polar bears. it’s the only animal that likes to eat people. daily life is just too safe and dull.

It is useful to have lots of stupid laws. It makes people feel powerless and frustrated. It means the police can always find excuses to persecute you.
The technicalities of the individual laws are not important. It’s the psychological effect of the whole body of laws on a people.
Yes you couldn’t change something so widely used. Look what happened with python 3.
Fortunately there’s already a tradition among Git users of building a UI on top of the git UI. My project is just a slightly better version of those. It lays a simple sensible interface on top of the chaotic Git interface.
Git is a great invention but it has a few design flaws. There are too many ways to confuse it or break it, using commands that look correct, or just forgetting something. I ended up writing simple wrapper script codebase to fix it. Since then no problems.
Just use schwalbe marathon. They are puncture proof and last forever. I once got home and picked a shard of glass as king as my fingernail out of one.
Most people haven’t. We all have a filter bubble.
Here is a first draft, my attempt to provide the missing context. Please leave comments on anything bad or missing you notice. https://lemmy.ml/post/4848742
Background? Link?
That all sounds like brigading emotional nonsense. In fact, there were strong reasons for Russia to invade. It is probably true that Russia was manipulated into invading, it had no choice because of strategic decisions made by Ukraine. It’s a shame none of the people you talked to were able to argue the issues sensibly.
Some of the other comments have decent explanations.

Oh like a security for further borrowing? Could be.
Any update on this?
I couldn’t find any comment from the devs. Was there one?
There is an extra problem, not mentioned here. When there are subs with the same name, it is actually impossible to know of choose which sub I am posting to. Like here.
How do you mean “a powerful tool”? Tool for what?
The argument is mostly valid. But the real point is that capital gains tax needs to change. That would solve the stated problem, without reducing home ownership.
As a result, a majority of the population is literally invested in seeing the value of homes always go up.
This is actually not true. In general, ome owners do not benefit from global house price increases.
This seems like the right approach. You can get different answers depending on which measure you use
You could compare
1.Willful killings in total
willful killings per year
willful killings during the 1920s-40s
willful killings during Churchill’s regime versus Hitler’s regime.
I guess the UK will have higher numbers by every measure except 1. The figures should be easy to find.
it’s in the article. diverting around weather patterns where an AI said contrails were likely to form.
it’s hard to judge how real the result is. it’s early days.
The lemmy devs and users are rigidly against hate speech / free speech. they are afraid it will push away many users who are more sensitive, and ruin the quality of discussion. they don’t tolerate free speech instances.
but who knows, they might be right.
This is exactly what happens. The highest quality land in a country is used for tillage. The less productive parts are used for grazing. This is how farmers make the most money. They’d be fools to use productive land for grazing and grow crops on poor land.
For private business the tickets are to fund the business. But for public transport they are never expected to cover the costs of the business.
It is run as a public service, not to make money. The function of tickets is to prevent overcrowding.
That’s why in well designed systems, the price is different at rush hour, and for high traffic routes and times.
I don’t know anything about montpellier specifically though.
