I think a better way to phrase it is that Jesus is very anit-exploitation of others.

I'm not sure I'd go so far as to say that Jesus is anti-private ownership of the means of production of goods and service. Capitalism can and has been done without it. Unfortunately people are scum and the free market tends to reward those who are able to successfully exploit others.

For all that offseason hype and hoopla, we Steelers sure have not looked too good these first 12 minutes or so

Y'know - I think stacking cinder blocks and some pavers on top would actually work just fine. Just angle the cinder blocks so the ones at the bottom have the holes poking out (and into the enclosure) and that should provide enough airflow to keep it from getting too hot in there.

Heck, you could probably angle them all that way except for the top ones. I haven't seen videos of battery fires, but unless they're like really really flammable, the fire shouldn't burn out from around the several inches of concrete that surrounds it.

Remember fire burns up so the pavers and concrete blocks at the top will be what are actually blocking the most.

It's just incredible what they can do with stem cell technology these days

And then there's those of us who stick 8-foot boards diagonally through their Honda Civics so a couple inches are sticking out the front passenger and rear driver windows.

Coincidentally, by far the most use my dad's pickup truck bed gets is when I borrow it from him to really load up at Home Depot.

The earth was in an ice age around 19,000 - 26,000 years ago - perhaps it started around then when everything was quite a bit cooler.

It probably is that popular among this crowd. There's options to self-host your own Bitwarden instance IIRC.

I've started migrating away from LastPass and am using Bitwarden for new projects personally. LastPass is way better than nothing, but I wouldn't recommend LastPass over Bitwarden these days.

 

According to a recent announcement, China will be imposing new regulations on the export of gallium and germanium, both of which are metals that are utilized in the production of computer chips and solar cells and are therefore vitally important. This action is seen as an escalation of the trade dispute that the United States and China are currently engaged in, and the trade dispute has been going on for a long time. The restrictions will begin to take effect on August 1, and the Chinese Ministry of Commerce has stated that their purpose is to “safeguard national security.” Despite this, the specifics of these limitations have not yet been made available to the public at this time.

 

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that state constitutions can protect voting rights in federal elections and state courts can enforce those provisions, in a key opinion that should safeguard the integrity of the 2024 election.

Build some vertical storage shelves underneath it! Make them run all the way up to where the U is, then drywall over the U or something so it isn't sticking out. Maybe even make a bigger covered space on top of the top shelf. Make the thing go all the way from the floor up to where the U meets, maybe some of those real dark aged bronze type metal supports that seem to be popular as finishes these days.

If it were me and everything else was fine every-wise, I'd try to match with what's already there. Go with what works and sit back with the peace of mind that you won't have to rip open your drywall a third time.

Nvidia's fairly consistently been pulling in $2-$4 per share on a TTM (source: https://www.macrotrends.net/stocks/charts/NVDA/nvidia/eps-earnings-per-share-diluted). At $430/share, folks seem to be projecting earnings are going to be about 5-15 times higher over the next decade or two. What seems more likely to me is that, while growth remains strong, growth won't remain 5-15 times higher strong, and the company's going to experience difficulty in leveraging their earnings into higher yields from upstream pricing pressure on the supply chain side, especially if chip foundries are operated in higher cost-of-business countries such as the United States, an embargoed China, or a Mexican city with more expensive access to raw materials.

Yeah, I do agree Beehaw won't be able to grow significantly if they keep doing things the way they're doing them right now. At present point, they're going to likely remain a more niche community long-term with how they're operating. Who knows though, maybe this is what they want. Lemmy would have to do something different though without a herculean moderation effort.

I reckon it'd depend significantly on the instance. Beehaw has a signup form reviewed by humans - measures like this are by no means perfect, but coupled with other bot detection software could help. If an instance developed a real issue with bots, other more strict instances could potentially ban up votes and comments from accounts on it.

At the very least, tracking instances that account interaction came from should be quite doable, so users part of more strict instances could filter out upvotes and comments from less strict instances if desired.
