You should have done more homework since you are an adult and still mix up “lose” and “loose”

You can view sunspots with just a cardboard box!

It seriously makes me sick what reddit has become. I'm convinced it is 99% bots at this point.

"wearing leather harnesses and chaining each other up" is a bit different than just wearing a leather harness in public. But also how hard is it to just be civilized when you're in public? I don't need you to wear a suit and tie, but at least have some decency.

First line in the article "Objective reality exists." Does it? I'd say even that is a contentious statement in the realm of philosophy.
But regardless, if there is such a thing as objective reality, it is trivial to prove that our perception of the world is poor mimicry of the real thing, perhaps someone could make some allegory involving shadows on the wall of cave?

I remember thinking "why the hell would I want voice control on my tv remote?" And truth be told, it's actually really convenient the 2 or 3 times I watch tv in a year. Of course any modern convenience nowadays means someone is probably spying on you because of it.

My bet would be that a surprisingly large number of psychology studies are completely irreproducible. I'm even skeptical of a lot of fMRI experiments. Meta-analyses certainly can give a bit better insight, but have their own problems.

Seconded. I just don't read medium articles anymore, same goes for any site that makes me login. That ain't the internet I want so I don't support it

Maybe if Mozilla spend some of that google cash on making the browser better instead of lining the pockets of the execs and pushing for social issues they could at least retain some semblance of a user base.

Is it legal to force this before the vaccines are officially approved by the FDA? Or rather, will we see an eventual legal battle about this?
Re:How to spot a good fake ID

Has anyone ever looked into the real effect laws like these this have? It's never really bothered me having to produce ID, but after thinking about it, I am curious as to how much these laws really help.
