issue I've seen very few people talking about is the widespread adoption (in my country at least) of touch-only card payment terminals with no physical number buttons. Not only do these devices offer no tactile affordances, but the on-screen numbers move around to limit […]

Nuclear Explosions for Large Scale Carbon Sequestration
Confronting the escalating threat of climate change requires innovative and large-scale interventions. This paper presents a bold proposal to employ a buried nuclear explosion in a remote basaltic seabed for pulverizing basalt, thereby accelerating carbon sequestration through Enhanced Rock Weathering (ERW). By precisely locating the explosion beneath the seabed, we aim to confine debris, radiation, and energy while ensuring rapid rock weathering at a scale substantial enough to make a meaningful dent in atmospheric carbon levels. Our analysis outlines the parameters essential for efficient carbon capture and minimal collateral effects, emphasizing that a yield on the order of gigatons is critical for global climate impact. Although this approach may appear radical, we illustrate its feasibility by examining safety factors, preservation of local ecosystems, political considerations, and financial viability. This work argues for reimagining nuclear technology not merely as a destructive force but as a potential catalyst for decarbonization, thereby inviting further exploration of pioneering solutions in the fight against climate change.

[Doctor Who spoilers] I guess having the Jodie cameo was to see off the accusation that she was being "replaced" by another blonde woman. That was one of the better non-sensical moments in that episode tbf

There's a line connecting Hunt's NI cuts and the electoral system for mayoral races and the BBC management and the EHRC. The Starmer/McSweeney theory of politics just isn't interested in naming, let alone undoing, Tory institutional capture

This is a step beyond I got, but I believe it checks out. A (cis) lesbian cannot have any protections on the basis of her lesbian sexual orientation if she's discriminated against because her partner is a trans women, because the court has defined their relationship as a straight one.

The uncropped cover of DJ Shadow’s first album features a blurry cat in the foreground. Photographer Brian Cross meant to focus on the record store kitty—but accidentally measured in feet instead of meters. Instead of a cat, we got this iconic shot of Chief Xcel and Lyrics Born in a blond wig.
