Re:Hezbollah pager explosions kill several people in Lebanon on Tuesday September 17, 2024 @03:13PM (#41571530)
if someone next to you in a supermarket was wounded from an explosive like the video shows, do you think perplexed and completely unharmed would be a good description for your experience? Maybe we saw different videos, but it's pretty hard to make such a generalized statement from a few seconds of video.
I've tried plenty of ear plugs for sleep, loud environments, and concerts. I'd stay clear of anything that's clearing putting most of the money into marketing like loop and talk to a audiologist or someone in the music industry. I ended up getting mine from "1of1 custom"[1] based on some research and references. They're a bit pricey, but based on the amount of loud environments I'm in they're literally life savers. I pair it with a sound level app made by NIOSH to let me know when I should put them in at bars/concerts.

I'm not entirely familiar with tangled trees, but it seems like one of the larger differences is that a tangled tree isn't necessarily acrylic. For this example, someone could navigate away from one page, but potentially be linked back to it later down the adventure.
I don't think it works that well at very small zoom scales (larger than a small state). I'm seeing a few machines here locally in San Francisco
Here's Twitter's documentation on how they identify state-affiliated media[1]. This excerpt makes the decision seem outside of the defined process:

  State-affiliated media is defined as outlets where the state exercises control 
  over editorial content through financial resources, direct or indirect 
  political pressures, and/or control over production and distribution. Accounts 
  belonging to state-affiliated media entities, their editors-in-chief, and/or 
  their prominent staff may be labeled.

  State-financed media organizations with editorial independence, like the BBC 
  in the UK for example, are not defined as state-affiliated media for the 
  purposes of this policy.

I find it slightly weird that a product that's characterized by its attention to resolution and crispiness has no images/video or obvious links to such in their README.

Curious, what split are you going for your daily 2k? In college, I was doing semiregular 2k tests, and I could never imagine trying to uphold a regular schedule of them.

Looks like the free tier tickets are sold out, but the wording on the page makes it seem like there shouldn't be any gating from signing up on the free level.

Please let me know if it opens up again!

I just got home from waiting for a 3080, got there over an hour before opening, and they still ran out before I could get one. This is something like >3 mo after release.
Re:The Laptev Sea hasn't frozen on Thursday October 29, 2020 @02:40PM (#24933911)
Are you insinuating that these ships are a driving force in inhibiting the formation of ice, that the lack of ice will be beneficial to these routes, or some other thought that I'm not seeing?
By the way I love the product :)
I might be a dummy, but if I create a card with a checkbox and nothing else I can't seem to edit it. Is this a bug?
What are some good, unbiased reviews of the Model Y? Other than Doug DeMuro(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xAXDcTH6hPw), every other YouTube reviewer I've found has some stake in Tesla or is a Tesla/EV fanboy.
Interesting, thanks!
Re:Whose Land – Indigenous Nations of North America on Friday July 10, 2020 @02:43PM (#23794842)
I agree, I do think it is disingenuous to make a blanket statement on Native American's knowledge of land ownership and border establishment. I was merely interpreting what the original comment said.

Given your points, is there a more correct way to define the lands once inhabited by Native peoples?

Re:Whose Land – Indigenous Nations of North America on Friday July 10, 2020 @02:35PM (#23794751)
Is there any way to refute a flagging? I think the original comment spawned some great conversation which relies on it being visible.
Re:Whose Land – Indigenous Nations of North America on Friday July 10, 2020 @02:28PM (#23794682)
I'd concur, a colorblind approach would have detrimental effects to indigenous people. Colorblindness leads to ignorance and turns a blind eye to the past when working for a fair future. There's a great journal article on this exact subject:

Fryberg, S. A., & Stephens, N. M. (2010). When the world is colorblind, American Indians are invisible. Psychological Inquiry, 21, 115-119. doi: 10.1080/1047840X.2010.483847

Not the original commenter, but what I'm taking from it is that the notion of land ownership was/is foreign to indigenous people. Given that, using the term native land can be misrepresenting native history. I'm not sure what the alternative verbiage would be to describe an area has inhabited by an indigenous tribe. Urban Native Era, a pretty large Native movement/brand, holds the slogan "You Are On Native Land" and I believe they are holding themselves to a pretty high standard of racial sensitivity.
Do you have a source with that? Based off of the majority of my family members it seems like that would be the opposite. I wouldn't be surprised that there's a correlation between tech-savvy individuals and those who cancel straight to subscription trials right away.
I find it amusing that you hold a blanket thought that the theft of Native American land was the result of war games and not a mixture of deception, racism, genocide, breach of trust, and thievery.
Backing your argument up a sourceless source doesn't help

Wasn't there post on here just a few days ago about how Discord exactly does that? pretend to support end to end encryption? Someone created their own discord client and found that VOIP packets were being decrypted by discord in between clients

Believe it or not, a lot of people see going to coffee shops as a social experience. My SO works at a Starbucks and the amount of people that come in on a daily basis just to get human contact is very surprising.
