Yeah they are probably into some extremely toxic, unnatural things that cause them to secretly hate themselves. I wonder how much shady sexual shenanigans happens in the households of the top 1%? Plenty of drugs, gossip, gluttony, lust, etc

It's not society. It actually starts with the individual. In order to have nay kind of decent society, each individual needs to recognize that they are responsible for themselves and their own society. Going outside, exercising and con

Your comment is the most sensible I hav seen so far. I have seen lives utterly decimated by SSRIS. Suicides and murders caused by its side effects. Violent and suicidal tendencies are on the warning labels on many of these drugs.

What I am really interested in is they're going to disclose the targets of those first images tomorrow. So we can prep our "before and after" slides.

This article is full of unsubstantiated claims and generalities. Not to mention plenty of left-wing talking points. Global warmi--oops! I mean "climate change", etc, etc. It seems like the Economist is running point for the curren

Money is a representation of energy. If you used it like you would electricity you would be better off. Sure, store some in batteries but know that they dissipate over time. Stocks should only be purchased when you want to literally invest

How is this even remotely a good idea? People generally expect that a government agency would be sure of the information its releasing.

I think my comment was conflated with others' sentiments about Google killing their RSS reader and other products. That is not my rationale at all. My hesitance for using Google Cloud or AWS stems from my mistrust of these behemoths an

Who would trust Google with their infrastructure these days anyway? Personally I do need to work with Google services occasionally but always experience default anxiety about it.

I got the vaccine. Does that make me anti-vaxx? I'm anti-mandate for an experimental drug that is not fully understood. I am ok with the MMR and tetanus and the older traditional vaccines. They have been very rigorously tested and prov

The mRNA vaccine is not your grandpa's vaccine. This is a new and experimental technology that is not even close to being fully understood. And there is no data on very long term adverse events. The trial data will not be released by t

That's a fair point. I'll engage. My point on that is the Boiling Frog analogy. [1] We all brush our teeth (mostly) because we want to preserve their health. And we wish to avoid the pain of abscesses and the dentist's drill.

I don't see any citations in this write-up. Colds and flu also cause direct cell damage. I haven't seen any concept of "long flu" anywhere. The vaccines are not going to prevent contraction or transmission anymore. And p

Well that's a good point. I only speak English so I speak for my language. On the point of Brave vs DDG I think my main point is that Brave has its own index and DDG is based on ... Bing? ... I'm not sure. At any rate I don't

Maybe you should try an opposite approach. When kagi gives you useless results switch to Google.

I'm going to second that. Since switching off Google a couple years ago I have had fewer and fewer "failed" searches which required me to go back to Google to try the search. The more people who use Brave Search (they own the

I wonder how big the star in the image actually is without the glare and if Webb would be able to capture direct images of exoplanets. That would be truly astonishing.

This may be too meta for this forum, but I would like to point out that the brain theory as a whole has become so incomprehensibly complex that I am beginning to think that the brain has little to do with intention and memory storage . P

Is "cracking down on coordinated bs" not also censorship? How about letting people simply evaluate the information for themselves?
