    The biggest problem with statistics is it doesn’t illustrate the full picture - most men in that position don’t even realise they’re being abused, or refuse to come out and acknowledge it.

    Those men don’t end up as apart of the statistic. So the statistic is more a indicator as to which gender is more likely to report their abuser, than which gender Is actually a victim.

    No statistic is going to be accurate, because it generally relies on the data being available, when often not all of it is.









  • Yeah but little Caesars doesn’t sponsor nearly every single extreme sport on planet earth and they don’t sell their pizza internationally.

    Red Bull sponsors, Car racing (F1, Supercars, etc) Aircraft comps (STOL, extreme stunts) snowboarding and many many more. They have their own YouTube channels for their sports. Honestly if you want to see some insane shit, chances are it’s got red bull stamped on it somewhere.






  • I’m not saying it’s particularly fast, but having someone who knows what they are doing drastically reduces the time.

    I could probably make it quicker if I set up a bunch of scripts for initial installation.

    That said the whole point of arch is DIY, lightweight - people forget the kinda of people arch is for, then complain about how long it takes to install. If you complain about install times, then the distro is not for you. (For more about the point of arch, see the arch way https://principles.design/examples/the-arch-way)

    But it can be a great platform for learning about the inner workings of your typical Linux system, and that’s why it’s great. If you’re willing to learn and look things up it can be the best option.

    If you want it here and now with no fuss ,it’s the third worst system to use- followed by Gentoo and lastly, LFS.

    And heck once it’s installed you can be as pedantic or as lazy as you want - my main system has had the same install of arch for multiple years - it’s a mess and I havent really maintained it well, I just fix it when it breaks and use it like a regular system. It’s just the set up process that takes the most effort.

    Nah, there’s a big difference between what and how much you’re allowed to block in V2 vs V3 - the current status V2 adblock is way outside the range of V3’s version.

    I’d say V3 blockers can probably block at best 30% of what V2 can block. Which means it has to be selective. It essentially nuders the extension, making it worthless - an adblocker that only blocks some ads is not an adblocker at all. It’s more of an ad restrictor, and in heavily monetized sites it might not even be that.
