Being able to recognize poison ivy. Growing up in a forest, it was one of many basic automatic skills learned in childhood, and I see and avoid it without much thought. I've had to prevent many friends from other regions or countries from causing themselves serious harm by ignorance of poison ivy, though.
But, um, the first national free lunch programs were started in this country because when WWII started, the government found that the post-Great-Depression populace was so stunted from malnourishment that there was concern about recruiting enough eligible soldiers. So, does this mean Republicans no longer want a military? No more sending poor people to fight their wars?
Multiple sites and communities are getting flooded with child sexual abuse images, which then propogate, because Fediverse.
We need more Henson Studios Sci-Fi collabs. The 2019 Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance series subtly combined the Muppet work with touches of CG that gave a really cool combined effect. Like, you're watching this creature, and then it seems more real than you expected. It would be great to see more of this, a la Farscape or new IP.
Came to recommend this. In Ian M Banks' Culture series, the main "Culture" are quite advanced, indeed with post-scarcity living and guardian AIs possible. We see "The Culture" working to subtly recruit less advanced civilizations and modernize them.
Yes, it does. There are many episodes where the Enterprise crew are observing a less advanced race. It is the reason they have the Prime Directive in the first place.
WV and MD were both Northern states in the Civil War. Virginia borders them and was the northern border of The Confederacy.
Edit to add: National Geographic article with a map showing the border. https://education.nationalgeographic.org/resource/union-confederacy/
It is mystifying. The WIC (Women, Infants, and Children) assistance program has nutrition requirements like only healthier foods and certain brands/ingredients allowed. Yet while it's OK to dictate to pregnant women and new mothers what they are permitted to eat on an assistance program, some people feel it is not all right for the other welfare programs. Always feels like we just csnnot have nutrition requirements for food programs if men use them.
Folding Phones Vs. Flip Phones:
Folding screen phones like the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip, Motorola Razr, etc. are not "flip phones" in the traditional sense. They are smartphones with a folding screen. If you actually want "simplicity and nostalgia", then that is a traditional flip phone (which are not smartphones), which is a separate category of device from folding screen phones.
Folding screen phones take all the complexity of any smartphone and add the complexity and fragility of a folding screen mechanism. They are far more fragile than "regular" slab smartphones at this point in their development.
Flip Phones:
The Nokia 2760 is sorta one of these (still comes with a few things like Facebook/Whatsapp/Youtube installed). Samsung is not currently making one. There are a number of other super cheap flip phones running a stripped down version of Android. These are painful to use, as they don't default to T9 typing, and navigating Android with a keypad and no touchscreen is kinda torture. You can get some decent 3g flip phones still, but very few 4g/5g options exist, and 3g flip phones (or 4G phones that don't do VOLTE) are now useless on American carriers. The NUU 4L Flip Phone works on 4g and does VOLTE, but the crippled Android interface and default terrible auto capitalization typing mode make it somewhat painful to use.
Some actual still-working-on-VOLTE flip phones:
- Nuu 4L Flip
- Kyocera’s DuraXV Extreme
- Nokia 2760
- Cat S22 Flip (Likely only on T-Mobile. Some claim an APN change can make an unlocked one work on Verizon, but many others have failed to get anything other than text messages to work.)

Well, in the wild, if you couldn't concentrate on one thing long enough to hunt/gather/fish, then you wouldn't eat, and would weed yourself out of the gene pool.
