What kind of filament is that printed with and are you concerned about it failing over time? Especially if there's spinning disks in there I'd be paranoid as hell about it falling.

the only way to download it is with a premium subscription

This doesn't help you on a mobile device, but in case others weren't aware of its existence, there's a great open source tool for downloading from many/most websites: yt-dlp

Sorry for the off-topic comment but I can't help but see the thumbnail as Alex in A Clockwork Orange having his eyes held open.

I agree with your overall arguments and your position, just not the way you have portrayed it.

It would be trivial
she could have easily
getting vaccinated is simple, cheap, and as anonymous as you would like it to be
A shitty spouse has less control over this choice than the vast majority of choices in your life.

All reads like blaming the victim or not acknowledging that there can be barriers you possibly haven't even considered between a desire to act and an ability to. The goal absolutely should be about making personal decisions even in the face of adversity, but when you reduce it like it's just them being lazy, and not recognizing the full extent of their reality, it doesn't come across as empowering. Maybe decisions are also being made with consideration of their children and their needs which also affects the calculus in making otherwise personal choices.

It's not a universal truth that you can just choose to get a vaccination without making an appointment or needing to involve insurance etc.

In a hypothetical extreme scenario, imagine having to weigh the risks between getting the vaccine that will potentially save your life and unexpectedly getting an appointment reminder text/email or follow-up contact that alerts the controlling partner and they potentially end your life for the "transgression."

The vaccine being "cheap" is also not universal and if you aren't allowed personal discretionary spending anything >$0 isn't cheap enough.

Totally legitimate user,
You only link to central24 so I have to assume you have some connection to it; its/your publisher is listed as ZwadTech but the footer link (zwadtech.com) doesn't resolve and general web searches for that term only returns the central24 website. Where do you source your information for your totally legitimate articles? I noticed there aren't any authors listed.

Why is this domain only linked to by newly created accounts (4+ of which have been banned)?

There's a great (and short) video about encryption back-doors by CGP Grey: "Should all locks have keys? Phones, Castles, Encryption, and You." (Piped link).

"No matter how much we might wish it, there's no way to build a digital lock that only angels can open and demons cannot. Anyone saying otherwise is either ignorant of the mathematics or less of an angel than they appear."

EDIT: I still hate you Piped bot.

Someone else asked if this was a real thing (I also had my doubts) so I did some quick searching -- as far as I can tell this is legit. I also found a macro photography site that has a bunch of adorable pictures.

Flag
A Flag is a black, light-absorbing cloth (duvetine) stretched on a metal frame and used to block out areas of light in all different sizes.

Barn Doors
Barn doors is slang for the four metal folding doors found on all sides of a light. The barn doors can be repositioned to help direct light in a certain direction.
