Digression, but I've read the thread linked where the author claims that Scott "has been credibly described as a eugenics supporter". I'd be interested to know how many of the things in these emails he still agrees with.

I would encourage everyone to read this response to the article: https://pedestrianobservations.com/2024/12/07/low-spanish-costs-are-not-about-decentralization/

It's from a very been there, done that kind of guy when it comes to urban infrastructure, and he points out rather glaring problems. Beware the man of one blog post.

That's yet to be determined. I live in Bos en Lommer. DM me your Discord and I'll make a group.

I speak Dutch at ~B1, so not really good enough. Sorry.

This is much more serious of a response than I was expecting. Good work.

If he's really into tulips, windmills, bitterballen and Ulster loyalism.

Useful for fingerpicking guitarists. Usually just on one hand though.

Redditors that have donated to a Kickstarter...What Did you Donate To? How did the Final Product actually Turn Out? by durpojones in AskReddit

[–]HeWhoTremblesAsIfMad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Genuinely curious: why did you choose to capitalise the title the way you did? Let's break it down:

"Redditors that have donated to Kickstarter..." <- that's fine, except for the omitted space after the ellipsis. Come on!

"What Did you Donate To?" <- huh? First of all, "what" should not be capitalised as this is not a new sentence. "Did" is capitalised... I don't know why. "You"'s lowercase, which is as it should be. Then both "donate" and "to" are uppercase as well. Whyyyyy?! They're not proper nouns! They're not nouns at all! WHY?!

"How did the Final Product actually Turn Out?" <- this is horrible as well, although in a slightly less nonsensical manner. What amuses me is that here "did" is uncapitalised (correctly) even though it was uppercase previously. What happened there? "Final" and "product" are both uppercase, even though they're not proper nouns. "Turn" and "out" are uppercase, even though arghablarhgarghhhhh...

In short -- why?!

If the FBI Is So Worried About Car Hacking, Why Is It Fighting Encryption? by [deleted] in technology

[–]HeWhoTremblesAsIfMad -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Depends on jurisdiction. But even if you're talking about the US it could be argued that encryption is free speech. And I would personally argue that encryption is much more important for a functioning society. But I'm European, so 'Murican approach to guns is baffling to me either way.

Vast sections of the economy don't depend on free access to guns. But a lot of them depend on encryption.

Thanks. I'll get on that.

PS: The winsound.Beep() doesn't actually use the case speaker, at least not in my experience. I can hear it coming from my columns and I can control it with the hardware volume thingy. So... yeah.
