British isn’t a race, it’s a rationality. And as a Brit, British food is horrible, including fish and chips.

It’s in theory about 8MB/s, but it gets throttled fast if I try to download anything larger than a few GB

70GB?! That would take me all day to download, and my internet isn’t unusually slow.

What is it actually?
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
We do need a decentralised currency that isn’t controlled by Visa/MasterCard payment processors, and their puritan ideologies. I haven’t seen many that are so good, but maybe Monero? The main problems seem to be accessibility to the everyday person, ease of conversion between regular money and it (eg USD, GBP, EUR), and lack of it being accepted for normal payments.
- Comment on How do you "feel" gender? 1 week ago:
From what I’ve gathered, neither of us are unusual in not ‘feeling’ gender. I’m trans (shocker!) and felt dysphoria with my physical body, and biochemical dysphoria in the form of depression, until I transitioned, but I wouldn’t say that’s really anything to do with gender. In a world without gender, I would still transition because it makes me feel more comfortable, and that would have absolutely nothing to do with gender roles, stereotypes, or labels.

How have I lived with a Jewish family all my life and never heard ‘Kyke’, yet I was well aware of ‘Faggot’ after only knowing about gay people for much less time?

It’s encouraging that these sorts of signs are being seen across the US.
- Comment on 3 weeks ago:
Being rational is oppositional to being a cult, as it’s constantly trying to get you to question everything, including itself, and dismiss it if it doesn’t stand up.
- Comment on How much money's out there? 3 weeks ago:
Money is really just a representation for resources, so if it was simple, the value of money should adjust to be equal in total to the total amount of resources on the market. However, then people go and make it complicated by buying stuff like services, money itself, lending money, and so on.
Value for things like services are also subjective, varying by the person and how desperate they are, or how loathe to sell their time and energy.
- Comment on Shut up science!! 3 weeks ago:
Knowledge is itself a justified true belief. Also, the scientific method is the best way of obtaining empirical knowledge, but the idea that empirical evidence is true is still a belief, and not even that justified. Also also, science is constantly trying to prove itself wrong. It’s unlikely that what we think now based on scientific methods will be the same we think in the future.
- Comment on OPSEC social media related question 4 weeks ago:
What type of organisation are you part of that you need to guard the OpSec (operational security) of? Are you sure you don’t mean PerSec (personal security)?
That said, please try selling your item in EBay before using Facebook, like, it’s not great, but Facebook collects so much more data, even on an empty device. Iirc they need to ‘verify’ your identity with an ID document.
