I like to ask a variety of questions, sometimes silly, serious, and/or strange. Never asking in an attempt to pester or "just asking questions" stuff.
I'm generally curious and/or trying to get a sense of people's views.
In the case of children, isn't some of this on the parents involved as well? Have the parents of affected children talked to each other about it and reached out to the parents of the bullies to ask if they know their child's been bullying or however one might go about that conversation?
That said, Apple's certainly in the wrong in taking advantage of this, and in many ways it's no surprise. They're essentially a luxury brand, whose entire business model is exploiting this kind of behavior of social pressure and buying specific products to better fit into a group.
Has anyone tried making a spinning wheel of people associated with communities looking to change moderators and letting it determine who takes on the responsibilities?
Not sure what you mean exactly by a classic style of typewriting [...]
Oh! Whoops, I think I meant to write "classic style of typing" there. Appreciate the pointers & reply! I'll have to look into mineral spirits, not familiar with those
User friendly guides for understanding Windows/MacOS/Linux system error logs?
While sometimes logs aren't too difficult to follow, there's also often times they're inscrutable to those not in the weeds of their respective OS. So I was wondering if anyone around here might have some pointers to guides or the like for where to find, and help understanding, different system error logs.
On Windows there's Event Viewer to some extent, and on Linux I think it's typically /var/log (and some distros may have a GUI System Log Viewer?). Not sure of MacOS.
Thanks in advance for any replies with pointers to resources!
I had been publishing articles on my own website since 2003, but I did that mostly manually by writing whole HTML pages.
Huh, so literally raw html? I know it's not too difficult, but I have wondered occasionally how many small websites may have been written that way.
Appreciate the reply! It's a cool way to view it in individual terms. I was thinking in more social terms, however, which I've been a little fascinated to find seems to be a little atypical from the replies so far.
This does seem to come closer to what I was wondering about when I originally posted, good eye!
OP asks the real life equivalent of being AFK which, assuming you’re normally regularly online, only really corresponds to being high or sleeping.
The funny thing is, it didn't occur to me how vague my question was until after I posted and started seeing the replies. That's made it more fun tbh, and interesting as in this context (online vs. in real life) I've not really thought of being online in such individualistic terms as this and some other replies suggest.
Is there something mystical to this?
If shareholders and executives are demanding so much money, shouldn't they be the optimal target for cuts to maximize profitability of the business? 🤔
Does ffmpeg work best standing? Or is it better spread out? Did it work properly if it finished fast?
Oh hey, going there reminded me at some point I'd found this and bookmarked it but haven't tried it yet, so thanks for the reminder! I should finally give it a try.
Second, as a disposable, dead layer, it also provides protection against UV light and such. We don’t think of living out of water under the direct radiation from the sun as being particularly difficult or the environment harsh, because we casually do it every day, but it was a very hard problem for life to solve.
Oh yeah, that's a good point! I'd typically be more concerned with the drying out part for a lot of aquatic life, forgetting about the UV exposure issues.
Huh, thanks for the detailed reply! I suspected some of them must have something extra going on to help their time in the water, but wouldn't have thought this!
Were you able to feel how dry the otter was through the sealed fur, or was it sealed enough that you couldn't really tell?
I was looking for a word that might immediately resolve questions regarding how it might work and the like, to avoid those follow-up questions and free people up to answer however they imagine it would work. It's...Kinda worked? Aside from a few replies like this, which I don't mind, I just wanted to encourage people to roll with it as they will
duplicate duplicate, unless there's something you'd prefer with multiplidicity
Only an existential crisis? What about existential crises?
Oh! Hey, it is cool! Sorry to have rained on that, it was a fault in how I was reading it more than the way you wrote it, I think
What are some user friendly LAN text messengers for mobile/PC?
Not really from a privacy concern, that's simply a bonus, more of a reliability/convenience interest. Even if internet/mobile internet is out for some reason, being able to easily text across local network would be nice.
For Windows/Android mainly, but crossplatform tools that include those are great too!
[International] How do you go about your job searches?
The [International] tag is meant to be broadly inclusive, for those wondering, as I'm interested in this subject from all nationalities/continents. I'm guessing the methods may be somewhat similar, but never know how they might be better elsewhere till you ask!
Like The Animatrix? Have you watched Robot Carnival?

Why don't more filtering systems enable sorting by least viewed/visited, including for older pages/material?
Sometimes what I'm interested in may be more specific or niche, but a lot of search engines and filtering systems don't seem to provide a way to drill down to those results. What may be some reasons behind that?
Or am I overlooking some obvious ways to search/filter this way?
Like the classic game Rogue? Have you played Brogue Community Edition?

> Brogue's a more up to date spin on the classic game Rogue, with some slight modern touches to make it more approachable to newcomers while keeping to the spirit of the original.

Where to find online communities of people making stuff mainly as a hobby?
Stuff could be anything, digital or physical, but the idea is of discussing and doing it as a hobby without any pressure or push to make it a business or side-gig. Nothing against that, simply that communities/groups with that atmosphere are easy enough to find as-is.
Does sociology extend to other social animals besides humans?
If sociology's exclusive to humans, then what might be the field of other social animal research?
Would it be better or worse if cross-posts joined their comments from their different communities?
Cross-posting has struck me as a little strange and I think maybe this is a part of it.
Doesn't it benefit larger communities more than smaller ones by keeping the activity in a larger one, since they can comment there rather than go to the smaller community? 🤔
