The Obama administration was praised for gathering the same information about users without their consent. Obama's campaign manager said that Facebook told them that if it was anyone else gathering that much information, they would hav

I was in kindergarten in the early 90s and it was a half day. The school had two sessions though, so half the kids had morning classes, the other half had afternoon classes.

It's not just rural towns. My dad grew up in the suburbs outside a major city, and he has similar stories of people getting drunk and destroying property in high school. The cops were just as lenient as well. He told me one time he was

I think you're right. Not building meaningful relationships with friends, family, and neighbors, is one of my biggest regrets of my 20s. It adds a lot of stress thinking how small my support system is, which prevents me from wanting to

I think another thing could be how easy it is to only interact with people who share your interests when you were raised doing it mainly online. Older coworkers have said that before the Internet became widely used, being able to find commo

I think you're the exception, not the rule. I've never done anything like what the author wrote, but being involved in mischief is something every male I know did. You can even see it in animals, where the young males try to push

This post resonates with me, but I definitely don't think it's hopeless. I'm in my early 30s, and have "no friends". There are people I would consider my friends, but as we grew up, we got adult responsiblities like

I'd heard of concatenate, but never catenate. I guess concatenate is a verb, and catenate is an adjective.

I don't know how true it is, but the reason I've heard that routine makes it seem like time goes faster is because your brain condenses similar experiences. If you have a lot of similar days, your brain will interpret them mostly

The secrets were my favorite part, it made it me feel like a kid again. There are parts of the game that you'll never see if you don't explore off the easy path. I kind of wish they told you ahead of time that those areas exist, t

That's probably similar to a lot of people. It seems like a lot of the people I've watched for years on YouTube have started significantly cutting down on the length of their videos, usually sub 10 minutes, and making the full vid

The media spin going on regarding Kenosha is crazy. If I hadn't seen the videos of what happened, I would have assumed it was a white supremacist shooting peaceful protesters, not someone who was being attacked and only shot when he co

Sounds like a similar situation to buying a house that belongs to a HOA. You pay extra to give up freedoms, but have the peace of mind that you won't have obnoxious neighbors that make your house difficult to sell.

The way the article is written is definitely trying to push a single side. For example, they mention the kid in Kenosha that killed two people, but leave out the part where he shot them because they were attacking him, which is clearly visi

Pretty much. I keep seeing people here use the multi-year police academies in Europe as an example of why they have less issues with police brutality, while at the same time saying that the police in the USA need less resources.

This shouldn't be a suprise. Some people like to pretend that higher crime rates in some areas is strictly due to higher police presence, but it's clearly not the case. I remember after the protests in Baltimore from FreddIe Gray,
