protestants, including evangelicals, are not catholics and do not follow the pope

According to a 2024 Gallup survey, approximately 69% of the U.S. population—about 235 million out of 340 million people—identify as Christian.[1] A plurality of Americans identify as Protestant (45%), followed by Catholics (22%). Smaller Christian groups include members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (1.5%), Eastern Orthodox Christians (0.5%), and other Christian denominations (0.4%).[1]

Yandex is Russia’s Google, sold in 2024 to Russian oligarchs with close state ties, so I’d say it’s justified to criticize this particular sponsorship business

It seems to have the added benefit of being an added barrier to market entry for their competitors.

I’m fairly sure the regulations only kick in when the service has something millions monthly active users.

hourly CN air quality map, unit is µg/m³: https://www.air-level.com/

reuters says "The WHO considers PM2.5 concentrations above 50 micrograms per cubic metre "severe" air pollution." but I couldn't actually find that in WHO global air quality guidelines or anywhere else. china considers >500 µg/m³ "severe" (严重) and everything on the map would be below that

Manual tab unloading with improved unloaded tab previews, macOS passkeys, Windows redist bundling, and assorted import/UI fixes.

 

Since yesterday, Jordanlund is continuing to remove reporting like that from the reputed https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drop_Site_News (article depicted in the screenshot is https://www.dropsitenews.com/p/israeli-spy-yoni-koren-stayed-jeffrey-epstein-apartment-ehud-barak) just for being hosted with substack. He is now moderating World News and Politics at lemmy.world.

Yes, legitimate news sites use Blogging platforms, they also use Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube and we don't allow those links either.

goodness, that is not the point. That means these outlets post to their own website while also reposting the thing on twitter. In so many cases, their own website uses substack/wordpress! For example, https://time.com/ is the official website of Time magazine, as in the publisher of Time Person of the Year. It uses WordPress, as you can see by going to https://time.com/wp-admin/.

If he wants to target blogspam, he should be targeting things like The Daily Beast and https://www.utubepublisher.in/, which use none of the technologies he's targeting. This ban on CMS technology is arbitrary and does not prevent poor publishing that simply registers a domain, as anyone may register a domain.

Generally, I like Scottish people (I remember that nice little lady in Dr Findlay's casebook) so I expect Anthony (for that is his name) has nice legs and looks very dashing in his kilt when throwing telegraph poles about, which seems to be one of their extraordinary national pastimes. (quite why one hesitates to imagine)

 

A random ballot or random dictatorship is a randomized electoral system where the election is decided on the basis of a single randomly selected ballot. [...] Random dictatorship was first described in 1977 by Allan Gibbard, who showed it to be the unique social choice rule that treats all voters equally while still being strategyproof in all situations. Its application to elections was first described in 1984 by Akhil Reed Amar. The rule is rarely, if ever, proposed as a genuine electoral system, as such a method (in Gibbard's words) "leaves too much to chance". However, the rule is often used as a tiebreaker to encourage voters to cast honest ballots, and is sometimes discussed as a thought experiment. ...

Today, on Black Friday, many Gen Z shoppers won’t be scouring luxury stores or big-box aisles for their gifts. Instead, they are turning to thrift stores, consignment shops and resale apps. About 86 percent of Gen Z-ers say they’re more likely to purchase a secondhand holiday gift this year than they would have been, according to a report from eBay.

The donor and his family were healthy, and not aware of any problem. He also did not inherit the mutation, but developed it spontaneously in some cells before he was born. [...] ‘Each sperm in an ejaculate is slightly different so screening these is also not simple – though if a child is born with a condition the screening sperm approach can be used to tell if a risk like this exists.

A way to combat [chaos in discussions] is to imagine all the potential contributors are standing in a circle. The person who starts the debate (by nominating an article for deletion, say) throws a ball into the circle. The game is meant to be that you catch it, throw it to someone else, and then sit down. Games get so complicated though...
