GNOME 3 on Debian Jessie works decently well with high-DPI screens - I'm using it now on the 3K 2015 version of the XPS 13. Some controls won't scale up (Java Swing is particularly miniscule), otherwise it just works compared to m

/b/ also has some utility as a containment board - it's nowhere near perfect at keeping shitposters away from other boards, but it is a decent magnet for those that want to go crazy.

These statistics do not show attempt rate. It does show a gendered difference of poisoning (19% male vs 37% female) and hanging (55% male vs 44% female). While I don't have a link, it is often reported that women are more likely to us

Overcrowding is still a problem with California's prisons [0], to the point where inmates are getting dumped into smaller communities through realignment under AB 109 [1]. Hopefully the perps involved will get plenty of hotbunking time
