Did the citizens of that country take the loan? No

Did they benefit at all from the loan? No

Did the world bank make any effort to ensure the above were answered ‘yes’? No

When you make a leveraged loan are you supposed to be guaranteed that the it was risk free? No

If leveraged loans could be made risk-free ‘breal your legs’ style the way the world bank does to countries, banks would be offering loans to every punter who wanted to bet on the dogs.

Yeah in the short term there are going to be a lot of lose/lose scenarios for them, but this is the stupid prize for playing stupid games with what they released.

I hope they stock it out, games like No Man’s Sky show both that a developer who cares enough to try can earn back the trust of a player base, and that the process to do so requires a lot of work.

I’m honestly more worried about science communicators projecting life-changing properties onto it because “superconductor”, and then the public coming away with “these scientists are all hyperbolic hacks”.

This looks a lot less like diamagnetism than the previous videos, but is still using way larger magnets than they should need; still very sceptical.

Also a reminder to anybody reading a news article about this: LK99 is likely a ceramic, so the attributes specifically for metallic superconductors would not apply.

The GPU driver should already be in mesa, no?

I’m currently running GrapheneOS on my Pixel 3XL, have been for about a year. Overall the experience has been solid, a few bugs here and there but it’s hard to say if they’ve been GrapheneOS issues or Android issues.

One heads up is that GrapheneOS only officially supports a modern subsection of Pixel phones, so if you intend to keep yours for ages (or to buy second hand) it may have some rough edges in a few years.
