I think the intercept did a good story on the lab leak theory. It's more broadly focused on gain of function research. you can read the transcript or listen to the podcast here

AirVPN is the best. whole heartedly recommended this service.

I thought I had hit reply on your other comment going into more detail (whoops!).

Like I did in this example, ask if people are open to feedback (if you're the one giving it).

Often when I am training groups on how to work together, I always try and frame feedback as a gift.

If someone is giving you feedback, they are genuinely trying to help you grow - and that's a gift. The issue here though, is not everyone is a good gift giver - and we can't control that.

What we do have control over is how we recieve gifts - often all you need to do is say thank you. Don't explain why you're not going to use this feedback (if you plan not to incorporate it). Other than clarifying the feedback to better understand how to incorporate it, saying thank you is the best way to go about it.

As far as delivering feedback I always say "if you can choose to be anything in this world why choose anything other than kind."

It is important to state that "being kind" doesn't mean not having the difficult conversations or delivering difficult feedback - you can still do that without being cruel. Being assertive isn't being aggressive.

A bit rambly but if you're ever working with folx on delivering feedback, I've found that presenting these frameworks with it ste super helpful

Are you open to some additional thoughts / feedback on feedback / constructive criticism?

I think someone was making something similar but was a two handed thing that attarched to magnetic hip clips.

100% they're awesome - and you can install your own apps on the instance, probably could use it for hosting a site if wanted.

I set up a foundry instance on mine.

Contrapoints new video is quite timely.

whatbox is awesome and their support team is top notch.

lots you can do with their system.

Pretty sure this is a fan video lifting clips from Ron Fricke's non-narrarive documentaries Bakara and Samara. Dangalfd (the YouTube channel) also did this with Sega Sunset pulling from the anime anthology "Neo Tokyo" and is the short "Running Man."

I just have an issue with people lifting things and not even crediting where they have found them from.

Lorn only has a few official videos which are wonderful in their own right:

is there a specific order in which these are supposed to be read? I feel lost as AF, but dig the art and a lot of the different pieces as I come across them.
