But at least you can go to old.reddit.com for a sane view.

I'm surprised Facebook's showing irrelevant ads to you. The few times I have to use Facebook the ads are so relevant that it is downright creepy. They are known for buying people purchase history from credit card company, but they

The idea is that homo sapiens sapiens (us) is not the only descendant of homo erectus, and there are genetic proofs that we interbreed with Neanderthals for example: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neanderthal_genetics

Some of us read as slowly if not slower than we speak. Also, different audio systems read at different speed. Have you tried pocket at 2 or 2.5 x? Still too slow?

Is there a dev version of silver Blue where you can install/remove package on the fly, and maybe commit and reboot once you're ready?

Why are they taxing flights rather than fuel? There's nothing wrong with "flying"! What's wrong is how they get their airspeed, namely by burning fossil fuel. Also those prices are insulting. There is no jet fuel tax in

I agree with thinner ≠ better. So where is the thinner obsession coming from? Why are they removing all the ports? Isn't it because of fashion? Functionality and esthetics do not have to be mutually exclusive, but the people designing
