Lest one person out of a thousand that read this actually try the things mentioned in the article, I'd like to point out that the topics in the article such as summoning demons and dabbling in magic is ultimately not desirable.

One might anticipate a racing sequel featuring alphabet agents that glow.

This is a ridiculous caricature of women. Most women aren't spending their time building IG brands, counting lavish gifts, and petulantly demanding millionaires. This sounds like a cartoon villain or something from a reality TV show.

yes but this accurate in describing what the last couple women I was with were like. they were both women who approached me first, whatever that might tell you.

Always wondered when this, removing the path after the domain, would be put in. It's visually simpler and would probably improve the metrics recording perceived sleekness of user experience.

But removing the path would be a burden to those discovering how the web really works.

The world’s current and next innovations depend on a single country: Taiwan. It’s probably one country you might never hear about, or perhaps confuse with its neighbor, Thailand, or even think it’s a part of China.

I’ve been living in Taiwan for 3+ years, and am baffled that I never pay attention to semiconductors.

I can't imagine how baffled he's going to be when he discovers Taiwan considers itself part of China.

Also, you can't grow more than an acre of wheat for self-use legally in the US anyways.

I find this very surprising, especially considering this should vary by state (although I know this might be the kind of thing the Commerce Clause could get up into).

I can't find any information that there's a cap on wheat production in the US. Got a source?

If you're retiring with a small farm, why are you concerned about the market prices of what you're producing? You're just eating it yourself / giving it to neighbors, right?

If you intend to sell it, well the differences of economy of scale of a small farm versus a large farm and the resulting cost difference alone should have been obvious. You wouldn't have been competing well in that market either, right?

I'm confused. What is this and why is it significant? It's not an emulator, it's a port (what does that mean?) - but it doesn't necessarily run N64 games?

denying scientific results

That's exactly what scientists often do when they reproduce experiments.

"Science denial", as it comes across in this headline to the common person, conveys an appeal to authority that scientific results are not to be questioned. This inversion of the scientific method is used to give consensus to scientific results that support the status quo.

In reality, questioning scientific results has always been a necessary part of the scientific method.

I was wondering this as well. I couldn't find the thesis and for a moment I wondered if this was posted as an example of an AI-generated post.

Judging by the tweet, the archive.is admin says the lack of the EDNS data causes many problems. Maybe it increases his operating costs too?

Archive.is a free service and goes offline frequently so I'm inclined to believe he's really trying to triage the problem queue, unless I'm missing something.

YouTube also delists from search results content that details non-strawman evidence against the Apollo moon landings and videos of rockets appearing to hit the firmament, among many others. You can still find those videos with the same search terms by searching YouTube with Yandex or with a direct URL.

They also have unclear "hate speech" guidelines where they will remove videos and ban channels without specifying why.

The point is, this behavior is consistent with YouTube.

This decision was not made lightly and consisted of several other factors beyond the financial ones

Still, it’s peculiar timing for Patreon, given the company touted an increase in new memberships during the first three weeks of March.

Peculiar indeed. So what is a factor not yet mentioned?

69 days ago, I was net downvoted after pointing out specifically what trouble was coming for Patreon.

>I wonder if consumers could use forced arbitration in the same way.

They can. Patreon is about to be hit really hard for playing thought policeman.

Now we are here.

When someone asks me, "Why don't you have X insurance?"

My reply is, "Because I can do math."

Was surprised to find the article wasn't about that.

The author is a major pusher of conspiracy theories, pedophilia accusations, and the like which almost never stand up to scrutiny.

I counter your ad hominem with a substantive appeal to authority and evidence to the contrary: the author is not only a lawyer, but the one who broke open the Epstein case (pedophilia accusation conspiracy theory that stood up to scrutiny) with a Florida filing alongside the Miami Herald.
