Taking notes myself was a big part of my success in college even if rarely referenced them, just writing it down while listening helped it stick. Same for reading a text book. The AI summary might have all the important points, but that takes me 30 seconds to read and ponder vs 30 minutes.

I think part of it was to enforce the "stay at home wife" culture as well.

Looking at the background of the photo, it almost seems like women were shunned from the workforce simply cause the men would be distracted staring at them all day. They could of course just be looking at the camera as they weren't as common as they are today.

Its just proof that these people have always and will always exist. It isnt a result of LGBT propaganda that modern times like to blame it on.

In Canada the healthcare is subsidized by the tax payer so the reduction in injuries and emergency services costs would probably come out on top financially speaking, but most of our elected officials won't consider those numbers. The street budget is the street budget, healthcare budget is for healthcare, and they will claim there is no connection to the 2.

Going out for drinks with the boys is almost always with adult men. A girls night out is often with adult women. We use boys and girls regularly to refer to adults depending on the context.

People still call me crazy for claiming tech listens to us. My theory is most don't want to accept that reality so they deny instead.

There is also a societal dependance on some of the status quo. The bigger issue is how hard they actively resist the change. A lot of places still rely on trucking at a minimum to fill the groccery store with food wrapped in plastic, most of which is powered or made by fossil fuels. We need to electrify and diversifying but they cling to oil and have way too much power in governmental decisions to prevent or reverse any reduction in dependance for their products.

I've been having some minor issues with comments. Once a comment thread gets longer than 3 or 4 comments, accesing those deeper comment chains becomes very inconsistent/impossible. The "view more" button to see the rest of the comments will sometimes just disappear or do nothing when pressed. When accessing deep threads from my inbox or profile it will start at the top of the comment thread and fail to load/access the deeper comments, including the comment I used to navigate to that thread. Has anyone else had similar issues or found solutions?

 

The past couple updates whenever I'm browing "all" with sort set to "hot" the first few pages of scrolling is accurate but then it turns to posts that are 6months-2years old. This is only after 1-2 minutes of scrolling. Has anyone else had this issue?
