    That's what I thought too, but the difference is big. You'd think you maybe lose some color lights, or very bright flowers, but no, colors outside sRGB are common. There was nothin…

    Let's add an example to illustrate the difference: Let's say that there is a correlation between the number of flights between London and New York, and the prices of sulfur. The co…

    How about the delayed electrification in Britain? It seems that elswhere it began in the late 1870s, but there was no major electrification in Britain before the 20th century. I th…

    I've been posting it repeatedly, but my posts are getting downvoted, and flagged (hidden). It apears it only goes to back to the 19th century, and may be connected with the case of…

    You need to understand that the power structure of the western society critically depends on the myth of the recent cognitive shift. Where people were little more than animals, unt…

    There is no such a thing as the Overton window. It's a made up term created by insane people who can't perceive reality, and don't understand that valid opinions are restricted by …
