    I don't really keep up with these Tech/Soft tubers, but watch a video on occasion. Can't really say I find something-imagen guilty of this, but like I said I watch the occasional v…

    Calorie abundance is accurate too, food has never been as cheap and delicious as it is now. Not to mention the ultra-processed high-density foods we have now. Meaning you can easil…

    Both China and Russia have claimed parts of other countries using the tactic of moving in their people to then use that as an excuse to annex or overtake those parts. Crimea for Ru…

    Israel definitely wants the West Bank (and the Golan Heights), it didn't demonstrate the same interest in Gaza. Which isn't that strange considering there's very little value in th…

    When the Nazis were driven out? I hope you mean when the USSR fell, because Poland was under their control for about 45 years. The Red Army entered Poland in 1944.

    How do you not see this as circular reinforcement? Hamas justifies it's attacks by pointing to Israel, and Israel justifies it by pointing to Hamas. Things like Hamas still holding…

    If that's your criteria this is equally true on the other side of this conflict. Even predating the Jewish exodus from many Arabic nations. The primary difference between them is t…

    This is why I strongly adhere to WET¹, you discover so much about the domain the first time you write something. By the time you have it 'working' you realize you should've written…

    Ethnic cleansing isn't genocide and vise-versa. Genocide is very specifically about murdering a group of individuals for their shared characteristic, not displacing them. In this c…

    There IS video, just not of what's being claimed. With the amount of constant propaganda about this conflict in particular, you cannot trust anything that you can't actually verify…

    They've been making that claim since the start of the conflict, including calling it a genocide. There have been an overwhelming amount of articles that later had to be retracted a…

    Ironically the claim about corruption also applies to this admin. (See crypto scams for access to the president, and the Epstein files promises for well-known examples) I do agree …

    Works on 24.3.0 for me, though many a warning is thrown.

    The 4080 was also quite the bad value compared to the much better 4090. That remains to be seen for the 5000 series.

    MSRP went from 1959,- to 2369,-. That's quite the increase.

    The "perfect" fat percentage for men when it comes to health is around the 22% range. For women it's significantly higher. (35% iirc) I'll try to find the study/abstract later if p…

    Though I don't disagree principally. My experience with government contracts echos the much higher costs you have to make to get 'simple' things through. You end up jumping through…

    This is how it works in most EU countries afaik (at least where I live). You're automatically registered essentially. You only need to show up with the form/ballet you were sent an…

    The Macbook Pro's have good in-built mics, probably the same for higher end windows laptops. But I imagine the average cheap windows laptop has quite poor quality mics. It would be…

    The problem with that mindset is that by the time you do get hit, it'll be too late to act and remedy the issue easily. Even though I agree with you in spirit. The chances that you…

    Just checked my preconceived notions. The commonality of burnout in some form to full burnout seems to be roughly 75% for employees[1] and roughly 70% for executives[2] and 25% ~ 7…

    I'm absolutely convinced that burnout is a function of spending time on things you loathe to do. Not how much time you spend on something you love doing. Most people I know that ac…
