Did Kemal Ataturk really have a full menagerie all named abdul?

Dam I feel so sorry for you :( At first I thought like gp, bypass it, then I realized you don't have the privilege to bypass it and leave trails behind. It's not like using a vpn to watch netflix of another country, as netflix won't knock on your door.

When every company at once throws it at you it seems like something different. Someone called it baffleware. It's all too much to track/account for/adjust to, so you just comply. Kind of like Trump and Project 2025, but it's being done on a corporate level on everything in our lives.

I did this once and one time was forced into doing it and it was a horrific nightmare. The lack of contra for my legs meant I was constantly slipping forward, it was tiring. The fact that this is an emergency seat made it worse - there was no handle for the hand because of some bullshit. The flight attendant policed every action I did from putting my jacket on to eating with the attachable tray. I will never do it again even if it means I fly for free.

One of the most relaxed flights I ever had I was window seat in the back row with a pleasant elderly couple. When everyone else was busy queuing to get off the plane they were sat knitting. I'd got into my novel and just sat enjoying it until they moved. Far less stressful than the usual madness.

Industries have come and gone for centuries and it doesn't always go horribly wrong.

Can this be solved by a random clock? A clock which never tells you the real time - it adds randomly 1-10 mins every morning

My question is if people can't adapt to it, would it be a helpful technique?

It would be interesting to experiment with providing people only with a sundial. :)))))
