It'll heat up the firebox, which is exactly what the firebox wants to happen. It's not like we're using precisely-timed explosives to briefly make the mass much more than critical and counter its desire to blow itself apart for long enough that it blows other things apart, too.

The press widely covered AV as if it was incredibly expensive and didn't solve any problems, so presented it as if we'd be throwing away beds at children's hospitals, support for pensioners and equipment for soldiers just to introduce pointless bureaucracy. If the choice was the one most voters thought they were making, then voting against it would have been the sensible option.

You can boost it by hollowing out the middle and filling it with tritium, but plutonium is dense, so 80 tons will probably fit in the firebox just fine.

Giving a country with a track record of violating treaties as long as Russia's anything that lets them feel like they gained from the war in return for a treaty saying they'll stop the war is going to cost more Ukrainian lives than continuing to fight, even to the last man. All a peace treaty like that achieves is vindicating Russia's decision to violate the last treaty. It doesn't stop the war, just pauses it while Russia rearms, so it can be even bloodier when it resumes than it would have been if it hadn't paused. If Ukraine can't make Russia lose, more Ukrainians (and more citizens of Russia's other neighbours who are at risk of being next in line) survive if they make Russia's victory pyrrhic so they learn that it isn't profitable to invade their neighbours again.

In the UK it's the coroner who makes that descision (unless, e.g. someone dies in hospital and a doctor can see what they died of), and they're independent of the police, so it'd become a multi-agency coverup if they were doing that.

It's the Met, though, so they might just not notice bodies in the first place or be able to add up the numbers they get from the coroner once they get into double figures. For an organisation so institutionally incompetant as the Met, you have to apply Hanlon's Razor by default.

The main point of 32-bit Windows 10 wasn't to make it run on non-64-bit hardware, it's that x86 processors can't run in 16-bit mode if they were booted in 64-bit mode, so if you've got an old 16-bit Windows/DOS/CPM app that you've absolutely got to run natively instead of through DOSBox and have to use modern Windows instead of an older version, it needs to be 32-bit. By the time Windows 11 released, Microsoft had decided that nearly no one still wanted to do that anymore.

In a lot of the world they're regulated as novelty items, so free from the regulation that stops harmful chemicals being in things like kitchen utensils and childrens' toys, despite many of the same potential risks being present. You don't need to use a corner-cutting regulation-ignoring retailer like Wish to get your fix of toxic plasticisers etc..

You get both sizes of gametes with all kinds of bodies. It's only the testes/ovaries that are reliably correlated with gamete size, and anything further away from their production than that has about the same chance of not being the style you'd expect as an atom has of not being hydrogen or helium, just like the original meme alludes to.

As it says in the article, it'll be smaller and quieter, so less offensive for most people's living rooms than a full-size desktop. It's not meant to replace your existing PC if you have one, unless it was getting old and you were about to replace it anyway. If you don't have a PC, or don't have one in the living room, then it might be a better option than anyone else's prebuilt.

The Scott Trust Limited, which is effectively still The Guardian, and was created to guarantee its financial and editorial independence. There's a reason why Snowden went to them specifically to leak his leaks etc.

It'll be maintained for a while, so we might get to 3.14.15 or 3.14.16, which will be a better approximation and better because of more bugfixes.

The original study was doctored, but plenty of others with similar results weren't.
