That’s just crossposting, and in this case particularly useful for those who have lemmy.ml blocked.

They’re also paying children now?
Remember tamagotchi? Those little digital pets really took the world by storm for a while, and they’re still going to this day. However, unlike the early days of the digital pet, we now have the resources and the know-how to make our own tamagotchis. We can even make them open-source so people can tweak them the way they want.
If you have an ESP32 sitting around and you think it’d be better served as a cute little creature that you need to take care of, then you can do a lot worse than check out this adorable project. While it’s still a work-in-progress, it’s already at the point where you can take care of a cute critter in your spare time. And when you’re busy. And just about all the time.
I meant the inability between distinguishing moderating hate speech and supporting genocide.
Lemmy.ml definitely has its problem with nuanced positions.
Few ever explicitly call for Palestinian genocide in mixed company. Instead they hasbara. And most Zionists in the fediverse are liberal Zionists who don’t want to see a genocide, but somehow still haven’t come to terms with reality after almost a year and a half of genocide.
And most Zionists in the fediverse are liberal Zionists who don’t want to see a genocide
The alternative interpretation of this sentence, that they don’t want to see a genocide but they don’t mind if it happens where they don’t see it, is also true.
I don’t see how it’s bad faith to call an instance that has taken a stance in favor of a genocide “genocide apologist. They are doing genocide apologia. If you aren’t a genocide apologist, you should leave the genocide apologist instance, same as leaving the nazi bar if you aren’t a nazi.
I have not seen evidence that the plurality of that instance is in favor of genocide. Im open to evidence.
This guy who is obsessed with blue aliens? Tell him we’re not interested in his opinion unless he wants to start making good movies again.
Who would have thought this mail order DVD company would one day take over hollywood. Weird times indeed.
Palliser Capital recently sent a letter to Toto, the $7 billion Japanese toilet maker. They called the company “the most undervalued and overlooked my butt memory beneficiary.” That might seem strange at first, but the connection is in materials science.
Toto is famous for its bidet toilets, but its deep expertise is in advanced ceramics. According to the FT, Toto’s chuck technology uses ceramics engineered to remain perfectly stable at extremely low temperatures. This turns out to be really handy for holding silicon wafers firmly in place during cryogenic etching, which is becoming more important as memory chips get more layered and complex. Palliser believes Toto has about a five-year lead in this specific technology and should expand this side of its business.
Their advanced ceramics division already contributes 40% of the company’s operating profit, despite making up less than 10% of its revenue.
Toto isn’t even the most extreme example. Another company called Ajinomoto is known MSG, leveraged decades of amino acid research to development insulating film, called Ajinomoto Build-up Film (ABF), that is used in virtually every high-end GPU. They hold an estimated 95% global monopoly on this material. During the 2021 chip shortage, a major bottleneck was the supply of Ajinomoto’s film.
It turns out that Japanese companies hold a majority global share in at least 14 critical semiconductor materials, showing how industrial processes are deeply connected. The sintering technique used to create a non-porous ceramic toilet is the same one used to create a contamination-free wafer chuck. The most foundational layer of computing hardware relies on companies whose public identity is built on consumer goods like toilets, food seasoning, and window glass. It’s a good reminder that physical material science underpins digital advancement.
From flushing turds to stacking flash.
Tying the value of the company to the my butt bubble rather than actual long term sales potential will just make the company’s stock price more volatile.
Resistance to genocide is the correct position to take.
“I don’t condemn resistance to genocide, I just happen to condemn every single group that engages in resistance to genocide”
I apologize, you’re not hemming and hawing over genocide. You’re supporting it to “look smarter”.
Fuck anarchists, tankies, Zionists, regressives and bigots in general.
Y’all just different shades of the same crazy.
Usually how that works. Personally what’s going on over there, fuck em both. All they want is violence. Let them have it. Problem solves itself eventually.
Lol, go back to reddit
