El Salvador made BTC legal tender in 2021, and backtracked in 2025.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What do far-left Christian liberationists feel about Catholics?
0·4 days agoPardon my ignorance, but are you talking about liberation theology? Or does “Christian liberationist” mean something else?

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.ca•Gearheads — what would happen if I...?
0·6 days agoMy parents had an old car with a manual transmission, no power steering, no power brakes, and no steering wheel lock. My dad and I had a game where we would shut off the engine about 1/4 mile from home and coast all the way into the garage. Whoever could coast the furthest without speeding or needing to restart the engine would get bragging rights. If you did have to restart the engine, you got points for putting it in gear and clutch starting rather than using the key.

Bicycles@lemmy.ca•Fork width tire width compatibility question
0·1 month ago115 is an odd fork width. I think you mean the fork is spec’d to fit a 15x110mm “Boost” hub? And the hub on your front wheel is 15x100mm.
If that’s the case, you can definitely adapt the hub to fit the fork. You need two axle spacers, a 15x110mm axle, and a spacer to shift the brake disc into the correct position. Problem Solvers actually sells the spacers in a kit…

For center lock brake discs: https://problemsolversbike.com/products/booster-hub-spacing-kit-center-lock-front
The real question is: where tf did you get a free Flight Attendant fork?!
Edit: if you really want to go down the rabbit hole and design your own spacers, SRAM publishes everything you need in their frame fit specifications:

sh.itjust.works Main Community@sh.itjust.works•Does this instance allow Gore / Snuff?
0·3 months agoNo, we are not okay with hosting that content. Thank you for bringing it up. That is a newly created community within the past two days, and we had not noticed it yet. I have removed the community.
For transparency’s sake, I will mention that we have a !combatvideos@sh.itjust.works community which may include some gory content. In that case, the mods approached us before creating the community to discuss what it could contain and how it would be run. The admin team decided to allow it since there is arguably a public interest in documenting what our governments are doing.

Comic Strips@lemmy.world•Everett cares about fire safety [Outbursts of Everett True, 1914]
0·2 years agoI know a guy who addresses his wife as Woman. It started as a joke and stuck. She loves it. When he needs to get her attention in a public place he just shouts, “Woman!” and she cheerfully responds. It gets great reactions from people who don’t know.






Medical device industry here. Some of our software and electrical engineers are using Claude as a sounding board for ideas, or as a starting point to find possible paths forward when they get stuck with a hard problem. Nobody trusts the model to give an accurate answer. Nobody is being encouraged to use AI models. At the end of the day, all work committed to a project is done by real humans with the normal review processes.
Management is cautiously looking at potential uses for AI in our products, but there is a healthy dose of skepticism all around. If your machine is displaying diagnostic data to a doctor there cannot be any question as to whether the machine is hallucinating.
