The current situation with trains is shit because we as a country have allowed it to deteriorate.

Waiting 3 hours for a freight train is one such example. The majority of rail lines are owned by freight companies, so they give their own trails priority over passenger trains. That shit is unacceptable.

Go for it. It was already an old, long dead meme when I posted it here.

This but corps

First, you’re going to need some sort of evidence to back up this claim.

It’s in their interest to exaggerate, and they are under the control of a terrorist organization.

Second, Hamas isn’t who is publishing these numbers.

My understanding is that the only people tracking & publishing the numbers is the Palestinian health ministry, which is under the control of Hamas. Everyone else is just saying “Gaza’s health ministry said X” and such.

Yeah. Definitely place sole blame on hamas instead of the people intentionally bombing civilians.

Dude, I am this 🤏 close to being banned in another community for daring to say that the current event is a genocide of palestinians.

I’m not denying anything, let alone for the sake of convenience. I’m not apathetic. All I’m saying is, is that the current numbers are probably not completely accurate.

I also explicitly said that the current estimate is probably not far off.

I haven’t heard anything from a third party, and no doubt hamas is exagerating to some degree, but whatever the actual numbers are, I wouldn’t think the current estimate of ~20,000 is far off. Israel is intentionally bombing civilians, so the estimated number sounds fairly reasonable to me.

Easier to confirm, is the proportion of women & children. About half the population of Palestine is children, and about half are women. So ~75% being women or children also fits.

Our electoral system is inherently biased against 3rd party candidates due to the spoiler effect of first past the post voting. The only solution is election reform that regulates election finances, a switch to approval/STAR voting, and regulation on political ads.

There are temperature/humidity ranges that make it impossible for any human to be able to cool themselves off through sweating. If we surpass that point and don’t have AC, all humans experiencing that temperature/humidity will die after a period of time.

Nobody is safe when the atmosphere itself is lethal to human life.

The dictation software we have is pretty shitty though. It almost always needs proof-read, or re-dictated several times to get it right. At that point you may as well just send an audio clip.

Until the day that dictation software gets it 100% correct, it’s not going to be worth my time.

For now, the human on the other end will always have an easier time understand an audio clip than a machine, because human minds are more capable of using context and getting past regional accents.

It’d be nice if there were open source printers. Somehow we have a few for 3D printers but not 2D printers, and it is annoying as hell.
