Per hour? It’s all a blur to me at this point.

Thanks for the link. Not a bad distraction! I hope there’s a large catalog in case I want to treat it like the random Stumble button of yore (which I must have hit hundreds of times at least).

StumbleUpon was the best. I do miss it.

This post specifically says you can’t (without the bypass many won’t understand how to do).

I’m sure this has been solved already but I’m just wondering how you ensure people are voting based on the helpfulness and/or merit of the response. That’s the ideal on Lemmy but it’s obviously not always the case here. Presumably, you’d have to be logged in on the other platform to vote but you can just see the discussion from Lemmy, I guess?

Useful constraints would focus discussion to keep questions/replies brief, relevant, and hopefully helpful, wouldn’t they? I just wonder how up and downvoting would work since that would go very differently from Lemmy.

It doesn’t. Graeber was an anthropologist and Wengrow is an archaeologist. It’s a review of existing evidence from past civilizations (the diversity of which most people are hugely ignorant about), making the case the most common representations of “civilization” and “progress” are severely limited, probably to a detrimental extent since we often can only base our conceptions of what is possible on what we know.

That’s highly subjective, but the fascinating book The Dawn of Everything argues otherwise. There are even parts about the anthropological evidence some peoples just up and changed systems every so often (yes, non-violently). Our problem as people in the modern era is many can’t imagine anything else, not that no one ever did.

Yeah that phrasing was especially egregious.

This is as interesting as the time I learned from an expert talking about research into aging that technically younger animals (and likely people) can experience aging if they’re injected with the blood of an older counterpart, suggesting (among other arguments he made) not just that it’s “contagious” but that aging should be treatable and youthful physical health could be extendable to longer ages.

The “desk” appears to be random limbs of other humans. Also, it looks like her game then is somehow taking place in a kitchen that’s on its side?

Wow! How much is it right now to save 40% of Democracy?

Yup, just walk away… or answer ‘no’ since smart folks don’t always say ‘yes’
