That’s what makes the design crappy, they had to put a plastic bottle in the sink as a workaround

Not exactly a good comparison since the trial of Jesus is not well documented. There are many rumors and second-hand accounts but no original documents.

The choice of profession is not made completely independently. You see what other people are doing - friends, relatives, random people in the street (including all other taxi drivers you’ve ever met). And you choose a place for yourself guided by these preexisting ideas about where you could best fit in.

Humans tend to repeat the patterns of behavior they see other people do.

Depending on the client, accidentally clicking downvote can be pretty easy. More specifically Voyager is guilty of this.

They got it way in advance in 2023 and made sure to ban it preemptively

Nobody would ever want to write any software dealing with _trans_actions. Just ban it.

Welcome!

For a while now Linux has been better at most personal computing things except gaming. And for server uses an even longer time.

There are some specific hardware/software situations where you’ll need Windows but it’s unlikely to happen at home. Unless you have very peculiar hobbies.

After reading the article it sounds much less oniony. He was hired to make a new arrangement of the existing anthem, not compose a new one.

I think it’s a design thing. It’s possible to do with just a hut, but the architect thought it would look better if the entire floor was level.

As someone not using Threads this is a big surprise. I mean I’m surprised it didn’t already have ads.

Fuck I hope so. Humans should be replaced at everything by AI.

Then we’ll be able to discuss what even makes a human. All of us dying and a couple of billionaires left to live alone is a desirable goal /s

The only issue I see with your plan is keeping the Chinese writing system. Alphabets are superior, even if you write Chinese with them.

Otherwise as long as my ideas about how the world should function get put into practice, I don’t care who does it. By chance of history US was the one who brought quite a few good ideas into the world, mostly in the second half of the 20th century. But there’s nothing fundamentally American about having good ideas.

Multiple incompatible flawed competing standards are essential for a success of any technology

Religion is useful for one thing and one thing only - as a barrier to depression. Having a predefined higher purpose neutralizes the existential dread, it helps you function in the face of a meaningless life.

Unfortunately it’s all false. Once you understand the the falsehood it doesn’t help any more. Which is why so many religious people cling to their religion. Giving up on whatever belief kept them alive equals suicide, and they want to keep on living.

This is exactly why they celebrate it as well. The pointless sacrifice at the other end of the world made them realize they weren’t British any more. It’s usually considered as a beginning of separate Australian and NZ national identity (political independence took some decades more)
