Thanks for this. Another important bit:
5,000mAh × 3.88V ÷ 1,000 ≈ 19.4Wh

Didn't know there was an Android version!

I've been using OnlyOffice on Linux for a while. It's what LibreOffice could be if Libre's UI wasn't a potato. But does anyone know if fears about its ties to Russia are legitimate?

When I looked into it, I didn't find anything to worry about. Just a lot of fear mongering, because Russia=bad.

Are these so-called experts supposed to have me believe that gambling apps designed to get people addicted to their gambling app might be a gateway to gambling addiction?

I've heard rumblings about the beta amyloid hypothesis being weak or incomplete for a while. Does anyone better versed in the research know what alternative hypotheses have shown promise?

I don't think it's realistic, but what they mean is that the community can in theory get together and decide to fork the code, collectively deciding that BlackRock's Bitcoin addresses are no longer part of their Bitcoin network. The BlackRock Bitcoin would be incompatible with the forked code.

The result of a fork like that is two coins: BlackRock Bitcoin and Everyone Else Bitcoin. Every holder of the original Bitcoin gets an equal amount of both. It's a popularity contest between the two resulting Bitcoins to determine the price of each.

In 2017, Bitcoin was struggling to scale. It had absurd transaction fees due to demand (just like Ethereum a few years later), and the community couldn't come to a consensus on how to upgrade it. 10% of the community forked the code to upgrade it by increasing block size, while everyone else opted for an L2 scaling solution. The result for holders was that they ended up with both Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash in their wallets. Weirdly, the combined market value ended up being higher than value of the Bitcoin before the fork. I sold my Bitcoin Cash immediately and pocketed the money, expecting the price to go to zero. It did not.

I eagerly await an F-Droid-like open source app store for Apple. Fapple.

Multiple people like making every community political and unfocused. It doesn't change the reality that many communities are unfocused.

This has nothing to do with sticking my head in the sand and everything to do with the post being misclassified.

It's important news. But it's incongruent with the expectation people have when they subscribe to a community to learn about science. Did I learn anything about science from the Politico article? No, I learned something about politics.

Everything is affected by politics. Politics is the primary topic of the article. Politico agrees, because it is a publication dedicated to politics.

You are welcome to post content related to scientific research rather than politics in the science community

It is definitely a political article about politics and not about science

I agree with the sentiment, but incessant political rage bait across every single Lemmy community is so exhausting

Politico is not a source of science journalism. They have no "Science" category on their website.

There are plenty of communities to call out the current US administration on its depressing politics. Science is not one of them.

I don't really want articles from Politico in Science.

I searched for "nitinol cooling system" and found articles dating back to 2016 about the same technology at a German university –

Cool tech, but this recent article lacks substance compared to the older ones. Also interesting that the German team claimed 2x better efficiency than a typical heat pump.

I love this. I think I'm one night away from turning it into screensaver to pair with Chicago95, a la

I don't see this talked about much anymore, but the day Plex added telemetry in 2017 was the day I became five-alarm desperate for an alternative. Had to wait a 2-3 years with Plex's telemetry IP's and domains blacklisted before Jellyfin was mature enough for me to make the change.

How Plex users can be comfortable with any telemetry is beyond me.

Fair point. My original prompt asked for more, but the model wasn't capable enough. Not sure if the "warp drive" part would be part of any standard algo.

Any ideas on challenges that are new and more fun than the "balls rolling in a hexa-,hepta-,octagon" or "simulate a solar system" prompts everyone's using these days?
