But solar and wind are no where near sustainable, or efficient. They are extremely fragile and have serious detrimental effects on their local environment. Nuclear is the best option and gas is a massive improvement. The whole point of this article is that we are chasing a utopian ideal instead of actually fixing the problems. Once again, perfect is being the enemy of improvement.

Of course no one wants to do this. No one wants to not be able to drive their car because an ignition lock circuit failed and now won't unlock. And car electronics fail constantly as it is, no need to add more failure states that lead to a vehicle becoming unusable.

>here is no pro-abortion "extremism". There never has been anything comparable to the anti-abortion bombings. You're simply wrong about this. https://www.kentuckytoday.com/baptist_life/pregnancy-care-ce...

>Abortion rights are going away in some states. And getting stronger in others. Which is my point.

>These reversions, due to in effect religious fundamentalism and pandering to what I only hope are minority crowds emboldened by gerrymandering and the electoral college, are concerning. The U.S. will continue to stagnate if all we ever discuss and rabble about are fringe issues. Why is abortion literally a major topic in every presidential election over decades? Abortion is a tough issue no matter what, and so a compromised is needed. There will never be a totally clean solution. Why are people so damn concerned with decisions others make? In Texas, last time I looked, anybody can initiate a lawsuit against a doctor on abortion related issues, making doctors frozen due to legal worries and even reverting to communicating on paper notes that they then throw away. It's insane. We're taking decision making from the educated and giving it to the uneducated.

RvW was a compromise that made both sides feel shafted, like most good compromises. The rise in extremism on both sides is fueling this, not religious fundamentalism. For states like Texas, where most people still hold to vaguely Christian values and new life is valued over choice, they feel like they are forced to allow murder. For other places like California who have a more secular egalitarian leaning, and value choice over life, they feel as though being limited to before viability is too much restriction.

RvW was always on shaky ground legally and morally speaking [1]. Making it a federal issue was always going to lead to this. States are different, some so different they might as well be separate countries. California, for example has already toyed with the idea of making abortion part of their state constitution. With Roe gone, it's much easier to do that, not harder.

Acting like this was done out of a lack of education is reductive and pointless. The justices know what they are doing and what it means. Just because you happen to be against this particular decision does not make it wrong. Abortion rights are not going away, they are being given back to the states where they belonged in the first place. Activists on both sides will just have to deal with the fact that they can no longer dictate how the entire country lives, just because their local bubble agrees with them.

From the source: "The team found that some traits were more common in certain breeds. For example, compared with a random dog, German shepherds were more easily directed; beagles, not so much. And the authors’ genetic studies revealed that mixed-breed dogs with a particular ancestry were more likely to act in specific ways. Mutts with St Bernard ancestry, for instance, were more affectionate, whereas mutts descended from Chesapeake Bay retrievers had a penchant for wrecking doors."

They then go on to say that the variation is only around 9%, but it does seem to suggest the opposite than what the title claims. If you can estimate behavior of a stray based on assumed breed and be right more than wrong, it would seem that while breed does not predict entirely, it does correlate. It would be nice to see what the actual study was instead of a blurb.

Maybe all those anti-porn "extremists" have a point.

That's coercion.

You might as well say "Well those actresses didn't have to interact with winestien, they could have just not be actresses."

Australia and Canada both have vaccine mandates. You're either being willfully ignorant or trolling. If the later, 10/10 great bait mate.

I managed to install Arch on extremely non-standard hardware while in uni a few years ago, and have never looked back. The Arch community were extremely helpful and kind during that process. Every interaction I have ever had with them has been positive. This interaction strikes me as someone being angered by an obvious attempt at infiltration by another individual (who cares nothing for the community values and only wants things to be vaguely "inclusive")and lashing out aggressively.

Arch doesn't want things inclusive, it wants things done its way. There is nothing wrong with that, Gatekeeping is not a negative term, it's how communities stay internally consistent. Gatekeeping is a community's immune system, and communities who don't do it get sick and die.

>Sorry other Arch users, like it or not, you’ll have to support Manjaro users.

And we do, by providing the wiki. No we are not going to troubleshoot your different distro on our forums, but most issues on Manjaro can be solved by a quick glance at the relevant wiki page. No one will even know you're using Manjaro AND you will have the satisfaction of solving it yourself. Or just use the Manjaro forums. This is an intended workflow, as the Arch wiki links to the Gentoo wiki in the Cron page, since the Gentoo community wrote such a comprehensive guide. That's not Gentoo "supporting Arch users" that's the Arch community acknowledging when really good work has been done, and not duplicating it unnecessarily.
