Good to know, thank you! I’ll have to look closer when I visit a forum next.

Reddit does shitty stuff, but at least I’m able to find stuff on there. Why Discord took off as a medium to replace forums is beyond me. It’s not easily searchable, and search engines can’t index it. If people aren’t fastidious about replying to messages they’re responding to, it’s just a nonsense stream of consciousness from dozens of people.
That being said, I hate the formatting of most forums. Reddit and Lemmy’s comment nesting is excellent. It’s very easy to follow conversations.
No, their airlines are not an ancillary product. They are their main product. According to Boeing’s earnings reports, the commercial aircraft segment of the company made up 56% of total revenue in 2018, 42% in 2019, 27% in 2020, 30% in 2021, 38% in 2022, and 43% in 2023. The rest of their revenue is split between the Defense, Space and Security segment, and the Global Services segment.
Prior to 2017, the vast majority of the earnings for the whole company came from the Commercial Airplanes segment. Since then, that segment has been operating at a loss. Since 2022, both Defense and Commercial Airplanes have been operating at a loss.
If you’re curious you can look up Boeing’s 10-k form. Page 56 has the revenue breakdowns.
I know that if I skip a meal, I can get really hungry later. That or I start snacking on crap. So skipping a meal could potentially lead to weight gain because you end up eating more than if you didn’t skip the meal.
Why would they love this? More claims means they have to pay out more. Even if they’re assholes and don’t pay out, they still have to process and fight claims which costs money.

I’m rather partial to Ma~
I’ve played Stellaris for 12 hours straight, only stopping to go to the bathroom, from 7pm to 7am multiple times. I don’t work nights.
It’s a problem.
Here’s how it works
The inverse vaccine takes advantage of a natural process in which the liver marks molecules from broken-down cells with “do not attack” flags to prevent autoimmune reactions to those cells as they die by natural processes. PME researchers coupled an antigen—a molecule being attacked by the immune system—with a molecule resembling a fragment of an aged cell that the liver would recognize as friend rather than foe.
That drives me up the wall. Last summer, I went on a vacation to a rental home that had this issue. After a couple of days of rubbing my hands on the back of the sink just to get them wet, I went to the store and bought a cheap funnel. I used my Swiss Army knife to cut off the base of the funnel, and I shoved it onto the sink. Problem solved!
If the water pressure was higher (or if the aerator was less restricted) it probably wouldn’t have been an issue, given the angle of the faucet. It’s still ridiculous that shit like this happens.
RedReader is a 3rd party Reddit app that has an exemption from the API bullshit because it has accessibility features that Reddit can’t be bothered to implement themselves.
Firing a Mach 4 missile with 1,300 lbs of warhead at civilians is, in fact, unrestrained bloodlust. They ceased fire because it would be wasteful to fire again.
That’s like saying, “The cop didn’t dump a second magazine into the man who didn’t respond to the cop’s commands. He showed restraint! The guy is still breathing, he’s just immobilized!”
You’re not trying to avoid civilian casualties if you fire on civilians.
DNA
assume a new identity?
I don’t think a new identity will be much help with your genetic information floating around…
Who needs “AI” when the simple algorithm they already use works perfectly well?
while 1==1:
deny_coverage = True
Logseq has tags. Logseq does store data in markdown files. There’s one file for each page.
I haven’t tried Obsidian, but I use Logseq all the time. What do you think is holding Logseq back? I’m just curious.
I know for me the mobile app lacks some polish and it lacks plugins, which is annoying.
When cleaning your glasses, wipe from the temples towards the nose. That way you’re not spreading any nose grease you missed across your lenses.
On Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, West said it’s “a criminal invasion, provoked by the expansion of NATO”
Fuck off, it’s provoked entirely by Putin being a shithead. The invasion proves the worth of NATO. Coincidentally , NATO is something West wants to get rid of.
His other positions are fine, but I’d prefer a president who’s not gargling Putin’s balls.
The last outbreak was not contained. Prior to 2022, there was no sustained transmission outside of central Africa. The 2022 outbreak saw significant transmission all over the world. There were 30,000 confirmed cases and 42 deaths in the US alone.
Just because something isn’t extremely contagious right now doesn’t mean it can’t become a pandemic. A virus
canwill mutate, it can go unnoticed, etc. As it stands, mpox can be transmitted by respiratory droplets.Smallpox was a related virus. It too was transmissible through close contact with other people. It killed 300 million people in the 20th century. While vaccination is likely going to prevent mpox from becoming anywhere close to that deadly, I’d rather not play with fire. Don’t ignore a nasty virus.
