Marijuana can also cause vivid recollection of forgotten memories. In my experience it's closer to reliving a moment than remembering; overall a very interesting experience.

From what we've been told, Greenwald has a giant cache of classified documents, and the people who actually know say this is the tip of the iceberg. I highly doubt he's shown all his cards yet, if only to milk this story as long as possible. Personally, my money is on another bombshell this Friday.

So what if you use something like a Russian VPN or Tor? It seems like that would only be vulnerable to attacks based on exact connection times and to traffic volume analysis, both of which could be avoided by generating fake traffic.

"White middle/upper class" are statistically much less likely to be personally affected by these prison policies. Nothing about Weev's treatment is unusual; it's just that nobody cares when it happens to "normal criminals" who are disproportionately not white or rich.

Humans are likely to ignore a problem that doesn't affect anyone they know or identify with.

I believe the differentiation is that Skype routes calls p2p by default, so wiretapping them is hard. It may be possible for Skype to record calls, but only when it's routed through Supernodes - a mode usually reserved for when firewalls prevent a p2p connection.

Call metadata like to/from, time, and call length are stored - as is all text.

Wifi authentication frames aren't encrypted, so you can craft bogus de-auth packets to disconnect clients. This has a lot of uses - you can DoS a client indefinitely, force them to reveal a hidden access point when reconnecting, or force them to disconnect and then reconnect to a rogue access point.

new standards encrypt management frames, though.

FTA: 'Loneliness “is not synonymous with being alone, nor does being with others guarantee protection from feelings of loneliness,” writes John Cacioppo, the leading psychologist on the subject. Cacioppo privileges the emotion over the social fact because—remarkably—he’s sure that it’s the feeling that wreaks havoc on the body and brain. Not everyone agrees with him, of course. Another school of thought insists that loneliness is a failure of social networks. The lonely get sicker than the non-lonely, because they don’t have people to take care of them; they don’t have social support.'

From experience I definitely agree that having very little/no social interaction is not synonymous with loneliness.

I'm curious whether the social interaction/suicide relation is correlation or causation.

> The culture doesn't encourage innovation and curiosity is shunned in most of the schools. Kids get into this rat race of scoring high grades without even realizing it.

I'm not trying to take anything from what you're saying, but my experience is that applies just as well to US school (high school, at least.)

I used to enjoy sleep deprivation. In hindsight, that was me self-treating depression.

I'd like to clarify that I am not personally offended by the quoted comment. I'm an atheist and know nobody who was affected in this way by the Holocaust/WW2.

I also think it's in very bad taste to speculate on why someone chose specific coping mechanisms to live with themselves after being one of the few to survive a horrific ordeal.

My primary complaint is not that someone said something like this, but that it was acceptable enough to everyone else in the community that it ended up one of the very first posts in the discussion.

Unfortunately, I don't have time to respond more fully; I didn't realize this would be so controversial.

I agree "hate group" is stronger wording than would be appropriate (at any rate I don't want to quibble over a definition of that term) but I personally dislike intolerance - and I avoid forums[1] where it is considered upvote-worthy rhetoric.

There are insensitive and caustic comments everywhere - but when they are promoted through upvotes they discourage participation from affected individuals, breeding an environment where people only feel welcome if they subscribe to the dominant opinions. This results in a hollow echo chamber, which is not a satisfactory equilibrium for any forum trying to encourage healthy discussion.
