I have been using TB on all operating systems with 8 or 9 users since 2006 and I never even once encountered this issue. As a software developer fixing stuff like this is only possible if you can reproduce it or otherwise get logs, telemetr

Please explain how "inevitable decline" follows from my view, cause I can't see it. If by "inevitable decline" you mean I think tribalized conflicts are a waste of human potential that are bad, I take it, but I do n

The footballification of everything. Most important is to score a point against "the other team", nevermind the world going to shit in the process. And that is 90% of the issue US culture has at the moment. You are not thinking ab

Yes theoretically. The issue if people just go to ChatGPT is that a therapist would have clear objections, caveats or other negative feedback ready on the correct situation. Most LLM chatbots go out of their way to never say a critical word

I am pretty sure most experts in the field would share your assertion that the statement ("neanderthals died out") hides complexity. Sometimes hiding complexity behind some ballpark statement can be useful tho. I teach media techn

The rotational On-Off switch for a computer is cool and provides excellent feedback, but like many stateful electromechanical input elements it has the problem that it might run out of sync with the system it controls. E.g. what if the PC i

Everybody can fall into these traps, depending on the circumstances. There are some assumptions one should be careful to make when online: 1. Assuming you know how the person thinks from a small sample of comments they made. You may have mi

Yes sure. But as someone who was a kid in the 90s all my life I learned about how climate change is the biggest challenge to humanity. Yet all my life I have seen grown adults pretend it doesn't exist, and when that was no longer avoid

Which explains why the administration has acted the way it did. What has the US become? I am not surprised by the fact that Trump is a fascist, this is a thing I knew in 2016. What surprised me is how little popular resistance he has gotten

Please amend the Wikipedia-list on the topic with sourced information if you have the strong evidence required by your extraordinary claim. In such a conflict both sides have incentives to twist reality, but since the names of the killed jo

German is my first language, but I prefer consuming English content in its original language. The thing with youtube translated titles is that half of them aren't even propper German and half of that half is utterly nonsensical, becaus

You are defending the killing of civillian journalists in a war zone using unchecked propaganda — if you make bold claims, you gotta bring the receipts as well.

Yes, only inflation is not the only thing you need to factor in. If you really want to answer the question of "are people correct in complaing about car prices?", you need to factor in how much money they have to spend on what. A

This has been one of the deadliest conflicts for journalists in history. The number of killed journalists is very safe data, since the names are known and the cause of death is typically relatively well researched. The story told by the dat
