Of special note is how her published article cites The Onion as a totally legitimate source for why the Bible and all ancient Greek history is fake: https://ajba.um.edu.my/index.php/JAT/article/download/11954/7915 (PDF download)

It “should” be:

Honestly ðis þread makes me sad. Can’t a fella be a li’l quirky in peace?

You can make the þ sound by itself without using your voice. It just sounds like air coming out of a tire. You can’t make the ð sound without also making a vowel sound.

Ðough historically the þorn was often used for boþ as well, and it’s definitely tricky for modern Eŋlish speakers to distiŋuish.

Here’s the prior guidelines. You generally had to show your membership in an art organization and that you made an income selling art. Then they just randomly picked names of those people.

GitHub is kind of a cloud service, but it isn’t a server host. Cloud development is just more…abstracted than traditional web development. Instead of controlling a computer and choosing how to store files and managing ports and firewalls and making backups and serving requests and redirecting to closer servers and making sure you have enough computing power but not too much computing power and all that stuff, you instead just give Amazon/Microsoft/Google your code and data and pay them to do all that for you.

Like, before the invention of agriculture?

In the US, people making minimum wage pay $0 in income tax in almost all states.

I’ve seen Russia supporters say this is fake. Here is an official party confirmation, defending it by saying the mother specifically asked for a meat grinder lol

AG Ellison didn’t just hire a misinformation expert, he hired a misinformation expert.

Science has shown that even just building high-end housing will lower housing prices across the board: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0094119022001048?via=ihub

They take the money from the rich people, lowering prices in the middle class, lowering prices for the lower class.

Literally just building more houses does work though.

I mean, we do that. Just say it’s good to censor bad things. There’s nothing wrong with that, so don’t lie about what you’re doing.

I think it’s more like this: Say maintenance of a grid costs $1 million/year, power generation costs another $1 million/year and people use 10 million kWh/yr at 20¢ per. Everything is balanced. Then half the people cut their usage in half. Grid maintenance still costs $1 million/year, generation dropped to $750,000, but revenue dropped to $1.5 million. They have to raise the price 16% to go back to paying for maintenance. You’re still saving money if you dropped your usage more than 16%, but those that didn’t pay the difference.

Since you generally have to be fairly well-off to afford the massive upfront labor costs involved with solar, its adoption has disproportionately raised the living expenses of the lower class.

The alternative is a base services charge, where everyone pays a flat percentage of the grid maintenance costs and then his or her usage is on top of that. No idea why it’s taking this long for PG&E to adopt that model, but adding charges for solar is a big improvement in equity.

I thought it’s widely-agreed that gender dysphoria is a mental illness. The debate lies in how to treat it—try to realign the body with the mind or the mind with the body.

What power grids receive public funds for upgrades? Even my public grid on the mainland is funded entirely by my municipality and state.

It was privatized under Trump after all the rolling blackouts the public grid kept having. So far it has actually rather improved in quality somehow.

Some aviation experts say the fatalities could have been minimized had the plane not collided with the concrete wall.

It was actually a fake fake call center. The fake cops just “raided” an apartment and stole all their stuff.
