If you use moodle, it has a plugin for that, with instructions.

If you don’t use moodle, you may want to check the instructions on the plugin anyway.

You think you are tacking ‘real’ issues with your servers, but to the average user you seem just as crazy as a guy with a basement full of beans and piss jugs, screaming about the government is watching us constantly.

The government is watching us constantly. There’s no doubt about this and if you think it’s not, you are the crazy one living in fantasy land.

At the same time, how do you think a basement full of beans would help? The entire path from “the government is bad” to “therefore I’ll have a hole full of food where I can live by myself for years” is dumb magical thinking that can be shown to not work by simply looking around or reflecting about oneself for a second.

There are many valid reasons to be concerned about a disaster. And yet nobody doing your traditional prepping for anything larger than a tornado deserves respect.

But somehow he is still old and scarred.

Ouch, I never even considered the idea of private prosecution in criminal courts. Looks like a remedy that is worse than the disease.

It doesn’t matter if there are entire battalions of lawyers looking for it. Persecutors have the monopoly on getting people charged with crimes.

The other question you can ask is: why isn’t the entire press on fire complaining about government workers committing crimes all day over all over the country?

Anything can be “pseudo”-any other thing if you apply enough pressure on the definitions.

Also, honest question: Are you cake?

It kinda is.

There exist a hierarchy of needs, it’s a subjective one but all people share a large part of it. There also exists a very objective and measurable hierarchy of production.

Interpreting that as “low-herarchy factors are X” is useless and dishonest unless X means “things we need to prioritize in a crisis”. And saying any of that comes from Marxism or any kind of communist theory is just bullshit.

At the end of the day all governments are desperately afraid of making people angry (at them), from the healthiest democracy to the most totalitarian dictatorship

One would think so. But a quick glance at Russia, or even the current US one would show you otherwise.

Most governments don’t seem to pay a lot of attention to it. Democracies tend to be the most concerned ones, but it still varies a lot.

China seems very stable to me. Their government is afraid of making people angry, and removing basic help like that is very likely to make people angry.

But also, it seems to me that the “generally” in “generally free” is doing some work. AFAIK, some care is free, some care isn’t. And the pretty good quality of life doesn’t seem to be universally distributed. Both of those seem to be improving quickly, but the “people are better than in the US” impression one may take from that comment seems to be a misrepresentation.

He’s supposed to be super-strong.

It’s a very beautiful moon. Too bad one needs a telescope to see it.

What are you doing? If we can see the cat, we will know if it died.

They [software engineers] had to be bad at their normal job.

So …

…

You didn’t notice it by now?

…

The secret is that you need proportional elections within each district. What also implies that they should be bigger…

Or, in other words, just copy Switzerland and you’ll be fine.

(Personally, I’m divided. The largest scale your election is, the most voice you give to fringe distributed groups. I can’t decide if this is good or bad.)

Sure, they can technically move the plane on regular roads too

Well, not really. Or technically, they can if they move fast enough. If they stop, wherever they are will stop being a road quickly.

And there’s that entire problem of making room for the wings. It’s one of the largest problems when designing airports.

Nah, for some reason no device puts USB3 on every port.

Well, it accomplishes breaking the standard…

And the USB3 port that you would expect to get some attention is the wrong one.

Personally, I’ve never read it. But the reason people like or dislike stories isn’t because of powers or machines in them.

Yeah, I will need an explanation on this.

Do they plan to taxi all the way to the destination? (Are those bridges clearance charts about height clearances for trucks on the kinds of bridge that passes over a road?)

Reminds me of the recent reaction to the director of the Supermen movie, and the people calling the xenophobia “barbaric”.

I mean, it’s nice when it falls back at the same meaning, but it reaching its antonym is just great.
