They can argue against the employer’s claim and prove they weren’t fired for cause. My former employer lied to unemployment and and it worked in my favor. Either way they can appeal a decision and should start consulting attorneys immediately.

Yeah, true in many cases. The post was about Cameron so that’s the only director I’m addressing at the moment but the industry is definitely filled with people using their “art” to excuse their bad and often abusive behavior like you said. There’s a lot of very concentrated power to abuse.

Cameron has an awful reputation for how he treats people on set and you really see it start to come out here pretty quickly . He’s hostile and dismissive the moment any criticism is mentioned whether it be from Roland Emerich when he tells the reporter to “move on”, proving the “overbearing” criticism right, or that anyone who criticizes his transfers as needing to “move out of mom’s basement”. His films are often awe-inspring but he’s been called “a nightmare to work with” and “autocratic” on set.

Cool! It would be nice to hear directly from them about their research and how this instance fits into it but at least we have the their results and this interview to give an overall perspective.

Try replacing the batteries. That’s often the reason for this type of thing.

Thanks for this. I love Peertube but definitely find search to be something that holds it back from being more widely adopted.

Excellent movie and currently free to view on Kanopy which you only a library card to sign up for.

“attracting” companies like Intel that are on the BDS boycott list is not really a good look for Linux.

Prior to Oct 7, Gaza had one of if not the highest densities of rooftop solar panels in the world. The IOF has obviously reduced that through their bombing campaign. Hamas and being “woke” have nothing to do with this.

Thank you, that’s an important distinction. I hope they can be trusted to live up to that. However it still feels l pretty problematic to bring them in and would be a lot of opting in to debate and implement. It remains a pretty big violation of user privacy and trust and it says here:

As if that weren’t bad enough, preparations for the sale went poorly, and it seems large categories of Tumblr posts that weren’t supposed to be sold were added to the mix anyway. That data includes:

Private posts from public accounts

Posts on deleted or suspended accounts

Unanswered asks

Private answers

Explicit posts

Posts from partner accounts, like ad campaigns where Tumblr doesn't own the rights. (Apple is specifically named here.) 

One advantage over wordpress is that it avoids bringing its parent company, Automatic, into the Fediverse.

From Wikipedia:

In February 2024, Automattic announced that it would begin selling user data from Tumblr and WordPress to Midjourney and OpenAI.

That’s scarily accurate and funny like the Onion. Isn’t that what the machines did in the Matrix? Maybe this is how it all starts

That’s a pretty accurate summary from my understanding as well, especially in times when the power is cut such as the current siege.

That’s a good point. I generally copy the title verbatim from the article but as you’ve pointed out it’s a bit misleading. This is definitely not magic.

I’ve heard a lot about Palestinians using solar to power several electronic devices in Gaza but it was primarily from Arab media sources like Al Jazeera. While this was on the much more corporate and mainstream news it was easy to miss without actively looking for it. You bring up a good point and I wonder if there’s more use of solar energy happening there, especially in dire conditions, that we’re missing out on as it’s not typically covered by major news sources. Hopefully we’ll be reading more stories like this in the future.

It says the technology is similar but doesn’t get into any specific comparison so I don’t exactly read it the same way. This is a very brief and basic article that may not answer all your questions. I’m sure there is more to come.

It does go on to say:

According to the study, the device is more efficient than other existing atmospheric water generators because it uses a “novel rotating operational strategy, in which one module works in the desorption, while the others work in the adsorption simultaneously … to keep the device harvesting water continuously.”

The technology could also be used for purposes ranging from dehumidification to agriculture irrigation to thermal management for electronic devices.

It also mentions similar devices being used in areas such as Sand Branch Texas outside of Dallas. Your question is import and and while I can’t answer it as thoroughly as I’d like I imagine these issues were in consideration when working on this and whether or not they’ll be successful is something we’ll find out soon.

Would be interested in hearing more from the community.

Haha. Maybe not the inventors but, given the high price of this technology, it seems like someone along the supply chain did.

Thank you. And those are only the confirmed dead. There are thousands more missing and presumably dead under the rubble.
