Beware bit rot.
Granted most of those are going to be archived anyway but I wouldn't count on them being useable indefinately.

Leaning hard towards "been claiming elections have been rigged for 20 years". He was asked how he got his numbers on reddit and said "yeah it doesn't mean much without the actual counts" and handwaved the question away.
Really wish headlines would start being "One guy claims" instead of "Experts claim". But that wouldn't get as much engagement.
(if that service goes down, everyone in my house gets mad at me)
I bought a PiZero and set it up as a redundant pihole for this reason. It's slower because it's wireless, but not super noticeable since it's 'just' DNS. I have the router pointed at the main and backup all the time and if I need to do something (or break the main one messing with dockers) there's still the backup until I get the main up.
I messed around with some High Availability configs where they both had the 'same' ip but could never get it working smoothly. I just use the teleporter functionality within pihole any time I update anything to keep them in sync, which is rare.
A lot of the Old Testament this. Any translation that uses more readable language is nice. The King James version etc get too much credit for sounding religiousy.
Genesis through Deuteronomy or so are what a lot of Protestant churches at least focus on. The New Testament is Jesus' life and then a bunch of letters to various early churches about how the Religion should work.
A lot of "the rest" are the kind of fables they're talking about. Ruth, Esther, Job, Samuel, etc. The ones named after people/mythological figures, depending on your point of view/beliefs.
The author took inspiration from a WW2 book using actual accounts before, during, and after the war.
It (WWZ) really is fantastic. And the audiobook version with an all star cast is as well.
The article is correct to point out that in today’s economy, if you don’t have your parents support, you have many fewer opportunities.
That sounds more like a symptom of inequality than a driver of it. That people with sufficient family support aren't yet as under water as people without doesn't mean they're driving inequality. If anything "people with support survive better" is too basic to write an article about.
Similar to how BP popularized a personal carbon footprint to distract from systemic problems with the oil industry, focusing on the people that still manage to eke out a middle class living as "part of the problem" is like myopically studying why a particular tree hasn't burned yet during a forest fire.
Only real reason IMO is dust can collect on the seam and it's annoying to clean without taking the peel off anyway.
IDK why people get weird about it.
I figure not fixing that is 10% not knowing they could, 20% doing so would make it easier to rip stuff, 70% doing nothing costs them nothing since you're supposed to be using the Blu-ray interface anyway.
And "The Fall" was a Roman general mad his army wasn't being paid, and ignores that the capital had moved, Rome the city was still ticking along and the "Byzantine Empire" called and considered themselves Roman.
Civilization Ending and The Fall of Rome was very much a Renaissance narrative about how great they were more than actual History.
The idea of a personal "Carbon Footprint" was spread as an idea by BP in order to make people believe individual action/responsibility was more important than systemic change.
It worked really well.
Topsy was electrocuted at the request of the ASPCA because they deemed it more humane than just giving her a bunch of cyanide and hanging her.
Edison Studios, which has about as much relation to the man as Tesla Motors Inc. does their namesake, filmed the event.
The War of the Currents was a decade previous and between Edison and Westinghouse.
Edison and Tesla wrote each other friendly letters and spoke well of each other in public.
Tesla has such a weird reputation. Entertainment is not history.
