Is anyone else able to actually read the article on mobile? When I tap the link, I can’t scroll past the first paragraph without a pop-up that takes up two-thirds of the screen. Toggling reader mode in Voyager doesn’t even work, there’s no content.

EDIT: Opening it in Brave and toggling reader mode worked. I don’t understand people who run websites without wanting anybody to be able to actually read their content.

Thank you. I now understand that we’re not talking about COVID masks, which threw me for a loop given the title of this community.

The measure added language that allows people to wear “medical or surgical grade masks” to prevent spreading illnesses. It also allows law enforcement and property owners to ask someone to temporarily remove their mask for identification.

“Basically, you can wear a mask for health and safety if you’re not planning on breaking the law,” said Gaston County Republican Rep. John Torbett, one of the bill’s sponsors.

Sorry for being dense, but where is the part about masks being banned? I’m not seeing it in the screenshot. Unless the title of this post is referring to the part where a LEO can require a person to remove their mask during a traffic stop, which is not the same thing as a ban.

EDIT: Okay, I see the problem now. Thanks to @D61@hexbear.net and @JoeByeThen@hexbear.net for helping me understand.

Honest question: Why?

IMHO stack exchange is basically reddit/lemmy with hand cuffs because no threaded discussions and every other question is closed as off topic. I don’t understand what another stack exchange would buy anybody.

I guess one thing stack exchange does well is “related questions” and tagging, but… I dunno. (shrugs)

I read the article so you don’t have to.

Excerpt:

A group of 12 Republican US senators sent a letter to International Criminal Court (ICC) Chief Prosecutor Karim Khan, threatening repercussions if the court issues arrest warrants against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other officials, according a Monday report from news organization Zeteo.

The senators allege that the ICC seeks to punish “legitimate actions of self-defense,” citing Khan’s report of the “calculated cruelty” he witnessed following the October 7 attack and making clear that they find “no moral equivalence between Hamas’s terrorism and Israel’s justified response.” They claimed that the arrest warrants “would align the ICC with the largest state sponsor of terrorism.”

The signatories declared they would take any warrant issued as “not only a threat to Israel’s sovereignty but to the sovereignty of the United States.” They threaten, “Target Israel and we will target you” and that any further action will “end all American support for the ICC” and “bar [Khan] and [his] families from the United States.” It ended: “You have been warned.”

The letter, dated April 24, 2024, was signed by Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky as well as Senators Tom Cotton of Arkansas; Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee; Katie Boyd Britt of Alabama; Ted Budd of North California; Kevin Cramer of North Dakota; Ted Cruz of Texas; Bill Hagerty of Tennessee; Pete Ricketts of Nebraska; Marco Rubio and Rick Scott of Florida; and Tim Scott of South Carolina.

You don’t need to guess, you can check the history for any object in OSM.

Editing to clarify there are two places where source info might be stored. One is as a source tag on the object itself. The other is as a source on the change set in which your solar array was added.
