"very, very long time ago", it was two years ago.

"value" not "valuation". It has a value of hundreds of billions, if not trillions, of dollars. It would require enforceable patents to have that value funnel to one company.

Assuming the bacteria story is true, your open source analogy is wrong. Anyone can copy the bacteria (similar to open source) but there's no maintenance needed once the bacteria is released to the public. Anyone in any country can offer to give you the bacteria. It's naive to think that anyone but a non-profit would release something like this.

No native writing system was known among North American Indians at the time of first European contact.

Please explain the type of evidence you could gather that would tell you American Indians thought intentional burning was a good idea and part of their planned forest management.

From what I'm reading on your link the evidence is evidence of fires burning things down, thus the Indians had an advanced forest management system in place.

America has been at perpetual war for decades. Other counties are hated for much less than this.

If that were true, Apple would just add limiting Airdrop to 10 minutes as an additional default option. Removing Always on airdrop was done because it's the only form of community communications that doesn't go through the Censors.

Why don't you list your non-propaganda media sources? The only one I can think of was WikiLeaks, but your trustworthy, benevolent western governments made sure to destroy it.

At least you have CNN /s

In this case, it's not 'quietly' because it's sinister, it's 'quietly' because it's extremely embarrassing. The US used all its political might to force a global boycott of Russia. Now it's telling farmers to buy Russian fertilizer. I'm no expert, but even I know Russia is a (the?) leading source of fertilizer. And to do this when we were already suffering high inflation? It's a blunder at best.

I imagine you're referring to the importance of good solar conditions for the production of electricity and I agree that's vital. However these articles give false hope by matching peak solar production to the lowest possible consumption period which is always on the weekends with 70 degree weather. You have close to zero commercial machinery, zero need for climate control, zero lighting (people are either outside or use natural light).

And it's always a Sunday when virtually no work is being done, on a day with perfect weather so no AC or Heating and most people have no need for indoor lighting. For most people a black out during this time would go unnoticed.

Expecting any honest reporting on Israel is naive. That hasn't happened for 70+ years.

Bill Gates and Obama are putting their money on coastal properties:

Here's just two examples of rich people who recently bought homes on the coast while telling the plebs to fear the rising water levels:

Ukraine joining Nato is akin to the Cuban missile crisis. Nato is WW3 in the making. It's an idiotic pact that agrees if Russia does anything deemed hostile, they all have to declare war. It's the same stupid type of pact that caused ww1 & ww2. The people pushing it want war with Russia. It will only benefit fat cat oligarchs. You will pay the taxes and you will be doing the dying.

The docs push you in the docker direction, but they also have Laravel Valet which "is a development environment for macOS minimalists": https://laravel.com/docs/9.x/valet

A lot of Laravel devs use Valet instead of Docker.

> all conveniently have something to sell you He's interviewed: - Elon Musk - Tim Ferriss - Neil DeGrasse Tyson - Sam Harris - Matthew Walker - Mike Tyson - Many more

I guess they all conveniently have something to sell(?) but they also have interesting things to say.

> insane disinformation and obviously reactionary nonsense Put another way, he's a person you disagree with on many issues. So should we cancel him now? I guess the principle of free speech is only important when your ideas are repressed.

I'm planning a similar setup. Cloudflare now as email forwarding in beta and then use my personal Gmail account to send mail as by custom domain. Here's a tutorial on setting up Gmail's "Send Mail As": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MEheS8gM4Xs
