Catholic practice of adolescent confirmation

this must be country-specific, because the way i know it, it happens at age when people still can be pressured by parents/grandparents (under 15 or so), it's about the only reason why it happens, and it marks the last time they are seen in church before marriage (formal requirement for catholic marriage), if at all (country secularizes and many ditch catholic marriage entirely). there's also very little on the "inside" (you're picking a saint and write an essay on them that nobody reads; unless you want to become a priest, it has absolutely zero bearing on your life)

They’re only about 40% efficient. Boom says the Superpower turbine will be about the same, and it’s up to the customer to bring the turbine up to 60% efficiency. And to limit the pollution and noise.

They also say that there's an future option for carbon capture, but they say a lot of things, this requires small chemical plant and no one is gonna make it work, and these gas turbines will stay just like this without heat recovery system and steam turbines

if these get delivered at all before crusoe craters, that is

i just assumed that mac users simply get a new mac when they run out of space

this is just another iteration of seo aiding in phishing. it sounds insane to me that people trust chatbots and that chatbot provider page is considered in any way "trusted"

that malicious domain is down now btw

it's hacky and wrong. or you could use different hardware, maybe from competition, because result isn't worth electricity it used

If anyone can figure out how to get exmilitary F15 for joyrides it's them. I guess Thiel would be fine without pretending as passenger, but Musk not, and learning this takes fuckton of effort, something he's allergic to. Either one of them having supersonic chauffeur that has to go everywhere their jet does is exact kind of nonsense i'd expect in this timeline, and i don't think that either is actually healthy enough to become a pilot in the first place

gpus as used for genai aren't really suitable for normal loads like aerodynamic simulations, genai uses low precision data like fp8, fp4, blackwells and such are optimized for it so hard that you can't really do anything else on this thing

"article" is entirely too charitable, this is a substack post
