Finally, Trump’s Alarming Mental Decline Has Become a Big Media Story
  • I think it's going to get worse after he passes, because right now he has an active presence with its own will that his henchmen sort of have to listen to. After he goes, everyone around him is going to start doing some heinous shit "in his memory" or "because he would have wanted it".

  • Ex developer at Bethesda quit his job after 14 years and made this heavy metal horror game as a solo dev with no publisher
  • What specifically are you disagreeing with? Bad games are bad largely due to design and monetization reasons, both of which developers don't participate in deciding. But, they do witness all of the good decisions that get cut from the design. Buggy games are one thing you can partially attribute to developers, but saying Bethesda devs have a net negative credential without explaining is willfully obtuse and borderline troll behavior.

  • "Loss" but it's a Red State
  • I mean they've clearly seen it before, just asking if this version came from the same creator as the original. I wondered the same thing. Also, way to not answer the question in a very verbose way lol

  • World's oceans near critical acidification level: Report
  • Is there a link to the study being referenced? I couldn't find any citations. Ocean acidification is worth talking about, but this article is sensational as heck. Constant use of dire language ("safe limit ... exceeded", "crucial threshold ... breached", "safe boundaries ... crossed", "sustainable levels ... exceeded", "close to the danger limit") with no values explained or interpreted for the reader and only vague references to imminent catastrophe.

    Maybe it's talking about this new NOAA dashboard, it's hard to tell, but I think this was a much better read:

  • I thought it was satire, before I look to the source.
  • It's not as uncommon as you might expect -- here is a list for the curious. And I don't mean to denegrate nuclear energy as a power source; it is vastly better than fossil fuels and safe when done correctly -- I have participated in the safe generation of nuclear power. But the ramifications of it being done incorrectly are severe to say the least, and everyone should be aware that we do commonly have issues with it, especially in aging facilities. We commonly extend plants decades beyond what their initial construction planned for.

    Edited to say I just realized you said meltdowns, not radioactive leaks, which I do agree with. Sorry for confusion

  • I thought it was satire, before I look to the source.
  • This isn't true -- radioactive gases were leaked into the surrounding area. The containment vessel remained intact, and NRC concluded that no measurable harm was done, but there was definitely a release and that's why it was such a big deal. They evacuated children and pregnant women from the area in response.
