Then you make a rule "no low effort political questions".

Seriously? Political questions, political related questions, and international political related questions.

The one you listed is for essentially for posting articles.

Seriously? You're this pedantic on the word discussion? Ok I will amend my first comment to:

We just had probably the most consequential election of our life and you want to ban ~~discussion~~questions and the resulting discussion in the comments?

Jeez all over again.

It's not a small topic, it's a small community to set up all these tiny communities.

Community is what we called subs on the other site.

What's wrong is fracturing. Lemmy is not so massive that it can sustain niche communities for every little topic.

... And now you can't ask anything about politics. There's was doubtless going to be political questions to ask, and politic adjacent (where do I move) that will all be removed.

And you can't even ask about effects on the world either! Gaza, Ukraine, NATO, trade, tariffs, etc. Are those going to be removed? All valid questions, but sounds political to me.

Like way to shut down shit tons of conversation.

Kimball musk:

“In fact, when they did fund us, they realized that we were illegal immigrants,” Kimball says in the video.

“Well, I mean…” Elon says.

“Yes, we were,” Kimbal replies.

“I’d say it was a gray area,” Elon insists as the crowd laughs.

“We were illegal immigrants…” Kimbal says, continuing his story about

Like way to kill your platform for anything educational where you want to pause to look at a graph.

Can you just give us the TLDE?

 

Mercury poisoning of hat-makers – In 18th and 19th century England, mercury was used in the production of felt, which was commonly used in the hat-making trade at the time. Long-term use of mercury products often resulted in mercury poisoning-induced erethism among hat-makers.[1][2] In the late 19th-century United States, a notable example occurred in Danbury, Connecticut, where hat making was a major industry. Instances of erethism were so widespread among hat-makers, the condition became known locally as the "Danbury Shakes." It was characterized by slurred speech, tremors, stumbling, and in extreme cases hallucinations.

Or to load a whole bunch at once so you can Ctrl+F? I used to use RES on the other site to do that.

Maximum, that is.

1 child policy from 1979 to 2015.

2 child policy from 2015 to 2021.

3 child policy since 2021.

The announcement came after the release of the results of the Seventh National Population Census, which showed that the number of births in mainland China in 2020 was only 12 million, the lowest number of births since 1960, and the further aging of the population, against which the policy was born.[5] This was the slowest population growth rate China experienced.[6]

Although the CCP government had high expectations for the new policy,[16] in a 2021 online poll conducted by the state media Xinhua on its Weibo account, using the hashtag #AreYouReady for the new three-child policy, about 29,000 out of 31,000 respondents stated they would "never consider it."[15]

Act of Congress? So he would need majority of both houses and get rid of the filibuster?

Failing that, Executive action?

 

I think there's a fair bit of traffic up and down the east coast and in the Chesapeake Bay, which doesn't necessarily need the huge ships. But I have no idea the size of ships they usually use. Anyone know?

 

Trying to translate video audio if that matters. Tried Deepl on my phone held up to the speaker but it doesn't register for some reason.

 

Where I was it went from 3.5" floppies to USB drives. (There were CDs, but not as easy for things like schoolwork.)

ZIP needed a whole ecosystem of drives, so did you have that?
