Say a dissolvable spring is compressed with a bolt and nut that do not melt in a sulfuric acid solution. The spring has quite a bit of potential energy at this point since it is compressed. Assuming the spring dissolves perfectly (no breakage, just complete disintegration), what happens to the potential energy of the spring?
I think capitalism can be understood as a living entity, a being composed of billions of smaller beings (people), essentially cells. It evolves (legally and through market innovations), has an immune response (police), and grows and reproduces itself (imperialism). The cells are independent life in their own right, but they...
I’ve had LMDE6 installed since it’s release day and everything has been fine. For the past week it’s been dropping my wifi card randomly. It is not recognized by rfkill nor lspci after it happens. Only reboot helps....

Sometimes the screen isn’t turning off at all, other times the screen turns...

I have been using this config for qBittorrent for awhile and been working for the most part. Sometimes it gets “connection status: Firewalled” I would fix this by going to settings -> connection and click the “Random” button a couple times and save and then it would work again.
