nobody thinks Ted Cruz is a man of great honor
No highly esteemed deed is commemorated here… nothing valued is here
It is dangerous and repulsive to us
The danger is still present, in your time, as it was in ours

Not sure what njm is trying to say, but Harris and Cheney did do an appearance together:
Perhaps not every disability benefit is, but Social Security Disability Insurance and State Disability Insurance certainly are.
Four minutes for a cup of coffee? Yesterday it was three!
I think the “correct” usage of acronym is only when it is spoken as a word. But language evolves and all that.
You can see the tension in the way MW defines it (including the extended description). Like: here’s the definition of the word, but some people use it when they actually mean initialism. This is in contrast to your more concise and cohesive definition of “[abbreviations] that take the first letter from each word”. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/acronym
It hard to see this as anything other than a bad faith comparison.
It is important to consider the entire life cycle of LNG, but a more even-handed author would conclude we should address these inefficiencies (e.g. via regulation), rather than fixating on promoting coal.

No, but for a different reason.
Conversations have extremely short life spans. After a day, conversations dwindle down to individual threads with back and forths between two people (at best), since they are the only ones revisiting the post (due to notifications).
Even if people were committed (and/or reminded) about revisiting posts, the threading makes it difficult to find what’s new.
Actually it is for formal women.
Although “Formerly WAS” is a good “Who’s on first” style set up.
Ha, I love the backsplanation that they are small and yellow like corn.
That assumes “you” are just the conscious part. If you accept the rest of your brain (and body) as part of “you”, then it’s a less dramatic divide.
Based on what I know of Imposter Syndrome and the Dunning-Kruger effect, it seems you’re at your most competent when you feel like you’re at your least.
I’m not sure how you come to that conclusion, even with the internet meme version of the Dunning-Kruger effect. In the meme version, the incompetent think they are most competent, but I don’t think it follows that the most competent would think they are least competent.
I would summarize the actual Dunning-Kruger effect as: people tend to think they are a bit above average, and actual skill factors in only slightly. Worth emphasizing that these results are over groups of people, and individuals have extreme variation.

The report provides sources, as well as its criteria and methodology. If you are interested in facts, you may find them there.
It’s typically not an instant thing. Below is the description from page 25 of the pdf linked by OP, from which the charts were taken; I have highlighted some mentioned timeframes. There is also a graph on page 24 showing the change over time.
India’s process of autocratization begins in earnest from 2008 and characteristically proceeded in the incremental, slow-moving fashion of the “third wave”. Over the years, India’s autocratization process has been well documented, including gradual but substantial deterioration of freedom of expression, compromising independence of the media, crackdowns on social media, harassments of journalists critical of the government, as well as attacks on civil society and intimidation of the opposition. The ruling anti-pluralist, Hindu-nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) with Prime Minister Modi at the helm has for example used laws on sedition, defamation, and counterterrorism to silence critics. The BJP government undermined the constitution’s commitment to secularism by amending the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) in 2019. The Modi-led government also continues to suppress the freedom of religion rights. Intimidation of political opponents and people protesting government policies, as well as silencing of dissent in academia are now prevalent. India dropped down to electoral autocracy in 2018 and remains in this category by the end of 2023.
India is like 18% of the world population, so it becoming an autocracy explains most of the population swing.
That’s like 30 people in line. It takes half a block and a lane of the stroad to fit 30 people.
Lemmy without politics is kinda a ghost board. There is maybe 3 or 4 new posts a day.
I think your approach of blocking any user who posts about politics is eliminating the most prolific posters when 95% of their stuff is non-political. This is not to say your approach is bad, just that it doesn’t actually represent “Lemmy without politics”.
Once you start showing formatting you will also be able to see and delete “Section Breaks” more easily, which brings in another bit of Word deep magic:
Settings for sections are at the end of the section. If you delete a section break, the previous section will start using the settings of the next section.
This is especially fun for the last section of the document. If you want it to use the settings from the previous section, you have to manually “copy” the settings by editing the good section and then Redo in the bad section.
Humans have honored the dead since before homo sapiens. Laws can be complicated, contradictory, and confusing; respecting the dead is clear and primal.
Yeah, this probably won’t change a lot of minds, but some folks will see there is something wrong about a man who would dishonor the dead to celebrate himself.
On the wiki, the minimum drop level is shown as “Drop Level” in the “Acquisition” box on the right (e.g. 77 for https://www.poewiki.net/wiki/Leper’s_Alms). If you don’t see one, then it is the required level to use. This doesn’t affect Chance Orbs, but does affect Ancient Orbs.
It’s a crude rule of thumb that was questionably useful when it was first promulgated, and now is entirely adrift from reality.
