Btw I use Arch
Yeah, the sadistic psychopath students are blameless, as are the parents who raised them and the cutthroat individualistic society that favors narcissistic traits.
It's ironic to watch the self-delusions unfold in countries that have working multi-party voting systems, and a dedicated green party. In self-interest/status quo preservation, voters avoid them like the plague because "they are too extreme", and rather vote for some other party that puts up a fake eco-friendly front based on some technological pipe dream & shoveling off responsibilities to other countries.
Previous election in Norway (late 2021), the green party were the only ones who went to election with a pledge to stop search&test drilling for new oil fields (extraction from the currently running & newly prospected oil fields will run well into the 2050's)- they got below 4% of the votes, and no other party wanted to include them in negotiations for forming a government, because they were "too extreme".
Today, the foreign minister of the government lead the Dubai climate negotiations and pretended to be disappointed that other countries blocked the term "end our dependency on fossil fuel", and that they had to compromise for something vaguer like "start the transition away from fossil fuel" or something like that...
It's common for the people who vote these stooges into office to say stuff like "the politicians aren't doing enough to combat the climate crisis". The hypocrisy lies thick in the air.
Totally made up claim, the average passenger car age is 12.2 years in the US, and 12 years in Europe. BMW market share is 2.4% in the U.S., 6.7% in Europe. Similar figures for Mercedes are 2.5% U.S. vs. 5% Europe.
Yeah, for example convicted pedos have a higher suicide rate than the average - I don't think most people believe that is a statistic we should work on changing.
In 1991 we paid around $60 for the best Nintendo NES video games (we had 22% VAT at the time in my country). That's roughly $127 adjusted for inflation.
"Punch Drunk Love" in the theater back then, and was mesmerized by it.
Btw if you liked the female lead of Punch Drunk Love and like movies that explore depressive topics, you should see Breaking the Waves
I read an interview of locals from an Ukrainian village that got invaded - the Russians rolled in and asked the locals "where are the Nazis? Lead us to them!", and were surprised that the locals just asked them to leave, instead of cheering for their "liberation ".
So the propaganda certainly reached the military, at least.
More specifically, I think any gesture that swipes across the edge of an image will close it, which makes it impossible to view the edges of a zoomed image, like the /r/place screenshots.
I prefer the way Relay for Reddit handled images:
- Double tap and then swipe to zoom in/out, instead of requiring a two-finger pinch
- Single tap to close image/go back
- Swipe to move around in the image
I don't know what data (if any) he is basing his claims on, but Israel struck a deal with Pfeizer to be the first country to do a large scale/full population trial, in exchange for a speedy rollout and a lot of data gathering (and paying a lot of money, Imof course).
So it's expected that their early and high vaccination rates are reflected in the number of serious infections/deaths.
