  1. If you were not dead on the question of the principal nature of science, we wouldn't have eaten the dust in such a non-patrimonious manner of speech. I understand your grarg, but I urge you not to feel so anally crucified at this encounter.
  2. I'm somewhere between libertarian and social democrat, but typically identify as 'progressive' because whatever. I believe in simple government with decentralization, but not at the detriment of the basic social safety net and funding of education and public health. Similarly, I support Medicare for All (single-payer insurance) but not socialized medicine (state-owned hospitals, etc). I find myself on the right and left on different issues, but typically left of center. To be more accurate, I honestly don't relate to any modern political perspective 100%, but I'm aligned to the progressive camp around 80%. I would likely feel more at home with Bull Moose progressivism. (Teddy Roosevelt) I had the unique experience of being a Millennial raised by a grandma - and no, not a Boomer, a Silent Gen'er. When you're an older sibling and your parent is in their 70s / 80s, you learn to read, self-teach, and adopt a man-of-the-house role at a young age to some extent as well. One is also heavily influenced by their parent's ethics of course, and in my case, I got the ethics of the era of the Great Depression and World War II, a period when citizens had a stronger sense of responsibility to their community than they do today. They were also sticklers for striving for high ideals and setting the bar really high. It's frustrating for me politically and sometimes socially, but it took me some number of years to realize just what a unique childhood I had, and probably a real blessing as well, not that I'm that religious. If I had been with my parents all that time, I would have grown up on the oil fields and been a very different person, likely a metalhead same as them. (no disrespect to metalheads, rock on)
  3. I'm an audiophile and kind of a stickler for good sound, so I usually prefer headphones. (I'm also 28, so eh) That said, expensive wireless earbuds have some decent sound. My main beef with earbuds in general is they hurt my ears. I'm not sure why, but I want to say they have a lot of high frequencies in them. My ears hurt after using them. If this isn't a problem you have with earbuds, you're okay with sound that's not bad but also not 'accurate', and you don't mind throwing down the cash, then get the earbuds. Wireless is really convenient.
  4. Hi folks, Since the Squares shut down, we've gained users on PonyCrush. We're in need of better moderation controls and mobile apps. The site's built on Laravel as a traditional multiple-page MVC application with a rudimentary frontend API. We're going to be expanding that API and moving business logic where it belongs. So with that, we're seeking devs up to the task who'd like to help revamp our little gem. PM me for more details. Thanks.
  5. Last thing I drank was coffee -- as usual.. y'know... Kiiiinda addicted to caffeine.
  6. Listening to https://soundcloud.com/reggiomusic/reggio-space-original-mix ... Writing a bit more code for a new portion to my site...
  7. I just recently discovered your project, and I think it's awesome! Even greater to find out now that there'll be yet a newer version. Can't wait! ...and it runs on Arch Linux beautifully by the way.
  8. Hi and welcome to the community! The ponies and staff here seem very friendly. You should fit right in. Hope to see your art one of these days. See you around!
