That's just stupid, the operator could just as well connect you to the people taking car of non-emergency situations. They are still the police and one would expect them to at least try to help

I can't comment on the bugs (I'm actually not sure that I've experienced any), but those connected etc. Messages really are very annoying, partly because they feel like forever

The unfairness of a terminally ill person that's not eligible for a regular heart transplant receiving an experimental treatment that might just as well kill him, but in the long run might save many more? Or is it the unfairness of nev

"Awesome X" is often used as a stand-in for "curated list of useful resources for X". Like Awesome Rust, Awesome ruby and so on.

I'd say it depends. "Silence" on a bus/train? No thank you, I prefer a podcast or music. In a shared office? I'd rather have some music. Going for a walk, reading, sports? Give me silence over music/podcasts

I don't think that people "started having a deep hatred of them overnight", but it has a lot to do with not getting the point of NFT. I certainly don't get why/how it is a good idea, same with lots of different bloc

This only holds if hospitalization is the only thing to be concerned about and in my opinion is just as misleading as focusing solely on death rate. I am much more concerned about long term effects of an infection, even if asymptomatic (whi

Getting rid of coal is a really important goal and would be much easier to achieve if "we" reduce our energy consumption. One way to achieve that is stop wasting energy with resistive heating

This being about government subsidizing energy actually makes a lot of sense, I would not have gotten to this interpretation from the comment itself

Isn't it in the governments interest to have stable and affordable electricity for the population? Comparing crypto mining to useless websites is dishonest at best, it seems intentionally misleading

This is often repeated, but it always ignores that there are state-level actors (often called a "state") propping up currencies, often supported by central banks. In this regard Bitcoin is definitely not "like any other curre

Well put! The singular focus on death rate in this kind of discussions feels narrowminded, bordering on ignorance, as the severity of symptoms and brutal long term effects for many are just as awful

I couldn't find a video of the display in use, so here it goes (for the 13.3" version) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oBfWkxOfUfQ seems a little slow and the screen refreshes sometimes excessive, but much better

I don't want to discount that as a possibility, it is much more a matter of fact. A lot has to do with wealthier people being able to afford better education and generally being able to invest more time in the offsprings chances on the

Sure, but long, straight skis are harder to control, causing more accidents for less skilled riders. Many people skiing reasonably well today would have a really hard time using classic material from the 80s-90s
