HAG has the Capisco, which I've eyed. There are also kneeling chairs, they tilt the pelvis forward, they can be had cheaply, but I'd hate to buy one just to throw it out. Of course there are the ball based chairs and such. I sit s

If we use the punching metaphor, in either case one is committing an act of "violence", which I think most people would acede is negative at least in the large scheme of things.

I read somewhere that somebody did some study with god knows what methodology (people like to use current-world HG communities, not representative of ancestry) and decided that our ancestors walked about 12mi/day. That's about 3-4

I do think that's a pretty interesting point. It's a weird move to sweep under the rug. I guess you could argue that having a BMW is a choice, and it has associated stereotypes, which we can infer is sort of like joining a club. r

You're effectively switching the track to "Strangulate the whole planet with humans and their downstream effects!", very cool, or y'know any other disasterous permutation. We've already got population issues if that

Because it's the default nobody is morally implicated in electing to avoid it. There is no smothering. On the obverse side, there's a string of unavoidable consequences and complications that are unfathomable. Once such a techniqu

Gilgamesh did it first. On immortality, my thing is actually psychologically framing it were it to become a reality; it's entirely inconsistent with everything we have ever known. I think mortality has a purpose within the context of l

Imagine you're arguing with a child, "I don't want to!" says they, and you respond "Why not?", what answer comes next? "I don't like it!", perhaps "Because." I think there's a long

This left/right dichotomy has always been broken. How about a teleological spectrum assessment? I have beliefs that lie at the extremes of both ends, I've never been represented by either progressives or conservatives. It's s

The video Marvel_boy[0] posted details one of the conventions. In that case it's a subtractive process, so defacing the receipt in that case would be of no benefit, perhaps even disadvantageous. In other cases, such as tax records, it

I really like tally sticks[0]. Obscenely simple, but profoundly secure. You've got the species of wood, the unique grain, exact dimensions, the exact partnership between the two pieces, the human scrawling... This multi-dimesional iden

Actually I think I'm allergic, I get itchy and develop a rash when I cut raw tomatoes. I've talked to a few people and apparently I'm the only one this happens to. I've hated them since I was young, maybe it's a Pav

A simple explanation my friend: the unwashed masses are, with good effort, making an attempt to adopt an affectation of good taste. "This fine vegetable is an acquired taste, say they. But it is evident to anyone who can be imputed w

In the few misfortunate events I've come upon, I can relate to you, friend, that the experience can be most likened to having cold spit with curd mincing around in your mouth. Simply revolting. And the taste is no better. It is thus th

Borderline inedible, classifiable as food only insofar as they can be imbibed but certainly toxic in their capacity for repugnance alone. Culinary atrocity.

So where authoritarianism doesn't exist they're pointless because they're ineffectual symbolism? In any case it appears they should be eschewed. If something severe enough comes along people will do what needs done, I reckon.

I reckon it's a human condition issue, bare metal type shit. People, in general, simply can't possess the merits of blind trust and must be scrutinized. This striated opinion on a spectrum of trust, and in time resolution in to
