Fascinating. I was not aware of this disturbing bit of history.

As long as there's still a driver required (which there is) it's not a self driving car at all. It's just driver assist, which cars have had for decades. We're further off from self driving cars than anyone wants to admit.

The answer to stubborn Phillips screws is impact drivers. Those quick, short impacts do a great job of loosening with much less tendency to cam than either drills or manual screwdrivers. Impacts offer other great features such as instant bit change and not twisting your arm when a bolt is stuck.

No love for some of the best examples:
Wizard of Oz
Airplane
All Quiet on the Western Front
The Ten Commandments
Evil Dead 2
Lord of the Rings
Various King Arthur, Robin Hood, Christmas Carol, Oliver Twist, etc. films.

Unnecessary subtitles are unnecessary...

An excellent, exhaustively researched video on the subject came up with Draughts in 1951, as the first ever video game.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHQ4WCU1WQc

The Lord of the Flies scenario is most likely when essential resources like food are in short supply. Trained and previously organized groups like the military would implement strict rationing and work to expand their ability to gather sufficient resources for everyone. You can try to organize average people, but it's much more likely the biggest and strongest will take from the weaker. Organization will more likely be small gangs that use force to take from the rest. It takes a lot of discipline to half- starve yourself. If you've got to be shipwrecked, best to do so on a large island with lots of food and fresh water.

No idea why Zoom became flavor of the month. It was House Party before them, and Skype long before that. It's like web video back in the Real Media days, before things got standardized.
Easiest way is WebRTC based. Visit a site like https://jitsi.org/jitsi-meet/ put in a meeting name, Grant permissions for camera and mic. Set a password. Then send the link (and pass) to anyone you want to join. Nothing to install. Companies can set up their own jitsi or other WebRTC servers easily, too.

"such acts tend to satisfy a person's desire to help, and that those people are then far less likely to take more effective action than are people who avoided taking token actions."

Disneyland is not in Los Angeles. It's in Anaheim. Different city, in a different county.

Katie isn't exactly the most trusted name in journalism. Bad journalists pick and choose guests who spout sensational claims, rather than accurate ones.
Throwing flour in there is at least some honestly. Sugar is just carbohydrates, the thing your body needs in larger quantities than anything else. And it's not as though the alternative (fats) doesn't have similar issues. This is all just click bait.

If you have to sleep outdoors, better to do so in a semi- tropical country. I suppose that's why such a large proportion of the group aren't actually homeless.

While gifs didn't go away, the outcry did establish PNG as a widely supported web image format. Unfortunately, PNGs don't do animations. The patents on GIFs expired before an alternative could be established... much like MP3s. These days, HTML5 video is starting to obsolete the gif for those little animations, because videos can be much smaller.

It's a ridiculous claim, of course. Plug a whole bunch of data into a computer, and some kind of pattern will always appear out of it, no matter what, but it's just incidental. See:

And it appears to be a death-trap... you're sitting ON the rear axle, pretty sure you'll roll it once you try on any hills. Without a substantial roll-bar, you'll be crushed underneath.
