Hi, not well educated on the details of VPNs and network security so this may be a basic question, but - VPNs are used regularly by corporates to enable secure intranet access to p…

Yep, same experience here. The name is a big problem.

There's a major difference of scale. No individual human artist can reliably learn to copy every other artists' styles, and then produce infinite works in those styles.

This particular misspelling happens often enough (on this forum) that I don't think it's unreasonable to think that some people are doing it intentionally as a form of trolling.

I work for a company whose primary product is an extension. From my experience it's quite random; sometimes an update will pass 'review' a few hours after submission (never a few m…

Yes it is, and extensions for Brave are installed through the Chrome Web Store, as are extensions for other chromium based browsers like Edge. There's no escaping the manifest v3 e…

Australia tried something similar with a carbon tax a few years ago - not for fuel, but for carbon emissions generally. The policy was very well designed and ensured that lower inc…

Hi, I appreciated your article. Do you know when Agave was introduced to India? Perhaps a timeline may assist with determining the identity of the food, since Agaves are from centr…

> They have a very nice looking website. Take a look at the chocolate finder: https://theochocolate.com/chocolate-finder . It tells you to input a "postal code" which to most means…

ICEs might be incremental, but its a long enough increment that it is having severely detrimental effects on planetary and human health, so I'm not sure if it counts. Cars, on the …

You're right about the language, but the mechanism is real The evolution of gaseous defense hormones in plants is thought to actually benefit the same plant, but has a side effect …

I'm from a different country, so I get exposure to different media sources, but from my position, this sounds very strange. The media has been absolutely complicit in enabling Trum…

Even when not traveling, for people with 'unusual' names it's not uncommon to use a more easily recognisable 'cafe name' to get around this issue.

They may just be being blocked at the DNS level by your ISP. This is relatively easy to bypass by using one of the many other DNS services available like 9.9.9.9 or 1.1.1.1 (I'm su…

Farmland is a good place to put it because rock dust is also high in phosphorous and other minerals and for that reason is often used anyway as a fertiliser, particularly in organi…

It's not classic trolley problem, because there are no second order effects modeled in the trolley problem. In this case, there is a secondary effect which is that the public reali…

Thanks, I had the same issue - and only figured it out because this comment came up in Google results for the error message.

Although this is a great piece of public art, it's worth noting that the pollution they refer to is really only particulate matter, with some effect on nitrogen oxides. These mosse…

No, its not just an oversimplification. It's entirely incorrect. Most psychedelic drugs are very low in toxicity, to the extent that they can accurately be called non toxic.

Except gun ranges are not just liberally sprinkled throughout cities, making it difficult to leave the house without having to move through one.

With regard to 2CB and 2CE - This might be somewhat true in some local markets, but it seems very unlikely to be widespread, at least with experienced drug users, because the dose …

Elsewhere in this discussion someone who deals with these samples has said that the scotch tape is a problem for the lab technicians.

It seems likely the person you are replying to has english as a non-first language and may be using this phrase incorrectly.
