That article seems very new-world-centric

Europe, Mainland Asia & Africa all have native small cats and so the birds and small mammals have evolved to deal with them, the issue is that in Australia & the Americas they haven't and so that's where all the risk of species actually being wiped out is - in the old world the cats largely just replace the larger predators that humans have killed off in the ecosystem

I just looked up the car crashes and it was 3 people to hospital as a direct result of the traffic, I got casualties mixed up with deaths. I'll edit my comment to say.

There's no exact figure on ambulances delayed, but given all the traffic it caused, but for heart attacks (all I could find good data on) the chances of surviving are halved in a 4 minute period (https://www.ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/JAHA.120.017048), so factoring in all serious injuries there's a decent chance that at least one outcome was severely affected if not changed to death as a result of an ambulance being delayed.

London is the sixth largest Fr*nch city 🤮

Who's suggesting that people are using if statements for arithmetic?

The only time that you can feasibly replace an if statement with arithmetic is if it's a boolean, but frankly that's an edge case... Also if you're not writing in rust or c or whatever then don't worry as the interpreter will run a huge amount of branches for every line of code (which is what all your nested ifs, switches, gotos, returns etc. will compile down to anyway)

Key being some words

Both have evolved, so it's unsurprising that if you pick and choose your words American English is more similar to 17c English

Iirc though the most similar are west country and a few accents from the southern states in the US, but they've evolved a lot too so they're not most similar in every way

Issue is Canada can't force them to do business there. If they continue introducing flawed legislation that is awful at doing what it's supposed to do, then Meta's just gonna get tf outta there. Canada aren't big enough to have that much of a dent on their income, so it's just not worth it.

Good joke

XCFE feels like it came from that XP/Vista period where UIs were moving away from looking like they were drawn in a terminal but hadn't quite reached "fluidity" or whatever other bs marketers call modern UIs... I could understand a tiling dm being called better than both but given XCFE is only better at being lightweight, that's a self-placed restriction because it's very reasonable to say most people can run either KDE or Gnome with virtually undetectable overhead

Kagi is akin to using Google in incognito mode though... They use Google's index for the most part and that's why you get the exact same results.

If you want to not use Google, your choices are effectively Bing (and others which use its indices such as DuckDuckGo, Ecosia etc.), Baidu, Yahoo, Yandex or Qwant.

Solar panels producing noise pollution? What?

That's kinda but a small dent in my hopes for the game but hopefully the rest is good...

Depends on your device

My 5 year old laptop's screen is so dim that on bright days you fully can't see dark mode, but my phone and monitor work just fine on dark mode on all but the brightest days

I use spaces, but tabs use fewer characters, are easier to edit and allow for people to have custom indentation levels...
