Hey here’s a thought: let’s get rid of all the laws requiring single-unit detached housing. That should open up some new housing in places people want to live.

I thought Arch was notorious for breaking all the time? Is that a specific version of Arch?

I couldn’t find any information as to why, but playing around with other symbols suggests it only does it with symbols where they assume the space isn’t supposed to be there. E.G. Colon, ending parenthesis, equals sign, etc. Digging around in the settings I couldn’t find any option to disable this functionality.

Folks elsewhere suggested switching to the Swype keyboard, but I don’t have personal experience with it in a very long time so I don’t know anything about the settings and automatic behavior.

While race is mostly a social construct, it’s easier to use race as shorthand for “populations with long-term historical ancestry in a loosely defined geographical area, accepting that population mixing has been occurring since the dawn of time and will continue to do so into the future” than it is to say that whole thing every time

BUT, it’s my understanding that, for example, Pacific Islanders are generally healthy at a higher body fat percentage than other groups of humans.

BMI is useful for historical population comparisons because you can calculate it using just height and weight and it’s already been in use for a very long time. It’s so crude as to be very misleading when applied to individuals, especially if you decide to turn your brain off when deciding how to evaluate the information.

The origins of the calculation are immaterial. It’s value is in comparative studies, not direct judgement. The actual judgement of “good” vs “bad” BMI numbers is dumb(ish) but it is good for comparing populations across both time and space.

When talking in a clinical sense, I think we need to standardize on a numerical standard, like body fat percentage or BMI. It’s my understanding that people want to get away from BMI because it’s crude, and I agree, but communicating in numbers will make things less confusing. Healthy body fat ranges depend on race, gender, and age, but it would still be better than using words the public has coopted to become unclear.

Without knowing the numbers, it’s impossible for me to make a judgment call on the release, but it’s important to remember that literally everything around you is radioactive. Just because the water has measurable amounts of radioactive material in it does not mean it’s unsafe. Ocean water is 3 parts per billion uranium, and yet people happily eat ocean fish.

Again, without knowing the numbers I can’t say for sure, but depending on what’s in the water (and how much there is) it very well could be entirely fine to dump it.

In any case, yeah I totally agree. It’s a publicity stunt.

Well shit, sign me up!

I have no idea what F-Droid is, but I tried them all and I actually like the UI of the official app the best. It’s missing a few features, but they’re still improving it and integrating all the features.

There’s a few places that didn’t get cars until later and “no thank you” was a very common reaction. We really ought to just ban private ownership.

Hello hello hello!

I don’t believe it! I don’t believe it!

Ah!

No you don’t!

Yeach.

Yes correct, sorry if that was confusing.

Being rich literally makes you delusional.

You vastly over estimate the willingness of people to learn how a computer works.

FYI I’m seeing the post as having 5 comments but I can only see 1, so I apologize if you made a comment and I don’t reply. I checked my language settings but everything is enabled including undermined.

Honestly, if we could stop this cultural race war for like two seconds we’d have a way better society. I just went healthcare end high speed rail.

Yeah, I agree. It’s not hard to build infrastructure that lasts forever, it’s just no one wants to pay for it.

We’ve been warning about dangerous infrastructure for years now. It’ll only get worse until we start building for the next millennium.

God damn people are generous.

I don’t use computers, so I’m not eligible, but I just want to say thanks for doing this! I’m sure people are going to love their new games!

You can switch back to 3 and 2 button navigation in the settings if you want. I use the 3 button navigation. I use all three buttons.

I think it’s their way of admitting gestures is stupid. Gestures makes it unclear where the OS UI ends and where the app UI begins. A completely shit idea.
