thanks for explaining the obvious implication of my comment

Seriously. TOR is primarily funded by the US government. Maybe this or not all bugs are deliberately left in for the sake of allowing backdoors, but people should not forget this

But having that thought is not a given. I value my own work significantly more than work I paid for, even if it is of the same quality.

If you read a bit further he does say that the reviews are good and he should give it a proper go

Singapore seems to have done quite well operating on that notion

This is assuming that the knowledge space being aimed at is discoverable solely by exploration of 1v1 games. Maths and maybe some of the sciences could be set up like this if you were very clever about it, but not much else.

You're falsely conflating knowledge with intelligence

Presumably they're referring to the general ease of obtaining a second phone number. I think the bigger issue could be making a second Whatsapp account though. WhatsApp does not want you having multiple accounts. Last I checked there's no in-app option to log out on Android other than to delete your account

Does Instagram even have reels in the browser? If it has I've never noticed them

Which is odd because the major reason Xbox is petering out is because it's been completely mismanaged. Sony and Nintendo are still doing just fine. Nintendo even had a dodgy console that no one bought within relatively recent memory. Xbox messed up with the One and then have just failed to get back on track. It's not like the industry is dying.

>Them, not him, I thought? The Master had several henchmen.

I'll admit part of the difficulty there was that I'd skipped the ends of earlier chapters because they were too easy, so I was missing some context like this

>Foes, fiends? (Ger. "Feind" and Swe. "fiende" both mean "enemy", so I've always thought that's the original meaning of Eng. "fiend" too.)

Foes sounds right yeah. I think there was another word at some point where a prefixed "I" seemed to indicate that the thing was "to me", and -an feels right to be an old plural form. I can't think of any straight away but instinctively I feel like there are words in modern English that pluralise similarly, perhaps in the names of some old organisations?

>Spouse -- almost wrote "wife" there, but that could have been confusing in this context -- of some old king of Wessex or something, innit?

That's the one. I don't remember exactly who they were but my memory is that she managed to be the spouse of two Anglo-Saxon kings, sometime not too long before William arrived

Of course. Doesn't change the reality that this is why someone would accept a justification that a neutral would easily see as plainly dishonest. Anyway, this is why we need unions

I was sarcastically pointing out the embedded assumption in the humour of the comment I was replying to. If you really must make this case, because it sounds like you've been waiting for the chance, go and make it to GP who was using spies from Canada and New Zealand as figures of absurdity. Perhaps also explain to him why "spies" got switched for "forces" and then "special forces" appropo of nothing
