Agreed. I hope hacker news doesn't become what reddit became. Contrary to the link, Reddit admins/mods actively police its content to be left leaning. Silencing/hiding content has the opposite intended effect on those being s

8th gen intel? You gotta be kidding me with this deprecated hardware. How much is intel paying Apple to subvert AMD?

I disagree with you on the profiles aspect. I miss two features from Android: 1. Extremely fine tuned profiles that are afforded by Tasker. 2. the much better digital assistant.

I have a good friend who tried mushrooms for the first time. He went completely psychotic. We had to call police/emt to subdue him. Ended up tied down to a gurney until he sobered up in the hospital for a couple hours. Psychedelic are
