Here's my guess.

  1. Tumblr users as a demographic are closer to fedi users than the Facebook/Instagram masses.
  2. There just aren't that many Tumblr users anymore, at least compared to the overwhelming horde that is Threads. The threat of diluting the culture is just a lot lower.

What if she works hard and gets promoted?

The justice system will have actually succeeded in rehabilitating someone.

I'm the only one on my instance and I'm talking to you.

All renewable energy comes from the sun, which is a giant fusion reactor. Seems like it might be a good idea to study and understand the concept.

This is probably related to NY recently changing their rules regarding civil suits for sexual assault. The same change that prompted the Trump case.

I'm sure for a 17 year old in 2003, going after someone so wealthy and powerful seemed insurmountable. But the rule change seems to be allowing some victims to finally get some form of resitution.

Witcher 3 is probably up your alley.

Heat doesn't really exist at an individual particle level, it only describes the average kinetic energy of a large number of particles. "Normal" evaporation occurs because all the water molecules are jiggling around fast enough that sometimes some get knocked off at the top and fly away. The theory from this paper says that light can strike a single water molecule just right that it breaks off without help from the others.

Saying this is "without heat" means that the light isn't simply increasing the average kinetic energy at the top of the water and speeding up the rate of "normal" evaporation. They think it's specifically acting on a single molecule at a time.

I've never seen side mounted USB-C and HDMI before. It's a neat space saving idea, I wonder how their mechanical stability compares.

Doing this by hand is challenging but possible.

First you need a hex editor, not a text editor. xxd on linux will get you started but you might want something a little more user friendly.

Then look for a label for a value you know, xxd and other hex editors will show ascii text on the side. Hopefully you'll be able to identify the value (in hexadecimal, probably 4 bytes but could be 1, 2, or 8 as well) somewhere before or after the label. You might have to get familiar with endianness, two's compliment, and binary floating point before the numbers make sense.

Once you know how to read a value after a label you'll need to find some label for the information you don't know. If it isn't displayed in the program it might not have a super readable label.

I put a decent amount of time into shadow of mordor but didn't finish the story. The combat is fun and dynamic, there's lots of vertical traversal, assaulting strongholds is pretty cool. The nemesis system is silly but fun, it adds a lot of personality.

City improves on a lot of the batman mechanics and the variety of enemies goes up. I think it's the better of the two.

However, it is a very different game, moving from a metroidvania inspired small locale to a big open world. If you don't like traversing/exploring open worlds you might find it to be a downgrade. If you do, it's a blast and moving around the city is an absolute joy.

I have a few of these as well. Electric resistive heating like this is pretty safe. There's no control logic or anything, just a passive, high resistance wire. If a wire breaks it's going to just stop working. Unless you plug it in in the wrong country there's really no way for it to overheat.

Not to mention cats are pretty smart and will just leave when they're uncomfortable.
