A buddhist vegan goth with questionable humour.
If 21 % can’t read (are Illiterate) then it makes sense that 79 % can read (are literate). So yes, nationwide and in the US are the same thing.
Besides that, I agree. No sources is a no go and no moderated comments is a fucking biohazard.
That’s a very low bar.
I’ll show myfself out.
Would you live in Israel knowing what you know? Would you move there? Would you stay if you had ever ability to leave? How would you feel about someone who did?
If I were a jew I would not want to live their. I don’t want to live in an apartheid state and would not want to live under the extreme right wing government. Nor would I want to live in a place that is so prone to beeing the target of a terrorist attack. So moving there would be our of the question.
As for your other questions: There are Israelis who belive on a 2 state solution and are against the government. There are Israelis who have family who love there they do not want to leave back. People have been living in Israel for 75 years. That’s two generations growing up there. It’s not that easy to just go away. Nobody thinks that US citizens should leave their county, and they got it by committing a genozode and settling land that didn’t belong to them. Just 100 years earlier as Israel. So if you realy hold the stance that people should leave Israel you better apply that same logic to the US.
Yep, that’s hate right there. There is beeing for Palestine and there is spreading hate. You do the later. Literally no better hat that Zionists are doing to Plaestinians.
Just because you are getting downvotes so hard, let me say out loud that I agree with you. Enjoy Harry Potter all you will, but pay money for it and you very directly funded the ideas the author stands for.
Sort of, ay.
The judge said Kurtaj’s skills and desire to commit cyber-crime meant he remained a high risk to the public.
He will remain at a secure hospital for life unless doctors deem him no longer a danger.
The court heard that Kurtaj had been violent while in custody with dozens of reports of injury or property damage.
Doctors deemed Kurtaj unfit to stand trial due to his severe autism so the jury was asked to determine whether or not he committed the alleged acts - not if he did so with criminal intent.
Shhh. Let Linus Finnish.
Yeah, but try saying something slightly to nuanced about the Israel - Palestine situation almost anywhere here and you get nuked.
Masnick gives 20 levels of development. Elon stopped here:
Level Two: “We’re the free speech platform! But no CSAM!”
And that’s about it. Ex-Twitter has copyright infringement, hate speech and doesn’t give a fuck about local laws unless the law actually has teeth (Brasil, anybody?).
What’s cake day?
“Going forward, to build a breakthrough Twitter 2.0 and succeed in an increasingly competitive world, we will need to be extremely hardcore,” Musk wrote in the all-staff email. “This will mean working long hours at high intensity. Only exceptional performance will constitute a passing grade.”
This is so fucking cringy.
He paid 44 billion for twitter. He could pay the legal fees of every American for a year and it would hardly dent his wealth. It’s obscene how much money one person can have.
I play with Mods, unfortunately. It’s the one thing keeping me back atm.
How many predators can take down prey 50 times their size?
Ants and a couple of Insects I guess. Also Bacteria and Viruses.
How many species can thrive in tundra, jungles, plains, forests, mountains and deserts?
Well, obviously also most Bacteria. If we are speaking more sentient live then the answer is: mot of them. Birds, Mammals, Insects. It might take a generation or 10 to get them adopted to their new envirment, but almost every species. Is able to adopt to their evolutoany niche.
How many species can be found on every continent?
Most of them?
How many species figured out how to fly despite never developing wings?
Technology. Yes, that’s a human thing at last, at least at the level we use it.
How many species developed hundreds of distinct methods of communication
Various species have methods of communicating, from bees dancing to each other to whales having distinct regional dialects. Yes, humans have added some complexity to it by introducing technology, but that’s realy what it comes down to. Technology.
How many species have been to the moon?
Technology, once more.
So your point is that humans have learned to use technology, therefor they are badass.
I disagree. We are living in an absolut singularity tight now. Humans have learned to use finate resources (oil for example) to amplify the energy that we have at our hands. A single humans beeing today can use energy that would be equal to thousands of men’s work every day.
Since we are drawing on finate resources there are two ways how this will go: we will learn to exploit other, less finate sources of energy (say, fusion) and the groth path will continue (to the stars, eventually). Or we will run out of energy or ruin the livable world by doing so and will fall back to an earlier level of development. Since most of the resources needed are used up we will not be able clime back up. At this moment we are on the second of those paths.
And in our way in getting here we have started the sixt mass extinction, accidentaly started turning the climate into something less sustainable for humans and polluted every single space on this planet, including areas like the deep ocean that we have never even touched physically.
Humans are not badass, in my opinion. We are fucking cancer.
but humans are evolutionary badasses
How so?
Somewhere there is a hyper capitalist parallel Universum where buddhism is the mainstream western religion and this stance is enforced rigorously.
Well I guess this explains the whole best or random man on the woods thing.

No worries. I heard it a more common problem then one would think.
