Require all LLMs to provide answers in the form of haikus.

I don't at all understand what the point is here. Do you think that Trumo will support Gazans? Trump has said he would wholeheartedly take Israel's side and provide more support than the current administration. There isn't a choice between what you have and what you want. It's between what you have and something worse than what you have.

Trump winning doesn't force Democrats to support Gazans. It forces them to side with Israel in order to appeal to the electorate.

I can't figure out what you mean. The subtitle in the lemmy post goes to the same place. Within the article I dont see a link elsewhere.

Humorous, but also stupid.

I don't know what I'm missing here, but I don't see numbers for the race at the link provided. I just see national polling numbers.

Although there is a common adjective order, it's not always clear which category a word belongs in. People insisting that the words "modular" and "versatile" fit into whatever category they chose are presenting a lot more certainty than is warranted. I am a native speaker, and either order sounds fine in this case.

There are two bills mentioned in the article. One in Arizona is to make the subminimum wage even lower. One in Massachusetts is to raise the sub minimum wage to match minimum wage, effectively eliminating subminimum wage.

People know what it is. That's why they're down voting it. These don't build communities.

We all have access to RSS and can create our own sets of feeds. Posts are for the things that are worth talking about. Spamming a community makes it harder to find the interesting things.

According to the article you have provided, it has... The first figure under Global Studies shows nuclear prices have increased, and the general trends of the various studies in the two tables show an increase over time.

The other table has newer studies than 2015, where nuclear is not cheaper, but you've only pointed out the column where they found it was cheaper 10 years ago. Wind and solar have gotten cheaper to produce, and nuclear more expensive. It is not cost efficient compared to other modern options.

It costs more to produce that electricy with nuclear than it does to produce it with other technology. Making lots of cost inefficient electricity is still making cost inefficient electricity.

Nuclear plants cost a lot to produce but electricity from a nuclear plant sells for the same as electricity from anything else. Since many other options are cheaper to produce and maintain, nuclear is less cost efficient, not highly cost efficient as you claim. That's why it's not successful.

Wind and solar are both cheaper forms of electricity than nuclear. It's not like this is a two-way race between nuclear and fossil fuels. Nuclear is a losing tech, right next to fossil fuels.

My moral compass is also why I dont use search engines. It's absolutely cheating to use modern technology to find out something.

There are 5 walgreens in a 1.5 mi radius near me. That doesn't seem smart.

No person is advantaged by having their voting power go toward a candidate they woudn't vote for.

This person knows just enough to sound credible and still get it wrong. He says that the electoral college requires states to allocate all delegates to the popular vote winner in each state, which is not true. States can allocate delegates however they want, and at least two states allocate proportionally to how how their populace voted.

This is a critical difference, because eliminating a mismatch between the electoral college and national popular vote doesn't require eliminating the college. Eliminating the college requires a constitutional amendment, which is difficult to achieve. The National Popular Vote Compact requires nearly as much effort, and it's incredibly fragile, because as soon as a few states allocate all of their electors to a candidate who lost in that state, they'll pull out and the whole thing will crumble.

The solution is for states to allocate delegates proportionally. That is in the best interest of each state, so it's not fragile. It can be accomplished one state at a time, so it's logistically easier. It doesn't require huge buy in to work, just a handful of states, so it's easier to achieve and more stable. Every mismatch better the electoral college and national popular vote in US history would not have occurred if states allocated delegates proportionally, so it solves the problem. People should start recognizing the real problem, so that we can work on a real solution.

I haven't used Bronner's soap in years, but unless something is radically different, that's sawdust.

CloudFlare makes more than a billion dollars a year in revenue. The work done for this project is probably worth millions to them and they paid out $100,000. That sounds like bullshit to me. Let corporations hire lawyers instead of doing their work for a pittance.

I've never really seen Reno 911 other than clips, but this sounds like Reno 911.
