Everyone, please reach out to your local anti-trust government organization to ensure they are aware of this issue. They cannot do anything about something that they are unaware of. It's easy to forget that the internet is a bubble and not everyone is clued into it's issues.

And twitter had moderation when these organizations decided to use it.

Unless Google are planning to completely lock the browser down to prevent user scripting and all extensions

Ding ding ding!

Starlink satellites make up the majority of satellites orbiting Earth

This is so wild to me.

If only they'd drop WEI

Not launching in the EU tells you everything you need to know about their privacy policies.

I see a mixture, but the conversion is usually listed on the same tag.

The Canadian cup is 227mL, while the US cup is 236mL, and the metric cup is 250mL. So good fucking luck figuring out which one your recipe uses. Luckily, for most cooking it doesn't really matter to be off by 9-23mL.

Wow, this is a rabbit hole and a half. I really can't agree with you though that all those sources are from the Falun Gong, as many of them talk about this same practice being performed on Uyghurs. Also many of those sources are from doctors who performed the harvests, not from Falun Gong members talking about how it's happening. A lot of the evidence is circumstantial, pointing to the fact that the Chinese transplant industry boomed in the early 2000s with no real explanation of where all these organs came from. There are no corresponding increases in voluntary donations, and the speed at which these organs are delivered suggests a sort of on demand execution and harvest system.

It's important to note, the Falun Gong being a cult really doesn't have any bearing on whether or not China is executing political dissidents for organs to fuel their massive transplant industry. Both "the Falun Gong is a crazy cult" and "China is executing prisoners and selling their organs" can be true.

They must have made some sort of effort to hide the vehicle, or park it somewhere it wouldn't be questioned for some time. If the goal is to get away from people, you don't want your vehicle to cause someone to come looking for you.

Sounds like taxation without representation to me.

Because they're hopeful they can save the site through activism. What they forget is that they are not protesting a government, they are trying to stop a corporate entity from fulfilling it's legal obligations to make money for it's investors.

Good thing those frozen ones come with the required cooking temperature on the package.

I use DDG and think it does a great job, at least as good as google these days. There are certainly times that it falls short when compared with other search engines, but at that point I just use bangs and that effectively solves any problems I have had with it.

Hell, if you're scanning the trash for cans to separate out and recycle, why not just scan all the rest of the trash and figure out whatever information you can from there. You could realistically scan all the trash and log every identifiable piece while only removing cans and logging all the data. Don't know how much valuable information one could pull from this data that isn't already available through sales data, but it's an interesting concept to mull over at least.

Damn, knew I should have taken the 10 seconds this would have required to google. Thanks for the info!

There is no paywall here though? I had no issue reading the article at least...

Exactly. Drives me a little crazy seeing all these posts and comments about how the Fediverse has poor privacy. It's a public forum people, you should be considering everything you say here to be freely accessible information. At no point did anyone promise that your posts and comments would not be available to someone outside the service.

I could very well be am wrong here, but I believe that IRC doesn't have to solve this problem. IRC functions on a server/client model so someone sets up an IRC server and people connect to it and chat with one another. Every user is just connecting to a single server, rather than having users talking with one another who are not using the same provider. So long as you have a good connection with an IRC server, you will send and receive messages quickly and do not have to worry about messages hopping from one server to another over connections of unknown quality in order to reach their destination.

I was using Tree Style Tabs until I read your comment and checked out sideberry. Wow, this is way better in basically every way. Love the bookmarks integration.
