It's not really the wattage that's an issue.
If it ran at 600 volts, it would only be 1 amp.

But at 12v, it's 50 amps of current.
Which is a lot.
And it's not massively peaky/bursty, so it needs to withstand that constantly.
Pretty sure something like 10-15mm² cross section of copper is needed for that, which is a thick cable.

But, this is also a problem that has been solved elsewhere. For whatever reason, manufacturers have settled in a terrible solution.

Oh, they do have psychological manipulation in mind.
There are 2 leading design types:
No clocks anywhere, designed to be difficult to navigate out of, designed to make the passage of time difficult to tell.
And open and bright with easy lines of sight, designed to allow gamblers to relax without leaving.

The former was developed by an ex-gambler that "turned their life around" into an architect that manipulates gamblers to gamble more. He studied the successful casinos, and gathered up all the techniques that makes gamblers gamble more.
The open layout was developed in response to this, and solely concentrates on making gamblers feel relaxed (or able to relax).

But lighting, layout, smells, sounds... Everything is accounted for.
Casino owners know the design of their casino is what makes gamblers gamble more

I hope they don't get over it.
I hope they realise what they are doing is illegal before it gets to the point that they do anything to the protesters.
And that any of them that do anything to the protesters never forget and never get over it.

If it was real pain, the body has ways of rejecting it

Static type checking ftw

AI is hype.
They've recently signed a deal with Reddit for AI parsable data. Reddit reciprocated by allowing Google to be the only indexable search engine.
Google now thinks it can do the same to literally everyone else.
Googling is pretty damn mainstream.
Don't give Google your data, then don't be included in googles search results. It's like a flip of their previous trade with reddit, except it's not a trade. It's extortion.

Reddit never gave Google traffic. They gave them content and data.
And Google thinks it can withdraw traffic from other sites unless they get data in return.
Google is a monopoly.
Literally extortion

Thank you

Starting with a pool of all users who use alternative DNS for any reason, users of pirate sites – especially sites broadcasting the matches in question – were isolated from the rest. Users of both VPNs and third-party DNS were further excluded from the group since DNS blocking is ineffective against VPNs.

Proust found that the number of users likely to be affected by DNS blocking at Google, Cloudflare, and Cisco, amounts to 0.084% of the total population of French Internet users. Citing a recent survey, which found that only 2% of those who face blocks simply give up and don’t find other means of circumvention, he reached an interesting conclusion.

“2% of 0.084% is 0.00168% of Internet users! In absolute terms, that would represent a small group of around 800 people across France!”

I wonder how much the court case cost, and if those costs are in anyway likely to be recouped even if all 800 of those convert to a subscription.

Exactly.
Communities need to be more generic until a specialisation becomes too much of the content, then a specific community should be started.

The at-ing is because of federation between Lemmy instances and mastodon instances.
It's the way discussions happen on mastodon
