Yeah, I meant /g/. It felt like things really got out of hand after the 2016 election. That's when I noticed the partisan bickering really start to take over boards that had mostly avoided it before. One side felt emboldened,

I remember some years ago when I still lurked 4chan that /t/ was all about buying old thinkpads, installing Arch on them, and showing off your i3 set-up. Prices were rising then too.

What's your method for measuring that? The general personality models that I've seen really only seem to be testing for a minimum amount of self-awareness.

I'm not convinced anyone is. Full objectivity is hindered by our minds ability to guess and rationalize. Personally I find all attempts at self-knowledge are just a constant game of trying to sieve truth from rationalization, and I go

His own comments on the matter are that it come down more to a matter of politics than actual legality. At least, in the one case[1] that a record label (rather than the artist) told him no, he seemed confident that he could still have sold

The personal stake of BoD individuals is completely irrelevant, and your focus on that suggests you don't understand what "by proxy" means.

If people just don't test because they don't want to give info to the government, that's not an information gain for the government, it's just a loss for everybody else.

Is this sarcasm?

I pretty much do. It's not entirely without pause, any sort of flow state will completely usurp it, and I can definitely zone out, but both of those situations are noticeably outside the norm. Notably, when I'm my loosest and &quo

I don't see what Marissa Mayer's comments actually add to the discussion. She was obviously acting in PR mode as the CEO of a competitor. It's barely information.

Twenty years ago it was just some grainy footage that had been "sent into the studio." At least now it's usually possible to actually track down the real sources.

>Cracking down on anti-election rhetoric is an obvious net positive, and needs no further explanation. Yes, it does. Cracking down on speech would further enrage all those people, while also pissing off a great deal more. I think riots a

And yet the solution to a negative can still itself be the cause of equal or greater negatives. Hence why I was asking if you believe it is a NET gain. Because the Government cracking down on speech, even obvious lies, will erode some peopl

Do you honestly believe that Government reduction in free speech would lead to a net gain in people's trust in the process?

Democrats believe in the process so much they would rather waste four years convincing themselves a red herring is more than a fish. If they were as conniving as you have been implying, they would have either gotten results or switched tact
