But you need to add one more stat, for paywalled or not, including if they count how many articles you’ve read before they put up the ‘must subscribe’ paywall.
Kyiv’s allies “fear” Russia’s loss in the war against Ukraine because it would involve “unpredictable geopolitics,” according to Zelensky.
Is “unpredictable geopolitics” a euphemism for ‘nuclear war’?

I got nothin’.
Never said there wasn’t.
Never said that you said.
Just pointing out that it’s not just solely the politics that prevents the change from happening (though that’s a part of it).
There’s a lot of inertia to overcome. It’s not just those with interests protecting those interests.
We already have the technology to replace all fossil fuel energy production and almost all types of fossil fuel burning transport.
Does your above response include this point …
that works as efficiently as oil does
–
Only thing we’re missing is for greedy politicians to get out of the pockets of the fossil fuel industries so that the transition can happen in earnest.
Not saying that you’re wrong at all, but there’s also the issue of completely replacing our infrastructure to support the new technologies, and the costs involved in doing that.
Not an easy task, though a worthy one.
Mr. Biden’s willingness to grant a mutual defense treaty and other benefits to Prince Mohammed is a sharp departure from his vow during the 2020 presidential campaign to ensure the country remains a “pariah” because of human rights violations.
We compromise our morals/ethics again and again in the name of obtaining oil.
We really should come up with a different fuel source for our nation, that works as efficiently as oil does, and leave that region to solve its own political problems.
You said your lid and seat are totally independent - suggesting you can leave the seat up but close the lid.
I believe that’s an interpretation mistake on your part (the italicized part).
I was responding in disagreement to your comment about how both of them have to both be up together, or both down together, to actually use the toilet.
A reminder of what I was responding to…
So she asks me to always make sure to put the seat down for her,
Seat is down if the
nlid is down.Our lid is seperate from the seat. One can be
donedown while the other one is still up.I wasn’t commenting on what order they stack on top of each other.
I feel like I’m being trolled myself tbh.
For the record, not trolling at all, it’s not what I do.
So lets just shake our heads
bin unison and carry on.And yes, this is definitely not a subject we should be continuing to talk about. Have a good day.
91·4 months agoand the kernel folks just went “it is the kernel, everything is critical”
tl;dr: this is pretty much an elaborate “go fuck yourself” towards shady ‘security’ companies.
Apologies for my ignorance, but could you elaborate?
I’m sincerely not seeing the connection between saying everything is critical as a go fuck yourself towards those companies.
Is it a ‘death by quantity’ thing?
So you can have the lid down while seat is up? Then what you said before makes much more sense. Though not sure what purpose this feature brings. Or how that would even lool like, never seen anything like that.
Are you trying to be purposely obtuse, or intellectually dishonest?
Or are you trying to let me know I have a typo somewhere in one of my earlier comments, without actually explicitly saying so?
Or do you have a magic toilet where urine can pass through the lid when its down?
Seat is down if thenlid is down.
Our lid is seperate from the seat. One can be
donedown while the other one is still up.
You don’t want that E. Coli on your toothbrush.
Actually our bathroom sink is outside of the bathroom toilet, with a door seperating them. 🤷
enjoy brushing your teeth later.

I’ve had this happen to me. I suspect it’s one sad MRA type with a pile of accounts bringing the downvotes.
If true, I’d feel really sad for that person, in a go outside and touch grass sort of way.
Honestly, at this point I expect the large amount of downvotes for anything I post. I’ve had that happen to a post where I just said “Thanks” and nothing else. Its sad, and I’d wish the Lemmy admins would catch that sort of thing more often (understanding that they are volunteers, but still), as it doesn’t make my experience here on Lemmy any better than when I was on Reddit.
Lid down so the flush spray is mostly contained is enough reason, no?
We never have that problem in our household. 🤷
We have a toilet that flushes in the front to the back in a jet, there’s never any splash.
Where the falling in problem tends to reoccur, if not prevented.
Maybe I’m not understanding you but lid down is a foolproof way to not fall in from my perspective.
My wife always forgets when she gets up in the middle of the night, and falls in, or sits on the lid and has to get up and put the lit up and seat down herself.
So she asks me to always make sure to put the seat down for her, something that I’m happy to do, as a happy wife is a happy life.
Because subconsciously they want to fuck their mom of course.
That’s a very Oedipus Rex statement.
Toilet seat belongs down - and the lid with it! It’s not only logical, but also just.
The thing is, at least in our household, the lid has to stay up.
I actually thought as you do, as that would be a perfect compromise, both parties would have to work to use the toilet.
But from what I’m told, is the late night half asleep moments where you forget to put the seat down, and you fall down into the toilet, that is being prevented by making sure the seats always down and the lid is always up.
It’s a low hanging fruit way of maritial bliss, so I go with it.
“old lady” absolutely is slang for wife.
I know it exists, but I’ve never used it.
Also, I was just being more humorous, than literal, hence the toilet seat comment.
Being serious for a moment, IMO, it sends one hell of a negative signal to your significant other, to your dissatisfaction of them, which I’ve never felt for my own wife.
Edit: …
And for those of you who may disagree with me, ask yourself this. Is your wife actually okay with you using that slang, or do they just act like they’re okay, but inside it bothers them? Do they see it as a term of endearment, or as a reminder of reality?
Reminding your wife that she’s old, even playfully, may not be something she wants to hear.
And generally speaking, women seem to care more about aging than men do. That’s why when someone asks you how old your wife is, when she is in earshot, you always say 18, or at the very least 21! 😜
My only disappontment is with those humans (and humans who use ““humans””) who side with AI model using corporations that steal other people’s content to train said models for profit, over regular everyday people.
