Started a campaign in XCOM 2, using the Long War of the Chosen mod, along with Mod Jam. XCOM is one of those games I’ve revisited regularly over the years, and mods help keep it fresh. Found out the person who made Mod Jam is taking a break and someone else made a replacement already - TedJam. Maybe I’ll play another campaign after this one using TedJam instead.

Fair enough. However, they should release the footage regardless. Especially since 4 people got shot, 2 of which were bystanders, and that this was over a cheap fare. Cops are pretty untrustworthy.

Probably because there was no knife in the footage.

So Israel deployed snipers using lethal ammunition to target protesters with excessive force. In this case, a US citizen. For some reason, this event reminds me of the Boston Massacre. Protesting the slaughter means you get slaughtered too.

I’m guessing we’ve abandoned all pretext of a red line that Israel can cross and they’re free to do whatever, and the whole situation just feels like we’ve decided that we’re on the side of evil because we keep supporting this. Might as well start putting skulls on our caps.

Abuse doesn’t usually fix anything.

Judge Judy. I like this modification of the phrase.

The purpose of a system is what it does.

Cops are the ones who think skin contact can cause an OD.

He was impeached for it, which is charging him with the crime.

In part because traditional farms scale better than aeroponics or hydroponics. In part because farms don’t pay for the environmental damage they cause. Because of these two points, there is little incentive to industrialize aeroponics or hydroponics.

What is true right now is that traditional farms use more water, fertilizer, and space, cause more environmental damage, but require less labor. And the labor problem can be mitigated with robotics, if we’re willing to invest in that.

With an adverse event rate of 0.06%. Meaning only 33 per million people required hospitalization.

The device you’re thinking of might be a peltier or thermoelectric cooler (TEC). But yes. They’re way less efficient than a vapor compression refrigerator, though.

Oh man, been doing that for 10 years!
