While Russia is for sure to blame for taking the final action by launching the war, let's not pretend the US hasn't been meddling in Ukraine for years across multiple administrations. I'd argue that in fact we can do somethi

Just a note, travel is pretty great now once you’re past the airline bullshit. I’ve been traveling for the last month through parts of Italy and Eastern Europe, all restrictions have been lifted and things aren’t as crowded as pre covid.

As a fan, what Perez did was one of the greatest driving feats I've ever seen and a perfect example of why F1 is a team sport- nothing wrong with that, it would be a travesty if this type of action was removed from racing. The chaos th

We understand that, but I don't think the streaming services do, or more than likely, they're chasing quarterly numbers and don't care that in a few years piracy will skyrocket- the execs would've gotten their bonuses by

The studios decided that rather than to lease (not sure if that's the right term) content to Netflix they can release their own streaming services and make more money. Disney, Paramount, Sony all have their own services and those are

Less people isn't a bad thing as long as the demographic distribution within the smaller population is healthy- meaning it is shaped like a pyramid, a wide base of young and working age people and smaller numbers of old people non-work

It was realizing I could train my mind/social abilities the same way I trained my body in the gym. In the gym, if your goal is to increase strength you build up slowly incrementing weights as you get stronger. The same idea can be ap

As soon as I hear something like “planet destroying” within the crypto context, I stop reading because that tells me the person knows nothing about the current state of crypto.

After you do it if or a while, your definition of cold changes. First it was cold during the summer, now in the summer the water doesn't feel cold at all. For me to really feel cold water (after years of doing this), it has to be wel

The difference between WW2 and post Soviet Russia was the Marshall Plan- where the US pumped incredible amounts of money to build up the post-war economies of Europe and Japan. The same didn't happen post Soviet collapse Russia, in fa

No one can tell you how to grieve. You feel what you feel, no one can argue with that. FWIW, I've always been closer to your end of the spectrum, not too visibly distraught even if I loved the person deeply.

Is there any significance to the fact that all the other messages in the thread appear to arrive instantly (same time stamp) while the message in question has a 1 min delay (the sender’s time shows 14:45, the recipient shows 14:46)?
