More than 70% of central banks are currently researching and/or designing their own CBDCs.

"Crypto is the future" doesn't really mean anything. Anyone can say that and never be wrong, because humans will always be looking towards the future. What I'm interested in is when this future is supposedly arriving. People have been making big claims about this stuff for nearly two decades and it's still pretty irrelevant. Meanwhile CBDCs are actually being developed and rolled out globally. Where is crypto?
If you search on solidtorrents.to there is a version with ~17 seeders.
It's a valid question, but the people asking it never seem to understand why social media is damaging for young people. They never seem to understand that designers are literally taking cues from the gambling industry to create addictive apps and algorithms, or that the brains of teenagers are still developing and are therefore much more vulnerable than an adult's. It's not just a moral panic about porn or cyber-bullying or kids doing something new their parents don't understand and it's not hypocritical for parents to want their children off social media while continuing to use it themselves. I think once you understand the technological aspect then it becomes clear that there is a problem here that needs addressing.
Marshall...?
WHY DIDN'T YOU CALL IT MALL-E?!
WHY?!
If you have slower internet or don't seed 24/7, I would recommend just focusing on seediing torrents with a low number of seeders. It doesn't really matter if you leech the latest episode of a popular new TV series, as there will be so many other seeders, (many with a better capacity to seed). However, for something older or more niche your decision to seed or leech could determine whether someone else gets to enjoy that content.
Xiaomi isn't actually that big in China AFAIK. There is a lot of competition, not just from Apple but all the other Chinese vendors, most of whom are larger. Huawei, Honor, VIVO and Oppo all have at least an equivalent, if not larger, segment of the Chinese market.
I called them soldiers because that is the terminology the person I was replying to used.
I'm sceptical of the idea that an upvote system will actually reward genuine and interesting content, particularly considering this feature extends all the way up to channels with 500,000 subscribers. The most real YouTubers are those with like <10,000 subscribers; those are the channels I would like to have suggested.
They said “Seems unlikely [that pagers would be in the hands of doctors] considering only pagers belonging to Hezbollah had the explosives added.”
I understood that as referring to doctors unaffiliated with Hezbollah, as it has been made pretty clear that Hezbollah doctors were targets of the attack.
It is heavily implied when you’re all saying “Hezbollah” you’re talking about militants.
No it isn't. Maybe that's how you interpreted it, but as I said in another comment it is not just Hezbollah soldiers that were targeted.
Again, it is unreasonable to suggest that workers, including doctors and nurses, that are part of the civilian arm of Hezbollah’s de facto government are fair targets in either morality or international law.
No one has suggested that in this comment chain.
Not just their soldiers, civilian members of the organisation were also using them.
I guess relatively few people still turn to piracy, it seems like all these streaming platforms are massively increasing their prices knowing that their customers will try to rationalise the extra spending somehow.
