Turn the news off and look at the data. It’s important to end these conflicts, but in terms of scale, these are far smaller than the past.

Turn the news off and look at the data. It’s important to end these conflicts, but in terms of scale, these are far smaller than the past.
Here’s homicides per capita in Western Europe. I highly recommend reading The Better Angels of Our Nature by Steven Pinker. It goes into this in depth.
Violence has been going down for centuries. We’re hearing about it more, but it’s declining. It peaked around 1993, and it’s been trending downward ever since.
If you zoom out and look at super long term trends, it’s been declining for centuries.
HTML is not a programming language
It’ll take so long before you can even leave your physical ID at home and count on everyone accepting your digital one. And it may never happen that people stop accepting your physical one.
It’s so people can trial having digital IDs. Some TSA and others can scan the new IDs, but not everyone can. So in the meantime, you have to carry your physical one too.
People are pointing out potential negatives, but this has some good possibilities for privacy too. If you show your ID at the liquor store, there’s no need for the clerk to know your name or address. The scanner can just verify your age.
Everyone’s talking about the tech, but I’ll talk about the user base. When you make a post or comment on Reddit, it often feels like you get lost in some black hole of other posts or comments. No one sees your comment because there are 1000 other comments on the same post.
At Lemmy, there are fewer users and fewer comments, but your comments actually get seen. People upvote. I weirdly get way more upvotes at Lemmy than I did at Reddit, in spite of the smaller user base here. Because of that, I’m way more active here than I was on Reddit.
You can also use a custom UI. I recommend VueTorrent.
In fact, using this mod, you can even have Docker download it and keep it up to date. In qBittorrent you just need to change the WebUI location to /vuetorrent.
https://simplelogin.io/ There are other services like this too. Create a separate email address for every service and forward it to your real one. If one of them won’t stop sending emails you don’t want, just turn off that email address.
We never left the Cold War, we just pretended we did. Instead, since then, we’ve also seen the effects of climate change much more, and we’re much further along in the resulting mass extinction event. Unfortunately, I agree with them.
AirVPN allows a reserved port, so you don’t even have to change the setting in your client every time your port changes.
Checks notes… yep, it’s terminal.
It’s been timing out for me over the last few days too
I have a second instance of Prowlarr running with this fork. The issue with ABB is that it blocks Prowlarr’s user agent. This fork changes the user agent and re-enables ABB.

It’s actually not. This is seeing black, blindness isn’t seeing at all.
“I’m the king of the world, you piece of shit!”
“Rosebud, you piece of shit.”
Look at the sentence you wrote. Since the Korean War. And the Korean War was the biggest since the one before that.
