if your phone is supported by e/os/ you can try that. it's almost completely degoogled, i'm using it and it works. if you really want to de-android your phone, your best bet would be postmarketos. i use that, too, but not full-time. it mostly works, depending on your device.

hey everyone, devil`s advocate here (and a civil engineer).

the critical temperature in question is not the melting point. at lower temperatures, steel behaves elastically, meaning it regains its initial state. then it starts to behave elastoplastically, which means it almost regains its initial state with no critical damage. then it behaves plastically, which means it deforms and cant get back its initial state and leads to structural failure, gradually. eurocode 3 covers building fires up to 800°C if im not mistaken, meaning steel doesnt lose its structural capacity up to that range. knowing how these codes are written, i bet it wouldnt turn into slush at 801°C.

additionally saying that "the entire strength of the structure was on the outer edge" is plain wrong. nobody even would consider to design a building like that, and i know for a fact that the core of this specific building was exceptionally and unnecesarily built strong.

i have been having this inner conflict with myself for decades. these two building fell after a plane hit them (and another without a plane impact). but i cannot accept that they caused the collapse, my professional integrity does not let me.

current map is below. the colored lines are the ones in service, white lines are the ones in construction. this year at least three of those will start their service.

i always hear people compare american healthcare to "comparable oecd countries" but it's the same here in turkey, too. it's bizzare that americans think healthcare is a commodity. you get sick, you go to a hospital and get your medicine. you have an emergency, you call an ambulance and get your surgery. and most of it all, you pay (almost) nothing, that's the contract between the ruling class and the workers.

my nephew is diabetic and when i asked my uncle how much they paid for insulin (i thought they had to pay for at least something) he was like "pay for what?".

during the elections they have coalitions so that's not an electoral issue. other than that they histories of their of own, and party loyalists of their own. i don't think it's much discussed.

they're both not bad, which is surprising. my personal favorite is TIP, just because they've been more consistent throughout the years. and as a plus, they have actual representatives in the parliament now, 3 to be exact.

is there a possibility that he gets called to testify and asked "what did you mean by america deserved 9/11?" because that can get him killed, unironically.

"In the 1968 presidential election, the Democratic candidate, Vice President Hubert Humphrey, waited until 5 weeks before the election to break with President Johnson over the Vietnam War. Humphrey finally insisted he would end the war. It was too late. Richard Nixon won. The result? Another 21,000 dead American soldiers who literally died for nothing."

one wonders whether there were also other humans that died as a result of that.
