I didn’t even know this was possible. Looks like my current oven may be able to do it - it has a ticking timer knob - but pretty sure all previous ones didn’t have this feature.

Other than the use case you have mentioned I can’t see any reason to use it. It would be annoying to have the oven turn off before the food is cooked to perfection, which it rarely is at a prescribed time

This is the situation I am in right now. It hasn’t happened for months but I really needed to catch up on sleep, apparently. It used to happen all the time and I would just pull all nighters but that started giving me really bad anxiety when I’d have to go out into the world on no sleep.

Thinking I’ll just take whatever sleep I can get then force myself out of bed in the morning, and try not to lose the plot with the irritating people I have to deal with at college.

Does melatonin work well for you?

In this question I was more specifically referring to the psychological warfare between citizens, in the quest for dominance and control in the social hierarchy present in our societies

Just imagine how bad it is for the employees

Dogwhistle sounds pretty accurate

Whilst this has some truth to it, it is a gross oversimplification

Thanks for this!

Yeah, any example will do.

Seconded Wikipedia. The amount of knowledge that can be gleaned in mere minutes from Wikipedia is insane. It contains enough information to do most stuff, aside from blatantly illegal things.
