Your killing babies point demonstrates a common error with this kind of debate: there are a ton of steps you could take to stop a baby growing up Christian before you jump straight to killing it. A lot of them are also probably abhorrent li

Well, that made me unreasonably happy, thank you Edit: and then realise it's not applicable to android Firefox where I do most of my browsing, but thank you anyway.

Weil, good for GDPR. Meantime, is there anything I can do to report sites that don't follow the letter of it?

Or take some mildly grey area technical steps to get around it. I don't see too many ads these days between the pihole & newpipe & whatever adblockers I've got on Firefox. Traditional TV when we watch the news is basically

As a very much devils advocate, one could argue that some companies make a revenue steam or of serving ads, so taking steps to do that is their legitimate business. I personally think that's a screwed up business model but there you ar

Personally I nearly always take the time to scroll through and untick all the permissions, or find a different site because screw them, that's why. I realise I'm in the minority.

I can say that I've got a much more open mind via conversions I've had with strangers on various platforms over the years. My feminism is much more informed and mature than it would be if I hadn't had access to the differing

Haha that would have been helpful to include. Thanks for picking up my slack!

As someone who's lived here 10 years you're spot on. I hear it all went to pot when they tried to reorganise DB to prepare it for privatisation, which never really happened, and centralised everything around Frankfurt. So now it&#

So... that's OK then..?

There is a treasure trove, it's just mixed in with a lot of trash. Like panning for gold, you need to know where the good lodes are and recognise it when you see it.

I assume tech moves on so fast that you have to rewrite the course every year. But you do have some certifications which go some of the way, for example the sun certifications for Java.. At least you know the holder will have an idea how it

They come as part of the tent or what? Tell me more I'm intrigued.

Nordic walking seems to be popular among people of late middle age in Germany too.

I was there last year, and to be fair, the road isn't metalled, it's mostly large white stones like gravel but about 5-10cm big. Even a single car kicks up a lot more dust than it would on a "normal" asphalt road. Not th

It's funny because externally Germany somehow has the reputation of perfect punctuality, I can only assume that country stereotypes tend to be outdated.

If you want to keep your phone on, street complete can be very rewarding, especially in places with not so much osm coverage.

I've found that vague reasons like "it's best practice", "that's the way it should be done" & "that's not scrum" are usually thrown about by people who don't actually know why they&

No, we didn't have such easy access to such high energy foods before.

I can phrase that in a less "woke" way, if that helps you ;-)

What's your opinion of bandcamp?

by developer93 3y ago
In 2023 you would expect the be able to represent women easily. This is quite a blasé response, and feels exclusionary.

Indeed, which is why I call myself an environmentalist. I just mean that other life surviving without humans isn't good enough for me, I want the human race to continue in some form.

Did I say anything about western civilisation? I'm talking about humanity. It's quite a leap for you to assume I don't regard countries from the global south as civilised...

Don't give a shoot about life, it's humans I'm interested in.

Not depressed but gives me a strange queasy feeling to look at my town from a time when there was no life on land.. Kinda lonely by proxy..

Try a closer time frame and work backwards

If you're right, that's probably a good thing, not sure it'll be enjoyable.. However records are being broken much faster than the worst predictions, so it might be faster than you think.

They hit it on the head with their last sentences but managed to go steaming past the point with nary a glance.
