Starlink v2 satelites will ruin science.
  • Not easily, perhaps. But it's certainly possible. We already have space technology for unfolding small packages into large sheets. Not to mention, you don't need a single 100m collection surface when you can accomplish similar things with many smaller surfaces spaced apart. See the Very Large Array.

  • Where is the analytics data supposed to go if you aren't hosting a service to store it? Are you expecting the author of this free and open source analytics platform to also provide free hosting and storage?

  • Gel-based male birth control is safe and effective, scientists report
  • This is not a great option for couples that ever touch eachother.

    Direct skin to skin contact with the area where the combination gel is applied will result in transfer of the testosterone in the study gel to other people. This may result in increased testosterone levels and unwanted side effects to women, children and other men. Special care must be taken to lessen the possibility of transferring testosterone to women (especially pregnant women), children, and other people you may come in close physical (skin to skin) contact with. Therefore, it is important that you and your partner take the necessary precautions to avoid direct skin to skin contact while you are taking part in this study.

    Sync for Lemmy v120 release notes. Notifications, revamped messaging and finally out of beta!
  • Thank you so much for the continued updates!

    Something about the fixes for usernames not showing up appears to have undone the fix for #122. I can see my username in plaintext for the current account even though I have hidden the display names.

  • Radicle: Open-Source, Peer-to-Peer, GitHub Alternative
  • Installing by piping from curl is pretty common and not a red flag in and of itself. Even Rust is installed this way. If you don't trust the URL, you also shouldn't trust any binary installers downloaded from that website.

  • Black body radiation was my thought as well. It may not be the average including the inner layers, but it's the average at the crust. About -1°F according to Wikipedia.

    To add to this, is probably hard because the composition of the interior of the earth is a lot of guesswork. We can only directly observe how much heat is coming out of it.

  • Governments spying on Apple, Google users through push notifications - US senator
  • Android and iOS don't let mobile apps run continuously in the background. If an app is closed or in the background, it generally can't talk to its own servers.

    Instead, Google and Apple provide a service that allows the apps' servers to push a message even if the app is closed.

  • Running Signal Will Soon Cost $50 Million a Year
  • If you take out the employer-side taxes and cost of benefits, maybe. A fair number of their employees must be software engineers, and that much compensation isn't unreasonable for expert software engineers.

  • Article 45 Will Roll Back Web Security by 12 Years
  • There is no way a user can know the website is real the first time it's visited, without it presenting a verifiable certificate. It would be disastrous to trust the site after the first time you connected. Users shouldn't need to care about security to get the benefits of it. It should just be seamless.

    There are proposals out there to do away with the CAs (Decentralized PKI), but they require adoption by Web clients. Meanwhile, the Web clients (chrome) are often owned by the same companies that own the Certificate Authorities, so there's no real incentive for them to build and adopt technology that would kill their $100+ million CA industry.

  • Need some help figuring out the best milk solution.
  • I have a Secura frother that sounds like it fits the bill. It's easy to use, makes 8oz of foam at a time, and it's dishwasher safe! I find that the foam is light enough to get most all of it out by pouring, alone.

    You'd have to take a look to see if you feel it's safe enough for your kids. It's not too different from an induction stove top. The pitcher isn't insulated and will get quite warm.
