Yep. Leftists are regularly fighting back against misinformation and carefully crafted narratives designed to make people believe lies even if said narrative isn’t expressly untrue.

But masses of anti-war activists and so-called leftists in the US have now decided that war isn’t so bad

Nope. War is still bad, which is why the invading country should stop or be made to stop if they won’t do so voluntarily.

Here’s a fun exercise. If a foreign hostile power invaded the area you live in, using an excuse that has enough elements of truth to not technically be a flat out lie, how much of that land should be given up to appease them?

It’s ok. Don’t feel obligated to answer. I’m certainly not coming back to this thread.

A worthwhile thing to keep in mind whether it’s for tea, supplements, or whatever, is that medication is based on things that were observed from “natural” sources.

For example, willow bark was/is/has been used for pain and inflammation. It also contains salicin which is similar to acetysalicylic acid, which you’ll know better as aspirin.

Does that mean all the things people say do a thing work? Not at all. Do some of them have varying degrees of effect of some percentage of people? Yes.

You are technically correct

The best kind of correct

This is inaccurate

Some of us aren’t under 40

I suspect something else is going on there. I made that switch years ago and haven’t found a site that doesn’t play nice with Firefox in that time.

Women breaking out of previously accepted societal norms were seducing (guys? boys? men?) into sexy parties that probably weren’t risque enough for late night skinemax but too far for PBS.

Pearls were clutched

I don’t disagree. I think if it’s an issue the users have the power to resolve it

Right, which is why I put the line after that in

I don’t get it either. Defederation is a tool just like banning or spam prevention. If it’s unused it’s pointless to have.

But you don’t ban everyone for a single offense just like to don’t defederate lightly. If you do then people will move elsewhere and the problem resolves itself

I’ve heard accounts both ways. I’m not quite old enough to have seen it new, but I’ve known people who said it was fantastic and people who said it was never better than it is now.

Shrug

It’s slow with bad pacing. There’s are things that are obviously supposed to look impressive but even if they ever did (for which there’s disagreement between the nerds old enough to remember) it absolutely did not age well. Those are the obvious ones off the top of my head without having watched it in a few years.

I guess I’ll have to give this HD director’s cut a shot but I’m pretty skeptical.

I’ll admit I haven’t seen that but it would have to be some impressive magic.

My wife has never managed to stay awake past the opening sweep around the Enterprise but I can’t say it really gets better.

I think while Insurrection and Nemesis are widely agreed as bad next gen movies I would argue they’re better than the worst original movies.

If you can’t acknowledge Motion Picture as bad I don’t know that we can have the discussion on a solid base though.

Lot of comments here with single down votes. I wonder how salty op is

Is it requiring a cell for being the 2fa piece? I don’t use GitHub but I’d be surprised if they did. There’s been plenty of options for a while now. Email, authenticators, u2f keys. You should be able to enable 2fa that will use the same data you’re using to access GitHub.

Nah. I’ve had a domain registered with them for years and I just got the email too

prosthetics and bionics are taking leaps and bounds

Heh

“The only thing good needs to do for evil to succeed is nothing”

I’m reasonably confident that every part of the inhabited world has been “lost territory” more than once.
