The fact that much of the US and similar places around the world are scaled for car travel means this comparison between living with a car and without a car in such a locale is completely distorted. That is, yeah, I think it's the Midw

Not OP but I have tried to get along with it several times and every time, it dried my skin out so bad that I would itch, crack, and bleed. Leaves everything "squeaking" like Ivory soap, which I also don't like. I will use it

I feel your frustration but I don't think I want a Wikipedia with secret citations and an editor voucher system. Such a scheme would not be in the spirit of Wikipedia, which is nominally supposed to be verifiable and editable by any re

The person you responded to mentioned all-cause mortality. Remove the base rate, then you're left with excess deaths. How do you explain excess deaths if they are not covid? And that's not to say an explanation other than covid is

I won't argue against the value of a native slide toggle, but they have different semantics compared to a checkbox, in my opinion, and you shouldn't use a slide everywhere you had used a checkbox. Slide toggles would be completely

I've been a Windows user all my computer-using life but a couple of months ago, I switched to Linux. I was feeling harassed by Windows; you must log in with your Microsoft account to do this or that, ignoring my default browser and ope

Not if there is a rasterization step in the process. That's essentially what printing and scanning achieves, rasterization, and we can do that without the printer and scanner. Of course, the artifacts introduced by printing and scannin

I'd say the implied request for help or at least ideas for troubleshooting or alternatives is so obvious and natural that it doesn't merit this level of suspicion about ulterior motives. It's completely normal to say "I

It's always a little frustrating to me to see this framed as some very recent thing to do with Twitter or whatever. People have always folded beliefs into their identities and felt embarrassed or defensive when they are challenged. Mos

It isn't new and it isn't going away. Employers have always exercised discretion in dismissing employees, and they especially exercise it for high-profile ambassador-like figures in the company. Public outcry (also not new), possi

If it helps, these documents were not written down by the authors but by a professional scribe whose job it was to write a beautiful page, or to keep trying until it was just so. The handwriting in historical letters, while still often beau
