Olympic organizers have touted plans to cool rooms in the Athletes Village, which will house more than 15,000 Olympians and sports officials over the course of the games, using a system of cooling pipes underneath the floors.

The average high in Paris on Aug. 1 is 26 degrees Celsius (79 degrees Fahrenheit). The objective is to keep the rooms between 23-26 degrees (73-79 degrees Fahrenheit). The rooms will also be equipped with fans.

That could be a tad warm depending on sun exposure.

In 1993, a noose was left on a Black worker’s desk, and the following year he was told to “Go back to Africa.”

Oh yeah not subtle.

This worker, along with others, was consistently passed over for promotions in favor of less-qualified individuals.

In the early 2000s, another Black employee found the racial slur “coon” written on his work forms and “KKK” etched on his lunchbox. He was even ordered to submit a handwriting sample to prove he did not write it himself. The lawsuit states that one manager continued to refer to Black people as “colored” well into the 1990s, and another manager told a plaintiff that “women should be at home having kids.

Been a minute since I posted this:

Frame Canada: Wendell Potter spent decades scaring Americans. About Canada. He worked for the health insurance industry, and he knew that if Americans understood Canadian-style health care, they might… like it. So he helped deploy an industry playbook for protecting the health insurance agency. https://www.npr.org/2020/10/19/925354134/frame-canada

Those are such small things. Not even sure you can do some because of the way mileage is calculated - pretty sure part of it is “accelerate from this speed to this speed in this time, so many times”.

Really? I thought facebook martketplace was the big one.

There’s no barrier? I thought they’d be in a cell with the person watching outside.

It went about how you would expect the hundreds of times I watched it happen.

So what exactly happened?

When a new car model with a new engine comes out, is it all at once? Why don’t they put out the new engine in bits and pieces? Not how it works.

3 years is nothing for this kind of change. Things take way more time than you think.

R&D, engineering, manufacturing process changes, supply chain changes (I think this pretty much requires hybrid) all the way from mining, etc takes time. The world can’t change on a dime.

not supported by the VAST majority of home use software

Just want to say most people only need a browser, and it’s only going to continue on that path. That’s why ChromeOS works.

Doesn’t it use less system resources?

When Windows 10 isn’t supported anymore, better to use Linux than have an unsecure computer or buy a new computer.

Listening to the audio, he knew exactly what he was doing and took absolute glee in being a “cyber terrorist”. This wasn’t some random mischief, he was a serious prick who deserves the prison time.

*Should be supervision for the rest of his life. Psychopath like this, there’s a good chance he will try swatting or hacking whoever prosecuted him.

Can we convince people that Andrew Wakefield, Jenny McCarthy and RFK, Jr. cause autism?

Not autism. They cause death.

It has the possibility of setting your mind right though, in terms of deciding what you want and desire/will to stick to it. Only you can say if it’s right for you.

What year did you go?

By German Street signs you mean the street names are German, or the “stop” sign is “stoppen”? I want pics before I believe that.

We’re counting Mexico as an oil country?

Well I think she’s gonna have her hands full on violence.

So he does it while pouring over documents, in a basement, where no one sees him. Or the iirc large amount of food he ate and mead he drank in the Hobbit after a day out. Doesn’t add up.
