If it's everything you do, then no, I struggle a lot with work ethic/just being a lazy pos but even then I do have some things I enjoy and am willing to work for... I think finding more things I enjoy (cycling, dnd & programming mainly) has helped a lot with that, so I feel like just trying new things and being willing to "give up" on them fast if you don't like them may be good?

Wikipedia's job isn't free to be anti- or pro- anything, it's to show facts free from bias, even if you and most other readers agree with that bias.

Of course the facts can clearly show something to be almost objectively evil to anyone capable of understanding them, but it's not for Wikipedia to perform any analysis of those facts - saying "Israel has killed X civilians in attacks which many of their allies claimed were completely avoidable [citation]" in an article featured on the front page is perfectly valid, however a big banner with a Palestinian flag is not as it's a (fair) interpretation of the facts and not simply a presentation of them.

I believe none except colonising space... The others are so far off that we don't even know for sure if they're even possible, what's going to go wrong or whether we're looking in the complete wrong direction, meanwhile you're dismissing the only realistic one in the next 250 years because we're close enough that we actually know how hard it is.

There's something to be said about chasing after things that are impossible as the possible seems too hard, but I'm not enough of a philosopher for that.

Bro look up Italy they invented it in like 1800

I mean the best way to increase the value of your ad space is to have a small but visible amount and to produce content good enough that advertisers come to you, rather than the other way around

The issue there is that it takes effort to produce good content and it's easier to just paraphrase existing/ai generate new content, which results in a "read more" button (unrelated to a "enter your email to read more" option which is 100% for advertising as a replacement for 3rd party cookies, and allows for users to see and decide exactly what websites to share their identity with as an active decision, rather than shadier stuff behind the scenes like cookies or fingerprinting where they're tracking you without you even knowing, so expect to see a lot more of it as they go away)

To me this reads as classism rather than racism but they don't want to open up that can of worms

Any 1st/2nd generation immigrants are likely to be worse off, so show me Black, Romanian, Italian, Australian, Chinese data and I bet they're all similar figures (similar to working class British people as things like incomplete credit history etc. will balance out removing upper classes from the data)

It's just an effort to turn people against each other based on skin colour so the people doing the discriminating can claim they're good as they're not racist, and everyone is too distracted to notice

I have bad news for you unless you're buying direct from local farms I guess

Posted 4:39 Irish time

Either you're perpetually online and in an echo chamber (hexbear moment) or you're very much not Irish.

Regardless, republicanism and republican slogans are rightly popular, but the (provisional) IRA is not in the slightest, again just like the Islamic symbolism which is used by Muslims but also by extremists who regular people would want no association with.

Tell me you're either not Irish or a teenager without telling be you're a not Irish or a teenager.

Very few people who lived through the IRA of the 70s to 00s would be saying "BuT tHeY wErE tHe GoOd GuYs 100 YeArS aGo" - to most people the Provisional IRA are the IRA because the original IRA is a thing of history books these days.

As for the loyalist paramilitaries, they were terrorists too. Just because they were doesn't mean the IRA weren't.

Don't worry, I'm autistic too, it just so happens that I don't hide behind it or use it as my whole identity and I'm self-aware enough to put in a bunch of extra effort trying to do the things which don't come naturally, like seeing things other points of views

It's fucking hard but at least I don't live in a perpetually online bubble

Not at all, they're both disgusting groups of people (as were & are unionist extremists) who ruined the lives of people they claim to be liberating

Frankly they're incredibly similar organisations
