Please fix your capslock or your shift key. I mostly used it over the containers extension with some containers for specific countries.

Is it weird for me that i think this helps pedophiles so much in finding victims?

We know that the leader flock is having security problems where literally anyone could access the livestreams, the others are probably not better.

My worst fear would be that pedophiles would use the streams to find and abduct victims in broad daylight by posing as cops.


Or pedophile cops just use the system directly. I don't even want "good" people surveilling me and everyone else, but with all of these systems you can assume the worst person that has access to them will be using them nefariously.

It depends

It looks it only tracks the upstream support of postgres. I dont know a company that uses that. Most use an downstream version that comes with extra support for versions that are upstream EOL.


Afrika has a lot of landmass around the equator, while the others are at the edges where in the mercator anything is stretched out. Europe and north america appear bigger than they are.

That is factually correct, but what is the impact of it? Why does it matter concretely?

Does it matter whether things are true, even if their impact is not readily apparent?

Now, as to impact, one could argue distorting the relative sizes of landmasses causes geopolitical ignorance. For example: do people understand how relatively small western Europe is, the ramifications of that for their political unity, transport system, and impact on the world?

Showing the true size of Africa helps to put into context its challenges with regional transport, political unification, flow of ideas, etc. It also shows that Africa is actually has a relatively low population density. It also makes it easier to understand why lumping everything there under an "Africa" moniker is weird.

As a side effect, the sizes of other regions like South America are also shown more accurately.


the pull out then was an reaction to the black friday.

How is that news? Changing the fuel is already the low hanging fruit. On the higher hanging fruit work is already being done, but it still takes years for that.


The entire place is yours: as everyone knows this is wrong. Larry lives there and lets the prime ministers stay there.
