Trains are easy and they’re easily electrified already. So putting solar on the trains won’t have any advantage.

Rails are the difficult part of railways. They never seem to put them between my house and my work. They’ve put something called a road in between instead.

Exceptions are possible. Money isn’t everything for everyone.

Fl. Oz are actually nothing to do with weight. They are volume.

For each fluid oz. use 30 ml

It’s only approximate but the official measurements for nutrition actually do it in the US so it’s not a real unit anyway anymore.

Honestly, Zoom just has a hilariously high frequency of vulnerabilities being discovered.

Let’s set the sentence for executing an innocent man to, death.

The first barrier to the death penalty is to make sure verdicts are right 100% of the time.

After that you can begin the debate about **whether it’s moral at all.

Proportional representation does give a minority voice to these people.

It’s the cost of fairness and it is useful to demonstrate minority views are disregarded for no reason other than because they’re the minority.

How’s that FPTP election going? Nice and stable, no extremists likely to overthrow democracy or anything?

There are sandwich artists and sanitation engineers. Everyone knows they get paid like crap.

Unfortunately “prompt engineers” seem to be getting paid small fortunes when their job is essentially using a massive amount of computing power to commit various levels of intellectual property theft they hope no one will notice.

There’s a Russian Pravda and a Ukrainian Pravda.

Both extremely partisan. Neither what I’d call reliable sources of news but you’ve probably seen propaganda from both.

Of course the Ukrainian Pravda has literally been able to print facts, unguilded, and they’ve matched what they would say as propaganda anyway so it’s appeared like a reputable news source recently.

That’s what happens when Russia genuinely does things like use chemical weapons (cs gas) banned by the Geneva convention.

(For those wondering, even though cs gas is used in riots the convention bans all gas based weapons as they target indiscriminately and could easily be mistaken for nerve agents by either side. Leading to either accidental use of nerve agents or accidental retaliation with something similarly destructive)

Or when the Russians directly hit a nuclear reactor 3 times.

Meanwhile the Russian Pravda has to manufacture its propaganda, like claiming an Islamic State attack which Islamic State issued video evidence of and claimed was somehow Ukrainian.

It’s a problem I recognise but in my opinion those who have grown up in illegal settlements have to be the ones to move.

I do blame their parents. Their parents have knowingly broken international law and it is essentially their fault their children are legally homeless.

This is where I have sympathy for those who will genuinely experience displacement when illegal settlements are handed back, but there was a choice made by those children’s parents to put them in that situation.

Compare that with the families forcibly removed from the land in the first place with no agency or choice.

I can see that there are those who are the victim of the oppression and aggression of Zionists because they were forced to leave.

There are those who may end up facing trauma because they were forced to move there.

There are victims on both sides, the important thing is not allowing those who have perpetrated harm to continue to do so.

The illegal settlements must be returned, those who have invaded will have caused harm to their own community and will face the consequences for that.

I hope for some reciprocity from both sides like in Ireland where there is not a continuous seeking for justice and further consequences. But the initial acts of oppression and theft must be undone.

There was a war in 1967. The occupation since has been illegal.

The 1967 war itself was justified because of the actions of guerillas, not state actors. Israel was the aggressor and preemptively struck against other nations.

Israel defended itself against threats. That was justified.

But Israel then went on to punish ordinary people and civilians. It’s a pattern of behaviour that has continued since 1967. Highlight the actions of terrorists, take from the civilians. Blockade the civilians, starve the civilians. Limit food, water, medicine, other supplies.

There have been times where Israel has allowed some normalcy in the 90s. But they’ve maintained a blockade and occupation. They’ve maintained an oppression.

All justified mostly by the actions of terrorists and external states. Not the people they’ve been persecuting.

Hamas are just the latest group. Israel cannot continue to punish civilians because of the actions of terrorists.

Israel definitely want evacuated Palestinians to give up on returning home and integrate into other countries.

Forcing Palestinians to do this is one of the definitions of genocide.

If someone is suggesting that refugees become citizens of other countries of other countries automatically then that’s actually enabling a genocide.

This is the problem with looking at solutions on the small scale when the problem is large scale.

Every individual in those refugee camps would likely have a better life if they “integrated” into another country. It’s easy to say those people should get a better life.

But “integrating” into another country is also the language used to suggest the abandonment of culture and claim to their former home.

They are refugees because their homes have been under constant blockade or attack for decades. It’s time to give them their homes back.

If you want a market solution to correct this, it should cost more money to submit frivolous patents.

Or simply rate limit the number of parents a company can submit if they have a lot of failed applications.

Sorry, you’ve wasted our time with 3 failed applications this month, no more applications until next month.

The stand up bit that launched a career.

The problem is artists often make their actual living doing basic boiler plate stuff that gets forgotten quickly.

In graphics it’s Company logos, advertising, basic graphics for businesses.

In writing it’s copy for websites, it’s short articles, it’s basic stuff.

Very few artists want to do these things, they want to create the original work that might not make money at all. That work potentially being a winning lottery ticket but most often being an act of expressing themselves that doesn’t turn into a payday.

Unfortunately AI is taking work away from artists. It can’t seem to make very good art yet but it can prevent artists who could make good art getting to the point of making it.

It’s starving out the top end of the creative market by limiting the easy work artists could previously rely on to pay the bills whilst working on the big ideas.

I’m sticking with relevance. A >25% rise is what we’re talking about.

A 0.001 difference on a 0.004 total would be worth showing.

No it doesn’t.

It’s meant to illustrate a change and it does so perfectly fine. It’s not a scientific paper.

It’s a 32-34% increase looking at the graph. That’s significant enough to shout about.

Imagine any change you could make surprising competition by 25% in any market. That’s huge.

During setup there is a keyboard shortcut to get to command prompt.

Then a command you can use.

Then the machine restarts and you can setup without a Microsoft account.

(For reference I’m on my dual booting Linux phase. I’d like to ditch it altogether but Wayland isn’t quite there yet and x never will be.)

Human papillomavirus HPV is responsible for warts on feet.

So genital warts, mostly HSV (Herpes). Not nice but not particularly harmful most of the time. Cold sores and genital warts. Mouth, genitals. Won’t look nice but you won’t die.

HPV - cancer.

Further investigation on the evidence may be required but social acceptability chart above may be justified.

If you have a foot fetish get vaccinated against HPV everyone.

Also not googling this. Please take this comment with the respect and authority it deserves. (None)

Rights framed in a constitution are important.

The responsibility of the government is to uphold law and the rights that law protects.

But a legislator sets the law, so without rights being part of a constitution, the government gets no responsibility from a constitution.

The most important stuff is all pertaining to elections. How the government gets elected being in the constitution stops the government changing that before an election.

Then rights directly effecting elections. Speech, protest, anti-discrimination.

Can’t have those changed before the ballot.

Everything else can and should be part of a separate bill or constitution of rights.
