anything and everything, be it the weather, how weather works, of free will exists, the kids, if kids exists, you name it...
