and it requires line of sight which means it is hard to scale, will have issues with adverse climate and probably will need frequent realigments

they still could play nice and show some good will. they have been behaving awful recently

he clearly mispoke. He meant “poor kids”

there is a very extreme reactionary version of catholicism in the US (like Vance). I dont know much about this new guy but at least he doesnt seem in that track.

I think he realized his papacy was not going to be enough to make a tangible change so he stacked the deck in his favour by creating a lot of new cardinals. This way it was most likely someone like him would succeed him.

theoretically the whole curia should obey the pope, but in reality it is a very large appartus that is very hard to steer, I doubt we’ll see meaningful changes. I remember the first years of Francis reign, there was a lot of shift and scandals but also a lot of pushback. Eventually things became quieter and back to ‘business as usual’. The same happened with Benedict, it was clear he quit due to his inability to steer the institution.

I think that is the reason Francis made so many cardinals.

he is living in dementia. he literally mentioned the plot of escape from alcatraz. the movie had just recently aired in Florida.

they are mixing gigabits with gigabytes so that is confusing. but even then, the math is still wrong for the usb 2 speeds.

I think that if that was feasible a successful project would exist already to develop it. it is not like people does not want it to exist. sure, there are tons of projects making variations of existing browsers but none of them do much besides minor tweaks.

From the top of my head Servo is the closest one and it has a big head start since mozilla developed originally. and that is just an engine, not a full browser.

I think you underestimate the costs of development.

while they have made a lot of dumb decisions, they are also in an almost impossible situation. every time they try to diversify their income they get hammered hard by the community.

three things that seem to be untouchable In Spain:

• The monarchy
• Football
• Bullfighting.

they would need to do more than that, since he is dead.

as a person raised in what was a very conservative catholic household in latin america, I feel like there is a new wave of very reactionary catholicism coming from the US that makes the Opus Dei or Legionaireslook like reasonable people.

what is being argued about here is forbidding protests by non citizens no matter their political stance. it has nothing to do with the tolerance paradox

“we should adopt far right laws before the far right has the chance to do so”

I’m so tired of the EPP. Also I wish these outlets where better at reporting anything related to the EU. do know there are parties like there are parties in the US? all this shit comes from the EPP.

There should be laws against poorly maintained office ACs.

there are regulation about this. in decent offices they regularly check things like air flow, speed, quality of the air, temperature , etc

enforcing them is a different story

even russians still talk about the KGB when refer to any kind of Russian intelligence agency.
