   Instagram advertising was what finally drove me off the platform. An unstoppable tidal wave of poorly-targeted products including cheap sunglasses, bizarre "on-trend" t-shirts and other assorted crap by brands that sounded like th

   I think you might be trying to "talk to" the wrong kind (or a very specific kind) of people if they'll only engage with you after receiving some social proof via Instagram. In my anecdotal experience, I've never heard of

   Linked article from the OP: https://www.jpost.com/HEALTH-SCIENCE/A-cure-for-cancer-Israe... More detail in that, but still nothing more than an interview with the the scientists who claim to have developed the "cu

   I very much doubt Scotsmen are the target audience for this article. And the subject matter doesn't focus exclusively on Scotland, either.

   I second this. I was taken to a whole host of frankly terrible sites, most of which were broken or even suspicious looking.

   That's a good point. I didn't consider that. It was my mistake to simply take that as criticism/negativity of the NHS.

   You seem to be getting downvotes, but the NHS did issue guidelines suggesting that British people increase their vitamin D intake or supplement it: https://www.nhs.uk/news/food-and-diet/the-new-guidelines-on-...

    No, agreed. The NHS is very popular amongst the majority: - Seventy-seven per cent of the public believe the NHS should be maintained in its current form. This level of support has remained consistent over almost two decades despite widespr

    I've not suffered from this first-hand, but I've definitely seen it happen to other people - either bizarre, almost frat-like hazing, or the sly glances as you mention takes place at some tech events/socials when someone says

    I'm not sure the shaming or even the people is the biggest issue with alcoholism and the issues raised in the article. It's more the almost overwhelming temptation - the need, even - to consume alcohol. It's not an issue I fa

    You're clearly not an alcoholic, therefore I'm sure it is easy. For some, alcoholism is considered to be a chronic brain disease where just ordering something else isn't as easy as it sounds.

    Loved the writing style in this. It pulled me along at a decent clip, kept me interested right to the end - and that’s something I never thought I’d say about monster trucks.

    Can’t say I’m massively surprised a mainstream metal band behaves like a business. Shame they come across like a bunch of jerks.

    Thank you for finally providing some statistics to back up your ad hominen attacks on the populace who smoke. It's interesting to see those additional statistics.

    60mg of nicotine is lethal for a human weighing 150 pounds[0]. You're presenting a strawman argument by comparing it to water. [0]: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3880486/

    An entire country? 11% of adults in Norway still smoke daily, while 12% used snus daily in 2017[0]. In 2015, 22% of adults in Norway smoked, while 14% used smokeless tobacco e.g. snus[1]. Are you classifying ~525,000 people as being from th

    This is't a comment on his ideas or philosophy, as that will just descend into a total garbage fire, but I found 12 Rules For Life an absolute mess to read. Peterson badly needs an editor who will whip his writing into shape.

    Thanks for the reply, very useful. I have an SDR dongle around somewhere already I think. Are there any entry-level (price wise) handhelds you'd recommend? It's not always hugely easy to carry my laptop around with me sometimes.

    Are those cheap Baofeng radios decent? Was considering getting into this and using one of those as a starting point (to listen at first, obviously, not broadcast until I've got a licence.)
