reprap goes brrrr

Those who understand history are condemned to watch other idiots repeat it

It’s possible he was assassinated.

People forget there was around a dozen actual documented assassination attempts, the first in 1931.

That’s always the problem with being in power, there’s almost certainly someone who wants to get rid of you, but the more paranoid you behave about it the number of people who want you gone increases.

I doubt it will go very far, there’s been a court ruling that GBnews is allowed to host “current affairs” programs, and that impartiality rules don’t really apply to those. https://www.judiciary.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/GB-News-v-Ofcom.pdf

You don’t even have to go further than the article:

Approached for comment, Corbett-Dillon replied with a lengthy statement in which he said he stood by his comments. He compared his support for England to preserve its “historic English character” with his backing for Israel’s right to be a Jewish-majority state, or Japan to be a Japanese-majority society.

Close, Rupert Murdoch

There’s some irony in that sponsor block has to block four segments of the video.

I’m not convinced a president Vance would be any better.

You’d need a Case orange level event to get someone not terrible.

Reminds me of “‘How to murder your husband’ writer sentenced for murdering husband”

Depends on how great the tremors are.

Some cameras have sensor shift in body stabilization (IBIS), where it moves the sensor to compensate for shakes. I shoot an old Pentax k30 that has it.

Also a larger heavier camera could help dampen tremors?

On the camera you used, modern colour film is pretty “slow”, in that it has a low sensitivity (usually iso 100-400), so requires the shutter to be open longer. Digital will let you use a higher sensitivity, thus a faster shutter speed, so there’s less time for movement to affect the photo.

What a garbage article.

The article lionises RCT, the gives us

The data alone seems to suggest cannabis medicines are relatively safe. But this may not be reflected in real-world use.

So it’s okay to substitute “real world use” for side effects but not effects?

Currently, there is a mismatch between the research evidence on medicinal cannabis – mainly short-term trials and CBD formulations – and real-world use, which is longer term and often using high-THC products.

So they admit nobody is actually doing, or paying for, studies on the correct medication.

We need more research on cannabis medicines, particularly for conditions with limited alternative treatments, and monitoring over longer periods.

As the TGA conducts a review of medical cannabis prescribing in Australia, these findings should inform future regulation.

“we know fuck all else works for what people are using this for, but it should still be banned”.

What vindictive assholes.

Probably not, Kerensky’s government arguably wasn’t very competent, he was printing a lot of paper money, launched a doomed offensive in WWI, and accidentally turned the military into a democracy. Although he was arguably in an impossible position that was doomed no matter how competent he was.

When did military leaders become so spineless?

Wellesley must be spinning in his grave (he probably was already at the lack of hats in parliament, but that’s besides the point)

Mecha are useful in that they combine the “shining armour” and “gallant steed” of classic stories into a single object.

I only know about this because of zero escape lol.

One box, I’m not messing with anything powerful enough to predict the future.

There’s paid maternity leave for the self employed in the UK, this is just sexism.

Death.

The fact that society puts so little effort into curing it is insane to me.

Communities only get populated after someone on your instance subscribes to that community.
