Are you going to admonish the parent for contravening the flamebait and "ideological battle" guidelines? Treat the cause not the symptom!

There is little surprise that if a brain is behaving differently, that we can see differences in neurotransmitters. Like the Serotonin Hypothesis, that doesn't mean the neurotransm…

Yes? Forced labour camps and secret police organisations were pretty ubiquitous. The Tsars had The Okhrana, forced labour camps and political repression (Lenin, Trotsky and Stalin …

> Ehhh...it's not like Lenin was much better. No. Claiming this underplays how appalling Stalin was. Lenin purging Mensheviks AFAIK, meant losing party membership and maybe emigrat…

It's worth bearing in mind that the West was pretty awful too with a vast quantity of appalling crimes that our rose-tinted spectacles might like to forget because the victims were…

For IoT the one actual pain-point is that if an episode generates online discussion then I can't participate but it's mainly a complaint about the user-hostile attempt to make the …

That's basically the UK and I haven't experienced a problem with indoor air drying. I would give some basic guidelines though. It's the sort of things that you don't think you need…

Hmm. My faith in the BBC's commitment to decentralisation and open standards has been damaged by the artificial month delay they added to their podcast feeds to try and drive traff…

Students are classic bourgeoisie - often from well off families and tend to be pretty comfortable and not preoccupied by their next meal. Most student uprisings are derided for bei…

As a mountaineer, you no doubt have a wonderfully ergonomic high volume backpack that is great for a week of shopping. Two if your diet is basic meat and veg not processed food in …

> the worse the cognitive load Or maybe better the cognitive load? There are various studies that show removing white lines and navigation furniture to make junctions more of a puz…

Not really. The revolutionary class is fairly bourgeois. You basically need time, money, power and education to revolt. An oppressed underclass is already under the heel and just g…

> Now I don't even go there at all. Sounds like you could do with learning something new! My 30+ years experience doesn't matter for shit when I say... want to fix an annoyance in …

> Creatives don't naturally want to create bland and uninteresting work Hmm. I've seen a few "passion projects" that reach new heights of uninterestingness. Detach the creative fro…

Shitposting is the gimmick i.e. "something that is not serious or of real value that is used to attract people's attention or interest temporarily".

It's a pretty classic example. If anything, I'm suprised at how brazen it is. The more presentable form has two steps, the first "having faith will make you richer" and then an ine…

That type of "cool" is not the threat, becoming mainstream is. A deplatformed niche like a few dozen neo-fascists in a street-fighting gang, can be contained, but if a hateful ideo…

Oh yeah? https://liquidchurch.com/blogs/multiply-your-money > When we trust God with our finances, we open ourselves to His blessings and provision. In the story of the fishes and …

Weird that you take your ire out on teachers instead of the world they are teaching you about.

They were using a keyboard driver that treats each half of the keyboard as it's own separate chorded keyboard allowing parallel use. Pretty standard I think you'll find.

Harmful as in giving bad advice.

Everyone is very complementary so can I be allowed to be the debbie downer? As a web app, it's neat! Functionally, not a fan as yet. I've lifted for a couple of decades. I put in t…

Please no-one pay this extreme ideological crankery any note.
