Got three screws left over after reassembling my belt sander. Does anyone know where they go or are they supposed to be spares or something

This is true
"Chemistry" comes from the Egyptian word "kēme", which means "black dirt". It's just playing in the sandbox. Not a science. At all.

Sabine has "never said or hinted at the idea that science is 'corrupt'".
@C_Kavanagh I have said multiple times explicitly that it's a systemic problem and I do not blame scientists for what is happening. I have said multiple times explicitly that I am talking about tax-paid research. I have never once said or hinted at the idea that science is "corrupt". I find

Starting to suspect this centrist won’t be voting for labour next election
Is anyone surprised this happen under @NZLabour? Coster was an Ardern appointment - 'a surprise pick for the top job.' Overlooked Deputy Commissioner Mike Clement had led the investigation into historical sexual complaints against the Police. Clement. The right man all along.

The brave heterodox thinker Sabine Hossenfelder, agreeing with her brave heterodox bot friend Why do these academic titans always have such a hard time differentiating bot slop from their own revolutionary thinking
In a few years, Americans will see that the only consequence of defunding parts of academia was fewer publications which no one cares about anyway. What will happen next?

You’d be forgiven for thinking this guy was a promising young rugby player credibly accused of beating his wife the way that institutions closed ranks to protect him
Absolutely horror IPCA report on how the Police handled complaints against McSkimming. A woman who said she had a sexual relationship with him when she was 21 and he was 40 made complaints about him and instead of taking it seriously they prosecuted her under the HDCA.

The FSU thinks that the private suppression of speech is bad
If disagreement costs you opportunities, do we really have free speech?

And let us not forget the conscientious objectors. The echoes of their bravery will ring through corridors of our town halls for generations to come
On this armistice day, we remember those proud boomers who so selflessly gave their lives that we may be free

There was rapturous applause from attendees at the FSU AGM, most presumably FSU members, after Brian Tamaki advocated banning “foreign” religions. FSU board members and panellists won’t say Tamaki’s position is contrary to FSU values. Free speech for Tamaki, but not themselves?

@NZFreeSpeech .@GayleneBarnes70 does not seem to want to say that banning “foreign” religions is contrary to the values of the FSU. Speak up, Gaylene. Be brave. Let not your speech be stifled! https://t.co/fi2vDtquys
@GayleneBarnes70 @Dane_Giraud @NZFreeSpeech @BrianTamakiNZ @chrislynchmedia @franks_lawyer So, I ask again, is his call to ban other religions contrary to the Free Speech Union's stated values?
