I think the movie did a pretty good job of showing that he wasn't the inventor of the atomic bomb. The moniker has always been "father" of the atomic bomb, since he was more of a supervisor and manager than a deep researcher at that point

If a product can be offered without much issue on a pay once and own-as-is forever model, then I think there is an ethical imperative to pirate it.

I would be willing to pay a few hundred bucks for a perpetual license to look 2023 version of Adobe Lightroom. Unfortunately the only place to find such a product is on the high seas. Adobe will only let you buy a subscription based equivalent. I like the actual software product, and I've gotten good at using it, but if I can't just buy it, I'm not going to pay for it.

I actually have a plug-in for Lightroom called topaz Labs AI enhancement suite. I pay for a single year's worth of updates, but I can still use the software as of the final update forever. If Adobe actually offered something like that I would be all over it.

I've gone back a few times since boost died, but that's mostly because Google search sucks without adding "Reddit" to a lot of my search queries.

No, no it's not.

Ok, you first

... what's wrong with Joe Rogan? The traditional media has smeared him because they don't like that CNN plus shat the bed and they're sad about it.

He's just a 'normal' dude. The fact that you put him in with he likes of Andrew Tate, or Peppa Pig fame, says a lot about what you've been led to believe.

I'm not a big fan of Rogan, but I don't dislike either, I'm just not a podcast person very often. The guy just has conversations with all kinds of people.

Makes sense to me. Treat whole groups of people as your enemy and find out that people don't like you very much.

Does lemmy have sort by controversial?

I'm not a right wing person, but I'm not a fan of the current neoliberal culture war people from the democrats either.

Speaking as an independent, people for unironically say the word bigot come off as unpalatable as people who unironically (actually ironically is probably worse) say the word snowflake. And really, you're saying effing? Say your curse worse and commit or don't bother.

The biggest weapon the objectively immoral on the right have is the subjective disgust they have with 'leftist' social rhetoric. Everyone is just reactionary and out country is in a mutually abusive relationship with a side of self harm

On meltdown issues maybe, but if it's one of the molten salt types, they generate way more waste. Old school rods make long term storage of waste actually pretty easy

You just described c/antiwork

What do they think they do at the factory?

Ehh, Google still sucks these days without adding 'reddit' to the search query. Everything online is listacles these days.

And this is why I think plug in hybrids are the way to go for most new car buyers for the next few years. Unfortunately greenies think im a plague doctor peddling useless herbs and the diesel heads are convinced that I invented a way to replace testicles with soybeans.

A PHEV uses 5x less critical material than a compatible BEV, and people with one of these can be in ev mode 80% of the time or at least run the gas engine but get way higher carbon efficiency than ICE alone.

Unfortunately the new IRA bill nuked federal rebate for most of them and dealers are still charging an arm, leg, kidney, and firstborn in dealer markups

The control panel peaked at windows 7 though

Also, when I leave my work laptop at work I don't feel compelled to do any more work after I leave the office. When I take it home with me I have a constant feeling that usually ends up with me checking emails or finishing stuff at 9:00 or 10:00 p.m.

It's like homework that never ever ever gets finished and I'm tired of pretending that it's not literally homework.

It definitely depends. I generally do work from home on fridays, but I give barely any fucks about work on Friday. I am way more productive in the office. That's said, my commute is literally 7 minutes so I don't really care. It's actually kind of nice to mentally transition myself from work to home.

Bruh, just do your job/hobby. Mods acting high and mighty is a big part of what made reddit so toxic.

I'd happily pay for a 2023 Adobe Lightroom classic. Unfortunately Adobe doesn't offer this, but I can find it sailing the high seas branded this way.

It'd be cool to just buy it and get a year's worth of updates with the option of going subscription then

I'm a world of growing instability where the inputs for modern lifehave their supply consistency threatened, learning some basic survival skills is not a bad thing. Many countries will likely have huge energy, food, and water shortfalls in the coming years. Germany is burning what amounts to wet coal to make up for losing Russian oil. Ukraine was one of the world's biggest wheat producers. Russia produced a lot of the world's fertilizer. There are reasons to learn how to live without the entire support network most of us take for granted.

Though you should be pretty decent at living off grid before commiting to it.

Don't assume that you're cougar-proof or that 40°F and below weather with no real insulation is something you can save yourself from with enough bootstraps.
