Done :-)

Thanks for the advice! Here’s the archive then: https://archive.ph/sDvch.

Strange, it’s not paywalled for me. Does this community allows to paste whole articles?

One attendee told me they heard about it through word of mouth, which makes sense.

I love to use obsolete technology, things that still perfectly work but are abandoned. But on the internet, these things are generally populated by computer scientists, and it’s a thing I’m not 😅. It’s the same thing on Gopher, Gemini (it’s new but it’s the same ethos), IRC, …

Could you recommend any non-computer related good newsgroup?

Why Milan?

In a perfect world, these would be decided not server-side, but client-side by choices made by the browser users.

But our world is not perfect.

I did using Gemini (the protocol, not Google’s thing) and Gopher.

That’s probably because I live in another country which works very differently, so what I’ll say is not a judgement about the veracity of your comment, but I find incredible that $14’000 a month could be in any capacity considered a mediocre salary… the French president earns that in euros!

From the article :

For one thing, it’s not even clear that the claim that Chinese women have small fingers is even true. Research on global hand size is lacking, but one study found that the average Chinese person has a hand size approximately equal to that of the average German. An analysis of hand size around the world, though it didn’t include China, found that even the largest average differences in women’s hand size between countries was negligible.

This is not the dubious claim.

It is dubious.

Follow your own advice then, you’ll learn that it’s the role of the journalist to qualify wrong and offensive statements reported, or it is implied that the journalist approves of the position.
