And capitalistic mass production with no respect for natural resources, aka intensive farming. Plants are grown in huge monocultures with little to no genetic diversity thus making them prone to what would naturally be limited issues like unfavourable weather or diseases

repungnant_canary,

The Suwałki Corridor is even less important strategically after Sweden joined NATO and forces can move through there. Its main importance right now is for reinforcing Kaliningrad, which itself is not very supportive of Mother Russia actions. So in a hypothetical invasion scenario who even knows what would happen in Kaliningrad.

repungnant_canary,

Is that a metaphor? Please that be a metaphor…

repungnant_canary,

So is Trump …and Obama …and pretty much all of them? It’s a war crime only when it’s done by US enemies

repungnant_canary,

The fact that this needs to exist is absolutely ridiculous

repungnant_canary,

Maybe, if reviewers were paid for their job they could actually focus on reading the paper and those things wouldn’t slide. But then Elsevier shareholders could only buy one yacht a year instead of two and that would be a nightmare…

repungnant_canary,

You might simply be allergic. It’s probably best to have it checked.

repungnant_canary,

Can’t it be used to “replace” the arms? US ships to India so India can ship to Russia without losing?

repungnant_canary,

Some of those “compostable” bags actually decompose into microplastics, so unfortunately they’re not always better

repungnant_canary,

Nobody ever thinks about the oli barons /s

CC (not sure about MIT) virtually always requires attribution, but as GitHub Copilot showed right now open-“media” authors have basically no way of enforcing their rights.

repungnant_canary,

In most jurisdictions you can’t give away copyright - that’s why CC0 exists. And again most open-source and CC licences require attribution, if you use those licences you have a right to be attributed

repungnant_canary,

I know it has nothing to do with protecting the users, but how exactly is the app supposed to make viewing unreviewed content safer?

repungnant_canary,

Yeah, and it’s expensive because it’s …well, expensive. It’s not any less abundant than some other metals or more difficult to extract. We just decided it’s gonna be expensive

repungnant_canary,

They absolutely can handle data entry. This post refers to the absurdity of firms asking for a resume and then asking for all the details in a form, which is pointless.

repungnant_canary,

In many countries they do vote!

Restriction of personal freedom and restriction of citizen rights are two different forms of punishments, ideally useful in different circumstances. But I guess thiie US applies them jointly?

repungnant_canary,

I know it was different times, but if my kid was so afraid of not doing homework to the point of breaking into the house through the basement window, I would consider it a huge failure on my side.

Certainly loud, but I think the way forward should have been engineering a quieter version instead of going back to plastic. And in the meantime use idk… a bowl?

Edit: use a bowl, meaning put the crisps in the bowl when you open them if the noise bothers you

repungnant_canary,

Data caps are simply false advertising - if your infrastructure can only handle X Tb/s then sell lower client speeds or implement some clever QoS.

There are plenty of users for whom 1.5TB is quite or very restrictive - multi member households, video/photo editors working with raw data, scientists working with raw data, flatpak users with Nvidia GPU or people that selfhost their data or do frequent backups etc.

With the popularity of WFH and our dependence on online services the internet is virtually as vital as water or electricity, and you wouldn’t want to be restricted to having no electricity until the end of the month just because you used the angle grinder for a few afternoons.

repungnant_canary,

Make sure to take care of your mental health during and after the diagnosis. No matter how insignificant the diagnosis may seem it is very likely to have at least some impact sometimes lasting a few months

repungnant_canary,

I actually wouldn’t suggest this episode to someone whose father’s body is currently donated. But good episode nonetheless
