  • Of course they will, and at least 90% of those will stop moderating within a week bcause they have no idea what it entails and just like the sound of having power.

    Another 9.99% will push personal agendas, post ads, malware, etc. or a dozen other things that will kill the sub.

    In the end they'll probably get decent moderatos for less than a tenth of those they seek.

  • To be fair, depending on the european country the spectrum is quite broad.

    For example Norway has both literal marxists and full on "gay people should be put in camps" christian conservative nutjobs in parliment.

  • Of course he didn't respond to the 32bit removal, he made his stance pretty clear over a decade ago. The author even said he knew what the answer would be, because how could you be a kernel maintainer without knowing about that email.

  • Don't even have to go that far back: Italy is massively corrupt with organized crime running parts of the country and with a literal facsist representing them in the EU Parliment(Mussolinis granddaugher in fact). This current prime minister that is being referred to in the post is a self-proclaimed "national conservative".

    And the fact that they kept letting Berlusconi run things is all the proof you need of how corrupt the entire country is(his "controversies" part on wikipedia is so large that it has its own page with 160 citations, he is also connected to the party of the person mentioned above).

    But it has some amazing tourist locations and food, so people gloss over that as well.

  • When you hear jokes about Italians getting angry at non-traditional pizzas, in reality it's about certain Americans and chili.

    They'll literally beat eachother up if there's beans, no beans, this spice, not that spice, etc. While Italians don't give a fuck about peoples pizza, as long as they don't try to call it authentic Italian when it's not.

  • As always when it comes to conservatives, you can trace their behaviour back to projection and how they think everyone else is just like themselves.

    They put personal faith into the person they support, and see any criticism of that person as a personal attack. And they assume everyone else does as well, so they honestly think talking negatively about Hunter Biden is a personal blow to democratic voters.

    It's honestly delusional.

  • I find it amazing how no politicians really call out republican use of "urban" when we all know they mean "black".

    And they still think it's subtle and clever, and that they "get away with it"... They're so fucking dumb.

  • That's fair.

    I was mostly venting my frustration over those silly posts anway. Since as long as humans have physical bodies, we will at times need individual transportation. And they sometimes act like literally everything in life can be done through public transport and excpeting people to bring home a couch on the bus.

  • Deleting it goes against the premise of "No stupid questions". Hiding information in a place literally made to give out information without judging the question, is literally the opposite of the intent.


    Many questions posted here are easily answer through wikipedia, and people might ask them in a place like this for a multitude of reasons. One of them being that they avoid looking it up directly as a way to limit themselves getting triggered from the pictures or text that might be there, and just want a more summarized answer to their question.

  • One important thing to note is that for many it hurts a lot less than you'd think, basically feeling like a light scratch.

    Wikipedia has more detailed information and sources:

    Those who engage in self-harm face the contradictory reality of harming themselves while at the same time obtaining relief from this act. It may even be hard for some to actually initiate cutting, but they often do because they know the relief that will follow. For some self-harmers this relief is primarily psychological while for others this feeling of relief comes from the beta endorphins released in the brain.

    Endorphins are endogenous opioids that are released in response to physical injury, acting as natural painkillers and inducing pleasant feelings, and in response to self-harm would act to reduce tension and emotional distress. Many self-harmers report feeling very little to no pain while self-harming and, for some, deliberate self-harm may become a means of seeking pleasure.

  • While that website is known for terrible writing and fact checking, this isn't one of those times.

    (To clarify the accusation: They once wrote an article complainig about Chun-Li not being included in the latest Mortal Kombat release. They ended up updating the article to clarify that they were not being ironic or making a joke. And that's just the tip of the iceberg. )

  • ... the persistence of the strange disease for up to 7 days. Symptoms such as high temperatures, broken bones, vomiting, dizziness, and headaches have left the community grappling with uncertainty and fear.

    I'm going to hope the broken bones was a side-effect from the dizziness and falls. If not, that disease sounds scary.

  • The replies annoy me. It’s just the same thing all over again— everything I said seems to have went right over most peoples’ heads.

    Not at all.

    They just don't like being told they're wrong and will attack you instead of learning something.

  • Going to the about window to check for updates is a decades old thing among thousands of different software(it's the same in Edge, Chrome, Opera(old and new), etc)

    Clicking on the "Add-ons and Themes" literally takes you straight to the extension tab(extensions are add-ons).

  • Nope.

    It's insane to me how the fuckcars movement went from "we should have walkable cities and more public transport" to "ban all cars".

    The stupidity of not realizing that farmers, plumbers, electricians, etc. need cars to keep modern society working is baffling to me. Not to mention that they fully expect people to go grocery shopping every single day, or it never crosses their mind because they have no idea what it takes to feed a large family.
