O+ is common, but O- is rare.

A person with O- can only receive O- blood.

The text changed in the museum refers to the origins of a specific line of Egyptian kings around 1650 BC. I think neither the history of the Philistines nor the history of the kingdom of Israel is relevant to this.

As to the question if they have the history of Palestine/Israel/Canaan/Levant somewhere else in the museum? I don’t know, but I would hope so. If not, they would have a serious knowledge gap there. That topic deserves its own space, not a footnote in the Egyptian section.

Well Levantine is the broader term, so you need it to define the more specific term Canaanite.

Apparently the panel in the museum is about the Hyksos, so 1650 - 1550 BC.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyksos

The oldest mention of the predecessor term “Peleset” is from 1150 BC. And the actual term “Palestine” appeared around the 5th century BC.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_the_name_Palestine

AFAIK it is common practice to call them Canaanites:

Thus, while “Phoenician” and “Canaanite” refer to the same culture, archaeologists and historians commonly refer to the Bronce Age pre-1200 BC Levantine peoples as Canaanites, while their Iron Age descendants, particularly those living on the coast, are referred to as Phoenicians.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canaan

the group claimed: “Applying a single name – Palestine – retrospectively to the entire region, across thousands of years, erases historical changes and creates a false impression of continuity.

It is understood that the “Palestinian descent” has been changed to read “Canaanite descent” in the Hyksos panel.

What they did is technically correct, Canaanite is the correct term for the time period. The term Palestinian did not yet exist.

BUT it is certainly no coincidence that “UK Lawyers of Israel” did request that change now.

Ah, ok I understand.

It is a replacement of SMS and MMS on cellular networks with more modern features

I have no deeper knowledge of this topic, but to me it seems like Wikipedia is disagreeing.

No one enables it to “give Google data”, they use it to get apps to work that use it as a dependency.

Well yes of course, but you are still giving away your data, regardless of intention. And a privacy feature of GrapheneOS is that it redirects location data requests to the OS by default. Thats why you have to disable it in the settings if you want Google to have this data.

RCS is neither.

AFAIK it is specifically meant as a replacement for SMS and is used with regular pre-installed SMS Apps.

But if you’re using it for privacy-from-Google purposes you probably don’t care about those.

Correct, I am not using GrapheneOS to then give my data to Google willingly. Kinda defeats the purpose I would say. I think it is the right thing that this is blocked by default and you have to actively turn it on. (Edit: I am assuming that you are talking about the fact that location data gets redirected to GrapheneOS by default, which can be changed in settings)

also RCS

Is this a country-specific topic? I don’t know anybody who still uses SMS/MMS to communicate. Everybody uses WhatsApp or Signal where I am.

As someone who uses GrapheneOS with sandboxed GooglePlay on his only smartphone (with daily usage for years at this point): I don’t know what kind of adjustment you are referring to. I never had to adjust to anything, because I never encountered anything that GrapheneOS couldn’t do that stock Android could. Follow the installation process and after that the phone behaves like a regular phone, except you have way more options regarding security and privacy.

Is your friend trying to use GrapheneOS without any Google services maybe?

Until they get forced to implement an off-switch, you can block them with uBlock Origin in the meantime.

Despite commonly using the term “GPS”, people are usually not using GPS directly, but GNSS, which includes satellite systems from USA (GPS), Russia (GLONASS), China (BDS) and the EU (Galileo). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satellite_navigation

That is the reason why i like playing as the poles in the Definitive Edition. 3x3 mill.

Are you using the Summit App by any chance? If yes, the workaround is: Settings > Misc > Client user-agent. Choose “Use test user agent”.

When it comes to counts of Russian losses provided by the Armed Forces of Ukraine (like here), Wikipedia has the following note:

[g]Including killed, captured, missing and wounded. Possibility of double-counting, as some soldiers could have been counted two or three times: as wounded, as captured, and then as killed.[100]

You make it sound like there are not also multiple subsidies programs directly for organic farmers.

Bei den Datenmengen die jede Sekunde durch LLMs fließen glaube ich nicht dass die Arbeit des Erfinders die Aufmerksamkeit irgendeines Menschen erregt hat.

Je nachdem, was für eine KI benutzt wurde, sind die Daten aber auch rückwirkend für den KI-Anbieter greifbar. Dann müsste die Firma nur ihre Datenbanken nach den Interaktionen mit dem Erfinder durchsuchen und hätte alle Infos die sie braucht. Und wenn die Firma es kann, können es auch die Geheimdienste.

Gegen den angeklagten Beamten wurde neben den strafrechtlichen Ermittlungen ein Disziplinarverfahren durch das Polizeipräsidium Mannheim eingeleitet.

Ich finde das hier ist noch relevant. Er ist zwar strafrechtlich freigesprochen, aber das heißt noch nicht, dass es keine Konsequenzen geben muss. Zwei andere Polizisten haben gegen ihn ausgesagt.

My whole family decided many years ago that nobody should expect gifts at christmas (children still got some toys but everybody grew up since) and it increased everybody’s enjoyment of christmas greatly. Nobody has to waste time trying to get stuff for people that already have everything they need and run around in stores and tick off lists. We just come together and have a good time.

You can just say no to the commercialisation and enjoy christmas as it is actually meant to be.
