I think they said there weren’t any ex-Twitter employees working on Threads.
I’m calling for a Lemmy blackout until the bean content returns!

Just saw what the AP reported:
The Navy went back and analyzed its acoustic data after the Titan submersible was reported missing Sunday. That anomaly was ‘consistent with an implosion or explosion in the general vicinity of where the Titan submersible was operating when communications were lost,’ according to the senior Navy official. The official spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss a sensitive acoustic detection system. The Navy passed on the information to the Coast Guard, which continued its search.
Seems like a more accurate analysis.
I’m guessing it was just a coincidence between the 96 hour mark and when the capable ROVs finally arrived on site. They deployed the ROV that discovered the debris in the early AM today. Based on the fact that info was already leaking prior to the coast guard announcement, it was probably known for several hours before being made public.
Edit: Yeah, they probably had reasonable suspicion that the sub was gone. But until they had evidence, continuing search and rescue seems like the prudent thing to do.
Yeah, I thought that was confusing as well. I’d be shocked if the navy wasn’t always recording. If the point of the system is defense, I’m sure it’s not down to Frank to flip the switch on when they think there’s going to be an attack.
Maybe by “listening” they meant reviewing the recorded data around that time?
I agree, the others are wrong.
Down to about 30 hours now.
For me, I’ve always struggled with the definition of free will. Is there even a will to be free? The voice in my head is just a story “I” tell myself. So really, I’m just this conscious presence. I can observe thoughts that manifest within that presence. But those thoughts aren’t under my control. They’re just occurring.
I remember watching a video from Sam Harris years ago that really brought this to the forefront. Think of a movie. Any movie. What is it? Why did you pick that movie? Did you have conscious control over what movie you picked? Or did it just pop into your consciousness?
Either everything is purely deterministic, purely random, or something in between. But on that spectrum, there really isn’t room for free will. Simply the illusion of it.
Supposedly they have electric heating. Hopefully that system is still operational.
3·1 year agoI remember my friend setting up a movie night and inviting me and my other friends when he found a copy. That certainly was an amusing surprise.
Yeah, I’m totally with you there!
I bought a 13" SurfaceBook 2 with the official Microsoft dock when it came out. I figured buying hardware from the company that makes the software would’ve given me the best experience.
After beginning to use the machine, I discovered that Microsoft’s own dock can’t even keep the machine powered under heavy load. The battery was discharging WHILE PLUGGED INTO THE WALL. I had to take breaks so that my computer wouldn’t shut down and could recharge.
I had been on Macs for years but decided to give MS a chance because Windows Subsystem for Linux looked pretty awesome. Needless to say, I’m back on a Mac.
