They explicitly said this wasn’t the solution for everyone 😊

Yes, it’s a bit different.

In Kbin they are user-defined. If kbin.social was online I’d share a link.

Yes, like this https://piefed.social/topics

I agree on the sensationalism in the article.

Biden stumbled and lost the tread in the opening minutes but is doing well now.

Trump is doing a good job at being Trump. Pretty tired of him ignoring the question and talking about whatever he likes and the moderator letting him.

The article links to this as technical proof https://grizzlyreports.com/we-believe-pdd-is-a-dying-fraudulent-company-and-its-shopping-app-temu-is-cleverly-hidden-spyware-that-poses-an-urgent-security-threat-to-u-s-national-interests/

There’s analysis of decompiled source code.

Now we have BBC printing stuff like this:

“It’s going to be like Mad Max.” “There will be no humanity. There will be no charity. There will be no fairness…

I fondly remember the days when rising sea levels, “sometime in 2100 or whenever” was the main climate-related thing. That was nice. Back then, the idea of tipping points was the realm of wild-eyed doomers that no one took seriously. Heat domes? Wildfires? Ocean death? Mass migration? Just science fiction.

Ahh, good times.

No one is keeping track of how enthusiastically they do it or writing official reports on it or encouraging more of it. It’s the interest the govt takes in it that makes it weird(er).

This might all be made up. See https://www.nknews.org/2024/06/fact-check-north-korea-has-not-announced-plans-to-send-troops-to-ukraine-yet/

I’ve never heard of NK News before so - https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/nk-news/. Seems Ok.

In other news articles they’re described as support troops or engineers. They’d be building things, cooking meals, driving trucks, repairing stuff. Maybe occasionally get a HIMARS dropped on them but certainly not storming trenches.

Yes, I’ve been using it continuously since then.

I made an extension called “Cache Longer” which forces static assets to be cached for 6 months, regardless of what the website wants. If any website starts looking janky or stops working, just do a hard refresh (very rarely needed).

Those caveats are pretty standard and uncontroversial when it comes to crime statistics. Source: I studied Sociology 101 at university.

Unless something has happened that would make people less likely to report crimes or less likely for there to be convictions, etc then I see no reason why these crime stats would be any more unreliable than usual.

Yes your frustration is totally understandable. It is a very heated topic and a lot of bad faith arguments are thrown around.

Sometimes I remind myself not to hope that the person I’m replying to will understand my reply or acknowledge that I’m right - instead I post my reply for the lurkers to read, who are far more numerous. The lurker has not publicly said anything so their ego is not fixed on defending their position and they are more likely to receive what I contribute with an open mind.

With this wider context, the goal changes. When the target audience shifts to the readers then there is no longer a need to continue a long back and forth discussion (the person replying to me will never change their mind anyway!) once I have made my point clearly. It’s ok if the other person has the last word if by having it they discredit themselves by demonstrating a closed mind - the lurkers will see it.

I hope this helps.

I’ve been reading your posts. You make excellent points very often, clearly drawing from a deep knowledge of the region.

However continually calling people names and insulting their intelligence will tend to stop them from really hearing your message and just inflame the situation. You could just not type that stuff and then everything else you type would have more impact. It’d be a pity to waste all that effort.

LOCK HIM UP, LOCK HIM UP

No, not really. Autism is pretty distinctive, there’s far more signs to spot than being quiet and awkward.

I don’t think trac has any kind of kanban UI to it, btw. They might have added it by now, it’s been years since I used it.

It depends what you were using Jira for - it has a lot of features, most of which you were probably not using.

Trac has a wiki, tickets and git all in one - https://trac.edgewall.org

NextCloud has a plugin called ‘Tasks’ which looks similar to Trello.

Forgejo is similar to github - https://forgejo.org/

Yup, very good idea that one 👍
