What a HORRIFICALLY misleading headline.

A) Water breaks aren't banned, just no longer mandated under some local ordinances. Still mandated by federal law, in theory.

B) The law hasn't even gone into effect yet.

C) The deaths referred to are not from lack of water. It even specifically suggests lack of air conditioning.

This one can't possibly end well for reddit. If they remove the mods...

A) They leave the sub open until they find new ones, and the userbase goes even more crazy with NSFW content until then.

B) They close the sub until they find new ones, encouraging most of the userbase to leave, and likely not come back when it reopens.

C) They accept the flood of troll requests to takeover the sub, and the userbase goes even more crazy with NSFW content, but also with mod support.

Not exactly a win for the userbase, but much bigger not-win for reddit, and it's gonna be fun to watch.

Definitely a result of recency bias here, but in a couple of scenes in Tears of the Kingdom, Ganondorf is flanked by two female Gerudo with unique outfits. If you translate the Hylian text on these outfits, they say Koume and Koutake.

Over the past year, Meta has hired dozens of Twitter employees

LOL, you mean all those employees you unceremoniously fired?

Right, I think the point is that they can more easily identify strings of deletions that look like they came from a script" as opposed to activity that looks like legitimate user activity, because it was actually performed ny a user.

It depends on how well they can be trusted with having access to all the data we would be sharing with them.

Since the answer for "how much can we trust Meta with any amount of data" is "not at all", that's an easy "defederate immediately".

Also, it WAS profitable, for the vast majority of its history. It only stopped being profitable something like 8-10 years ago, when Congress mandated that (IIRC) pensions had to be funded 70 years in advance.

I guess that explains it, but that's even more scummy, really. You're paying all these off of tbe same account, yeah? And they're still using it as an excuse to dupe the fee?

Well if that ain't accurate...

You measured the resistor at 403 Ohms? That would qualify it as "not failed" then. Resistors pretty much exclusively fail open, or on rare occasions, out-of-tolerance on the high side. After 5 years of doing electronics diagnostics for USAF aircraft, I never say any other type of resistor failures.
