Your post does contain the line “they remained unhappy with the broader policy of respect for trans identities”, which to me reads as being at least pretty similar to having “issue with transgender identities.” But I’m an outsider to all this and may be missing context.
I mean, there is a crisis, in that we are imprisoning innocent people, but yes
there are two healthy sex phenotypes … and b) the result of something going wrong.
What about intersex people makes them “unhealthy”? What makes what their bodies do “wrong”?
Everything else is a) extremely rare
Intersex people are about as common than redheads. Would you agree with the statement that redheads are the exception that proves the rule that there are 3 hair colors, blond, brown, and black?
[Edit: more common -> about as common]
Yeah, wanna point out which one of us had the insurrection that ended up with someone dead and attack on the capitol again? Oh wait.
Yes, it is worse here, as I admitted. Even factoring in hyperbole, though, this is not a papercut vs. missing limbs situation. It didn’t pan out, but the Convoi de la liberté could have escalated to something similar if they weren’t so incompetent.
I get that Canadians can focus on both. I do think Canadians should criticize the US, same as I think USians should. It’s also understandable to worry about what’s going on here, as we are very close by and have huge influence over world events.
But, Canadians do use how bad the US is as an excuse to ignore their own problems. I have seen it. And yes, lots of Canadians don’t! But the Canadians I know who understand things are bad tend to acknowledge this as a part of the problem.
What exactly do you expect Canada to do to help fix our electoral problems?
Canada is not that much better off than the US politically (though to be sure they are better off). They too have a Trumpy conservative candidate who is projected to win in an election. Their left/center-left parties are fractured facing off a unified right. They also suffer from a non-representative electoral system (still mad at Trudeau for failing to keep his promise there). And one big factor in how this is possible is that they can look down at the US and say “at least we’re not THAT bad” when things get worse for them.
So yeah, I do think they would benefit from spending some more time looking at their own problems.
Here, I drew the word “Just” in this post

Ok, but we all should admit: .net is a terrible name.
“it” in this case is to magically add a centimeter or so of paper to the left side of the 't
IMO the best way to ensure that traffic always goes through a VPN is to use network namespaces. The wireguard website has an article describing the process. In a nutshell, you create a dedicated namespace to put the physical interface in, create the wireguard interface in that namespace, then move the wireguard interface to the root (“normal”) namespace. That way the only way to get traffic out without the VPN is to run a program in that dedicated namespace.
This is a paper about it by the same guy: . I found it while reading an NYT article about AI consumption.
This is a specific (and probably the most well-known) case, but for details about how the Bitcoin Energy Consumption Index is calculated, you can hit https://digiconomist.net/bitcoin-energy-consumption and look under the header “Energy consumption model and key assumptions”. There is a summary and a link to a paper detailing their methods. Skepticism about science reporting is super important! And I’m certainly willing to have my mind changed, but it looks like there’s a lot of substance to these claims.
The problem Fox News have with Taylor Swift isnt her carbon emissions, it is her hypocrisy.
I mean, no. If she didn’t fly on a private jet, they’d find something else to ding her on. Their problem with her is that she’s not entirely on their side.
Who gives a shit. This isn’t news.
I heard of a Canadian trying to exercise their fifth amendment right. Really unfortunate to try in a place without such a right.
About 30% of the population here are like this, yes. And the cool thing is that it’s been spreading to other countries. For instance, QAnon spread to Germany. They thought Trump was going to come save them from Merkel.
So I searched a few of these names. One of them did run as a democrat, but lost in the primary. Otherwise, so far as I can tell, these are just random black people who are calling themselves democrats. So I’m unsure why this is terribly surprising.
[Edit: should have read the article, one of the people is a Democrat lawmaker]
But sure, keep thinking you understand the issue better than people who have studied everything about the issue and are actually paid for their knowledge.
Actually, looking at the source, they openly disagree with you. Here is what they say:
“We now have a credible prospect that inflation will return to 2% in 2025. The only piece that’s missing is the conviction that wage growth will adapt to that lower inflation”, the Dutch central bank governor said in an interview with Dutch TV program Buitenhof.
They are saying inflation is going down, but wage growth may not be. In other words, they aren’t keeping interest rates high to combat inflation, they are doing so to combat wage growth and wage growth alone. The only person here who thinks wage growth and inflation move in lockstep is you.
Could you elaborate? Because I’m confused by what you could mean here. What is the broader policy that they disagree with? You say they “did agree with the specific neopronouns policy”, so it seems like you are saying they agree that “harassment based on gender or neopronouns [should] remain prohibited—even if the user in question was suspected of being a troll”? If the broader policy is a policy of “respect for trans identities”, it seems like the only thing about the policy they have a problem with is its respect for trans identities.
