Saw this somewhere else and thought it was interesting. It's a type of personality test that attempts to determine your style of thinking and assigns an archetype.

Serious question: Can someone explain the difference between gluten sensitivity and Celiac disease? I don't know that I'm thinking about it the right way.

My bias: It's really annoying to me when people co-opt the actual diagnosed illnesses of others on social media.

I can't get a straight answer on this even in medial research. Some doctors say gluten is often not even the issue with their patients. Avoiding wheat forces them to consume fewer carbs in general which results in feeling better.

I realize this nonsense post makes me sound like Bernie Sanders, it wasn't intentional but I'm not mad about it either

We should start treating the DOD like we do the USPS. Make them justify every single dollar spent, fund pensions for people that haven't been born yet, and then still slash their funding. Social security could remain solvent for generations with enough left over to give evil commie healthcare to everyone. Plus, the god damn mail might be on time for once.

> But the anti-authoritarians demand that the political state be abolished at one stroke, even before the social conditions that gave birth to it have been destroyed. They demand that the first act of the social revolution shall be the abolition of authority. Have these gentlemen ever seen a revolution? A revolution is certainly the most authoritarian thing there is; it is the act whereby one part of the population imposes its will upon the other part by means of rifles, bayonets and cannon...

I remember having to read this for a political philosophy class years ago. I came across it again today and despite the 19th century references it seems somewhat relevant to some of the political rhetoric being used in the last few years.

Any website that claims to do CPU benchmarking, but doesn't give proper consideration to multi-core performance, is simply garbage. That is all.

Anyone know if enrolling your own secure boot keys still bricks the Thinkpad T14 motherboard? Thinking about buying the Gen 2 AMD version to replace my T490S, but it's a total dealbreaker if I might have to send it back for repairs just because I changed a simple UEFI setting.

Why is it that every time I buy a domain I want to buy ALL the domains?

This is for a potential future personal site, not even something I'll be working on right away. It turns out that [first][middle initial][last].com was available.

So I don't need the *.io or *.dev TLDs, but I want them...

Agreed, but what ought I do about it? Insist that a whole school or district, which includes thousands of other people, use the software I like? I like you FSF... But you're crazy.
