I am guessing you are looking for beginner level books ?
Maybe some of these would be good
https://bookauthority.org/books/beginner-physics-books
I guess it depends on the field of physics you are interested in. Feel free to ask questions on Fedi too,

Hi! I'm broke, didn't go to college and i want to learn more physics and trigonometry. Please, could you tell me good no so expensive books to start with? if they are oriented to game dev or physics engines even better. English or Spanish are fine.
I need books, not Ebooks. I can not focus on Ebooks and i want this near to me to check at any moment.
A boost to get recommendations would be extremely cool.

When Proton Mail was launched in 2014, the goal was not just secure communications, but digital identity. If you are not signed into Gmail, Google can no longer connect your activity across the entire internet to your real-life identity.

Girl, 13, gives birth after she was raped and denied abortion in Mississippi https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/aug/14/mississippi-abortion-ban-girl-raped-gives-birth?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon

The bottom half of the case is done, including the rubber gaskets. Now to pop the board in and continue building the top half.
Building this, I’ve just realised Lego is just really coarse grain 3D-printing. Only you can also take it apart. We had 3D printers as kids y’all and we didn’t even know it! :)
Ah ok, I will run a check on my system at some point to see if there are any issues.
But thanks

Melissa Dungan and GOP members of a Texas school board want to speak with the manager
They think posters in schools of children holding hands showing racial inclusion is “against the law” and they want them removed
Melissa claims her child was so hurt by the image of friendship their child had to switch classrooms
But according to them, the same doesn’t apply to bible verses
anti LGBTQIA+, anti woman, anti child, anti intellectual, anti science, anti inclusion
What is the GOP for?

I am extremely excited because we're testing a new system to detect #Firefox crashes caused by bad memory.
We're currently finding a very high correlation between potential bit-flips detected by this system and crashes we thought were caused by bad hardware.
This will help us in two ways: we'll be able to avoid spending time looking at those crashes and we might also inform users that their memory went bad and they need to have their machines checked.
This would be a good idea, can the same feature be built in to all Linux based systems, as bad hardware has all sorts of odd effects, or can do.

ChatGPT uses the equivalent of a 500-milliliter bottle of water for each “conversation”. Yet, when the White House announced last month that 7 of the key companies developing AI had agreed to a list of voluntary commitments focused on protecting Americans’ “rights and safety,” the announcement said nothing about sustainability…https://www.sfchronicle.com/opinion/openforum/article/ai-chatgpt-climate-environment-18282910.php Important op-ed by Irina Raicu, director of the Internet Ethics program.

Probably because rather than thinking long term they are from day 1 looking at the next election.
Embedding people in trafficking gangs, may require years of undercover work, for starters those people need to earn the trust of those near the top of that group, they need to know who is doing what, how and gather enough evidence, so successful prosecutions can be made.
I am not sure what has happened in Germany as apparently some trafficking kingpin has been released to protect HIS human rights, which does seem to be a set back.
The 2nd option is about undercutting this business model having inside info makes this much easier too I guess.
But once people are before a judge they need to know that they will face a significant amount of time in prison.
If I pay joe bloggs $5000 to get me to England, I get given instrctions, furhter down the line, get in a boat, and try and get across the channel, the boat sinks and I drown.
The issue there is tracing all that back to Joe bloggs who started that process off.
If we then look at why I wanted to leave (e.g civil war, climate change) then this becomes a much wider long term international issue.
Can we use that last part as part of our e-mail signatures etc. Just asking permission to quote that.

If you spent time doing your job, you won't have time to spy on others.
I agree here, and have said before, the US is like a powder keg ready to go off, and seems to be getting to the point where it NEEDS to off with a bang, so that the polairization can hopefully be ended once and for all.
If we had a serious hard lined attitude to the actual people traffickers we would have people embedded in originating countries trying to find out who these people are and help bring them to justice.
We would also be opening up consulate offices so that we can provide places to claim asylum, BUT also promote the jobs and skills. We also need to control what is happening to stop modern day slavery and other exploitation too.

Sorry I mis interpreted, I thought you meant that we should install these batteries, but bigger in homes.
But yea good point, can you power an inverter from a EV car battery in the same way as you can with a normal petrol / diesel / gasoline engine and lead / acid battery.
