I never said they’d “cancel” whatever that means.
yeah we agree suffering can be both good and bad.

you clearly have mental problems xD I was just trying to view it rationally. A path you never dare to ponder I suppose
- Comment on If suffering is good because it gives life meaning, wouldn't it follow that hurting people is good? 2 days ago:
So we agree. Suffering has both good and bad parts.
So you can’t say suffering is (always) bad, because it can have good (secondary) effects. - Comment on If suffering is good because it gives life meaning, wouldn't it follow that hurting people is good? 2 days ago:
This is basically saying too much suffering is bad (succumbing to hunger). But a little (harsh breakup) can be good.
So this doesn’t suggest suffering is bad after all. If good can come from suffering, then suffering cannot be necessary bad.
- Comment on If I wanted to bury a hard drive for archival purposes (e.g. Country becoming Dictatorship), how to keep the contents from being damaged and where is the safest place to bury it? 4 days ago:
Wut? They’re not extremely expensive, and they commonly have blue-ray capacity, so 50 GB

A so-called M-disk is rated for 1000 years. Artificial lab tests could at least ‘confirm’ a few hundred years. Amazing shit.
Add encryption to it, keep the keys safe (perhaps on another M-disk) and you’re set!

“Extracted” is usually the part that you keep so it’s clearer to say “filtered out the music” or “extracted the relevant part”

Do you have a hearing issue perhaps of is english not your first language?

Filler words?

I got banned for saying the word retard. And that’s just retarded

Aha I see. Very informative, thanks. But what are the presumable downsides of just having enters work as regular enters? I think I understand the appeal of all lines having the same width, but this can still be accomplished by just not using any enters. Right?
And having the rendering work just like the text editor, of course only adds bonus points to the overall user experience. What am I missing?

Same on Reddit but oh well im not rly there anymore

I get what you mean but it’s not a good example since this is definitely in a book/on the internet

JDownloader is the best for downloading anything from YouTube. It may also support YouTube Music
- Comment on Why do websites now prefer IP-based geolocation rather than the `Accept-Language` HTTP header? 2 months ago:
I’ve been complaining about this for years. And since the large influx of vpn use (esp US I think), I expected this to become a more pressing and widespread issue along people, leading to more urgency to fix it. But no, even google sites seem to not give a shit IIRC
- Comment on “Production” to describe multiplication? 2 months ago:
What the hell are you talking about. I corrected OP because they used the wrong word in a sentence
- Comment on “Production” to describe multiplication? 2 months ago:
Product not production
- Comment on Is it normal for people to ask where you are from online? 2 months ago:
Not blocking does not mean giving away personal information or being scammed. Yes, if people find this a hard thing to do, by all means, block them. But if you’re not incompetent and just set your boundaries, there may not be reason for an outright block, that’s what I’m saying. Again, it may very well be a slight misunderstanding
- Comment on Is it normal for people to ask where you are from online? 2 months ago:
Well maybe but if op enjoyed the conversation somewhat, blocking ‘indiscriminately’ would certainly be out of place
- Comment on Is it normal for people to ask where you are from online? 2 months ago:
Blocking out of the blue seems over the top to me. I’d rather just confront him about his behavior and see how he reacts. Maybe he just phrased it weird and didn’t mean to come off as creepy.
If not, well, then you know

God this is even worse. Feels like forced positivity

What’s with this absurd amount of depressing content. Is this a new hit?

Maybe I don’t understand? but you only see the bikini if you’re subscribed to said community, right? On whichever instance it’s being hosted, doesn’t matter?
- Comment on finally got static IP from a new ISP 3 months ago:
True that. They’re also less recognizable as an ip address. They don’t stand out
- Comment on finally got static IP from a new ISP 3 months ago:
Still kinda sad that ip6 still hasn’t taken off, that would give literally every toaster in the world its own static ip

You have no idea what ‘user friendly’ can mean for boomers. A button that says “Next” is already something that need to be talked about explicitly
