I heard about a similar trick once in the framework of a scam, which may be the same (I'm not willing to watch this much youtube for the payoff), where out of the 1,000 people that reached out for answers to a 50/50 bet of some so

I think that they’re saying that the concept of a social contract does not refer to a literal contract or legal document, or document of any kind, but rather simply a way of treating each other implicit in society. Notably neither the Const

I heard about this. The famous celebrity chef, someone everyone here has heard of, traveled all the way to Sardinia to learn the intricate technique known by only three women, who presumably have spent a lifetime learning this technique. Af

Yes. This was more like continuously jerking my weight backwards with all my might while holding a front corner to maneuver the TV inch by inch into a diagonal orientation, until on the last jerk it went an inch too far.

As a child in the early 90s (maybe 1993), I nearly got crushed under one of these trying to connect my Nintendo to the AV cables on the back. It was against the wall in an alcove and the only way to access was to rotate it slightly and lean

I’ve found that the rise of Apply Pay as a payment mechanism on random sites has been helpful in getting me off of Amazon. Often it’s just as easy to order something direct if they have Apple Pay (or ShopPay, but I have other issues with th

I don’t know in this case specifically. In the typical case though I’ve seen corporate charters enhance fiduciary duties, I’ve seen them specify auction procedures, I’ve seen them give certain classes certain rights, and most importantly fo

Yep! This is all correct. The point remains, however, that Delaware law does have a substantial amount to do with bankruptcy proceedings in Delaware, which is really the point I was responding to.

They typically file in the United States Court for the District of Delaware, a federal court located in Delaware. Delaware law plays a significant part in these cases even though they’re in Fed court. Corporate charters, filings, fiduciary

The creditors agreed to and supported the Global Tetrahedron plan to purchase Infowars and settle the bankruptcy. Seems like the judge is overstepping given Delaware law on this matter.

People do blame the politicians, but they rightly also blame anyone who has a hand in and nexus to furthering the rotten system. CEOs, AI algorithms people who write algorithms to deny coverage, software developers who ship it to production

The WiFi board unfortunately lacks the polish that the rest of the unit has. It’s like minimally attaching a bare raspberry pi to your Flipper in the most awkward way possible. They really should have built this in, particularly considering

I tried Thunderbird for a while recently. Maybe 2-3 years, my only desktop email client, mostly because everyone talks highly about it. However, I ended up going back to the regular Apple mail, which has its flaws but I still find substanti

This is awesome and very historic. I’m hoping it ends up in a glass case at Meta HQ though so many people can appreciate it rather than in a closet in Palo Alto.

Wow, you're right. Every link I follow on the posted article leads me into a fascinating wasteland of other articles from the site, each better than the last. This is some extremely high quality content.

Looking at the list of removed stories makes me really happy with the moderators here. They're all sensationalist, advertising for some company, clickbait, way off topic, or some combination of above. In fact, I don't see a single

Can you share a source for your summary? It's not in the link you provided and I don't see anything searching Peter's site directly on point (though may be contained in podcast episodes or something).
