Begun the Drone War has.
Begun the Drone War has.
After the longest drought in recent memory, some over at deathlist.net see Jimmy Carter as the key log to unleash a torrent of deaths in the latter half of 2024…
Nobody is asking for it, but that’s not the purpose: the purpose is to stir up opposition.
I suspect a significant portion of the population will be indifferent to the proposal. At best, they’ll shrug and say, ‘Sure, makes sense if that’s what’s needed,’ without bothering to think it through fully.
More liberally minded people react with justified opposition to the proposal. At that point, the Conservatives will rally the indifferent against ‘the woke’. They hope to gain support by convincing people they have a common enemy.
“Labour’s slightly left of me, Reform is to the right, here I am, stuck right of middle I’m screwed.” - Rishi Sunak, probably.
Or, AIs who are programmed not to lie will start writing, “Hi, I’m AI,” to avoid detection.
To be fair, the workers were probably used to calling it Twitterylene.
It’s only erased £85b when you consider the £300m we’re saving every week /s
I think the median average temperature is around 2,200°C.
The Earth has a radius of 6,371km, giving a volume of 1.08e13km^3.
A sphere of half this volume would have a radius of 5,057km. Within the Earth, this sphere would sit at a depth of 6,371 - 5,057 = 1,314km.
From this chart, the temperature at that depth is around 2,200°C, so half the volume of the Earth has a temperature above that, and half a temperature below it.
618ml equates exactly to 600ml + 3% - maybe manufacturers add 3% on top because that’s the maximum allowable variance in quantities?
From a quick search, 412ml and 515ml both seem pretty common too.
Tonight on Whose Fault is it Anyway?..
Whilst that’s a possible explanation, correlation does not imply causation. There are many other potential contributing factors (increased loneliness, economic hardship, acceptability of suicide, changes to how deaths by misadventure vs suicide are recorded, etc) and more research will be needed to identify which, if any, played a role in the observed change.
