Just wanted to give another opinion on this topic because I think people are being overly nostalgic about radio in this thread: For as long as I can remember I have hated radio with a passion. The constant interruption of the occasional good song, the endless nonsense-talking hosts, the unfunny jokes, the annoying ads, the same songs over and over, etc. I hate radio and I’m glad it’s gone. I don’t miss it at all! Cheers A millennial

> Calling base64 encoding obfuscation

I was expecting some cool js deobfuscation tricks, so to put nicely I’ll just say that my disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.

Is it possible to change the maps' colors and contrasts now? Last time I checked I thought the lower contrast and washed-out colors compared to Organic Maps were a poor choice so I switched back to OM.

AA scraped from the poor and resells books which are already free. Now AA is rich and wants to get richer. If you don't think that is true, consider their complete lack of financial transparency.

They try hard to pretend otherwise, but AA is a for-profit enterprise.

This probably won't surprise you, but most of the time, the only variable psychologists measure during initial patient assessment is penis size, because it explains nearly every male behavior there is.

Oh how conveniently this would fit into your worldview ;)

If you had read the actual study, you would have noticed this paragraph:

the odds of owning a gun (any gun or a military-style rifle) are lower for men who are more dissatisfied with the size of their penises. In fact, each one-unit increase in penis size dissatisfaction reduces the odds of owning any gun by 11% (OR = 0.89, p < .05) and the odds of owning a military-style rifle by 20% (OR = .80, p < .01). According to Model 2 of Table 5, each one-unit increase in penis size dissatisfaction also reduces the expected count of total guns owned by 11% (IRR = 0.89, p < .01). Across outcomes, we failed to observe any associations between penis enlargement and gun ownership.

100% agree. The porn industry's harms to society cannot be overstated.

I'm sure we humans can do better than "everyone who disagrees with me politically is evil"

if you think that blusky and mastodon is less censored than X, then I'd say that we do not live in the same world indeed
