Not if you had Napster and your parents didn’t realize that you can just turn the monitor off without turning the whole computer off all night.

Well yeah. I was just curious if the difference was on the order of millimeters or microns /m².
How much was the variation?
Winamp. Everybody line up so I can just run down the row while holding my fist at face hight.
Well then I’m not sure where to go from here, because you’re implying that I said things which I didn’t.
I see where your coming from, and I suppose I should clarify: in this case, the reason that I invoke the simile, is that the original reason for ALL this drama, is religion. There is more than enough physical space for them both to live in the region happily, but because this is the Land of Israel that we’re talking about, they both claim exclusive right to it, and only one can have it.
Events since this original issue obviously can’t go overlooked, but it all stems from this unreasonable unwillingness to share plenty.
See, reading your comment makes me think that you didn’t actually read the rest of mine, because that’s not what I said. I’m not talking about the people here… Mostly.
I think that’s basically what he’s saying with more words. You’re not wrong in this case, but the “everybody sucks here” line is most often used by people who don’t actually know the details of what they’re talking about, but need to have an opinion on the record. (Other recent example being the Ukraine war situation)
In my opinion, this whole situation is too drunk guys who got in a fight over something stupid. Palestine got knocked out early, and so Israel is being vilified simply for being the one still standing, but now Palestine has got up and kidney punched Israel while it was turned away, and people are rooting for the underdog since they got back up. The problem with this, and the reason that Obama is speaking the way that he is, is because people seem to be forgetting all of the other horrible things that Hamas has done too, because they’re currently the crowd favorite.
So yes, everybody sucks here, and I think people are having a hard time coming to terms with the fact that, sometimes in a fight, there isn’t actually a 100% good guy. It’s just too drunk guys getting in a fight over something stupid.
I’ve always interpreted it to mean somewhat the opposite of what you describe. To me: passive listening would be sitting quietly until a person is done speaking and then taking your turn. Actively listening would involve the occasional, and obviously respectful interruption with clarifying questions or anecdote to indicate that you are going along with them on the journey, rather than reading about it, so to speak.
This also applies to dog poop
There is an answer to the question that you are not asking, and it’s the scene from NCIS where TWO people are furiously typing on ONE keyboard so that they can “hack faster”
That’s exactly my point. The gold standard would be a key signing party, but given that humans don’t tend to talk to each other in meat space much these days, it’s more of a rare occurrence than it used to be. I don’t really know what the ideal solution would be that would be a good mix of trust, privacy, and ease of use though.
I am probably at a similar experience level to OP and have wondered the following: is there a commonly used, or agreed upon repository for identity verification with PGP or similar? It would be a useful thing to use, the problem is that if you’re posting something to a public space, not everyone may have access to your public key for verification. Including the key in the message doesn’t seem like it would help much, since someone else could just generate two new keys and still claim to be you without any affiliation. Am I wrong about this? Thanks.
Now now… Oftentimes it’s Ronald Reagan as well…
