Does that third also take into account any differences in manufacturing them? In other words, the entire lifecycle.

Deepen your empathy by reading more and reading more often, linguist says (phys.org)

Reading stories regularly strengthens social-cognitive skills—such as empathy—in both children and adults. And this, in turn, ensures that we can empathize with characters more effectively and more quickly when we are reading. This is the subject of linguist Lynn Eekhof’s Ph.D., which she will receive at Radboud University...

I don’t understand how the eye movement camera fits in to the experiment. I was wondering if any stories, even audiobooks and TV series have the same effect but I’m no clearer from reading the article.

FarraigePlaisteach ,

It is. I’d love to see it without the text too.

Best skin I’ve seen on any social site. Nice job.

I’ve been seriously thinking of building an LGBT bar. Does anyone know where I can purchase gay bricks?

FarraigePlaisteach ,

Name-calling isn't necessary at all, if that's what happening. That said, would you behave this way in a restaurant?

I organise a small group gathering at a local pub sometimes with people who aren't close friends. If it's just one person not buying in a decent sized group, then it doesn't cause a problem for the venue as far as I know. When we're huddled in a corner it's hard to tell who has what drink.

But you simply wouldn't get away with that if it wasn't for the others buying drinks and we do so to "pay the rent" so to speak. So when that happens there is a vibe of "I'm fine with you guys covering me here". Saying "I don't spend money in bars" isn't that different to saying "I let others spend their money at bars".

Now if this was a group of good friends, or someone I knew was struggling financially, I'd be fine with it.

He has some strange takes there, as if federating is mandatory. Servers do block instances and defederate. it’s not misuse of activitypub to do so.

I don’t know what’s the right choice. But some arguments are a bit off to me.

FarraigePlaisteach ,

Isn’t he also the SO creator? Anyway, I’m sure he understands the technology, yes. And maybe I misinterpreted him. But it sounded like he’s saying that if we don’t federate with Threads, then there’s no point in being on the fediverse, because we’re effectively isolationists”. That’s simply untrue.

FarraigePlaisteach ,

So if an instance federated with loads of other instances but not Threads, I’m not a social network anymore? That makes no sense to me.

FarraigePlaisteach , (edited )

"spammy/toxic instances" - Meta are a toxic company. They literally have blood on their hands.
"too liberal with defederation" - we're talking about one body specifically; Threads. Nothing else.

As to whether it should be done at an admin or individual level, I have no idea. But they're an unethical company and people less privileged than you and I have died while they profit from it. That alone is enough reason for anyone with empathy IMO.

All I know about Quebec is that they have several First Nations there. Why is a foreign language be mandated over those?

FarraigePlaisteach ,

I thought that SSD fails “better” than HDD because SDD become read-only first.

FarraigePlaisteach ,

Thanks. In that case is it known which of those two possibilities are most likely?

FarraigePlaisteach ,

According to @postcard64 below I’m oversimplifying things (at minimum).

FarraigePlaisteach ,

Anyone know how this compares to FreshRSS?

Update: I see a few differences. It’s mobile friendly and is more simplified in some ways. That’s all good. They say to expect breakage so it mightn’t be as stable yet.

Seeing how Canada treats non-whites and First Nations would put it low on my list actually.

Asking the United Arse Emirates to redefine themselves there.

True, UAE are not exclusive that way.

Trashy British tabloid. Please don’t post these.

Take the time to develop more understanding, and therefore empathy for yourself and others. You'll never truly do anything worthwhile without empathy.

"Violence against civilians will have consequences". I wish I could believe that. I think most Israeli's who destroy the lives of Palestinians will enjoy it without consequence.

YSK that chiropractors are not medical doctors and "Systematic reviews... have found no evidence that chiropractic manipulation is effective" (en.wikipedia.org)

“Systematic reviews of controlled clinical studies of treatments used by chiropractors have found no evidence that chiropractic manipulation is effective, with the possible exception of treatment for back pain.[8] A 2011 critical evaluation of 45 systematic reviews concluded that the data included in the study “fail[ed] to...

That’s really serious. The hackers seem to have achieved almost total coverage, which sounds as if they could influence any operation at the plant. And the staff coverups since 2015 (at least) just compound the issue.

My first thought reading this was “humans just aren’t ready for nuclear”.

FarraigePlaisteach ,

That’s a silly comparison. Chocolate is ubiquitous in Western society. Ferraris are not.

FarraigePlaisteach ,

Absolutely true. But under what system is there significantly less exploitation? Too many people are selfish, cruel or both.

FarraigePlaisteach ,

What a bunch of creeps, and how unusual for a bank to defend something like that.

Alien (1979). When the cryogenic sleep pods open at the beginning it reminds me of those dioramas people do of Baby J, the three wise men etc. The alien is like one of the animals, although a little more aggressive.

People generally have a poor understanding of what is and is lot recyclable in their own waste collection areas. I don’t know what kind of plastic or polymers are in each product. Only the manufacturer has the knowledge, capital and power to choose more environmentally supportive materials. They’d be more likely to actually do it if they had to process them afterwards.

To address the questions you’re really asking;

The next time you need justice, I hope someone says something better to you than “too late, you’re just one person”.

FarraigePlaisteach ,

It’s not just hundreds of years. Those people are still there today. It’s never too late to do the right thing. In fact, Canada has returned some stolen land lately so please don’t tell me that it’s too difficult when you haven’t even tried.

By the way, on second reading of your reply you sound like an absolute maniac. Are there any other minorities you’d like to see deprived of justice and funding? Wheelchair users maybe? The deaf or blind? Check yourself.

They don’t like people saying the quiet part loud.

Unless you’re Native, then that could apply to you too.

No. China claims that they are not escalating it. But other sources say that they are supplying Russia for their war https://www.bbc.com/news/60571253
