I agree with you on the ending. It felt like they intentionally left a lot unresolved to encourage calls for a second season, at the expense of the story. It would have been much better if there was some resolution to a few aspects and/or a hint at the fallout of the actions in the season.

Good subtle world building, too.

Ah, I see. We don't tend to put it to the mouth. It's more "fuck you". Apparently comes from demonstrating to the French that you still have your bow-drawing fingers and intend to use them. British archers captured by the french would have their first two fingers removed to prevent them launching arrows.

Yeah, I agree. I was just trying to clarify the intent of the comment.

But also I think that's the point of that line of debate. It is an attempt to show a religious stance from an atheist perspective in which belief is a while load of possible strange things accepted as true. It's not really much use other than when you're faced with someone who things your lack of theism is the opposite of their particular brand of religion and frames the discussion around which bits you have issue with, as if they might prove to you that you're wrong. Or to show that their belief that their religion is correct and all the others, including atheism, are the wrong ones, isn't really the other side of what an atheist thinks.

More a thought experiment than meant to characterise the entirety of atheism.

That's what they're saying. An atheist believes in 0 of the total options for gods and religions that you get if you add them all up. A believer believes in 1 or a few of them. So really, the religious are also non-believers when it comes to most gods and religions.

I think if you found the shop magically disappeared the next day after selling only the things people were looking for, no matter how random, it would make more sense.

Maybe they only sold drugs because someone wanted some.

Just checked and the ethics approval currently covers UK participants only, but the plan is to create a wirld-wide study once this one is complete and analysed.

From the researcher: ... more than happy to share the outcomes on the community. There is also in the questionnaire opt in to be notified about any results as well, but the plan is to do a ADHD-friendly report once it’s analysed and that will be shared.

Is it possible to change it so it's HTTPS in the link? I just copied and pasted and didn't look, since my browser automatically redirected to the HTTPS equivalent.

Participate in a study that looks at developing needs assessment plans for self-management of ADHD. This is run by someone with ADHD who is doing funded, academic research that has real outcomes and is done in collaboration with the people it is for. The study has had a full ethics review.

To be clear: this isn't my study but the researcher will know it's posted here and will see the comments on this post.

The EEE strategy would lead to the big corporate entity being the way most people interact. New users would go there instead of other platforms to engage. In time, a lot of the users and content would be on the corporate platform because it's the one that has the most reach, marketing, etc. so defederation would be a big hit.

As others have pointed out: sending a DM from wefwef appears to be a no-go. Is there a rallying point somehwere? A lemmy community, discord channel? I'm interested in being involved but not sure how much time I can commit so would rather throw some effort at something that's got others already coordinating rather than start something that falters everytime work gets in my way.

I'm just starting out with lemmy myself but have decades of experience with tech and work in higher education, so might be best placed working on educational aspects. My plan at the moment is to set up something small dedicated to self hosted services with a focus on containerised deployment and low maintainence effort. Documenting that journey might be useful?
