That's how Swiss politics work. If you can get 100000 voters to sign a petition it triggers a referendum. And that's basically how any opposition to such a project is expected to proceed.

A single user may use different cookies depending on the device they use so either way it's unreliable.

I have a hard time believing you can transfer 20% of the power through the upper deck without rethinking the whole structure.

I hope they actually try, it's going to be a hell of a show.

lol

I call bullshit.

Their is no way this valve cost $11,000. A quick google search for PEEP valves for respirators sow that they sell for a few dollars, 20 at most.

It seems unlikely that any company would sue in such circumstances, it would be a PR nightmare.

If the story was true prices would most likely be listed in euros.

When this 3d printed valves story appeared a few days ago those exact figures were cited on Reddit as a joke.

How they ended up presented as "Facts" on TheVerge is anyone's guess.

Here is something else that oil company know and keep secret.

The unexploited oil reserves in the world are at least twice as big as we think.

I feel that this everything over HTTPS trend is a scam, I don't know how or why yet, I just feel it.

Perhaps it makes the surveillance tooling more uniform and easier to develop/maintain.

The argument that HTTPS is always available and not filtered is just wrong, anyone who has experience working with large corporations knows that clients use local * certificates and everything is decrypted by the firewall and then re-encrypted. Making HTTPS slow af and sometimes plain broken.

I guess someone will implement a full HTTPS stack in js and announce HTTPS over HTTP to go around this "problem".

I don't understand those single header libraries. Anyone writing code in c or c++ knows how to link a library. It's really annoying when writing code for a platform with limited ram.

You have to understand that my apparent is older than Dallas, Installing AC would be very complicated and expensive. Adapting buildings to the changing climate will take time, rushing it could be disastrous to old buildings.

Mandatory AC is not the solution but many other solutions are being deployed. The first massive heatwave happened in 2003, it wasn't as hot as this summer but took us by surprise and caused over 15,000 death in France, around 70,000 in Europe. Compare this to 1,500 death in the record breaking heatwave of this summer.

According to the cern website it is actually 50km but on a much smaller pipe. The total volume 15000 cubic meter. For a 11 feet wide tunnel it would be about 1.7 km long.
