The countries that hold globally-critical resources need to be 'levelled up' with support that means they don't rely on those critical resources. That means we rich countries will have to start taking responsibility for what the have-nots don't have. When they are living largely hand-to-mouth, what can we expect them to do alone?

Germaine Greer, J K Rowling also, don't like the concept of transgender because I think they think it threatens, dilutes or confuses the feminist position. In a nutshell, they seem to want gender to be binary. To be clear, male to female transgenderism, feminism and lesbianism are uncomfortable bedmates when discussed in the same breathe.

Adherence to commonsense is the ailment.

With computers, you should ignore what you don't need. Every app is useful to someone.

IIRC Win 10 is being supported until 2024-25, so there's no rush.

Joigus In twenty five years, I will have possessed 14 cars. If you notice, it is from the perspective of the future and looking back.

I'm sure you will crash in some way. You may not get physically addicted but could well get habituated into being compelled to keep doing it.

Poppycock

A bureau. I can just picture those securing the curved brass tracks having them on the drop leaf door.

The raised section the threaded part stands on suggests it fits snugly into the same size groove. Maybe a sliding locking nut.

That's a neat example of emergence.

They may arise with a trigger, like a smell, piece of music etc.

Nice condescending style. I always forget to avoid issues of racism and feminism here. It always ends the same. Sorry guys, I'll stay out.

Still thinking about it, although I'm not religious.

But that's not the way it goes between more distant social relations, is it? We can all find a data point of one.

So why can't white people use it in the same context?

I find it perplexing that some/many black folk refer to themselves as "Nigga"; they aren't helping themselves if they want words like that to disappear from the 21st century lexicon. Many blacks have straight blond hair and yet call out white folk for 'blackfishing' (cultural appropriation) when they braid theirs. I read thiis morning Nicki Minaj had to defend a white co-singer for blackfishing. First thing to do is to check for hypocrisy.

I'm not sure conspiracy threads are allowed. Anyway:

I think you just need to lower the resolution of the image - downsample.

Relativity of simultaneity, I think covers that.

Who is correct? This is a current dispute between a government agency and environmental group about how best to limit the spread of fires. Who has the most compelling argument? My bias is towards the enviro position: thinning down improves the parameters for good combustion, and therefore spread.

Complexifying or simplifying, it's all evolution... and nature is blind to the results.

Good. I hope it comes to something. Another thing they do is buy all shares in the shell company of someone that owns a superyacht, say, then they own the yacht and don't have to pay tax on the sale because it's not realized for tax purposes.

Objects with mass are not allowed to reach c (light speed) because you end up with infinities of mass and energy to get there.
