Thanks for trying to contribute. This is the most significant event I've experienced when a lot of people don't do their research. NFTs can be anything - not just images - that reduces the middleman for creators of art. That's just the surface.

My favorite feature of NFTs is the proof of ownership concept. Was your watch stolen and you can't prove it was yours prior to the theft? Well, future watches will have NFTs tied to them to prove ownership.

I started watching The Rookie this week. OK, yes, I know it's a TV show, but cops knowledge of Laws and Procedures is shown as a literal bedrock, foundation, "where's your Rook Book?" being a repeated line.

Equally though, I'm also aware that cops are put on your streets with mere weeks of training; when was the last time you started a job where you just knew all the rules?

The whole thing seems like a bumblebee ... it shouldn't fly, and yet, somehow ...

I refuted nothing of the sort. You're reading into my comment what you want to see, presumably so you can have a nice, cathartic argument.

No, my point was that there are many factors at play and simply - and only - blaming the gender is simplistic and could easily be read as sexist.

He's replying to the topic of the article, which is teenage girls. No one is blaming the gender. What you're attempting to refute is that body image issues are part of nature. I would love to see your evidence that they are not.

Depression was invented when Myspace came out and before video games there was no violence. /s

Heyo, I have sort of a dumb issue. My PC is currently connected to the internet via power LAN because my WiFi signal fluctuates a lot and will sometimes break off for a couple seconds (which is a problem for streaming). However, I get way better speeds on the WiFi. Is there any way to set it up so my PC is primarily on WiFi but switches to the power LAN when it disconnects?

I'm using Windows 10 btw.
