Fukushima fish with 180 times legal limit of radioactive cesium fuels water release fears
  • There is a difference between contaminated water, like in Fukushima, and regular non-contaminated cooling water. There should be no radioactive contaminants in the water that the French nuclear power plants release.

  • How has Hot filter been changed on Lemmy version 0.18.3?
  • Yes and no, it is your instance's backend that is responsible for this behavior. Once your instance is up-to-date, you should not see these old results any more. No need to wait for all other servers 😉

  • Ubisoft reportedly deleting customer accounts with purchased games if they have been inactive for too long
  • Sure, but that isn't how it works under GDPR. You don't need to prove the information should be deleted, you need to prove the information must be kept. To give an example, the company I work for deals with long-lived contracts (often 20 years or more), and once they end we are legally allowed to keep the information for about 5 more years. After that we need to remove it.

  • Ubisoft reportedly deleting customer accounts with purchased games if they have been inactive for too long
  • Something like this might have to be done to comply to GDPR. I'm not sure about the details, but I do know a company cannot keep personal information for longer than they need. At some point, I guess that would probably translate to removing old and unused accounts.

  • always try and get my PR merged before anyone else
  • Are you expecting a developer to test everything every time they commit? Thoroughly testing even a small application or feature subset will take up quite a bit of time. You also want devs to commit often, so it is easy to roll back an approach that didn't pan out, or just to go back and figure out what change caused something to stop working. If you end up committing only a few times per week because everything needs to be thoroughly tested, I'm not convinced it is a good approach.

  • First 3D printer advice
  • In terms of software, there are plenty of options but I use Fusion 360 for anything CAD. It is a professional tool that you can use for free for personal use. Blender works well for more artistic things, or organic shapes, and is also free.

    In terms of hardware, I don't have enough knowledge or experience to help you. I'm running a Creality CR-10 V3 and very happy with the results, but I'm not sure it is your ideal printer.

    What you should definitely do is figure out what kind of materials you want to use, and how large you want the print bed to be. Those are going to influence your choice a lot, and it will help someone with more knowledge to recommend something 😀

  • Breakfast suggestions?
  • My pleasure! And unless the rules are different where you live, you don't need to see a doctor or get a prescription. Here (Belgium) you can easily get them from pharmacies or online.

  • Breakfast suggestions?
  • Welcome to the club of lactose intolerance! If, like me, you really like dairy, there is a very easy way to cheat the system... (Seriously, how would anyone survive without cheese?)

    You can get lactase tablets. Those are little pills full of lactase, which is the protein that breaks down lactose into digestible simple sugars. All you have to do is take a lactase tablet when you eat anything with lactose, and you can continue to live your life like before.

    Lactose intolerance is not black and white either. You may have some tolerance left, which may be enough to eat your cereal with milk, if that is the inly lactose you have during the day. Your tolerance can also fluctuate over time. For example, the first time I had an issue with lactose it only lasted a few weeks.

  • Surveillance advertising in Europe: The adtech industry tracks most of what you do on the Internet. This file shows just how much.
  • While I agree that advertisers go much too far, the 650k labels figure used here is a bit manipulative. They make it seem like the advertisers have 650k different bits of information on everyone, but clearly they don't.

    The examples they provide of labels show that they are combinations of multiple things. For example they show a label "France + Land Rover", which really are two different bits of information combined into one label. If they would have an exhaustive list of all countries (about 200) and the most popular car brands (let's say about 20), that would be around 4000 labels, or 0.6% of the 650k labels. If they add a third characteristic, that number would explode.

  • Here's a picture of the Orion nebulae I took [OC]
  • Wow, that's amazing! Did you need to something weird to get that result? I have been considering getting a 600mm lens for a while now, is that really all it takes to get these kinds of results?
