Because the steak was burned and didn't taste good. But the guy specifically told me to say that i tastes amazing and to even exaggerate.

I read that the first time, too. But the same question remains.

Why did you feel like you had to lie?

Would love to learn if it exists too. I use it often.

The only other way I know how to CAD is https://github.com/pythonscad/pythonscad

I've done toastmasters a long time a go, and it really benefits me till today.

I'm sorry your anger doesn't allow you to see the connection between the technical implementation, and philosophy of www, and your own answer to OPs question.

I think it's dangerous to be unscathed by governments deciding which publishers publish "truth", and which don't.

To not care if the "law" applies to 100% of the population, or only 95%. Some more equal under the law than others.

I bring up 3, because the idea behind www was to counteract the points above.

Imagine the same techniques used by a government you do not agree with. It's very scary, no?

Some thoughts: (1) networks don't necessarily run according to judicial borders.
(2) you also have to penalize the use of rerouting tools, which Brazil seems to have done.
(3) it became incorrect to refer to it as "world wide web"

More than that. The Brazil government made it illegal for it's citizens to access the site, as well as the use of a VPN. (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blocking_of_Twitter_in_Brazil, chapter 'Blocking').

I think it's a swell idea, banning your citizens from reading information you decide is wrong.

Apparently, it works by fining users that visit the site. See chapter "Blocking".

How nice, a government that puts criminal penalties on it's citizens reading the (according to them) wrong things. Banning technologies like VPNs.

It's short sighted indeed.
