But this bucking of the trend toward entropy by earth's biosphere is at the expense of the must vaster increase in entropy by the Sun burning its nuclear fuel. The sun lights and heats the whole solar system because of the increase of disorder/entropy at its core via nuclear fusion. And living thin... |

Mashed taters with mushrooms, onions, spinach, lentils, garlic, and a few other bits and pieces. It's quite a challenge but I'm used to the procedure and there's enough for a week. Wouldn't want to go to all that trouble just to get one meal out of it. |

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-69041617 Costello reprimanded for rolling his eyes and other snarky body language. No biggie, but good to see somebody standing up for courtesy. I doubt Trump will be put on the stand. They'll be too worried that he'll forget where he is. Mind you, he did a... |

I'm even more convinced that there is no hell than I'm convinced that there's no heaven, and that's saying something, so naturally my strong opinion is that you wouldn't go to hell. Even among the various theological traditions, few if any would answer yes to your question, and AFAIK there's nothing... |

I want to go under electroshock therapy like john elder robison did. To get the normal parts of the brain switched on. However I don’t have the funds for it. I didn't know John Elder Robison had ECT. I wonder why he had it. I've had it too, about six months after I joined WP. I had eight sessions i... |

From what I have learned from the limited research i have done in this area, about the only way to get privacy on the internet is to use a VPN. Even then you need to do some research on which VPNs are the most private. That's my feeling too. And I tried a VPN once - most websites were fooled about ... |

I've sometimes been uncertain as to whether or not a partner was "actually" being manipulative, abusive, etc. But in a way it doesn't much matter. If your experience of them is making you feel terrible and all attempts at fixing the problem fail, the choice becomes one of whether or not yo... |

I'm no expert, but my current belief is there's at least one major privacy weakness in all traditional browsers - they always tell the websites you visit what your IP address is, and they might also tell them your device profile. And I was surprised to read that they also tell the website the previo... |

My notifications stopped a few days ago too. I looked at my current email account to try and make sure the notifications weren't being blocked by the spam filter. The advice on their FAQ was to add the address to the contacts list. So I did that but still no notifications. Then I looked at my WP Acc... |
