I'm interested why flathub > AUR? I try to minimize AUR usage but always assumed it's better than flathub?

this is a completely different issue not in any way related to what you first linked to?

This doesn't apply to GrapheneOS.

Anyone know why so many in Switzerland see the US as an adversary? 25.8% while Spain is 22.5% and Denmark is 20.1%. Did they do something to piss them off in particular that I missed? It's in "A dawning realisation" section.

 

The Homemade defence section is relevant to this sub.

Found it interesting that for some reason Italians are opposed to "buying more weapons from European countries rather than from outside Europe" and Poland is pro "Buying more weapons from the US "

This is WILD. They're not even discussing that "children" may have the same kind of right to privacy as adults.

And by "children" it's everyone under 18. So 17, 16 ,15 yr olds will all get their photos scanned and they will do their best to prevent them from watching porn 🤣

Self-questionnaires

How else do you plan on tracking 34000's peoples diet for 12 years? Lock them in a lab?

40 years ago

How else would you measure life expectancy accurately? You you must track people until a statistically significant portion of them die.

and did not check if the Adventist do continue the healthy habits

I don't really understand how statistically this would matter. They had a large enough study group , tracked them for 12 years and isolated the variables.

each of life expectancy markers yield statistically same result 1.5-2.5 years: not smoking, medium bmi, exercise, eating nuts, being vegetarian.

Yeah and I never claimed it was only cuz of not eating meat.

I am very careful about proclaiming that meat is unhealthy in any dose, because that’s not how humans evolved for the past 300 000 years.

Why do you think natural selection optimizes humans for longevity? (living 85 years free of chronic disease). Evolution just optimizes for survival to reproductive age and successful child bearing.

Just because humans can digest meat and relied on it for survival in harsh conditions does not biologically mean a meat-heavy diet is the optimal fuel for a 90-year lifespan in a modern environment with caloric abundance.

There have been cultures in certain blue zones like in Okinawa where people traditionally ate very little meat.

Less than 1% of their diet was fish; less than 1% of their diet was meat, and same with dairy and eggs, so it was more than 96% plant-based, and more than 90% whole food plant based—very few processed foods either. And, not just whole food plant-based, but most of their diet was vegetables, and one vegetable in particular—sweet potatoes. The Okinawan diet was centered around purple and orange sweet potatoes

Also adventist vegetarians in California:

The plant-based nature of the diet may trump the caloric restriction, though, since the one population that lives even longer than the Okinawa Japanese don’t just eat a 98% meat-free diet, they eat 100% meat-free. The Adventist vegetarians in California, with perhaps the highest life expectancy of any formally described population.

Adventist vegetarian men and women live to be about 83 and 86, comparable to Okinawan women, but better than Okinawan men. The best of the best were Adventist vegetarians who had healthy lifestyles too, like being exercising nonsmokers, 87 and nearly 90, on average. That’s like 10 to 14 years longer than the general population. Ten to 14 extra years on this Earth from simple lifestyle choices. And, this is happening now, in modern times, whereas Okinawan longevity is now a thing of the past. Okinawa now hosts more than a dozen KFCs. Their saturated fat tripled. They went from eating essentially no cholesterol to a few Big Macs’ worth, tripled their sodium, and are now just as potassium deficient as Americans, getting less than half of the recommended minimum daily intake of 4,700 mg a day. In two generations, Okinawans have gone from the leanest Japanese to the fattest

As some people said here, you can just use a password manager or a physical security key (Yubikey, Nitrokey) to store the passkey. Absolutely nothing to worry about then. But either way I don't see any reason to be concerned .

Look up how they work.

 

Governor Tim Walz signed House File 4138 on Tuesday, turning Minnesota into the latest state to demand that social media platforms profile every user who logs on.

The law, which takes effect in July 2027, forces platforms with at least 10,000 account holders or $1 billion in annual revenue to estimate the age of all Minnesota users, obtain parental consent before anyone under 16 can hold an account, and disable a list of features the legislature has labeled “addictive.” It passed the state House 132-2 and the Senate 66-0.

Shoutout to https://uruky.com/

It's a paid private search engine.

https://theprivacydad.com/interview-with-the-engineer-of-uruky-a-private-search-engine/

Trying them out right now, so far so good!

gotta go where the people are

 

Yet another European search engine that recently popped up that are completely independent of Big Tech. Costs 5 eur / month.

EU servers, EU storage, EU payment processing, EU search providers (Marginalia, Mojeek, EUSP, etc.).

Similar to Xprivo that was posted here awhile back. However, they don't plan on using AI

There are no plans to implement any AI features, for now. We find it hard to do in a sensible, responsible, and respectful way.

Also:

After 12 months as a paying customer, you get a copy of the source code.

Personally haven't tried it but something to keep an eye on and be aware that it exists.

On a related note, it's cool to see these fully european search engines pop up and be quite decent. I've been trying Xprivo for a week or so and honestly it does the job. Similar quality to bing IMO. A year or so back all of the search engines that I tried that had an independent index of bing / google were barely usable.
