a majority of voters, but it still only ends up being about 33% of the country in literal terms.

that's not how that works, we cant regrow (most) vital organs (liver says hi) because of "engineering problems" not because evolution is random. we personify adaptations to understand them, it can lead to issues but yours is a massive overcorrection.

normally claims to be leftist, the main tankie things are being in support of authoritarians, as long as they wear red (claim to be communist) and often uncritically support any actions taken against "the west", which often aligns them with authoritarian governments like the ccp, kremlin. Tankies get their name from support of various events where tanks were used to oppress, like tianmen square, prague spring, etc.

The internet is a funny analogue!

Because it experienced the dot com crash under almost the same sort of circumstances.

As long as you're keeping it to your own life not trying to encourage genocide via antinatalist policy then you do you.

Trilium for a database and therefore faster method that is actually foss.

Obsidian is reaching market criticality so I'm expecting enshitification any time now.

Anybody claiming one general solution will fix every single grievance they have sounds a step away from buying essential oils.

Don't get me wrong, it will help, but no every pet problem will not be magically solved by waving hands and going "just do better urban panning, duh"

Just don't romanticize your proposed solution to a degree where you think you can slap it in and problems solve themselves.

Im going to correct and elaborate here.

Just taken at face value this claim is wrong. What you're thinking of is that you can often get military hardware in media, as in tanks, soldiers as extras, uniforms, 3d models of vehicles, etc. Directly from the military/dod. These are things which often cost millions of dollars, you can occasionally get them for free in your movie. The caveat is generally that then the dod is allowed to vet and veto scenes and uses, the expectation being that they can kick out anything that depicts the military in a bad lens, more or less.

You just don't digest as much nor store as much calories. So your feces and urine, as well as exhalation.

It's not cheating basic physics, there's just a lot of misunderstanding about how weight works in biology. Cico is not what many people believe it to be.

That's what it always was. Many people view. "Politics" as simply being anything they don't like or disagree with.

Nobody has mentioned librewolf, which is a fantastic out of the box privacy browser. It's a Firefox fork.
