All of space is moving, you need to fix a reference point, there's nothing to stop you making it earth

Or avoid a decrease in profit, which is why you get so many posturing bandwagons which slow down once enough people have forgotten that it won't affect profits anymore, eg all the statements and policy, name, logo etc changes due to BLM in mid-late 2020

Edge cases exist, some people are xxx, xxy, xyy etc.

General concensus is that if there's a Y in the mix you're biologically male at birth but it's a bit of a grey area

I was 99% sure Finland for the first one though, but somewhat makes sense

It's not so much a circlejerk as much as a knowledge that KDE plasma is the most approachable DE with the most polished first experience for the majority of new users

The reason it gets interpreted as Gnome bad is that both Plasma and Gnome both mainly target users who want something that just works out of the box and doesn't have a steep learning curve, however KDE have managed to keep up better with what new users want in recent years while Gnome has fallen into a semi-trap of doing what their current/older users want. That doesn't mean it's a bad distro, frankly it's great for their current users, however it does little for newer users who may not find it as intuitive as other DEs, therefore making it a worse default DE for "off-the-shelf" distros targeting new Linux users.

At the end of the day though, it is about personal choice, and nobody's saying i3 isn't better for powerusers or that LXDE doesn't run faster, but if you have the knowledge that you want to install one of those or the many other DEs available, then you can just find the iso/distro/package with that DE and install it rather than just clicking the all-in-one-guaranteed-to-work-lts download button on the distro's homepage

I'm not sure, if you're racing me in a 100m sprint and you do it in 15 seconds, that's pretty useless information depending on whether I'm at the 90m mark or beyond the finish at that point, so it's primarily a race against the speed I travelled at

For real though

It's all the fun banning puritans who got booted out of the country after their coup and subsequent dictatorship finally got overthrown who were the bulk of the Thirteen Colonies, which largely just left the "love thy neighbour" Christians who actually campaign against racism, homophobia, climate change and whatever else can be seen as people insulting "God's creation" which frankly I can completely get behind even if I don't believe it as such.

Frankly I don't get the mind bending logic to ignoring all the "everyone is God's child, he has made them as he sees fit, he loves them, you should love them too" stuff in the bible and skipping past to a small subsection which says that men shouldn't sleep together, especially when they ignore the fact that the same section says that anyone who works on a Sunday should be put to death along with a bunch of other wild and wacky stuff that we just all collectively agree was a product of the time it was written...

the appeal was declined instantaneously

I hate this so much and it was the reason I left Facebook after receiving a "warning" for the first time and getting the appeal denied despite the comment being completely benign (something like "why does Brazil fucking hate Czechs so much?" under a map of Brazil's approval of each country in Europe, where their approval of Czechia was remarkably low - I appreciate it probably saw "fucking hate Czechs" and flagged it, but any remotely human reviewer should have seen the context and immediately understood, especially when running a more in depth review as part of the appeal)

All the major tech companies seem to do this and I don't know why they even bother... If you want to give the illusion you're considering the appeal, leave it at least an hour or so, but if you're auto-declining them then just don't give people the option to appeal in the first place as you'll just make them mad

You can, but as a part of doing what they want serverside they can ask for some kind of proof you don't have an adblocker on the server-side, you can reverse engineer that and spoof the checks and it becomes an arms race just like we have now... You're effectively just saying the status quo is a-ok with you

3-1-4-2 would work and give 70% work to 30% off - currently we have 71.4% work in a 7 day week so it's pretty similar with less friday burnout

Wikipedia is a source unless you're writing an academic paper or for Wikipedia. It's far more accurate than most news sites and for the most part immune to political bias, as the only way it can be biased is to exclude things but if you do then someone else will just add them in

I just showed that the source given went directly against what was being said in the comment

Both contribute to the combustion, but it's the metal that's fuelling it while water plays the role that air/oxygen usually would. I think codyslab did a video where he had a flame fed by air in an atmosphere of methane which demonstrates the concept that actually you need both fuel and oxidiser for the flame, and one "burns" in an "inert" atmosphere of the other
