Have you tried clicking the little speaker icon after the phonetic notation on Wikipedia?

Actually, the way his name is pronounced in Dutch sounds like you’re about to spit out something that was stuck in the back of your throat.

There used to be a language attribute, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen lang before.

For example, an advice community could have a “good answer” vote. Each post in an “Am I the Asshole” community could have a “You’re the Asshole”/“You’re NOT the Asshole” vote. That sort of thing.

The comparison to tags got me thinking it might be cool if mods or posters could set custom tags/vote types per community or thread.

I’d say it’s similar to applauding or booing someone who’s addressing a crowd.

I think it might help to have different vote types. Instead of up and downvotes there could be things like agree/disagree, insightful, funny, quality shitpost, high/low effort post or things like that. That way people who want to see quality discussion could sort by insightful, while people looking for low effort shitposts or memes could sort by something else.

It is also extremely addictive.

A popular theory among self-proclaimed paychonauts, or people that like to experiment with drugs, but mostly psychedelics, is that using mind-altering substances could lead to ideas or insights that could be (considered) a threat to the status-quo. This is why the powers that be often demonize all drugs equally.

As others have pointed out, many people don’t really like to think about the systemic issues in society that drive people into poverty, homelessness or other problems that often go hand on hand with drug addiction.

It should be pointed out, though, that some drugs can and most likely will ruin your life. The first rule of experimenting with drugs is never, ever try heroin (or other opiates).

Try the uMatrix plugin. It allows you to dis- or enable things like scripts and images on a per-site basis.

And when only one of you nuts it’s an xorgasm.

Not vegan (sorry), but I thought The Modern Vegetarian Kitchen by Peter Berley was really good. Not all recipes are vegan, but most (all iirc) of them also have a vegan variant.

Thief? No, she caught that hot dog fair and square!

So apparently telling your friend or acquaintance you don’t share their particular sense of humour is worse?

I guess I shouldn’t overthink a shitpost, but is it really such a social faux pas to tell someone your tastes are different from theirs? I just wonder if this is a cultural thing that I’m too Dutch to get, or if it’s more of a I’m-too-socially-awkward-to-have-an-opinion-of-my-own kind of thing?

Yeah, that guy was really ahead of his time.

I’m not sure what the connection is between rotten.com and the CIA and what that says about me as a person, but maybe I’m just too far gone to understand.

rotten.com/library contained articles with text and images, not videos of people dying. The point was to inform, not to shock. It was pretty different from the rest of the website.

If by “more CIA shit” you mean critical of AES, then yes.

Rotten.com was known for horrible pictures of gore and whatnot, but also contained a collection of interesting, weird and insightful articles at /library. That site is gone now, but the article have been preserved at https://rottenlibrary.net/

What real British horror looks like.
