@Wolven wait, I thought un-google-ing the world is a good thing? This cache was there for a reason, and it was for a Google AdSense reason. Not caching everything possible is the natural state of things.

@rolle @zav_ I guess I got confused because I saw a discussion in an issue on the mastodon GitHub

"Thursday’s order does not cover American citizens, who make up an outsized portion of Israeli settlers. The Democratic chairman of the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee Ben Cardin asked the White House to take action against this subset involved in violence against Palestinians"

@axios "We've long been told real estate is the best investment you can make" - that's a different topic, arguments for such decisions worth investigating, but probably other

@jeffowski @petergleick another pro tip, just email the authors. I’ve always been able to get a copy of an article and answers to my questions by talking with the authors.

@qualcu @jeffowski there's still Elsevier who charge thousands for a single article and get away with not being called predatory editor

@fahrradverkehr das Problem in Italien ist dass die Regierungen (staatliche und lokalen) die Regeln nicht durchsetzen. Die Landstraßen haben zahlungslose Geschwindigkeitsbegrenzungen. Werden beobachtet nur die jenigen die Kamera haben.

Dann sind noch die Fahrer die abbiegen ohne Signalisierung, die parken im zweiten Spur. Es ist ein Dschungel und nur eine Minderheit sieht dies als Problem.

@KawaTora religion is a very broad concept, I wouldn't think that e.g. Buddhism has the connotations you give to religion. Western Monotheism does have them. Yet, I am not very convinced from your argument.

In particular, I'd rather think that detachment is much more widespread as a consequence of the Century of the Self (as Adam Curtis calls it in the attached documentary) than in the religion-centric centuries before it, at least in Europe. Monotheistic religions do have a very strong notion of community.

Over the recent months, in the context of and other everyday , I'm starting to more and more think that is not the cause. It's just the tip of the iceberg. It's the widespread that just makes us not care about any signs of social problems around us... until these problems enter the always-hungry-for-sensations news cycle.

@gepasi @christopher Out of my experience, there's also the possibility that the journal is perceived (possibly wrongly due a superficial introduction) as predatory and thus not worth responding. @amyjko could this be possible in your case?

@amyjko @LyndaDelph Makes me think you should pressure them more (keep sending request reminders) to at least increase the rate of explicit declines

@tiredofsametab @alyaza I beg your pardon, could you explain what does "fuel-efficient bike" mean? Clearly, you're not talking of pedaling with a push bike. Are you referring to the battery as fuel? How is it fuel-efficient?
