Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted seperately but not to the post body.

Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.
Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.

Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.

Holy shit, what a sad website. Just a few random snippets:
Marijuana is a highly addictive drug that causes (...) violence and violent fits
Marriage is the divinely ordained covenant between one man and one woman
The Bible, being the most comprehensive transcendent moral authority
🤮
Are we sure this isn't a parody website?
Nope, it's deadly serious.

Me too!
last year was my first time; looking forward to doing it every year now
Not sure that I'll be donating every year, but I also donated for the first time in 2024. Every little bit counts and when I can find the extra money, I'll send it their way. Also, friendly reminder, it's possible to download the entire contents of Wikipedia with less than 100GB. It's just 16GB if compressed.
I can carry around Wikipedia on a thumb drive? What about with pictures?
You can. You just need the storage space.
I specifically meant, what is the total size of Wikipedia with all the pictures and videos included?
Without converting the download to .pdf there's no way to know and I don't know if that's even possible. The simplest way to download Wikipedia is through Kiwix. The largest download is 109.89GB and is stored in a .zim format so you need to use a specific application like Kiwix to read it, but its free and open source.
'which is how he prefers to be identified' ... hmnnn - so he CHOOSES to IDENTIFY as one thing and doesn't like it when people don't allow him to use his preferred identificaiton?
I also choose to identify as the founder of Tesla.
I miss the times when people like this was seen as mentally ill.
