Also vanilla, but artificial vanillin is more or less the same chemical as natural vanillin.

(wiþ, ðat, ðe)

Finally understand now what ðe difference between þ and ð is.

Just reminded me of a history teacher who, when teaching the Containment policy, showed us a jar with a slip of paper contained within, which read “COMMUNISM”. Displayed prominently in the classroom thereafter.

Didn’t work on me. When my assigned seat changed such that the jar and I were out of view of the teacher while at the board, I popped the lid off in front of everyone.

Lol

Would like a variant on this, the bugs and darkness of the woods would drive me insane:

• On a field, farming optional
• Add a soldering station, solar panels, well with pump, and septic tank
• Perimeter tripwires and defense (nobody’s coming to help if something happens)
• Tornado shelter with medical supplies and a healthy supply of 3D filament

And I’ll finally be able to complete everything on my bucket list that doesn’t involve travelling.

You can lead a horse to water … I get the sentiment though. Schooling is a great idea that is too often poorly executed. I’ve found that educational materials for math and science sometimes have a circlejerk kind of attitude, like the authors are laughing at the thought of students struggling with a problem “left as an exercise to the reader” immediately following a wall of dense, incomprehensible text.

Where can I find examples of otherwise dry subjects taught well? Is there an educational system that’s praised in the same way they praise Scandinavian prisons? Or is the pain of learning just a necessary evil?

Sometimes I think about what it takes to build a precision EMP device that works like a laser pointer. For this exact scenario.

This is the stuff I fear about self-driving cars, but now with the middleman hacker cut out. If they ever make self-driving cars mandatory, that’s my cue to move somewhere I can get around with just a bicycle. Or a cabin in the woods.

Looks like it’s made by a third party: https://www.telemessage.com/tag/tm-sgnl-android-installation-upgrade-guide/

It is evident from the current top-level comments that more education is needed.

I would rather meet bona fide rightists than pot-stirrers like OP

Is there sarcasm I didn’t pick up on?

Unfortunately, yes. The closest grocery store is literally a 5 minute drive away, but the 2-lane road there is just wide enough for the cars (driving at decent speed) in either direction. No sidewalks and nigh impossible to bike due to the monster trucks on the road and drainage ditches immediately to either side of the road.

What are NCD and MWoG?

Virginia Tech did. But university shootings seem far less common.

Nice thing is that the X230 still closes properly with a thin sliding webcam cover.
