Cows are super curious by nature. Milked/Unmilked probably doesn't matter.

You can spin your hand 180° around Y (index / up). Then Z (middle) points away from you, "forward". And X (thumb) will point left.

Thus the "Left-Up-Forward" + Right-handed.

I don't follow why that means I'm wrong.

"Was" here refers to their old Z-Up, left-handed coordinates, where X was forward, Y was right, and Z was up.

He references "Left-Up-Forward", so X is Left, Z is into the screen.

2D is not a consideration, even if it'd be logical. (That's where Left-handed Right-Up-Forward grows out of.)

You are wrong, @egerlach@lemmy.ca was correct:

[...] we’re transitioning to the Left-Up-Forward (LUF) coordinate system.

Yeah, people love being offered a carrot and then having it yanked to be beaten with a stick. Those people definitely won't hold a grudge and go elsewhere. 🙄

From the Wikipedia article:

Solitaire leaks information at a rate of about 0.0005 bits per character. While its security may perhaps be adequate for very short messages, in general Solitaire is considered insecure.

Last I heard was that instead of selling the crypto they seize from illegal activities/arrests, they're going to hold it in this reserve. So it's not new spending, but it will be a reduction in income for the government.

The article mentions and notes "reserve" vs "stockpile", but my gut take is that he has no idea of the difference and just thought "reserve" sounded better in the moment.

In that description, the two lines wouldn't necessarily be perpendicular.

Edit: I mean that if you're trying to apply the same mechanism to the second line, you wouldn't necessarily end up with the lines intersecting at 90°. But maybe I'm misunderstanding.

I don't see any stats in the article about the "serge", and the source linked by the article only offers a weeks snapshot and last week's #.

ER diagnosis are at 2.1%, up from 1.9% the week before. Not sure that counts as a serge, especially since for all I know that's within the margin of error.

Anybody have better stats?

Then you're saying biomass is not really sequestering carbon, essentially.

Coal is sequestered carbon.
