Why did so many die in Spain? Because Europe still hasn't accepted the realities of extreme weather | Severe flooding is, unfortunately, inevitable. What isn’t inevitable is how ready we are
  • Because Europe has been exporting their dirty laundry to poorer countries, and exploiting them, so they can point at them to claim moral/scientific/technological/military superiority.

    But, they didn't realize it's the same fucking earth that has a climate that's deeply intertwined.

    Now watch them point to poor countries to do more to avert the climate change like they are a saint with good PR.

  • When developers consider their project at "alpha" stage, users should really be wary of the consequences.

    So much hype around this browser and everyone touting it, but then, if something breaks and their profile is messed up, then people lose their mind and start cursing the devs.

    tldr; It's an alpha build software, and users should treat it as such. Latest build is Alpha build - 1.0.1-a.17 (2024-10-31)

  • My solar powered everyday carry electronics

  • The Tuskegee Syphilis Study, officially titled “The Tuskegee Study of Untreated Syphilis in the Negro Male,” was a study conducted by the United States Public Health Service (PHS) from 1932 to 1972. It involved nearly 600 impoverished African-American in Tuskegee, Alabama, with the aim of observing the effects of untreated syphilis on the human body. The men were not informed about the true nature of the experiment and were deceived by the researchers.

    The unethical nature of the study came to light in 1972 when it was exposed by a whistleblower, Peter Buxtun. The study had a lasting impact on public health efforts and contributed to a deep-seated mistrust within the African American community towards medical professionals and government health initiatives.
