health, stress, whining 

Suffering so many signs of stress. Sudden eczema outbreak, hypertension, heart arrhythmia. Anyone who thinks teachers have it easy have no idea!

@_lunawinters one women reach equality with men across society, then it will be time to address any women who’ve taken it too far. Until then, we must support women’s fight for equality!

@mngrif big focus on design rather than production, though if they picked their own dimensions and shapes, maybe that’d fit the bill! Thanks for the idea 🧐

My school has now got a cnc lathe and cnc milling machine. Can anyone recommend simple beginner projects suitable for middle-school students that would be engaging and accessible?

@jk Thank you for writing this! I thought it was just me feeling like I'm 16, despite the job, mortgage, wife and children, now in my later thirties!

looking for info on reproduction areas of a common cubozoan in Australia 

Anyone know much about cubozoans, or have access to journal databases? Looking for info on Carybdea xaymacana breeding grounds, particularly SW Australia.

ageing, swearing, no significant issues, just whining! 

Growing old can just fuck the right off! I have multiple ‘lumps’ that hurt, joints that are sore, limbs where I can’t work out whether it’s a muscle of a joint that’s sore, or even which joint it could be! It’s like going through growth pains again!

Boo! Microsoft switching Edge to chromium rendering engine, reinforcing the market share ownership of Google! Why couldn't they switch to Firefox's engine instead?!

mocking transphobia/stupid conspiracies 

@Elizafox So what's the data on countries with historically high soybean consumption and homosexuality? You'd think it'd be easy research, but somehow, I don't think Alex Jones would have an answer!

Samuel P. Huntington: The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion (to which few members of other civilizations were converted) but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

If using clients that don't support 2FA forces the need to have app passwords, is this any more secure that just having a massively strong password without 2FA in the first place? Are app-passwords as susceptible to brute force as complex, random and long passwords anyway?

People in first world countries are dying from measles in 2018.

PEOPLE. ARE. DYING. FROM. MEASLES. IN. TWO. THOUSAND. EIGHTEEN.

Oh for a genetically modified companion pet, that is as friendly as a dog or cat, but eats the grass to mow your lawn while you're out, instead of digging holes in your garden, or killing wildlife!

@Brunty Plus... Take that Environment! Eat my 1.2KW of energy sucking hardware!

@Saederup92 It'll basically be a negative feedback cycle, immunisation decreases until diseases increase, then immunisation increases until it dies down. No idea what causes the negative feedback for the immunisation itself though... by all rights, as diseases increase, vaccination should increase BUT NEVER GO DOWN AGAIN

@dwmatiz Are the cases functional as heat-spreaders? Do they have some other functional benefit?
