And when you don’t know what 80:20 rule means, that’s when Wikipedia comes to the rescue.
The Pareto principle (also known as the 80:20 rule, the law of the vital few and the principle of factor sparsity[1][2]) states that, for many outcomes, roughly 80% of consequences come from 20% of causes (the “vital few”).[1]

In law, a minor is someone under a certain age, usually the age of majority, which demarcates an underage individual from legal adulthood. The age of majority depends upon jurisdiction and application, but it is commonly between 18 and 21.

They were children. There is no need to adultify minors here.

Because of the sensitive nature of its business, the court is a “secret court” meaning its hearings are closed to the public. While records of the proceedings are kept, they also are unavailable to the public, although copies of some records with classified information redacted have been made public.

JD Vance accuses EU of ‘interference’ as he performs interference.
Every accusation is a confession.
Maybe in the 90s/early 00s, certainly not now.
Almost every pub offers mocktails and “blue” beer (ie alcohol free) now because the demand for alcohol has plummeted. There’s even entirely alcohol free night clubs in some cities. Although I think they’re more of a trendy gimmick, they’re only possible because of a lack of demand for alcohol.
Complaining about downvotes? That’s a downvotable offense.
12·21 days agoThe protest was in response to Tommy Robinson’s “unite the kingdom” rally in September, when 110,000 people marched through central London.
The event was supported by a wide range of celebrities, including the actors Christopher Eccleston, David Harewood, Lenny Henry, Steve Coogan, Toby Jones, Lolly Adefope and Maxine Peake, the musicians Paloma Faith, Charlotte Church, Brian Eno and Beverley Knight, and the comedian James Acaster.
I didn’t know these celebrities supported Tommy Robinson! /s
What a terrible order of phrasing from an international newspaper.
4·21 days agoThank you for the sources. However, from your own source Mint appears to be fine. Ubuntu, agreed, isn’t worth touching but Mint seems to remove the problems with Ubuntu.
4 If you are a desktop user who values control and simplicity — consider migrating: Linux Mint, Pop!_OS, Fedora, and Debian all offer compelling alternatives without Snap’s structural issues. The migration cost is real but one-time; the ongoing friction of managing Snap on Ubuntu compounds with every package and every update.
5 If you recommend distros to others — update your recommendation: Developers who previously defaulted to “just install Ubuntu” when helping friends or onboarding team members should now give this advice more thought. Linux Mint in particular offers a nearly identical user experience to Ubuntu’s classic desktop with none of the Snap-related friction.

Do you mean this RHCP?..
Kiedis acknowledges in his autobiography Scar Tissue that he
had sexual relations withraped a 14-year-old girl when he was 23, before and after learning of her age, in the 1980s. This inspired him to write the song “Catholic School Girls Rule”.[121]
Kiedis had a relationship with actress Ione Skye in the late 1980s starting when he was 24 and she was 16.
What took place then?
I looked at their website and there’s many things going on, none of which correlated with this exact date.
Memes like this are stupid if they’re not backed up with information or sources.
Possibly the 12th January one?
