Unsatisfied niche btw.. There is effectively no dating app for kinksters, but a lot of people are into kink.
Idk. No one I knew was an outspoken racist in school. Especially these days, teenagers seem to be very aware of these issues. Regardless, it’s not the only thing pointed out here. With the original comment it paints a…
This article rubs me the wrong way. The headline isn’t well supported by its content, as the article drifts off to cheery picking counter arguments debunking lab-origin conspiracy theories. And a whole lot of…
"Single-use" may have been the wrong expression. I meant, I needed something that could break, be stolen, or tempered with at the airport, without me losing trust/access to my main work/digital life tool, and without me…
Standing desk doesn't help with the viewing angle and neck strain. Your upper body should be exactly the same as sitting well adjusted.
Keyboard is unmatched indeed, but my nipple mechanic is worn now and the trackpad is atrocious. I am not defending this machine, it is 10 years old, the CPU is a major limitation now. I bought it refurbished for 240€ in…
Jeez, I explicitly stated my comment was about "snappiness" only. Sure you can move the goalpost, if it makes you happy, but I am not trying to argue a 10 year old Thinkpad, or any laptop that age, is nicer than a…
Lol. That's what I thought as well, but I couldn't really spell it. The reference fits perfectly.
Maybe. At least I can not switch off easily and those stories stay with me. I also don't like horror movies. Maybe it's more pleasant, or enjoyable, when you feel differently, or "less".
But would you agree, you don't need that story over and over dressed up differently? Some people have read/seen more than one of those stories. Man's search for arbitrary meaning (through suffering and such). I think…
> You can't escape sadness. Life is fundamentally about suffering. Yeah, no shit. That's why I try to not invite it unnecessarily. > I think people seek these stories because it helps them deal with their own sadness. I…
That's terrible ergonomics and you will grow a hunch. One day you will notice in the mirror and your consequent attempts to straighten your neck will fail. Laptops are such a legacy format, we only endure because we're…
I have a ten year old X220 with an SSD upgrade.... I don't have to wait for anything really, either. Don't get me wrong, I know there is a difference, but... is it a 2000$ difference? This is about snappiness only, I…
For real. Tho, if organ donations were opt-out, or even no choice, and the infrastructure to match demand and supply would scale (it does not at the moment), we wouldn't need artificial organs to give this poor man this…
I think that depth has been more widely recognized in neuro-biology before, but has fallen from grace in favor of a naive mechanistic enthusiasm at the beginning of that early neuroimagining euphoria. You may look into…
True or not, great read and interesting idea. The concept of “flattening an energy landscape” resonates a lot with me. I feel like the filter on which internal and external impressions make it into the consciousness…
Possibly a heavy selection bias, don't you think? Shrooms are illegal almost everywhere, or at least not very popular. I assume there is a very significant filter on which type of personalities seek these experiences…
Also, maybe report back, if you don't mind. Would love to get a reality check, if it's just another fiction of self-improvement, or if others see the usefulness, as well.
> there is only one reason the media rejected the lab-leak hypothesis - it was forwarded by Trump Nonsense. There is media outside the US, and no one really cared about that. The problem has been that literally no one…
You seriously underestimate the complexity of genetics and ontogenesis.
> For example today we can already predict the color of the eyes and other phenotype from the DNA. We could even do that, without knowing anything about DNA at all. Or predict tomorrows weather without satellites and…
I think you would have to two scenarios at hand: 1. A completely genetically determined disease; a rare 100%-going-to-happen deal. (Which you would probably know about already, because your mother, or grandfather died…
So, for about 1000$ I can sequence my DNA at home without giving the data away?
The argument was about "free-market" insurance contracts tho.
Yes, of course there is. Just like any other medical sample you have ever given. Blood, stool, urine, swaps... But also all the unintentional donations: Every pubic hair you lost on the toilet seat, every tampon you…
