I’ve used this a lot in the past at work. I see now that it’s discontinued, but I’m sure they have a new thing in its place. tiny, easy to use, and a huge time saver.

Been doing it for almost 30 years. I still have better and more precise hearing than most.

However

Most people in the “headphones bad”-crowd fail to understand that it’s the volume and not the medium at fault. I’ve always been very afraid of permanent damage to my senses, ears and eyes in particular, so as much as I love head banging to loud music, I ensure it’s not too loud. I’m the kind of person who brings earplugs to a concert (the type that dampens the audio without distorting it). I rarely need them, but I keep them with me just in case.

Choose a side, and be sure to evaluate whether that side is based on culture, ideology, something else, because those three may not necessarily be the same.

For example, imagine a scenario where the US ended up in a war against russia over a conflict against NATO allies. One could easily imagine that Russians in Europe or the US landing on both sides of the conflict, depending on whether they are pro Putin or not.

As for china, I can imagine a similar scenario where ethnically Chinese people may be on the US side on the basis that they’re against CCP and/or Xi. Sadly, due to how the US treated people who looked foreign during past conflicts, choosing the US side may not necessarily mean that you’re safe.

It’s not hate, it is complete and utter indifference beyond whatever they need to win the next election. After that it’s simply a priority of lining the pockets if themselves and their donors. Dems aren’t that much better, but at least their virtue signaling is on the right side.

Yeah, I figure such a list would only serve as advertising reasons for VPNing past the firewall.

12ish or so, when we learned about Mussolini. It wasn’t that substantive, though, since it took quite a lot longer to learn to differentiate between fascism and Nazism.

I read somewhere that Russian rail traffic is down 10% this month. I wonder if this is why.

Can’t brain today, I have the dumb. What’s TOTP, other than that BBC show?

While I do enjoy Qi (And TIL that Bill Baley is good at running backwards… I hadn’t seen that episode), I take some of their facts with a grain of salt, as it’s primarily an entertainment show. They do tend to oversimplify and miss some nuance from time to time.

Just as an example, one such case was in regards to flight theory, where the correct answer to “how do planes fly” was “nobody knows”. While there isn’t a grand unifying theory that describes flight theory in full, we do have a lot of individual concept that describe 99.9% of how flight works. It’s like saying “nobody knows” in regards to why the earth orbits the sun on the basis that we don’t have a unifying theory between quantum field theory and gravity.

I’m not disparaging Qi, though. It’s still a fantastic show, but it’s meant to be entertaining rather than complete.

EDIT: Yes, “Qi”, not “Windows”. Ducking autocorrect.

Burnt in dedicated incinerators. Some hospitals have these as a means of disposing of tissue after surgeries.

Doubt it. Arms are used for counterbalancing the legs while running, and without arms you won’t be able to use your legs as vigorously. Otherwise the torque would cause you to turn around.

Like… 'Nilla?

The N-word, presumably

I get my drivers from Ironside, and bits from Bosch.

It is. But everyone needs a dedicated PH2. With torx, a bit set is the better approach.

Like… your favourite PH2 driver?

No, he’s currently preparing a cure. The evil version is in this universe. You just haven’t gotten around to it… Yet
