Researching this doesn't prevent renewables being researched or rolled out? I think the nuclear scientists developing this might be better researching this as opposed to researching fission reactors or researching renewables as this is likely their area of expertise.

Fusion is a long shot but if it was achieved it would be world changing (hopefully for the better)

A literal caltrop

This one hits different; the hand writing is very similar to my late father's, aside from the squigglyness of it. Though in the latter months of his life it gained that feature as well.

Alcohol is generally well tolerated in reasonable quantities, the common ink cap mushroom is edible, but if eaten alongside alcohol it becomes poisonous

Personally this has been the most feature rich/open source one I could find, and it's what I ended up going for, there's an opensource app store, direct integration with gadgetbridge, a decent always on display much like the amazfit bip S, which also means a long battery life.

Now this is a DND session I want to watch

If you left them with their batteries empty then the batteries are likely actually dead.

If you're going to leave a device untouched for an extended period, make sure the battery is atleast 50% or more full before doing so.

Tbh the advice provided is already pretty accurate, as to how; there's a non zero chance that a friend may have sent you a RAT (remote admin tool/remote access Trojan), these are basically the best back door to someone's computer you can have, normally you want to have physical access to someone's computer to install them or have a user run it with elevated privileges, (there are other ways as well, such as spoofing a jpg, other methods of remote code execution). These tools will allow you to access there computer, files, keylog, steal passwords, send popups, open and close the disk tray plus basically anything else you could do with access to the computer.

Basically follow other people's advice in regards to undoing this.

How many children do you interact with?

Heck, how many people do you interact with?

This feels like a completely biased view; if you were to ask my partner who is a secondary school teaching assistant/supports SEN kids, most of the children/teens being actual problems (and not just annoying someone who, by the sounds of it, doesn't like children to begin with), are the ones born to parents who don't give a fuck about encouraging creativety/individuality/imagination, either in combination with no discipline or overtly harsh discipline.

The ones that suffer harsh discipline are often as messed up as those who face absolutely no discipline, (ironically, often they overlap, many face absolutely no discipline most of the time to then have overtly harsh punishment when they push things too far), but make no mistake; the ones who face that early life are not the ones with parents who are encouraging them to be themselves, to use their imagination or to be individual. They are the ones that are forced to be independent because their parent is down the pub leaving them to sort tea for themselves, or the the ones whose home life is never stable with many different but no permanent parental figures.

Heck, I know a few people raised by hippies, even if they're not hippiesh themselves, they still show a greater appreciation for nature/reading, are generally quite well rounded individuals.

The people I knew who faced overtly strict upbringings, either ended up not having the backbone/social skills to navigate life, or going off of the rails when given the opportunity.

The key, as always, is balance; encourage your child to develop a sense of self (and by extension self worth, self respect and self reliance) while also teaching them that they need to respect others with the same respect that they are shown; if they aren't shown any respect then they'll have none for other people.

Children are in a constant state of learning and developing; that's why they are children; they are developing these skills as much as any other skill.

Or using any legacy hardware such as the playstation eyetoy camera, a usb keyboard with a built in piano keyboard, some old random TV tuner card

Then there's the hardware which windows only ever had 32bit drivers for, meaning even if you find the drivers on some obscure dodgy site they'll never work.

Then there's the whole bs of windows not allowing unsigned drivers.

None of these issues on Linux

I'm sure you know this, but that's exactly how a town got turned in to a EPA superfund site due to Dioxin contamination, because of a fuck up over chain of command for waste oil from the creation of napalm or pesticides(IIRC?). The guy running the spraying business didn't know, which I can believe, but the company that paid for him to dispose of it should've informed him.

Recently it's been Obtanium, basically it allows you to add apps which are hosted on GitHub/other app sources which don't have auto updating, and have them automatically check and offer to update!

It's been really useful for Lemmy clients (liftoff/Jerboa)/any android apps from:
