  • Right, it's a matter of physics and actual danger mitigation. Light is absorbed by black colored clothing, making an effective camouflage in the dark. If you camouflage yourself in the dark and walk in the road, you increase your chances that drivers won't see you before it's too late.

    No sane parent would teach their child that it's the car drivers' responsibility to not hit them, placing all burden for their safety on drivers. Instead, we teach them ways to be careful to reduce the danger. Safety precautions are not based on "how it should be" ideals. They are based on practical ways to reduce dangers.

  • Every so often, it's important for our community to pause, heal, and reflect together on what's truly important and why we're all here.

  • They are doing important work with this journalism, but they really shouldn't use the terms "a woman," "the woman," or "this woman" when they are talking about someone "in her early teens" - that's a kid. They could at least say A Female Minor or something that doesn't generally mean an adult. I guess she was a woman later while providing this testimony, but the wording "the woman bit down" could be improved to clarify she was A Minor at the time. People need to know.

  • Well on average, people are dumb, and the average goober probably doesn't know how to properly manage the use of a PHEV to get good mileage. It's a learning process, and the cars should come with instructions about it taped to the dashboard so that goobers will notice.

    Basically you need a charger at home, and you use the EV mode for city driving, and the gas engine for highway trips. You can get more complicated to max your efficiency but the basics are simple enough for the average goober to learn. When I got one, the dealer knew a lot less about the vehicle than I did. They didn't tell me how to do anything.

  • Is this WD MyBook 6tb drive still good?

    Jump

  • 59 hours of usage with 140 reallocated sectors and a failing read error rate - my guess would be the drive has been dropped or damaged somehow, with such low hours of usage and a failing error rate. This would be an RMA if under warranty. Don't trust it for anything important.

    Typically I would expect a mechanical WD drive to last for 5 full years of usage - about 44000 hours of run time or more. I've had several reach that age with zero or very few errors.

  • We got along just fine before DHS ever existed so we don't need them anyway.

  • If you ditched your car, could you afford to leave the suburbs for a great urban neighborhood?

    Jump

  • Nope I would have to triple or quadruple my costs for housing to move to an urban environment. Also then I would be surrounded by other people in close proximity a lot of the time. Currently I pay less than 1k/mo for mortgage, and there's only about 3 or less people per acre of land surrounding me. Costs for 1 car amount to roughly $800/mo including payment, insurance, and fuel.

  • Epstein details scrubbed from Mandelson’s Wikipedia page by shady paid editor— As the then-ambassador came under fire, an anonymous user tried to downplay his history of support for Jeffrey Epstein

  • That's right, I forgot about that. It was 23.1 GB compressed for the "enwiki - pages-articles-multistream" version that includes pictures.

    Uncompressed and set up with XOWA viewer it's about 70 GB

  • Not only did she have a stupid "burn book" but she also brought out printed pages showing the search history of Congress members who were allowed to view the secret files, and this was photographed. They monitored, logged, and tagged the searches and documents members of Congress accessed, and she was dumb enough to hold evidence of it in front of press photographers. Now there's going to be a congressional inquiry into that too.

  • She's probably a big part of the Epstein cover up. She was there in Florida in 2011 as attorney general of the state, after Epstein's first conviction, and while his activities were still ongoing but did nothing about it.

  • No, the data itself is inherently valuable even when it's a little bit dated. We don't need daily updates to learn about historical events, methods of irrigation, 20th century election results, mineral composition of transistors and diodes, and millions of other well-documented topics. It's an incredible resource of collected knowledge with immense inherent value.

  • It's a good thing that lots of people have full backups of wikipedia.I saved a copy for myself at the start of 2025. It took about 23GB of space if I'm remembering right. Maybe I'll burn a blu-ray copy for long term storage

  • The WHOLE system? Do you promise?

    Jump

  • It is not. The pedoligarchs just want us to think that we need them. But the reality is it is them who needs US.

    Pedoligarchs don't run the power lines, build construction projects, or work the farms that grow our food. They aren't even the managers who oversee all of that. They are the top fraction of a percent whose sole purpose is to siphon money and power from the rest of us on the bottom of the pile.

    Putting every one of them in the dirt would only make society less corrupt, so it's a win-win situation for the majority of the world population.

  • Epstein files reveal deeper ties to scientists than previously known

    Jump

  • I don't think that's what it's about. I read some crazy stuff from the partial files that suggests Epstein was running eugenics experiments at zorro ranch. Underground secret laboratory human breeding experiments.

    If any of that is real, he probably wanted science contacts to work on his sick experiments
