Brb, sending this to all my friends to highlight why they should join me in the fediverse instead of on IG

Correct. Locations are not causal. There is no causal link between rape and location.

I would imagine it’s when there’s a conversation happening that’s relevant to the question. In this case, the conversation is explicitly about what causes rape, so the question seems out of place and not in good faith.

Easier to document the nexus, for sure

You laugh, but they absolutely could mandate viewing by members of the military. Even those who are on leave or have a valid excuse could be made to watch the recording later. I’ve seen dumber (maybe?) orders come down.

Agreed. Knowing for sure that they carried out the physical act should be the bare minimum to even consider the death penalty (assuming we can’t just get rid of it).

Highly dependent on the people involved. My oldest friend I’ve known since high school. We’ll occasionally send a meme back and forth but he’d never even met my kids until they were in their teens. We live far apart. But when my dad passed and I needed his help with something, he dropped everything and drove 6 hours round trip to be there. I probably see him or have a substantive conversation with him once or twice a year.

Design failure or design intent?

Aside from the outcome, it’s crazy that in 2001 there were still enough “Internet non-users” to make gathering data on them statistically significant

The goal is to make sure doctors, not advertising budgets, determine which medicines are prescribed, prevent medical overconsumption, and help keep health costs in check.

What a wild concept

The story is somehow even weirder than the headline.
