One-neutron transfer can beat nuclear fusion in output, here's proof

Neutron transfer has always fascinated scientists, but this time it shocked them. They found that one-neutron stripping can produce output similar to nuclear fusion, one of the most powerful nuclear reactions known to mankind.

Hey @crunklord420 webdevving in TempleOS just got Travis Scott lit, me & @nroot now have full Code Page 437 font rendered on your browser, super improved from what Terry originally had for his website. We also render sprites as BMP.

Write the DolDoc in Ed() while viewing changes live, rsync the document to prod after writing, voila. You get the exact same thing in your browser. no gay markdown Electron shit needed for your live preview (take a look at https://aiwnios.com/#l100)

Honestly, I think the whole blocking feature is the Fediverse's greatest weakness. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for freedom of association, but given that at least one of the major ActivityPub implementations built it's entire existence around it means that we pretty much have a broken network and it locks people into echo-chambers. At least Nostr, despite it's flaws makes you judge everyone on an individual basis and not be at the whim of what your server admin wants you to see.

It looks like there are now three parts of the fediverse: the Mastodon side, the "free-speech side", and the instances that are allowed to federate with threads.

Is CouchDB any good? I really need a simple document-oriented DB because I'm fed up with mind-bending, nested queries, and I had a hard time installing MongoDB. I also rather using something that is FOSS or is at least open-core.

There are a lot of comments online to the effect that Biden isn't Biden. And the idea that he has body-doubles is really not that outrageous. If you believe the news, he's certainly not capable of making any real executive decisions alone, so what would be the harm of having a body-double do some of his public appearances?

If you send a body double and he gets assassinated, you cover it up and nothing changes, and that's not to mention medical emergencies.

Do you really think the most powerful oligarchy in the world is going to risk all of their plans on an elderly guy having a brain fart?

But when you start to have body doubles on one side, and hidden decision makers on the other, at some point you have to ask: is "President Biden" a meaningful entity at all?

Now it's less well known, but the same body double comments have been made about Trump (though I couldn't find the picture). And I would argue that for the most part, the same logic applies. Does THE GUY really have to be at every single rally and fundraiser?

But a much deeper question is: Why, if they have the choice of any body double or actor in the world, do Biden's people keep on choosing guys who can't make it through a sentence or up a flight of stairs?

Not only that, but why does Biden's administration seem dead set on adopting policies that are so obviously harmful and unpopular, that it's hard to see them as anything other than active campaigning for Trump.

The only hypothesis I've found which can actually answer these questions is that the entire Biden / Trump dialectic is simply a fabrication.

As the q-anons say "The Patriots are in control", I would say more that SOMEONE is in control, and they would like that you consider them a patriot.

The first insider testing build for God's Disdain has been submitted to Steam for review! It will go into testing as soon as it has been accepted and from there, we will be planning on how to expand the testing to those outside of the development team.

I am becoming the master of cooking things in the microwave. I no longer need to use a stove or oven. I was able to literally cook pasta and make this obscure Croatian dish with it.

The idea, that we live in a simulation is ridiculous 

@LukeAlmighty I think the fact that we can run simulations for things faster than they happen is a good indicator we are not in a simulation.
