‘The Hague Invasion Act’

“Hello, this is Linus Torvalds and I pronounce ‘Linux’ as ‘Linux’.”

So yeah, he pronounces ‘Linus’ like ‘LEE-noose’, and ‘Linux’ like ‘LEE-nooks’. (Roughly, anyway. It should get the point across for most English speakers, I’m not at a computer to do a more-correct IPA transcription right now.)

“Hello, this is Linus Torvalds and I pronounce ‘Linux’ as ‘Linux’.”

There are new claims being published.

Yeah, I’m surprised it hasn’t been deleted for being against the rules.

Here’s a recent article from an actual news organisation: https://www.euronews.com/2023/11/27/israel-stealing-organs-from-bodies-in-gaza-alleges-human-right-group

And their MBFC page: https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/euronews/

It plans to open 900 new stores in the U.S. and 1,900 in some of its bigger international markets like Canada, Germany, the United Kingdom and Australia. The company said it plans another 7,000 stores in other international markets; more than half of those would be in China.

It seems like it’s being grown in a lot of places now. Many people in this thread have mentioned Oregon (USA), and I know it’s also being grown in Tasmania (Australia).

Where, the U.S.? Seems like there’s gotta be other times and places that were more woman- and queer-friendly, right?

Yeah, antibiotics is a big one. Plus, some of my skills might actually still be useful in the 40s.

But life did suck in a lot of places for a lot of people in the 40s. WW2, the devastation left behind by WW2, and horrible social attitudes. Good luck in ‘the west’ if you’re not a straight white cis man.

You could probably memorise how to identify the right fungus and isolate penicillin, right?

Pretty decent, although the inclusion of the last paragraph without the following paragraphpointing out that this incident shows that’s not true is a little misleading if you’re not paying attention.

ive just heard of an incident where students redirected their books codes to p**n. can i make sure that doesnt happen?

This is kind of confusing, or at least leaves a lot of detail out 😆 Did the domain lapse? Did their short-URL account get hacked? In any case, your QR code will just be encoding a URL. Ultimately, any URL can be redirected by someone out there; so it’s just a matter of trusting that whoever has that access won’t act maliciously, and that malicious actors can’t gain access.

also, im using google to generate them, is there a foss alternative as im scared of tracking.

There absolutely are, just search and you should find plenty. Again, though, the QR code is just encoding a URL. Does Google use their own short-URL service for their generated QR codes? Just scan the QR code and look at the URL it encodes. If it’s only the URL you want - not some Google short-URL that then redirects to the URL you entered - then there can’t be any tracking done on it by Google.

lastly, can i make the qr code redirect to a specific page of a pdf

Covered by another commenter already, but for completeness: yes, you just add #page={n) at the end of the URL, e.g. https://dagrs.berkeley.edu/sites/default/files/2020-01/sample.pdf#page=5

Yeah, #page={n) works, e.g. https://dagrs.berkeley.edu/sites/default/files/2020-01/sample.pdf#page=5

Title is missing a word or two. Should be ‘Likelihood that average global temperature to will rise …’ or something.

I already did a ‘Test’ in reply to your ‘Test’.

EDIT: Oh, I see I was beaten to it and hadn’t refreshed. In any case, I’m just replying to your post with my comment above, not doing the test.
