They don't have to tell you the truth. It could have been to test whether being told that it's "men vs women" affects the readings test subjects provide

Maybe because incels are the kind of people who would call a woman a whore, instead of respecting her as a person.

[ifixit] We Are Retroactively Dropping the iPhone’s Repairability Score
Reply in thread
Seems to me that it took a huge amount of time and resources to reach the new score, and I'm guessing they don't have the budget to do the same for every model

What subscription finally gave you "subscription fatigue"?
I never made it past Netflix. Once the quality started sliding and prices went up, it was back to the high seas for me. I guess I still have to pay for a VPN service though 🤷

What things are both the best and the worst at the same time?
Phones.
Banking apps, podcasts, gps navigation, chatting to friends, listening to music are all awesome.
But then getting stuck doomscrolling and constantly checking my phone trying to eke out a little more stimulation when literally anything else would be a more productive way to spend my day - that part sucks ass.

I don't think they're beyond redemption. My hope is that Linus can take a step back and let the CEO work on improving the workplace culture. No idea if he's up to the challenge but time will tell

UK parliament calls Taiwan ‘independent country’ as Cleverly visits China
Reply in thread
uhh yeah, so anyway, this is good news for Taiwan because they have a MASSIVE country on their doorstep that has been threatening to invade for decades now, and having another powerful country recognise their existence is great because it discourages mainland China from invading.

Watch: Billionaire CEO says unemployment 'has to jump' to put 'arrogant' workers in their place
Reply in thread
That's the difference between percentage and percentage points. If the unemployment rate were 5% then a 50% increase would make it 7.5%
An increase of 50 percentage points would make it 55%

It was like 5min ago.
Yep I had the misfortune of seeing the child porn, I reported all of it. First time in 3 months so it's not that bad really

NASA confirms summer 2023 was Earth's hottest on record
Weird that you're all calling it "Earth's summer" when it's only been summer in the Northern hemisphere.. Not arguing the point, just saying it sure hasn't been summer down here in Australia

When do you consider a system to be bloated?
My laptop is 6 years old and has been running arch Linux with xfce for most of that time. I got tired of maintaining it and changed to an "easy" Linux mint distro. It takes much longer to boot up now and feels generally sluggish in comparison to a minimal arch install. So from experience, in older hardware having a bloated distro can really slow down your system.

I just wanna say I appreciate people here making intelligent, good faith arguments on both sides without resorting to black or white thinking or getting too aggressive/ abusive.
