We don’t know what molecular mechanism creates the pressure.

No one really knows how osmosis works.

How is a microchip edible? Big as a sand grain? How does it work? How long has this tech existed? How many microchips have I eaten? Do they stop working if I eat them?

It’s just a ship dropping out of warp a safe distance from our system. While inconvenient, it’s considered best practice to drop out well away from the system’s center to shed the particles you’ve accumulated in your warp bubble during transit. They are extremely energetic and can cause immense damage if released irresponsibly close to an inhabited planet. This is especially true when visiting a primitive world that hasn’t set up any sensible warp safety systems.

Ah I remember this. In 2016 I didn’t know what RT was but I really liked their coverage, mostly because NPR and any mainstream American media wouldn’t cover Bernie in a positive manner. Got a bit of whiplash in 2017 from that.

Aren’t there already a billion roaches living in any given sewer system?

This is how it’s done in Korea, cameras everywhere and signs telling you where they are. The built-in gps systems in newer cars also have all the camera locations within their maps. It’ll warn you by dinging if you’re speeding ahead of a camera and give you a happy ding-ding if you pass the camera while driving under the limit. Seems to work fairly well, although it’s kind of annoying on their highways as everyone seemingly races to the next camera where they then rapidly slow down, then speed up, again and again and again.

Oh and cops don’t pull people over. I never saw it and drove many miles over several different visits.

I don’t know why y’all are arguing about fruit. I have a hunch that there’s some fructose in high fructose corn syrup, which is in just about every processed sweet tasting thing made in the USA. That’s probably contributing to obesity a bit more than peaches, ffs.

Guess it just malfunctioned and blew up

I posted the Al Jazeera video analysis yesterday. The conclusions of both videos don’t seem entirely contradictory. I find AP’s analysis as credible as Al Jazeera’s, although it did look like Al Jazeera was correct when they showed that the missile in question was hit by an Iron Dome missile. Regardless, if that was the case, I wouldn’t fault the IDF for shooting down a missile over Gaza that was destined for Israeli territory. Also possible the missile just exploded by itself. Either way, seems so unlikely the warhead survived either incident and very unlucky the warhead fell where it did.

The first and second statements are true, but I’m unconvinced of your conclusion. Even if they are biased, the video analysis appears to be legit.

Dude, that exact missile shown in your video “misfiring” was in the Al Jazeera video. In the latter, they show how that missile was intercepted by an iron dome missle and was very much blown apart. Perhaps by some crazy chance the warhead remained intact and just fell into the hospital parking lot and exploded, which seems very unlikely, although possible. So with this data, I’d bet that whatever exploded at the hospital wasn’t a missile or part of a missile. Sooo what was it?

I’ve been reading their articles for years and haven’t noticed false information or any significant bias. Care to explain your position?

Edit 2 (a day later): AP did their own video analysis and came to slightly different conclusions: https://lemmy.world/post/7113210

Tl;dw: Decent video evidence shows that the rocket the IDF claims hit the hospital was in fact intercepted and destroyed by the iron dome missle defense system. Thus it’s unlikely the hospital was hit by an errant missle fired by Hamas or other Palestinian groups.

Edit 1: If there was another missile, wouldn’t it be seen in the video like the other missiles?

Oh sure just let me call up my buddies in the IDF and Mossad, give me a minute /s

Dude, someone could just write the plans after the attack happened so they matched what happened…

It seems particulate matter was reducing the impact of increasing CO2. The rate of warming increased as countries around the world cleaned up their air.

There are a number of factors driving the acceleration of warming. While the world has made real progress in slowing down the growth of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas emissions, they have yet to peak and decline. And on top of this, we are reaping the results of what the climate scientist James Hansen calls our “Faustian bargain” with air pollution. For decades, air pollution from sulfur dioxide and other hazardous substances in fossil fuels has had a strong temporary cooling effect on our climate. But as countries around the world have begun to clean up the air, the cooling effect provided by these aerosols has fallen by around 30 percent since 2000. Aerosols have fallen even more in the past three years, after a decision to largely phase out sulfur in marine fuels in 2020. These reductions in pollution on top of continued increases in atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations mean that we are encountering some of the unvarnished force of climate change for the first time.

Honest question:

If they’re bulldozing lodgings and putting up apartments instead of building new single family dwellings, isn’t that helping the housing crisis by supplying higher density housing? Like you can house more people with less land?

I read the report you mentioned and I don’t think this accident is a good comparison because the people in the Titan went from 1 atm to 400 atm while the victims of the Byford Dolphin accident went from 9 atm of pressure to 1 atm. Three (possibly four) of them were intact and died because all the fat in the blood suddenly precipitated, completely stopping circulation. Another guy was blasted through an opening that was much smaller than he, and was very much discombobulated as a result.

There’s an order of magnitude difference between the incidents in pressure differentials and it was more like an instantaneous compression in the Titan than an explosive decompression like the Dolphin. So whatever happened in the Titan probably left an entirely different mess than that seen in the dolphin autopsy.
