How does this pass for a uni level essay? Not to belabour the point but this is a final grade assignment for a social and developmental psychology course and the best she could do is quote the bible (honestly could have given her some points for the "ezer kenegdo" insight and received less heat) but stating personal opinions as fact was a big wtf - I mean this reads like a primary school level submission.

like imagine this was like an astronomy class and the student said "believing the earth rotates around the sun is demonic as Chronicles 16:30 clearly states the world cannot be moved"

ah but you see these would make men's pps go hard for people with uteruses so they can pop out the new masterrace not "sex-rejecting" degenerates that only make men horny and confused since how will they live without being able to inseminate barely pubescent girls like it's the ritual for the pedophile party?

or worse still "healthy girls" that dare to reject their god appointed goal of having babies by "mutilating" their bodies (ie Irreversible Damage) will not be able to contribute to the expansion of the master race and then the "great replacement" theory will finally occur in its full effect and the white race will be no more...

and this comes right as Dump announces a merger with a nuclear fusion company?

something smells very fishy...

Ah I guess I was thinking of FOSS apps only but HWG looks decent, thanks!

I've tried OsmAnd, CoMaps (Organic) as well as Transportr - out of those OsmAnd seems to be the all around best one - it's still not ideal as it will often not find full addresses or just postcodes and it does have good public transit coverage in my experience but also struggles often enough to make it unreliable in a pinch requiring gmaps as backup. The UX is also a bit clunky but is super feature rich.

Transportr seems to be the best for public transit but coverage is limited and isn't available where I live.

CoMaps is the best UI wise but UX can be lacking (eg it doesn't have an origin destination bar at the top so if you're trying to navigate from a place you're not at you have to click search then the address then click on "route from" then go back and search for the destination then "route to" which is a hassle.) More critically it only has subways so no bus or rail which makes it a bit useless for me.

Also https://cycle.travel/map is really good for cycling but doesn't have an app so I use OsmAnd since it has so much useful customization (tho that may seem overwhelming to some)

also a good option if you want to ski or horseback ride around..

It's such a shame that both CoMaps and even OsmAnd have massive issues with public transport routing - I don't blame them as it's a really complex problem - I just wish I had alternatives to gmaps ;(

valid - so we should regulate them like assistive devices and make sure there's a certificates one can show so that exceptions can be made (like bringing a guide dog into a dog-free space)

furthermore such tools should be ideally democratized and made public but realistically at least in the hands of assistive tool companies as one user with sight loss notes:

The fact that the technology is backed by Meta means they can switch off that feature at any point. It's not a tech brand made for disability. They could decide they're not supporting it anymore and just turn off the functionality. We've seen that before with other platforms.

and while i've had moments where ive been "wow it would be so cool to snap a pic right now of a thing i don't have time to pull out my phone for" - the downside of such devices becoming as ubiquitous as smartphones so we end up in an era where everyone has a camera on their face at all times sounds too dystopian to be worth pursuing imo.

just to note - as part of their nomination StopAntiSemetism said:

Miss Rachel, no stranger to controversy, had previously dabbled in politics but, after facing backlash, quickly refocused on her brand and catering to children

what's the political controversy that caused backlash you ask? she made a video celebrating pride month... that's it..

and now this article shows she isn't just doing it to score brownie points but is actually what the genocide defenders fear most - an actually good person.

really makes me disgusted how Isntreal claims to be a safe haven for lgbtq+ people yet use us as both a weapon and a shield whenever convenient..

White man from South Africa (even further away than Somalia) - who was literally never voted into power yet got appointed anyways - says something racist - colour me shocked...

If you ask tankies they'll just tell you your friends were bourgeoisie and deserved to be put in camps for not being socialist enough...

For nuance's sake - there are still older generation folk that are vehemently pro-russia but they usually don't espouse socialist values but more nationalistic, Russian imperial interests and general anti-progressiveness as a supposed counter to US influence.

From what I've gathered it boils down to yearning for a simpler past when food was local and better, mixed with some nostalgia for their youth, as well as a healthy dose of convenient memory loss of the surveillance state and atrocities of the regime.

Nah I don't like authoritarian simpers either but Platner is pretty sus

Just 5 years ago he said he joined the marines because he:

Wanted to have an adventure and kill some people. Joined up in ‘04, did Fallujah and Ramadi, and managed both. Hell of an excellent experience.

Also he did definitely serve as a prison guard in Abu Ghraib and took part in suppressing people trying to liberate others from being imprisoned and tortured:

Later, while he was on patrol at Abu Ghraib, there was an attack on the prison. (It was nearly two years after human-rights abuses were first reported at the prison; Platner was not involved.) “That was my first real taste of combat,” he said.

Also he was calling everything bad "gay" and used "fags" as an insult as late as 2021 (oddly seems a bit closeted tbh but w/e)

And look it's not like the Mothership PAC lover Jordan Woods will fight the oligarchy so this kinda leaves Janet Mills who isn't ideal but idk at least she didn't rejoice in killing brown people 🤷

i wouldn't necessarily say its a nothingburger but it is hard to judge these things when lead contamination is inevitable

still I think it's more useful to look at average daily lead intake and compare to that baseline instead of arbitrary limits especially as you've noted there is no way to set a "safe" level of lead exposure

for adults this comes out to about 0.3μg of kg body weight - so at 70kg that's 21μg of lead which means that adding an extra 7μg per day via that huel protein increases your lead intake by a third - so it's up to you to decide if you think eating 30% more lead just for the gainz is worth it - i personally don't (especially when you can find powders that don't so this)

Why are we giving the light of day to a company that sent paramilitaries to kill union organizers? That has been confirmed to have murdered at least 14 union leaders in Colombia and 8 in Guatemala, with workers literally assembled at gunpoint inside Coke plants and told to quit the union or die?

A company that has been draining communities' water supplies in India, forcing wells to run dry and poisoning farmers' land, with $28 million in damages assessed (and never paid)? That sold products in India containing pesticides at 140 times EU safety limits, including banned carcinogens?

A company operating in illegal Israeli settlements on stolen Palestinian land, funding extremist pro-settlement groups, and contributing taxes to fund military operations during an actual genocide?

A company that's been named the world's worst plastic polluter for 6 consecutive years, producing over 130 billion plastic bottles annually, then quietly dropped all its reusability commitments in 2024?

So using AI slop for advertising is just the cherry on top of the shit pie that the coca cola company already is, so if you're not already boycotting the literal embodiment of capitalistic evil, let this be the last straw.

visual flare will influence how people subconsciously vote. if somebody gave a comment gold then they obviously thought it was of greater value, which will influence others to find it more valuable too, resulting in more upvotes which repeats the cycle. that's why comment awards are an excellent catalyst for mimetic desire and in turn social manipulation.

does PieFed having the classic "cover our monthly hosting costs" progress bar OG reddit used to have?

donating used to give you account gold (which didn't allow you to give awards) but still gave you access to extra features (like saved posts I believe)

since PieFed is open source maybe these could be tied to extra hosting capacity and not paywalling features? ie you donate X amount you get to upload Y amount more images/video to share on the instance?

I'd be weary of being able to pay to give others awards as that allows actors with more capital to sway conversations and astroturf a forum that's supposed to be democratic.

#1 goes mostly from claims by the Ukrainian government. It is true that Russia has extracted children from the warzone and it is true that in some cases these children have been sent to adoptive families in Russia, which I heavily condemn, but it’s not a generalized thing and most confirmed extracted children have been returned eventually.

wat

wow - how is this even a debate - she straight up released an SS necklace and there are people genuinely going "hmm idk about this"??

the context is she blocked their car from leaving with a detained migrant so they arrested her for "impeding"

now does that make it justifiable to you? depends - do you think somebody preventing "undesirables" from being kidnapped by the gestapo justifies arrest or not?

"but they're just following orders, if she didn't want to get arrested she shouldn't have gotten in their way of carrying out the law"....
