Are you sure about that?What exactly is this thread about? The Apricity? The Israel-Palestine conflict? Or is it the 78546984th thread about the Albanians? The Apricity is a moron sewer, a place where people with an inferiority complex go to feel good about themselves by trying to make others feel inferior. By the way, you can still condemn the terrorist attack committed by Hamas and take a fact-based position on the entire conflict. The Albanians in Kosovo never went through the oppression that the Palestinians suffer under Israeli occupation. Hamas is a terrorist organisation that deserved to be crushed but there is no excuse for the treatment of the Palestinians. Like I said, it is possible to take a rational, fact-based position that condemns all atrocities, that values all human lives equally and that wishes for a way out of this never-ending madness. Is there one topic that you don't end up making about yourselves? How is Kosovo related to this? Or Russia? The war in Ukraine didn't break out just like that. It is a clash of major powers who pursue their geopolitical interests by extending their influence or standing their ground in what they think is their backyard. Nothing new in world history. Grow up.
A forum that definitely should be avoided if you want to save yourself a lot of head ache and pain .
https://www.theapricity.com/forum/showthread.php?377528-New-Israel-vs-Palestine-thread , here we have a classic example of a nut job where he, and some others, try to justify the crimes committed by Palestinians or claim it is propaganda , in some of his other posts in other threads he tries to argue Russia = good, NATO = Bad based on nothing although it was shown to him that Russia is pretty much a terrorist / crime state that hasnt changed government in 20 years and political oppositions have been murdered.
Also cherrypicks some KLA crimes, who were still defending a territory majority inhabited by Albanians, and although the other side committed majority of the crimes on majority Albanians he claims it's all ''muh people'' talk, then goes on to claim the Albanians in Yugoslavia were never oppressed but defends Hamas and Palestinians who literally record their own crimes.
This is one of the most annoying forums that I have ever seen with some of the most nonsensical members ever.
Indeed, G25 is merely a derivative of SMARTPCA, which creates a calculator that is similar to qpAdm, but is missing extremely important functions of testing statistical robustness. Which is why the results may sometimes emulate qpAdm, but there's no way to tell if there are massive standard error, or if it is overfitting. No way to run qpwave to determine if the components form a clade or not. etc.Excuse my language, but their G25 calculators are really shitty too.

This in my opinion has done, and continues to do great damage to the discourse of aDNA. Because people are able to invent pseudo-scientific narratives with models that would fail spectacularly when using professional tools.
It’s only good for Iron Age modeling in single-ethnicity individuals. Qpadm is also addicting, every time I get a P value of 0.9 my eyes light up.Indeed, G25 is merely a derivative of SMARTPCA, which creates a calculator that is similar to qpAdm, but is missing extremely important functions of testing statistical robustness.
