    I can't come up with a flag design I like for the life of me. This is the best I've got so far. It looks too similar to the flag of Amsterdam, while also just being worse somehow.

    Just need to vent.

    Let's say we have a deserted island, about the size of Rhode Island. Now, let's take a small population (~100) of infants from around the world and strand them on this island, with no knowledge of the culture, language or society of their parents, and with no contact with the outside world. Now, let's say a miracle happens and they all survive into adulthood, maybe even forming some sort of basic hunter-gatherer culture. What language will they speak?

    (i'm probably on some kind of watch list now)

    None.

    Language is developed with social interactions.

    Chances are these infants are going to fall back on cannibalism before they can learn to speak.

    I seem to remember the French trying an experiment like that, most the kids eventually turned out to be manic depressives and died.

    I have really bad arachnophobia.
    Also, I know what happened to @Inertia but what in the living hell happened to @direct_UA?

    I think both were related to Discord stuff, but I don't really know. One user on Direct's profile said they were bullying someone or something like that, but I'd ask someone who actually knows before assuming that. However, people on their profile do seem pretty up-beat about it

    So, new windows update... My personal laptop isn't have issues with it, but it really killed my academic laptop. Took 20 seconds to start before this update, about 15mn now. Great for when I need it for, I don't know, a class... Guess I'll have to do some system restoring or something on that one -_-

    A stout nicotine buzz will definitely affect your ability to drive more than being slightly to moderately high.
    No one gives a shit about people dipping, smoking cigarettes, or vaping while driving though.
