Probably not worth trying to actually use today. I'd leave it as it is, imo it's better as a small piece of history - Android on PC is pretty niche

What is a "drug" and what isn't is an arbitrary, made-up distinction. There are only molecules.

Sure the AI can break it down for the humans

Depends on who built the model, and the selection of the data used to train it. AI holds a lot of potential in my book, if you use it right. But never stop being critical of the answers you receive, and be aware of they work and their shortcomings

Maybe they could never see the actual pharaoh, but what I'm saying is that "The Pharaoh" was itself the "face" of power, and also where power and influence actually resided. Now we have surveillance and propaganda perpetuated by either known but opaque actors (e.g. governmental agencies, corporations) or simply unknown ones. You can believe or not in an international "elite" conspiracy, but by that I also mean random teen hacker groups, data brokers, gov agencies of nations other than the one you live in, etc.

History does not only repeat, and simply looking at the past can make you blind to the novel ways society has transformed. For example, oppression has been a constant throughout history, but it never has been as faceless as it is today. Lords and kings have been replaced by corporations and agencies operating across borders, in ways and with purposes that I don't think anyone who's not actually involved with can claim they fully understand.

I'm sorry but this comment is just very misinformed.

Why would people not just switch to unflavored vaping instead of smoking? [...] Would you not switch to flavorless?

Because there is no such thing as "unflavored vaping". Just forced flavors.

the flavored ones are tailored towards younger consumers

Also just untrue. I'm an ex smoker, but just can't stand tobacco flavored liquids, or menthol ones. Some vapers like those, others prefer fruits and cakes. And if you're already vaping, why wouldn't you choose what you like best? Especially considering the alternative is cigarettes.

Am I having a stroke or are you?

indicate the absence of select known fungal toxins and compounds such as the hallucinogen psilocybin and cannabinoids.

The article says that the tests say there is no psilocybin.

HTTP/3 is yet another thing, unrelated to both of them. Wikipedia has a disambiguation page for the two meanings: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_3.0 https://www.cnbc.com/2022/11/04/web-inventor-tim-berners-lee-wants-us-to-ignore-web3.html

Yeah, I'm with you. web3 is the cryptobro blockchain web, while Web 3.0 usually refers to either RFC-based standards or "the state of the modern web" - the post 2.0 era

Web 3.0 ≠ web3
