  • Honestly "cultural influence" kinda sounds like "you get paid with exposure".

  • Would you consider writing some of this stuff for Wikinews (the Wikimedia Foundation project, not to be confused with Wikileaks)?

  • hopefully y'all are anarchists, because I am and I don't see why there's seemingly so much opposition to "all states are bad" even here when there's so many supporters of "all cops are bad"

  • mel brooks is the director and lead writer

  • That’s OLED, this is the original Switch, hardware 8-years-old.

  • okay that's enough. here's the actual answer:

    People have told me I don’t know how good I have it.

    That my complaints about Linux['s accessibility for the blind] are too much. That I’m spoiled. That back in the day, things were harder. That Windows XP was worse in every way. That modern systems are faster, more usable, more accessible — and I’m just being dramatic.

    So I decided to call that bluff.

    —part 1

    One of the points Fireborn made in their famous "I Want to Love Linux. It Doesn’t Love Me Back" series is that Linux accessibility has deteriorated a lot over time.

  • Argh, I chose this AMP article over one that displayed properly because it didn't seem to have a paywall. Guess that was just my browser extension. I'll see what I can do.

  • The chevron is a shape present in many flags in general.

    I don't really understand why progress pride flag with the intersex flag is so rare though either.

    Me neither.

  • seriously though maybe try the cozy-ish social game Sky: Children of the Light.

  • Where are you seeing owls being enslaved in the article? It says the initiative builds and expands habitats for owls.

    And even if they were being enslaved, that's better than minefields of (artificial) poison in our (natural) environment. Even if you're a vegan, there's enslaved hordes of plants behind your survival. It's always what's better.

  • I don't think digesting and water absorption are the same thing. Hydration is absorbing the water and digestion is processing what's left besides the water.

  • Regressive taxes are far, far more cost efficient than means testing. And like I said, the costs saved by eliminating fare are already factored in. They're $33 million per year, and I added an extra $52 million on top of that for good measure.

  • RJM is chair of the Scientific Advisory Board for the European Hydration Institute. PW has received funding in the last 3 y from the European Hydration Institute for other hydration-related research. None of the other authors reported a conflict of interest related to the study.

    Could not find much more information on this institute. It ran an introduction to a conference in a supplement to a trusted, peer-reviewed journal but supplements have a general reputation of being advertisements.

  • article links to a yahoo version of 2019 CNN which links to a 2016 study with a URL resulting in a redirect to the new standalone website for the journal now-declared-independence instead of a DOI I had to rescue from the archives which now links to the ScienceDirect hosting of the article instead: https://doi.org/10.3945/ajcn.115.114769 (Thankfully open (archive) access)

    In summary, the present study describes a novel tool to enable the objective assessment of the effectiveness of beverages to maintain hydration status. The BHI is reproducible and the pattern of response for a range of commonly consumed beverages is consistent with what is known about the effects of their constituents on water balance.
