News
Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
“14,250 residents…300,000 condoms”.
So, 20 per resident.
From what I've read previously, I'm not sure that's enough.
I imagine they're expecting some athletes to bring their own, free condoms tend to suck.
I also imagine some people will go without by choice.
you used to be able to get proper branded Durex condoms for free in health centres in the UK with flavoured and ribbed varieties if you were under 18.
Then the boomers complained and they changed it so you could only get the "extra safe" ones which made it so you could barely feel anything.
So naturally me and my gf at the time stopped using them entirely.
"it's more aerodynamic"
They are literally made in the exact same factory with the exact same material. The only difference is marketing and some custom molds for like, ribbed, ultra thin, etc. Almost all brands in the world share the same dozen or so factories.
Usually the lube isn't very good and they're the extra thicc kind that feel like fucking a milk carton.
I'm sure they're just as safe as the kind you buy at the store.
They run out every Olympics
They're Olympics branded condoms, people scoop them up as souvenirs.
“Only for Olympians!” sounds like a challenge of my stamina. Challenge accepted, condoms from 2012
