It is. We are offloading work away from our brains. After the arrival of smartphones and instant access to information, there's no need to remember anything when you can look it up instantly. Before, you'd memorize facts such as t

All I see these days is kids watching mindless youtube/tik-tok videos all day. Perhaps sending them to a farm for some movement might actually be good for them & give them a sense of accomplishment. Seize their phones before they g

There are plenty of genuine reasons. One reason off the top of my head is that you cannot pay bounties to informants for rewards if they give reliable tip-offs. You need full anonymity for that. So crime / terrorist fighting is actuall

the term "money laundering" is the anti-euphemism of "financial privacy". It's a highly successful attack on privacy. It's been drilled into our heads that privacy is bad, and it won't stop there.

UDP is used by Wireguard, for example. Quote from Wikipedia: "WireGuard uses only UDP, due to the potential disadvantages of TCP-over-TCP. Tunneling TCP over a TCP-based connection is known as "TCP-over-TCP", and doing so can

Life is probably not bad in North Korea, than the propaganda lead you to believe. Especially if you remain loyal and are a valuable asset.

The best way to describe it is that it's unfinished conflict from WW1, WW2 and the Cold War, and therefore seeing it as Russia vs the west makes sense if you look at the entire history. Quite crazy that this is still happening in 2023.

There's more. Sun is also responsible for floods, typhoons, cyclones and tornadoes. Hundreds of disasters every year. Come to think of it, energy stored in the dam is the result from the Sun evaporating water from other areas, and then
