People burning books usually burn other people's books, not their own.

Why?

My country's passport is categorized as the 3rd better in the word, but I never really used it or saw any special advantage to it.

I suppose it can be useful if you travel a lot internationally, but if that's not the case is not really that big of a deal.

In my life experience the only way to test the reliability of a news source is to actually live some events and see how they are reported by different media.

I have no such experience with al Jazeera, so I couldn't tell you reliably if they are or not reliable. Best advice with media is, unless you are certain they are reliable, treat them as unreliable.

Google CO2 emissions were 1.5 MTo in 2010. By 2018 they were 13 MTo. In 2023 they were 14 MTo.

I'm sorry but there's more to the story that what's being told in the article. For starters any dataset that takes 2019/2020 as their base line is skewed, we all know what happened that year.

And, on the other hand, Google emissions increased by almost a 1000% in ten years before AI.

Truth is more important than that agenda or the dogma. That article does the wild assumption that a big share of the increase in electricity usage is because AI. It may be, or it may not be, but the article presents zero evidences for that claim. And data in hand we know that google can use a ton of electricity without AI. So the impact of AI may or may not be as big as portrayed by the article. And it also disregards completely the massive increases in google emissions before 2019.

You are not missing anything else. That's the only instance of him saying that word.

And I don't think there have never been a racist discourse, ever, in any of his videos.

And you also need enough self control not to just disable it each time you want to enter.

There must be a limit on how many people earth can house.

Saying "not limit" would be an irrational dogma. Earth have limited resources, people will need some quantity of resources per capita, thus there cannot be infinite people. Simple logic.

Once the existing of a limit is accepted we can and should discuss what number it is.

Weak... I'm perfectly able to be unhappy without help from Instagram.

It's not a "may". We are positive on this.

It's kind of chronic, I did the therapy and the meds but it came back eventually. Coping it is from now on.

I have had the opposite impressions. Many people think what they happen to them is unique, until they start talking about it and many people around them is the same.

Maybe not normal, but it's certainly a common issue.

It also happens to me.

In Spain we already have that.

There is an app that let you show only some data of your national ID and it's verifiable by the other party. One of their usecases is specifically age verification. The app shows that the user is over 18 or under 18 and the portrait. There is a qr that can be used for instant verification.

But signing is kind of different. For signing you need an unique id.

I signed this petition with the digital certificate. It really never asked me for much more data. But the digital certificate includes full name, country and national ID number. But I suppose that's the minimum needed for a valid signature.
