Arch Linux is actually very stable

The intent is to imply that low impulse control shows high intelligence.

Yes, it's from there.

A picture of a man jumping into a lake as his friends look on, with overlaid text saying, "There is a correlation between intelligence and low impulse control".

Same here too, a 7 Pro.

The keyword is likely. I agree that there is some correlation, but we can't know for sure how strong the connection is unless we are given the numbers, and their lack is the reason for this math in the first place. If we assume that all straight people are cis (which I doubt), then we need not do any math - the number of straight cis people is the number of straight people. If we assume no correlation at all (which I also doubt), then we get a more reasonable number. If we assume some correlation, then we just get a similar number, but the math gets a lot messier.

Sorry, but WTF is this math. Cis people, regardless of sexual orientation, are less than 65% of respondents. Straight people, regardless of gender identity, are also less than 65%. How come people who are both at the same time would be more? You are saying that e.g. cis straight people are more than straight people in total.

What your math gives is what share of cis people are straight, if we assume that all straight people are cis.

It's not possible to answer that precisely with the data available, but we can make an estimate.

43.3% of respondents are straight. 58.4% are cisgender. If we assume there's no correlation between being straight and being cis, then 43.3% of cis people will also be straight. That gives us 43.3% × 58.4% = 25.3% of respondents being both cis and straight. 25.3% of 950 is 240 people.

AFAIK the two are identical, and words such as "how", "do" and "what" are mostly ignored by the engine. The only content words in both are "apple" "pie" and "recipe"/"cook".

How is this significant in any way to anyone at all?

[–] themarty27@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Well, using a more complex search does improve results...

You absolutely should. With time, the data they have on you will grow outdated, meaning they won't be able to track an analyze your behaviour because they'll have no idea how you behave now. It's like the trail going cold. Hell, just becoming privacy focused already makes it near-impassible to be tracked, and since privacy-aware software doesn't track, collect, sell or buy your data, what little they have will be much less useful. Also, if you live in the EU, the GDPR gives you a right to request the deletion of all data they have on you, and they must comply. Most other places probably also have laws in place to request the deletion of your data.

To me crypto has some genuine projects, although it is dominated by scammers and grifters. Nym, which is a mixnet project, with a token to incentivize people to host nodes, and Stasis Euro, a euro-backed stablecoin, look pretty legitimate. I believe there really are honest, well-intentioned crypto projects, though they are a minority and largely suffer from redundancy or poor implementation.

NFT's are 100% a scam though.

 

An illustration, in early twentieth-century style, of four pairs of legs dressed in marching band attire, with exposed buttocks. Torsos are absent, and upon the bottoms are placed marching band hats. Between each pair of buttocks is inserted a brass instrument. On the bottom of the image is a caption in cursive print. The caption reads, "The ass band will play a song of farts to celebrate your failure."

Shadow the Hedgehog, dressed as a toddler, asks, "When will the baby come, mommy?". Spongebob Square Pants, blushing, wearing a night gown and with a bulging belly, responds, " Soon, sweetheart". Shrek, towering behind them, happily looks down upon Spongebob.
