I have trouble with using tone in my words but not interpreting tone from others’ words. Weird, isn’t it?

  • Thanks! I’m new to Wikinews too but my impression is that the only thing you need to cite an interview is files of the medium over which the medium was conducted: audio for calls, logs for chats, email threads for… emails, etc. (The parts that aren’t part of the interview’s conversation do need to be sourced, though Wikinews doesn’t appear to do inline citations.) So I would need that to post this on Wikinews. (assuming they allow such non–“first-hand” content in the first place, which I think they should but can’t find anything about lol)






  • okay that’s enough. here’s the actual answer:

    People have told me I don’t know how good I have it.

    That my complaints about Linux['s accessibility for the blind] are too much. That I’m spoiled. That back in the day, things were harder. That Windows XP was worse in every way. That modern systems are faster, more usable, more accessible — and I’m just being dramatic.

    So I decided to call that bluff.

    —part 1

    One of the points Fireborn made in their famous “I Want to Love Linux. It Doesn’t Love Me Back” series is that Linux accessibility has deteriorated a lot over time.








  • RJM is chair of the Scientific Advisory Board for the European Hydration Institute. PW has received funding in the last 3 y from the European Hydration Institute for other hydration-related research. None of the other authors reported a conflict of interest related to the study.

    Could not find much more information on this institute. It ran an introduction to a conference in a supplement to a trusted, peer-reviewed journal but supplements have a general reputation of being advertisements.



  • article links to a yahoo version of 2019 CNN which links to a 2016 study with a URL resulting in a redirect to the new standalone website for the journal now-declared-independence instead of a DOI I had to rescue from the archives which now links to the ScienceDirect hosting of the article instead: https://doi.org/10.3945/ajcn.115.114769 (Thankfully open (archive) access)

    In summary, the present study describes a novel tool to enable the objective assessment of the effectiveness of beverages to maintain hydration status. The BHI is reproducible and the pattern of response for a range of commonly consumed beverages is consistent with what is known about the effects of their constituents on water balance.


  • aww thanks. these are great! (though obviously the one in the post seems better)

    the “i tend to forget” image i guess you’re referring to is actually also a screenshot. of a short walking simulator on roblox called “oobja”. all i did was take a screenshot at a lucky time, carefully crop it, and run it through gif compression.
