Do yoy even know how temperature for buoys is measured? Its measured at 10 feet deep. Have you ever swam to the bottom of the pool and felt it colder? Thats because it is.

If it really was 100 degrees some 3.5m below sea level, then the surface would be way hotter due to sun exposure/radiation. My guess would be basically too hot to touch.

I provide evidence and you give your opinion. Essentially you brought a knife to a gun fight and are bitching about how it made no sense you lost.

PatFussy ,

Okay. You can provide article after article but unless you can help me understand why temperatures 10 feet below the ocean can show near scalding levels i dont care to entertain your rebuttals. Really, this is your opportunity to help me understand.

Provide proof on your take first. Otherwise I will consider you dead on the floor, so unable to offer any knowledge whatsoever.

PatFussy , (edited )

So i went and looked for it myself since you didnt want to. I found that bouys measure the epipelagical zone which has a usual and average temperature due to several factors (mainly wind and mixing currents). Temperatures usually have a steep decline in temperature when it reaches the thermocline which is what i was referring to earlier. This thermocline actually drops in the summer meaning the epilagical zone has more depth but is generally already lower in costal areas. Here, its not unusual for waters to be between 90F to 104F in the summer. If you want to know more, just google “Surface Sea Temperature In-Situ Methodology”.

So there i didnt your homework for you and i proved myself wrong. Its likely not an error but a usual occurance(maybe even a bit higher than normal).

Their punishment is, as decided by law, being separated from society, family, friends, their hobbies and comfort while still getting to live d dignified human beings.

Not everyone in prison is a murderer or rapist, and even many of those get reformed. So please think of that before you go and approve of their exploitation.

darthfabulous42069 ,

Jail is a terrible idea and is inherently inhumane. We can punish people in better ways. Jail never should have been allowed to become a thing.

elscallr ,
@elscallr@lemmy.world avatar

You’re right and wrong. For nonviolent offenses you’re right. For offenses where there actually isn’t a victim (drugs, prostitution, etc) you’re definitely right. But for violent offenders, rapists, murderers, chomos, I don’t agree. I don’t want them near me and honestly I don’t care to rehabilitate them. If they’re guilty beyond a doubt, for those crimes, might be better to take them behind the chemical shed and put a bullet in their head. But, we can be convinced of guilt and be wrong, so jail is a good compromise.

Jail is much less humane than the death penalty, even for someone wrongfully convicted imo.

Alto , in UPS reaches tentative contract with 340,000 unionized workers potentially dodging calamitous strike
@Alto@kbin.social avatar

My only concern is the part regarding AC. I fear they're just going to buy multiple years worth of vehicles prior to when the change goes into effect, and hold off on buying new as long as they can.

drhugsymcfur ,

The supply chain will not allow that to happen. The facilities that build UPS trucks already have production schedules that are full into 2024.

It’s going to be a big effort just to meet the January 1st deadline that the contract currently sets out.

Alto ,
@Alto@kbin.social avatar

As far as I can tell, it's vehicles purchased after 1/1/24. They can purchase them for however long in advance as they'd like.

drhugsymcfur ,

That’s not how anything works. If the teamsters agreed to a contract that can be twisted out of that easily then they deserve it.

Alto ,
@Alto@kbin.social avatar

You don't think it's common for things like bulk vehicle purchases to be decided years in advance?

TransplantedSconie ,

Fun fact:

The trucks already come with AC and heat shielding for the exhaust. UPS has them ripped out to save money.

drhugsymcfur ,

That’s not true on the standard package car that makes up the majority of their fleet.

You are partially correct specifically when it comes to the P31 package car on the RAM or F250 chassis.

@HybridSarcasm@lemmy.world avatar

For those that would bother to read the article, the ‘victim’ flipped off the cop while driving. Sure, maybe the cop is an angry asshole, but the excessive force is just as likely to come from being flipped off as the cop seeing a transgender person.

Flipping off a cop is perfectly legal. The person you hate because and only because he’s trans is a victim of police brutality.

but the excessive force is just as likely to come from being flipped off

The excessive force is because a pig was abusing his little piggy authority.

ssboomman ,

    You seriously think flipping a person off is an act of aggression worthy of being beaten?

    Like those are the two things being equated by you. That somehow a person who raises a middle finger at distance from another person might expect to be followed and beaten, that those two things make sense in this context.

    It’s that really how you think, or did someone trigger you in the comments and this is your version of being personally butthurt?

    nednobbins ,

    If a cop just acts like some random “guy with a gun” who might shoot you at the slightest provocation they probably shouldn’t have a gun.
    Or be a cop.
    An honest cop should be keeping a close eye on that guy.

    HybridSarcasm ,
    @HybridSarcasm@lemmy.world avatar

    I don’t disagree. It’s just also stupid to assume that the cop you flip off WON’T flip out. For all the “all cops are bad” messaging that’s going around, you’d think one would want to play it safe. Two things can be true at once: the cop absolutely escalated this beyond what was called for, and the victim was stupid to instigate anything in the first place.

    You can’t sympathize and victim blame at the same time.

    Coach ,

    Problem is, when you’re a hammer, everything looks like a nail. Cops are constantly letting their spurs jingle-jangle and if they cannot start exhibiting some self-control, they will lose their most prized possession, their guns.

    The middle finger is a visual that frighted, scared, meager police would see as a threat. Hence their would also see their response in beating… as penance for doing something they don’t like.

    MicroWave OP , in The Biden administration proposes new rules to push insurers to boost mental health coverage
    @MicroWave@lemmy.world avatar

    The new regulations, which still need to go through a public comment period, would require insurers to study whether their customers have equal access to medical and mental health benefits and to take remedial action, if necessary. The Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act requires that insurers provide the same level of coverage for both mental and physical health care — though the administration and advocates argue insurers’ policies restrict patient access.

    InverseParallax , in Paris to bring back swimming in Seine after 100 years

    I mean, really?

    I know it’s gotten better but last time I saw it I wouldn’t touch it with an enemy’s dick.

    AnarchistArtificer ,

    From the article, it seems like the largest problem was dumping of wastewater overflow that was beyond processing plants’ capacities. As part of this push to clean up the Seine (as part of a PR for the upcoming Olympics), they’ve built a large reservoir to temporarily store waste water overflow until things level off and the treatment plants can treat the water normally.

    It sounds like a great step forwards in infrastructural improvements that will make a huge difference to the ongoing cleanliness of the water. I share many of your feelings, having seen the Seine myself a few years ago, but this article genuinely makes me feel hopeful

    InverseParallax ,

    I wish them the best of luck, it was a beautiful river before industrial and other waste destroyed it.
