In the case of children, isn't some of this on the parents involved as well? Have the parents of affected children talked to each other about it and reached out to the parents of the bullies to ask if they know their child's been bullying or however one might go about that conversation?

That said, Apple's certainly in the wrong in taking advantage of this, and in many ways it's no surprise. They're essentially a luxury brand, whose entire business model is exploiting this kind of behavior of social pressure and buying specific products to better fit into a group.

Has anyone tried making a spinning wheel of people associated with communities looking to change moderators and letting it determine who takes on the responsibilities?

Not sure what you mean exactly by a classic style of typewriting [...]

Oh! Whoops, I think I meant to write "classic style of typing" there. Appreciate the pointers & reply! I'll have to look into mineral spirits, not familiar with those

 

While sometimes logs aren't too difficult to follow, there's also often times they're inscrutable to those not in the weeds of their respective OS. So I was wondering if anyone around here might have some pointers to guides or the like for where to find, and help understanding, different system error logs.

On Windows there's Event Viewer to some extent, and on Linux I think it's typically /var/log (and some distros may have a GUI System Log Viewer?). Not sure of MacOS.

Thanks in advance for any replies with pointers to resources!

I had been publishing articles on my own website since 2003, but I did that mostly manually by writing whole HTML pages.

Huh, so literally raw html? I know it's not too difficult, but I have wondered occasionally how many small websites may have been written that way.

Appreciate the reply! It's a cool way to view it in individual terms. I was thinking in more social terms, however, which I've been a little fascinated to find seems to be a little atypical from the replies so far.

This does seem to come closer to what I was wondering about when I originally posted, good eye!

OP asks the real life equivalent of being AFK which, assuming you’re normally regularly online, only really corresponds to being high or sleeping.

The funny thing is, it didn't occur to me how vague my question was until after I posted and started seeing the replies. That's made it more fun tbh, and interesting as in this context (online vs. in real life) I've not really thought of being online in such individualistic terms as this and some other replies suggest.

Is there something mystical to this?

If shareholders and executives are demanding so much money, shouldn't they be the optimal target for cuts to maximize profitability of the business? 🤔

Does ffmpeg work best standing? Or is it better spread out? Did it work properly if it finished fast?

Thanks for the reply and note on the pen use!

Oh hey, going there reminded me at some point I'd found this and bookmarked it but haven't tried it yet, so thanks for the reminder! I should finally give it a try.

 

Not really from a privacy concern, that's simply a bonus, more of a reliability/convenience interest. Even if internet/mobile internet is out for some reason, being able to easily text across local network would be nice.

For Windows/Android mainly, but crossplatform tools that include those are great too!

 

The [International] tag is meant to be broadly inclusive, for those wondering, as I'm interested in this subject from all nationalities/continents. I'm guessing the methods may be somewhat similar, but never know how they might be better elsewhere till you ask!
