Doesn’t this mainly affect people who might otherwise choose to end their lives but are unable to do so because of a disability or similar limitation?
this kind of freedom, once possible, is now gone.

Possibly a dumb question: How do you determine the accuracy of the most precise clock? You don’t have anything more accurate to measure it against, right?
I am curious: do people with aphantasia dream?

I wonder if they also compensate them to the highest standards.
I find myself paying for an illegal IPTV service, just so I can watch soccer from my home country while living elsewhere. I'd genuinely prefer a legal, reasonably priced option, but the only alternatives are these expensive, big-name services that insist on a set-top box. So, reluctantly, the 'less legal' route ends up being the more practical service for me.

The author themself appears to be unclear about the specific stance they are opposing. While it doesn't seem like they are strawmaning intentionally, they are arguing against positions that no reasonable person actually holds.
> For, there is clearly bound up in such arguments the assumption that those being reasoned with are free to change their minds based on the merits (or demerits) of the evidence presented.
I understand that the author is arguing sincerely, but certain statements raise concerns about whether they fully grasp the concept of determinism.
Why is it necessary to assume the existence of free will for a person to be capable of evaluating new evidence and have a subsequently revised opinion based on this new information?

I'm trying to get a clearer understanding of how relativity works. While I understand that movement is relative in terms of linear motion, I'm curious about how this applies to rotational motion. Specifically, does the absence of centrifugal force in a system indicate that there is absolutely no rotation occurring? In other words, can we use the lack of centrifugal forces as a definitive sign...

A few years back I used to use SyncThing + DecSync for that purpose, and it worked quite well. Looks like it hasn't been updated in a while though.

I think this point is addressed in the article.
I remember reading somewhere that historically, the alcohol content in beer was considerably lower (as low as 0.5% IIRC) than it is today. I'm not sure if the article takes this into account - I might have missed that detail.
Yeah, the US is one of the few exceptions.
