I didnt bother reading the second since the first was blatantly misleading.

The second looks like they’re trying to p hack hack their way to a result.

They also have more relapses in the curicumin group in the second 6 month period than the control group. They also have enough people leaving the control group to cause a shift in their p value to make their results insignificant.

The second papers findings are weak and they aren’t very robust.

The evidence is much better for SSRI, and it isn’t great, but the referred paper even points out that the curriculum wasn’t as effective as an SSRI.

The meme remains true, no proper or valid studies exist. The existence of a paper doesn’t prove that, the paper is self addresses it wasn’t a proper study. They just did it in a dishonest way.

This study is absolutely terrible.

The study found no differences in the first four weeks. More than 10% dropped out during the study. The study was too small a sample to draw any serious conclusions from. The conclusions they did draw from were a subsample of people they declared treatment resistant. They even say in the paper their isn’t enough data to suggest their was any benefit, just not forcefully enough. Just enough to make low information readers think the study was successful.

This study was done in response to two other studies. One which showed no benefit another that suggested a benefit, but the study lacked a control group. So no meaningful conclusion could be drawn.

Finally the researchers were funded by ‘health supplement’ groups.

You need port forwarding to connect on torrents. Your able to torrent because everyone you torrent from has port forwarding enabled. If you want to access more seeders, and more commonly leechers you need port forwarding. This is useful for people using private trackers that want to maintain a ratio.

There are plenty of other options in the market, including ones with port forwarding. It’s a very saturated market.

That’s what mullvlad say. It’s not necessarily the reason why they don’t offer port forwarding.

It was always possible for them to continue allowing port forwarding. They could use separate servers for those that want port forwarding, stopping any impact port forwarding had on those customers.

Port forwarding means torrents. People using a VPN to torrent likely have much more traffic, especially those that seed (which is why they want port forwarding). Not enabling port forwarding means mullvlad can operate at a higher profit to cost ratio, and less risk.

Google will know. They gather all WiFi and Bluetooth data in the name of location services.

Android defaults to lying about your Mac address, which can be frustrating if you want to manage your home network.

Businesses would avoid this by making their apps certain device only or using different companies to publish their apps on each platform to stop them from needing to allow cross platform ownership.

They were bred explicitly for fighting. First fighting bulls in pits, hence Pitbull. That was outlawed. It was deemed unfair to pit different animals against each other in a fight. So pitbulls were then bred to fight other dogs.

Pitbulls were killed when they wouldn’t fight, or were beat by another dog. The breeders didn’t care about them bitting humans. They wouldn’t keep them as pets as they were for fighting.

It’s an admission that running the business isn’t the point of tiktok. It’s an intelligence asset, if the intelligence asset is no longer viable there is no point operating the business.

Tesla’s autopilot isn’t the best around. It’s just the most deployed and advertised. People creating autopilot responsibly don’t beta test them with the kind of idiots that think Tesla autopilot is the best approach.

It refers to feature size, rather than component.

Macbooks, even these low spec ones tend to outlive other laptops substantially. The better build quality and higher resale value keeps them in use much longer.

The argument these devices are e-waste doesn’t make sense and doesn’t track.

Its plastic. This isn’t a joke, it’s actual plastic.

Gum traditionally comes from gum trees, but that’s expensive to grow, harvest and process.

The metric system uses a similar principle. 1 liter is a kg of water. It’s just named better.

Same account different servers would mimic discord. So you have one app, but the communities or ‘discord server’ can be their own instance. If it’s mimicking discord it will keep all the message boards private to users like discord, but it could still benefit from Lemmy/Mastodon integration. Many communities have a discord and a sub Reddit having the same account on both may be valuable to some people.

I don’t know the state of voice and video calls in the fediverse, it seems to be the main benefit of discord. Otherwise discord is just a terrible closed version of forums/subreddit/communities.

Because you could, you could argue you forgot. It’s a way to get around it. It’s easier if apple controls who fixes phones.

It’s easier to block the part checking for individual parts than the entire os. You would still have people with bricked phones once they got home and the faulty part phones home.

If apple didn’t do this their phones would be stolen at a very high rate. Especially from tourists. The phone would also get a reputation for being stolen. Or stopped working once you got home from the repair store.

Apple sells the convince of a device that works reliably. This makes it of very high value. Especially to those that don’t want to worry about their tech. So apples repair methods keep this value. If they changed their phones would be less valuable to most consumers. If this wasn’t the case then fair phone would outsell iPhones.

The phones are still repairable, but it’s restricted to apple and those apple have authorised to do it. The solution is to make repairs cheaper, not make interchangeable parts. It doesn’t work on the scale apple operates, for devices of significant value that can be pick pocketed and shipped to another country.

Many children are being radicalised by online content, like the criminal Andrew Tate becoming popular among teenagers.

Most people aren’t fact checking anything online. They are far more likely to start believing conspiracy theories or outright false narratives.
