Unfortunately this is a very classic far leftist take. Easy to blindly justify a cause you’ve been told to believe in when you simply dehumanize what you’ve been told are the villains
Far too many leftists, like their right wing nut counterparts, are contrarians at heart. This is what happens when political ideology becomes a personality trait; it becomes akin to a religion.
hit the nail on the head with that. I’ve seen so many leftists horseshoe into this perverted self righteousness. and it is even more frustrating when they act like they are directly involved in a conflict they really have nothing to do with.
I’ve seen you comment this before and I’m really sick of it. Get Jews out of your mouth and mind your own business. Idk where your hard on for Jews came from but it’s really weird. Grow up.
I tried checking the link but it didn’t work- anyone know why?
does quad9 block ads as well? I thought it was only trackers
You could check out NTS Radio - so many shows from a very wide variety of genres, and they have an archive of every episode

iPhones have always had a switch that toggles the phone between mute and sound on. This button replaces that switch
This past week I deep cleaned my vacuum instead of studying for an exam
Yeah I’ve used it for years and it’s incredibly useful! I use the citation tool on it a lot and then I bought papership on my iPad to read the articles away from my computer
If it’s all articles and documents I’d suggest zotero
I’ve been considering switching to a Synology NAS - how do you feel the security holds up for that?
If there was lineageos support I might consider it - I only see up to the 8 on the site (and not sure what to expect). it’s frustrating because in a lot of ways this is the perfect phone for me. the 2 years of support is a huge dealbreaker –
Runs on Microsoft cloud…. Sounds like it’ll be super versatile
Interesting article, I really liked it! I appreciated the link you made to keeping junk food in the house to encourage people to delete those apps off the phone. I wonder if the junkie statements at the beginning might be a turnoff to readers who might be on the fence (if that’s an audience you’re trying to appeal to)

I’ve worked in genetics settings, and am considering a career in it – which is partially why I wouldn’t want to send my DNA in. I don’t really see a point in it because you said, its mostly statistical analysis and, buy and large, isn’t very specific.
For lack of better term this privatized genetic screening phenomenon feels like pop science on crack. Spit in a tube, have the cool science company analyze it - find out cool stuff. But when I’m asked about it, I always warn people of the same thing. This is still a relatively new field. Legislation protecting people on the privacy of their genetic code is shaky at best, and the information you get isn’t going to be all that useful.
My parents both come from different ethic minority populations so they wanted to learn more about their roots.
taking these tests for medical reasons, or for adopted people
which in response to that - I’d say that that another case could be for people that do have a curiosity of where they came from given other unique familial backgrounds - which is why I mentioned my family. But I agree it’s hard to draw the line on cost/benefits for each person and where it’s merely novelty versus having legitimate benefit.
for getting a better medical understanding - I really think that it would be better to see a genetic counselor or clinical geneticist. It’s still a growing field in medicine so there aren’t that many - and they typically work in prenatal and pediatric settings. But it’s my hope that as the profession grows, this information will be liaised more by medical professionals - both to guide people in understanding the results of genetic screens and also so that this information is protected under patient privacy laws.
apologies if this was a little scattered. I’m kinda a nerd for genetics and have a lot of thoughts about it - and this was mostly me thinking as I was writing
Reminder that aljazeera is a Quatari state funded media outlet that tends to sensationalize violence against Palestenians and ignore cases where organizations like Hamas perpetrate violence. this is done to support their agenda of eradicating a Jewish state on a land that is home to the Jewish people and is also a place where many Palestenians call home. Aljazeera at it’s heart is an anti-semetic organization, run by a government that does not care for Jews, and therefore their anti-zionist reporting often ventures into anti-semitism.
Violence like this is deplorable and should never happen, when it does, should be sanctioned. I do not think this source is unbiased in their reporting and does not make earnest work towards supporting peaceful outcomes in the region.
