Budgie might be easier for someone who isn’t a technical user.

I agree. But, maybe, at some point, they settle on Kurds having a country that’s got zero overlap with Turkish land and in a place not strategically important to Turkey.

Edit: And we may see Azerbaijan enter the war and gain Azeri territory at the same time and I think Turkey would be very favorable to that end. So maybe they take a plus and a minus to even things out?

Cubans are exempt from most of the deportation laws.

If people want to leave Cuba, the Cuban government ought to let them go. This should be a national policy.

What are they going to do with oil? Does Cuba have any working refineries? Ñico López is down due to a fire the other day. Hermanos Díaz refinery is entirely offline, retooling for capacity to refine heavier oil. It won’t be online again for months. The only other refinery I know is only does coking to produce non-fuel chemicals and lighter grade oil that’s fed back into Ñico López.

It depends how it is done. Instead of denials, it could be used to “approve without review” all the easy cases and then forward to a human all the rest. This would speed up approval for lots of situations and focus human effort on more difficult cases.

If you want to get technical, all the games are bad because they extract vast amount of resources from people who live in the host city and leave behind unusable infrastructure. Also, the corruption. So much corruption.

I’m going to bet the vast majority of cases involve an adult predator.

Aside from direct vandalism or persuasion, is there something I can do to combat the Ring cameras on nearly every door in my neighborhood?

Your link reads just like every western European country with failing demographics … and it isn’t working. I did hear on NPR News the other day that China is implementing a new tax on contraceptives. That’s a new idea. Something that would be so unpopular, it could only happen in a non-democratic country. Maybe that’ll help, but my prediction is that it’ll just increase (or slow the decrease of) the population of ethnic and religious minorities within China, something the one-party government may not like. I do not see any good solutions within reach for China. Demographic issues are cultural issues and you cannot change a culture quickly. Demographic issues are rarely economic issues (though economics gets the blame). Are there any subcultures within China known for large families? Here in the US, we have Amish, Mennonites, Muslims, Orthodox Jews, Traditional Catholics, and Quiverfull Evangelicals who all tend to have large families. Myself, I have 11, and have just learned my wife is pregnant with twelve.

I have a customer (I own my own business) who is a Chinese immigrant to the US and I was visiting his house here in the US. We were talking and he learned that I had 11 children. He immediately called his daughter, who is a doctor still living in China, and gave her a stern talking to about how this “poor” man here in the US can give his parents 11 grandchildren and she could not even give them just one. It was a little awkward to listen to, as they went back and forth between English and Manderin. What they feel is not unusual among the Chinese. China’s one child policy defined Chinese culture. And now young men and women just do not have the example or the confidence to start a family. They also have witnessed a generation of people praised for work and professional success that comes at the expense of producing and raising many children. The one-party state does not have the tools to dramatically change this trend. If a reverse happens, it’ll happen over the period of a century, not years or decades.

It was ISIS and Nigeria asked him to do it.

U.S. military’s Africa Command confirmed it had conducted a strike that killed multiple militants at the request of Nigerian authorities.

We already have military bases in Greenland and I’m sure their government would be willing to let us do just about anything reasonable for us to do. The situation is adequate for defense and economic opportunities. This is about ego. I don’t want Greenland to be part of the US. I want them to do their thing and continue to be a great neighbor.

Did he remove his microphone? That’s the first thing I do with every new computer, physically remove the microphone. Microphones pick up much more data than cameras.

the code required to move the taskbar to the top or sides isn’t actually in Windows 11, because Microsoft created the new taskbar from the ground up

Funny, I run a script on my work computer that let’s me move it. I like it on the top.

With how much time you spend online, it cannot be far from the truth.

If you did any amount of research on me, you would see I’ve got 11 kids of my own and have enough going on that I cannot spam the internet all day long. You really should log out and work on meeting a girl, get some sunlight, and step outside your bubble. You are a fun adversary but I’m starting to worry about you.

Europe and East Asia have been looking for policies to improve demographics. Nobody has a workable plan.

That’s one of your better photos. Keep it up, someday you’ll find a girl.

The capital you rely on in your argument has a asymptote, and as China approaches this line, growth will happen at a diminishing rate. How much technical progress can they squeeze out of the tube? Is it enough to deal with demographic collapse? Probably not.
