Scientist for the first twenty years of my life:

We are destroying the only ecosystem supporting human life, it's going to start being really bad in a hundred years.

Scientists for the last ten years of my life:

Haha, we might have been a bit optimistic on that estimate, this new data looks really bad. Oops.

Anti-doomers the whole time:

Hey don't be alarmist, you will just make the public apathetic and nothing will get done.

The public:

The fuck are these fucking idiots sitting in the god-damn road for? I gotta get to work, move it!

Politicians:

*doing nothing*

So it’s either a Chrome thing or a Mac and Chrome thing.

Neither really, it's a font thing. I see a wooden wheel in the page title, a car wheel in my tab bar, and it's missing in the window title.

Die Bundeswehr benutzt bereits einen Matrix-basierten Messenger, den BwMessenger, und die Firma welche den entwickelt hat arbeitet gerade auch an einer Version für den ÖD im Allgemeinen, den BundesMessenger. Ist technisch gesehen noch in der Beta, aber die haben das komplette Backend containerisiert und einen eigenen Client entwickelt. Vielleicht sieht das ja für eure Admins ein wenig überzeugender aus als ein (zugegebenermaßen komplexes) Matrix-Backend selber zusammen zu frickeln:

liveuamap.com reports there was a second plane owned by Prigozhin in the air, so my conspiracy theory is he got wind of the impending assassination, swapped the passenger lists, and will be announcing his "March of Justice" 2.0 shortly.

Actually you are both wrong, since the Balkenkreuz and the Eiserne Kreuz are but two of hundreds of variations of the same symbol, the black cross of the German Order of knights, dating back to the 12th century. It's the same symbol.

And not only that, the particular variation you are going on about, the Balkenkreuz, black cross with a thick white and small black outline except for the endings of the cross, isn't a Nazi symbol. It was used in the first world war already.

Which is all completely ignoring that it's a simple cross with a single outline, one of the most basic shapes there is, used by a medical company.

All to say, I see how it's easy to mistake, but you are wrong on the facts and you are airing your grievances on the wrong venue. Write to the company, maybe they will even agree with you and change it.

Ah yes, Popper's paradox of tolerance strikes again. (If demonstrating intolerance is the appropriate reaction to witnessing intolerance, how can you distinguish between first order and second order intolerance in the behaviour of others?)

Healthcare could definitely be better, but 67% of Americans are satisfied with their insurance.

No offense, but this sounds a bit like asking the congenitally blind if they miss seeing.

No, they are owned by HMD Global which is a company that was initially comprised mostly of former Nokia executives. They produce in China though (like everybody else).

Yes, the Nokia X10. Worked rather well over the last two years, although the only thing I can compare it to are devices I got from work (mostly older Samsungs with a ton of crapware).

The third iteration of Nokia is back to building phones, and the smartphones they sell are part of the Android One program (stock Android, two years of updates guaranteed).

Yes for 16 of the 33 seconds the video is long, and only to have his point epically refuted in the rest of it. Invest the 33 seconds, it's worth it to be aware of this small piece of internet history.

Well as one of today's lucky 10,000, let me tell you it's not dependent on the KDE/Android combo. There are versions for Windows, macOS, and iOS (although some functionality is missing).
