  1. The iTunes backup should be a sequential backup, which means it is added on to what's already there.
  2. @ImplicitDemandsYou've had some solid advice given here that I don't think you will anywhere on any other other random forum. None of us are spring chickens (young) and have been around many of the issues in getting through life. My avatar is from my mid-late forties iirc and I'm 62 now.
  3. I was thinking that too. Nine pages is long enough.
  4. If a person can physically have sex with another, but doesn't, they are NOT involuntary celibates. It's not a case of can't, but won't. It's a state of wilful inaction, then blaming someone else by proxy. ImplicitDemands is not an involuntary celibate, they have created demands that are unreasonable. The 'obstacles' are of their own creation. The outcome of this behaviour is a forgone conclusion. This is by design for reasons only they know.
  5. It was mostly an Irish activity this side of the pond and was called 'Poteen' (Po-cheen).
  6. Incel is a movement that has misapplied the term 'involuntary celibacy' to suit their agenda.
  7. Involuntarily celibate, but they are not incels, which is a movement of emotionally disturbed men projecting their issues onto women as the cause of their problems. They aren't actually involuntarily celibate, their state is self induced.
  8. If you call yourself an 'incel' you are proactively identifying with a subculture, this is distinguished from those who are involuntarily celibate via physical trauma, genetics etc. I don't think the latter would call themselves 'incels'.
  9. From what I understand about Lithium ion is that trying to recharge a battery that has been discharged below the actual minimum safe discharge level, 2.7v, which is lower than the designed automatic cutoff voltage, 3v, creates the possibility of producing elemental lithium. Caused by a faulty voltage detection component, for example. Lithium's reaction with oxygen is highly exothermic... The safest behaviour with them is to recharge when the device says so at about 20% charge left. Going lower degrades the battery and its service life.
  10. You've worked on your body, now work on your mind. I'm voluntarily celibate, by the way; 30 years. I've never worked on my appearance, and yet still managed to organically attract women, when I was interested. Ultimately, I think, people see what they see in a potential partner in their 'mind's eye', and not with their physical eyes. If all your idiosyncrasies, attitude, character, personality add up to an appealing aesthetic vision, they will likely be attracted to you. If you focus on your appearance exclusively, you will only attract those that have the same superficial aesthetic values. You are focusing on things about yourself that are attracting the wrong kind of woman for you.
  11. What has that got to do with the question? There is zero difference between them, but how they are used for respiration, they have different processes to achieve the same goal i.e. energy production.
  12. If it was normal, you wouldn't be here. Find that person you like, but don't judge those that don't fit your standards. If you want to look for a Dodo egg that is your choice, but don't blame everybody else for your failure to find one.
  13. Plant and mammalian organisms require different metabolic pathways, enzymes to directly break them down for respiration that is suitable for each system. Mammalian metabolism requires extra steps for plant-based fatty acids to be useful in respiration.
  14. It is criminal that Jane Seymour or Jenny Agutter never noticed me. People like who they like, it should not come with an expectation of reciprocation from ones (distant) muse. I've always been myself, reasoning that if I try and fit a target audience, the friendship/relationship won't last long because of my insincerity.
  15. Cuba was as well. My grandad was a ground crew chief on Vulcans at the time. They carried Blue Steel standoff nuclear bombs. He said he was constantly on-call.
  16. Now that they have low yield options down to 1KT, and probably less, MAD is becoming increasingly obsolete, I think.
  17. Oops, I've turned them into quantum objects.
  18. They are just a bunch of virtual signalers that don't give shit.
  19. Are you in favour of legislatively forcing that woman to transfer the foetus rather than aborting it?
  20. Is that the annalemma?
  21. "OH!... you naughty boy... have some more sweets."
  22. StringJunky replied to iNow's topic in Politics
  23. Where are they getting their sources? Is it just a mish-mash of stuff they hold locally and collated from that?
