Individual who is not I and whom I do not know. :)

That's not hard, but what about a missing third individual that both must understand to carry on?

"Missing third individual that both must grasp to carry on."

But you still don't instill that actual individual in minds, and an actual, non-abstract, particular individual is occasionally crucial to a thought. Without that word you would basically go back to that activity in which pairs of folks try to find out a thing without using words. This is a bit of an auto-proof as I can't say its word.

It's not as if you can simply work around and pick similar words for that individual's particular noun, you miss almost all of a thought by dancing around it vs. using a fast shortcut that quickly aligns thoughts with low odds of ambiguity.

How would you talk about an unfamiliar individual known by a noun you can't say?

It's limiting in a big way. Occasionally, you can say a string of words without that symbol that flows without worry, but an individual word trips you up and brings much difficulty, as any of its obvious synonyms all contain that symbol too.

This website is slugish as hell. Every time I scroll my cpu usage jumps to ~30% and I have ~2FPS, using the latest version of Firefox. On Chrome the CPU still spikes, but it's no nearly as bad.

If you're willing to turn off JavaScript, you can have all the same content, but with silky smooth performance.

On the "downside", though, you miss out on the social media sharing buttons, and auto-loading of the next article when you get to the bottom of the page.

I wouldn't say that using a word such as "spacx" is in spirit.
