31·10 days agoYou can just swap out the main board and CPU, if you want a newer one. There are different models incompatible with each other, but you just gotta choose a shape and then the internals are largely the same.

World News@lemmy.world•Dowry murders in India no longer spark public anger or debate, study findsEnglish
201·11 days agoThousands of women are killed in dowry disputes each year, despite the practice being banned in 1961
This makes it sound like the murder was legal until '61 but that’s when dowry was banned.
The study also points to sex-selective abortion becoming more prevalent as a way of avoiding future debt, citing how India’s 2001 census revealed a skewed child sex ratio, with a national average of 927 girls for every 1,000 boys. In one part of Punjab, the number of girls declined to 754 for every 1,000 boys.
Another society inflicting lasting damage on itself due to antiquated gender roles. Sad to see.
This is the earth plug

24·3 months agoCounter-theory: nothing got stolen, the insurance already paid a million for other treatments buying him a lot of time, but in the end the cancer won.
Now we don’t know any of that because the article is slop and doesn’t tell us anything that wouldn’t fit the sob-story narrative.

15·3 months agoSo there is no reason, why all 300 million people in America shouldn’t get this treatment right now, in case they have cancer? All at once preferably.

2022·3 months agoIt was unlikely the proposed treatment would have sent Tennant into full remission, but the family believed it could have bought him some more time.
Does an actual doctor believe that too?
We don’t have infinite resources to spend on treatment that won’t actually help.
This is a slop article. No actual info on success chances, prior treatments etc.

“Rape” she means strip-searched.
Edit: To be clear: That doesn’t mean it’s not bad. I just wouldn’t call it rape. Illegal strip-searches are bad.
