According to KnowYourMeme it’s from a photoshoot. Maybe an acting toddler, or a photographer who made a toddler cry.

When making movies or TV shows that require a crying baby, they’re supposed to wait for the baby (or it’s twin) to cry, and not to actually make it cry.

Aren’t the A and Q keys also at terrible positions?

To disable it (for now):

1. at the top left tap the 3 horizontal lines,
2. near the bottom tap “Settings”,
3. tap your account,
4. scroll to the middle and unselect “Smart features”.
5. Consider moving over to a non-psychotic, non-fascist-supporting email provider, like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuta_(email)

Anyone know how to get rid of the Gemini icons?

Scientists didn’t become pickier - they just later found that Pluto was in a belt of thousands of massive object (called the Kuiper belt), like the asteroid belt but much bigger.

When Ceres was discovered in 1801, it was thought to be a comet, later a planet, but after discovering it was one of many asteroids in the asteroid belt (which it wasn’t big enough to clear), they realized it wasn’t a planet.

When Pluto was first discovered in 1930, it was in a similar situation as Ceres and thought of as a planet, but when other Kuiper belt objects started to be discovered by 1992, they realized Pluto also wasn’t a planet.

Factory farming for the vast majority of chickens, is life-long enslavement in torturous conditions.

Hundreds of billions of non-aquatic animals are enslaved by factory farmers every year.

Trillions of fish are enslaved in factory farms every single year.

If I remember correctly I had the same start: tested Knoppix, tried Mandrake for a short time, then Ubuntu which I used for several years until Gnome 3 when I switched to Xubuntu for several years, but when snap happened I tried Debian, then Mint for a while, but I’m now trying MX.

If you value your time, then maybe only watch finished shows with excellent word-of-mouth/ratings? If it declines instead of ending while still good, then stopping where people suggest? Possibly also skip the initial seasons if it only gets good later.

If you want to talk around the water cooler about the most popular zeitgeist shows, then maybe make exceptions for those that are the buzz after their 1st few episodes like Game of thrones, tho you should be prepared to quit the show after a few consecutive poorer episodes indicating its almost certain decline. (PS: I’d recommend stopping before Game of thrones’ 6th season).

While the temperature forecast is for 33 ºC, the heat index in the capital yesterday was up to 41. Forecasts for the next 2 days, are up to 40 on the heat index in the capital. Yesterday the heat index was over 40 in several other areas, with a maximum of 45. https://www.pagasa.dost.gov.ph/weather/heat-index

If you don’t want to be complicit in causing a mass extinction event by making the biosphere unlivable, then by far the most important thing to do is to not contribute to human overpopulation which is the biggest and root cause of catastrophic anthropogenic climate change as well as the biggest other atrocities.

“In November of 2019 Kennedy sent a letter to the prime minister, obtained by Scott Kennedy and shared with Vanity Fair, speculating that the measles outbreak might be attributed to the vaccine itself.” https://www.vanityfair.com/news/story/robert-kennedy-jr-shocking-history

These hemorrhagic-fever like outbreaks (like Ebola and Marburg) usually don’t spread too far because of how dramatic the symptoms are and of how quickly they usually kill patients: here “death occurs within just 48 hours of the onset of symptoms”.

“However, here, it is concerning that we have hundreds of cases and over 50 deaths, with hemorrhagic-fever like symptoms widely reported among those cases.” - Michael Head. Current estimate of a “fatality rate of 12.3 percent” is of course a major problem locally, tho that % could be completely wrong.

If there are few or no asymptomatic carriers, and the incubation is period is short, then it’s unlikely to be like COVID-19.

Bird flu is still big concern - and potentially the solution to omnicidal anthropogenic climate change.
