Sure, and tell us how/if you don't care about email providers generating "interest" for commercial reasons when half of anyone's inbox is full of crap no one wants or requested.

This article gets it wrong from the start... "But whereas speech is most obviously important for communicating propositions or concepts, obtaining such knowledge, this is not the primary function of music." There's the talking drums of Native Americans, rap music, and so much more.

Great share, thank you!

Why point out the couple who paid for the surrogacy is a gay male couple? Seems like more of a dog-whistle than a valid point.

Thank you for sharing this. I work in telehealth and in the U.S. at least, most patients using these devices have no idea what data they're sharing and who they're sharing the data with.

Also ambiguous would be sympathy for this but not for the many private citizens called out publicly on social media by platform owners and government officials for the express purpose of risking those citizens' safety, especially since most citizens don't have the secret service and endless taxpayer money to protect them.

Other than comparing the sales records of two bands, concert attendance, or other numerical measures, it's hard to imagine your comment makes any sense. The Stones and REM weren't contemporaries.

Is that really analogous to one of the world's largest social media sites, especially one with AI that knows exactly what ads to serve you and your friends but not that you're dead?

I love you for this comment

Rupert Murdoch popularized tabloid news as we know it today and Fox News is a reflection of that. They were always concerned more with ratings than facts, and whoever wrote this article is full of shit because the Rupert-Fox-tabloid connection started in the 70s.

Happy for the author and some good points to consider as food for thought (however lacking in research on key points.) But reading between the lines, if the worst addiction did to him/her was dropping to 85lbs and getting kicked out of college for selling drugs, that pretty much indicates a pampered college kid who never truly worked for a habit and it gets SO much worse than that.

Thank you for this comment. The only possible negative here is "Kiwifarms itself will most likely find other infrastructure that allows them to come back online." Cloudflare supposedly being "concerned that our action may only fan the flames of this emergency" is disingenuous at best.

It's also easy to dehumanize by assuming there are 'archetypes' that can be reasonably applied to people just because they're poor or living on the street.

Most food banks in the U.S. use tolerances that go months beyond the dates on packaged and canned foods and also take into account the integrity of the cans/packages. Fresh prepared foods like bakery items are repackaged for quick redistribution. Fruits/veggies (which are a very small portion of what food banks get) are distributed according to their condition but otherwise spoil the same there as anywhere else. And larger foodbank systems distribute things to the agencies - where people who need food actually go - using these guidelines and sometimes have the same food storage methods as grocery distribution centers might. Liability is a concern, but more in the sense of distributing healthy, useful food vs lawsuits.

To disable heresy you'd need to disable personal or moral offense. But it's as unrealistic to think that could ever happen as it is to blame "the left" for reacting to the deliberate incitement and cultivation of prejudice that's so popular right now. People die because of "x-ism" and pretending "the left" are to blame is ludicrous in the worst possible way.

The influence of this cannot be overstated. George Carlin said it best... https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=u-ryuJDTpEc

There's also massive abuse by police of the tools and information provided to them for non-official purposes. Police personnel that will casually run license plate checks for friends and local businesses will abuse other tools as well.

The yes/no in some cases could allow fixed-income people to be approved when they are short of the required income or credit history because they've never had a rental problem. A lot of fixed-income seniors pay a large portion of their income to rent but have done so reliably for decades, for example.

...by showing 50% more advertisements and pretending what's relevant to Google ad clients must be relevant to users...

Great question, DJ's mix songs and this person mixed 'every possible 12 note melody combination' they could generate with code.

>Should I add “…and any other enjoyable activity”?

No because most enjoyable activities don't cause you to die or want to die when you stop them. (Or idk... maybe the potato chip marketing the really gets to some people...)

Learning to be more grateful for what you have will make selling yourself much easier.

Eating kaolin isn't common but in Georgia you can still find it for sale in local gas stations. https://www.georgiaencyclopedia.org/articles/science-medicin...

But it was a racial thing, heavily-encouraged by the losing party for years (decades actually) and with a well-documented history as such. Every U.S. Capitol police officer heard racial epithets before they were attacked on Jan 6 and racism fueled the distrust.

5 full-time jobs at 40+ weekly hours each would be 200 hours worked per week, which this person clearly does not put in.

It absolutely was and there's extensive documentation on who paid for it and how it came about.

You're being too kind, this article is woo bullshit. Addiction at its core is having lost the power of choice and recovery is finding a way to regain it. But to most people that sounds like just another choice to make - they completely don't get it.

Yeah it was so famous, no one who watches Fox News noticed she was outside the whole time.
