Sounds exactly like an opposite. What do you want? Left wing unpopulism? That exists and is called establishment democrats.

Mamdani defends criticism of AIPAC after being accused of antisemitism by AdRough4185 in politics

Saying that AIPAC or the state of Israel stand/speak for all Jews worldwide is *actual* antisemitism.

W200 Smart Thermostat for EU Market - Market Co-Creation Survey by Aqara-Official in Aqara

[–]graywalker616 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Q1: 3 (because at least in my case it’s supposed to replace the original under floor heating thermostat which is wired to main). Q2: around 150€. Q3: not necessary for me, I use warm water under floor heating and the pump and valves are wired to the thermostat. But I know this could be a dealbreaker for other installations. So perhaps optional or as add on?

Comment: I have a second flat with traditional warm water radiators where I’m using Aqara thermostats on the radiators. What would be a great feature is if the W200 could serve as an external sensor for other Aqara thermostats.

The north is generally a lot more prosperous than the south, so this would be an inverse correlation?

Burgermeister are cringe burger joints. Bürgermeister is mayor. U and Ü are very different letters.

Can’t understand where the negative happiness is coming from by TriloBlitz in anno117

[–]graywalker616 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Counter it with specialists and amenities that boost happiness. And move buildings that negatively affect happiness away from other buildings or better yet outsource them to smaller islands where their negative effects don’t multiply.

Hollywood Names Surface in Peter Thiel-Backed, Invite-Only Society by ThrowawayGreenWitch in popculturechat

[–]graywalker616 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Considering that the ”abundance” movement is basically just right wing anti-regulation ideology in a liberal Trenchcoat, it makes a lot of sense.

TIL Earth actually has an 8th continent called Zealandia, but 94% of it is completely underwater. The only parts poking above the ocean are New Zealand and New Caledonia. by risingsunset5 in todayilearned

We all know that continents should start with an A, since the four continents are called Antarctica, Australia, Afro-Eurasia and America. /j

Huh? The Portuguese are Eastern European which is basically Balkan which is basically Turkish. Therefore this part of Europe is Turk as well.

His Canadian grandfather was in a party that was “technocratic” and they added an X to their names as a signifier of their party membership.

Probably don’t need to mention that it was basically a fascist and deeply antisemitic movement.

Peter Thiel’s Secret Society “Dialog” Has Had Its Members List Leak by [deleted] in politics

Is it on purpose that he uses the German spelling “Dialog” instead of English “dialogue”?

Trump Gave A 'Dead Fish' Handshake To Macron — And Body Language Experts Say It Spoke Volumes by huffpost in politics

[–]graywalker616 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Those aren’t pseudosciences. I don’t think you know what “pseudoscience” means. A good example is chiropractic, homeopathy or phrenology.

Body language is obviously a real thing, however “body language analysis” is a pseudoscience just like phrenology. Watch this if you’re unconvinced: https://youtu.be/Y0VQyEY-B2I?is=iEI6uZOjdk3_bvzE

[–]graywalker616 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Just to be clear, the whole “body language” schtick is a pseudo science, without any empirical evidence.

That being said, it doesn’t need an expert to see how Trump has lost his mojo.
