Doesn't soy mimic estrogene, thus causing potentially other issues?

I think that's an overblown concern that mainly applies to processed forms of soy like soy milk or tofu (I don't consume soy milk or tofu). It would be difficult to consume that much of the raw bean; we're probably talking hundreds of grams of fiber per day if you tried. I'm not certain though, do your own research.

How is TikTok able to screen this en masse? Are they going after tags? Political issues aside, I am really interested in the technical background in this.

Every large social network has fairly advanced mass screening setups for advertiser-sensitive topics. They just need to change the configs. On YouTube for example they will transcribe audio and run OCR on text to flag sensitive topics using MLP in order to flag certain topics (ex: Palestine/Israel), and prevent most ads from being shown (and demonetize and down rank).

Basically every large advertiser requires this so it's pretty trivial to turn on.

The only thing I could come up with, assuming this isn’t a technical glitch, is that TikTok already had the infra to silence anything they want on the platform and as soon as the keys were handed over they turned that filter up to 100%

How would you distinguish this from the case where they turned the 'magnify dissent' filter down from 200%?

Sure, but are they running audio recognition and image recognition models on each upload just to classify it?

Social media platforms have been doing that for years to keep advertisers happy, so yes.

Surely they do that to filter out Tiannamen Square content already…. Now they’re good to go for any authoritarian gov who wants to restrict what their citizens can see their own government doing.

There is https://explainshell.com/ not in terminal but should do the trick.

In tutorial, it did not accept HIM as a solution, because it wanted DIM. Kinda confusing.

You have to form a new word. It starts as HIM.

Firefox on Android has UBlock Origin available. But that covers the browser only. I guess AdGuard and VPN might help here?

How exactly are they pushing the brine against the ~50BAR pressure differential?

They're not dealing with a pressure differential. Or at least I don't think so.

I don't think the Journalist who wrote the article understood the technical details, but from digging a little at their website I think what's going on is they're moving heavy brine up and down, all of it equalized with local pressure.

Despite them describing it as pumped hydro, I think its better framed as a cousin of the "chunk of concrete suspended over a mine shaft" style gravity battery. Replace the mineshaft with water and the concrete with salt.

Oh, right thanks for clarification. They are indeed not pumping just any salt water, but much heavier brine (which they get who knows where).

So if there is any leak in the system, it will kill local wildlife right, like the brine pools under ice in Antarctica.

If there’s a catastrophic collapse, sure.

If there’s a leak? I don’t see why it would; the brine will be immediately diluted.

How does this differ from Rufus [0] or Balena Etcher [1]? [0] https://rufus.ie/en/ [1] https://etcher.balena.io/

Both of those write a single ISO to your USB stick, while Ventoy allows you to store numerous ISOs in a folder on the stick and choose which to use at runtime. Also, you can store other files like normal with the remaining space on your stick.

Unlike Balena Etcher, Ventoy is not a bloated Electron app that sends telemetry from your computer: https://github.com/balena-io/etcher/issues/3784

I just cannot fathom how a 450 MB dd frontend is taken seriously, instead of being the subject of relentless mockery.

Rufus and BalenaEtcher are both programs for flashing an image to a disk. Ventoy is flashed onto the disk itself (into a small EFI partition), then the rest of the disk is just a regular file system, where you drag and drop a group of ISOs, then pick between them on boot.

Rufus does more than just flash an image, it's actually quite sophisticated and completely different in ways that copying images with Balena is not.

And Rufus is the product of continuous improvement, maintained brilliantly.

Those let you write one image to a USB stick. With Ventoy you write the bootable part once, and plop as many ISOs on there as you want. You get one bootable device where you can select from a list of ISOs.

They mean the intersection between the cone produced by the satellite and "illuminated" surface. If the antenna beam is normal to the sphere, it will produce a disk which has an diameter.

This, and 1/3 of earth’s surface is the maximum you can see from geostationary orbit.

> Privileged ports in rootless mode not working? Good! That's security working as intended. A reverse proxy setup is a better architecture anyway.

So, how are you supposed to run the proxy inside the container? Traefik for example? Genuinely curious.

Don't run it in rootless for your reverse proxy? Having one container running that way is still better than having all of them work that way.

Virtually any LCD screen will produce polarized light. This is the core working principle of those screens. So if you use a polarized filter (sunglasses for example) it will completly block the image coming from the screen.

You can see the effect here: https://www.reddit.com/r/mildlyinteresting/comments/crvpil/t...

I believe this will not work with OLED screens though, but I do not have one to test this.

We use IR Floodlights + IR absorbing film + a high speed IR camera. Works great in most lighting conditions and the screen doesn't show up on the camera.
