I mean, what's Lemmy? There's no information

> Appeal committees must be bought. Britain is the most corrupt country not in Europe..

Local authorities refusing planning isn't corruption. And if you think Britain is corrupt I assume you have no familiarity with other countries.

It's actually a core bit to the "Getting Things Done" book

Yea. And yes it is terrible. But i paid for a ipv4 static from the ISP

Filing used to be an essential skill for success. By having a good filing system you offload mental bandwidth otherwise used to track your heap of stuff.

If you/your company can't commit to a standard then that's the issue.

It has no controller, you can't game on it

How do you game on it?

Do explain

Then you are incorrect

> Aren't heat pumps the same as air conditioning? I have one

not even remotely

HST berating the avarice, narcissism & decadence of others - indeed a classic vibes moment in time.

WHO provides no value whatsoever at this point. It's clearly halfway between a joke and a self serving bureaucracy with a parallel structure of anti west social purpose thrown in for good measure.

Go fishing or play golf, would be my genuine advice

^weather depending, interlink capacity depending

In the UK it's windy today and sunny -

That she has the same source material as has been available for a millenia and came to a different conclusion to anyone else should be the first hint.

She has no more or less evidence than anyone previous when this was published.

It's a directed attempt to create a history based entirely on speculation. The language treatment on the linked page screams it out

> And the practice of child sacrifice could even hold the key to why the civilisation was founded in the first place.

and

> 'But in the 20th century, people increasingly took the view that this was racist propaganda on the part of the Greeks and Romans against their political enemy, and that Carthage should be saved from this terrible slander.

and

It's not history (and certainly not science as other people here say) - it's polemic reinterpretation to meet a narrative from someone who's pet interests are "colonialism", "postcolonialism" and how evil it is.

> But, in any given field, the job is to sort the probable propositions from the improbable.

The job is also to assert no conclusion when appropriate. That has not happened here.

And reinterpretation of history is not remotely "science"

The author credited is Josephine Quinn, a subscriber to intersectionality who wishes to provide an assumption for easy consumption that it wasn't just Africans and Aborigines who subscribed to barbarism (her assumption). Her assertion is that as the western world is based on the ancient Greek and Roman world (again her assumption) and that they were barbaric and that therefore we in the west are not better than them (again her assumption, not mine).

It's the quotation of source material love the most about this comment

Sounds like a mental illness and behavioural illness generation device

Paradigmatically that's of little to no value to anyone beyond an amusement.

It's Project Looking Glass 2.0

Tie to a phone number, is basically it. Even that's not full proof with virtual number apps akimbo

Someone born in the 90s is now in their 20s-30s.

> what you can do on Instagram,

Lol. Err what can you do on Instagram that is a demonstration of deep technical understanding?

Is there information to further this desired information that can't be accessed from a £400 laptop or pc?

I've been coding for over 30 years. I don't recall using a phone to bring up an API document

I'm the 90s kids kept in touch with MSM messenger, AOL I'm, irc and voice telephone calls from land lines.

Somehow they are nowhere nearly as mentally screwed up as their own children

So you think people born in the 1990s are unable to communicate but at all?

What did parents do before 2012 or so?

What element of safety does the phone confer?

I'd argue that modern devices and their OS + touch only interfaces engender tech skill attrition more so than anything that went before.

If you think using a phone makes one "tech savvy", you aren't very "tech savvy".
