Dude I am not even from US.

Not my circus not my monkeys.

But your arguments are flawed

Here is the neat part…nobody will get involved for a matter of internal “policies” with the country with the biggest army in the world.

I suspect US is on its own now.

But at least libs have been owned, Biden has been punished for supporting Israel, the trans will not play sport (all 5 of them that wanted to)…

It’s so depressing that the social network disinformation campaigns where so effective 😕

How you dare to not be focus on her for few hours?!?

Let’s make a huge drama so you are focused on her asap!

I am not saying Democrats are good (or not corrupted)… but blaming democrats for what Republicans are doing is apologetic to republicans

“They would have done x if they were the majority “ is just your speculation. The reality is that the US voted this… and it’s getting this

It helps when they are not the minority… with a 10% margin

How can you tell firebase who to notify?

I guess you need a firebase id of sort… and firebase needs the device id… and firebase is an US Company… so it’s just an extra step but the result is the same. They have to store IDs that can link to devices

Not an expert but ephemeral IDs would not give you much.

AFIK under the hoods android notifications is just… a chat app (Ehehe classic google). So for sending a notification you need to send it to the ID of your mobile. Even if you manage to convince Android to register with an additional ephemeral ID Google would be able to map the ephemeral to the real since… well… it is running on the mobile

I think their argument is sounding.

Offering VPN is different from storing private information like a device ID. You don’t get notifications from your VPN.

I think it turned out worse than that.

I am ok with “question everything”, the problem is that people don’t believe in reputable sources that don’t confirm their beliefs, they look (possibly unreliable) sources that confirm them

I think it is due to the echo chamber of social networks. People have constant confirmation of superficial “sources” and they continue to want that.

Incidentally it’s the reason I use lemmy where the algorithm is not optimised to the point of echo chambers (also looking for “all” helps)

Ok I recognise the last two movies… but what are the first two? 🤔🤔

What about connecting to a mobile/theter and change password after you adjusted your settings? 🤷‍♂️

And internet is telling women it’s men fault. And poor people it’s immigrants fault. And insecure people it’s trans fault.

We are the most narcissistic generation ever: it’s always someone else fault… and while we are arguing online changes go in the wrong direction (more inequality, more war, less affordable education that means less social mobility)

I think the big value of these labels are not the energy class (like for bigger appliances) it’s the fields under the energy class. Repeatability, (official declaration of) battery duration, simple to spot resistance to dust/water, etc

Begin? 🤔🤔🤔

What year is this?

I am proud of you!

I am proud of your persistence in front of difficulties and challenges. I am proud of your achievements.

I am proud of you even if I haven’t told you before, I am proud even if I belittled you, even if I fucked up.

My behaviour and response to your efforts has nothing to do with you. Not a justification but it is about with my (generational) trauma and lack of seeing my own achievements. I would apologise for all the pain I caused to you if only my trauma allowed me to see, feel and realise all the pain I caused.

I think that, above all, I am proud that you are not repeating my own journey and you are a much better person than me.

I enjoyed listening him when was interviewed at this podcast https://www.thegreatsimplification.com/episode/164-peter-turchin

His methodology and arguments are quite reasonable and sounding.

I would recommend

His paper has been published on Nature… this because everyone can say the “end is nigh” but few people can come with mathematical models for showing it 🙂

I think you are forgetting the right of killing and injuring.

Land of freedom!

/s (if not obvious)

I would say “interests at large” rather than dollars.

Ukraine is military strategic interest (nobody in Europe wants to have Russia to randomly decide to start a war with an EU country)

In Middle East (with oil) is dollars

In Taiwan is military strategic interest

On the other side of the spectrum? Myanmar, Gaza, random African conflicts, etc

Start weightlifting, more specifically deadlifts. I would discourage you to go to CrossFit and anything that involves mixing cardio with strength.

Also, use as little machines as possible. 99% of the work is with dumbbells, barbells and a rack

/me that had back pain in his late 20-mid 30… and then started weightlifting and had never had a back pain 🙂
