I think the idea of the government banning entire websites (or really any information in general) is horrifying. The fact that so many people in America seem to be enthusiastic or at least indifferent to new forms of government censorship shows how far along we are to complete fascism. Information is meant to be free, regardless of whether you agree with it or not. The fact that’s we’re having these conversations is disgusting.

Technoguyfication@sh.itjust.worksto Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL about powerships, special purpose ships on which a power plant is installed to serve as a power generation resource until a local power plant is built or until high demand in power supply is overEnglish19·6 months agoGreat! There’s plenty of precedent for floating nuclear reactors. Just look at any modern aircraft carrier or navy submarine. The US Navy operates hundreds of nuclear reactors at sea with a perfect safety record.

Look at any modern aircraft carrier or naval submarine. Many of them are able to be connected to shore and power nearby buildings in emergencies.

I used to go to subway because I knew exactly what I wanted and asked for it, now their menu is unrecognizable.
Technoguyfication@sh.itjust.worksto Privacy@lemmy.ml•I just learned about The Work Number, what are other methods of employee, medical, or financial data collection can I opt out of?12·11 months agoYou don’t need a contract. In the United States, anyone can sue anyone for anything. No laws need to have been broken nor contracts breached.

Operating system and CPU architecture are useful for sites to serve the correct binaries when a user is downloading an application. I know you could just give them all the options, but the average idiot has no idea what the difference between ARM and x86 is, or whether they have a 64 bit system. Hell, I wouldn’t even trust some users to accurately tell me what operating system they’re using.
