Welcome to the staging ground for new communities! Each proposal has a description in the "Descriptions" category and a body of questions and answers in "Incubator Q&A". You can ask questions (and get answers, we hope!) right away, and start new proposals.

"Home Improvement" isn't the most descriptive name, but it is something many people will be familiar with. This site should be about the structure and systems of a residential building. That incl...
OSB boards often have a stamp that says "strength axis" with an arrow, usually parallel with the longer dimension of the board. What is this strength axis? Should it be parallel or perpendicular t...
In North America, it is common to build wood-frame houses with pieces of lumber making up the frame and OSB boards acting as wall sheathing. The OSB sheathing reinforces the frame against various ...
Codidact is rather strongly centered around the idea of voting on content. Personally, I am open to revisit the manner in which we rank and asses content on the network, but for the time being, tha...
Yeah, it is pretty much a lost tech. CRT times are over. And "feature rich" sells better than "feature poor", therefore the smart hype. It sounds that you actually not looking for a TV but need a ...
I'm OK with all of your points except equipment recommendations and possibly E-sports. Equipment recommendations Shopping questions or "which model should I get" are a bad fit for this kind of si...
How do I switch between weapon aiming modes? I must have tapped something on my keyboard by mistake, since my weapon no longer aims in the optic sight, but in third person instead.
I'll note that this won't fully answer the question, because I don't know the modern academic scene to provide a "consensus." Maybe that makes for a bad first answer, here, and for that, I apologi...
Wikipedia's article on intentional communities has a short list: Creating a life together, Diana Leafe Christian - Amazon reviews seem good, and the blurb says it is a "how to"... Although it al...
The situation sounds like a "David vs Goliath", "Kevin home alone" or "Die hard" kind of scenario. Therefore my idea would be that the Char resorts to cunning, dexterity/agility (if shi is faster ...
Backstory I had an idea of a large project to breed specialized soldiers who will be used to fight and kill members of a story-specific group known for being super powered. Theses soldiers are bre...
How I do prevent kelp from continuing to grow past a certain height? For aesthetic purposes, I'd like to keep it to a specific height.
Let's first consider the side of those who have a question. If you have a question, you want an answer. Now there are two ways to get an answer: You find that someone already asked what you want t...
What are some developed ethical theories and frameworks regarding killing? For example, is it ever ethically justified to kill? When, under what circumstances, and why?
I want to buy an electrical device for cold smoking food. From what I read, the temperature of the food must stay below 80F for cold smoking. When I search for electrical smokers, most products qu...
In order to understand Gödel’s theorems, one must first explain the key concepts essential to it, such as “formal system”, “consistency”, and “completeness”. Roughly, a formal system is a system ...
I think there may be a common fallacy which I do not know if it has been given a name and a fully developed, possibly mathematical, argument. The idea is something like a basic fallacy of assuming...
The following is cross-posted from Stack Exchange for catching my eye: Schopenhauer already defined "intentionality". There is a part in his philosophy where he separates representation into subj...
When I work with wood in my garage, it quickly fills with sawdust. Everything in the garage gets covered with a film of dust. Many of my tools have dust extraction ports. I know some people get sp...
I've tried this out with some equipment I have on hand. Generally, yes, a household vacuum will work as a dust collector, but it's not as effective or convenient. For occasional use, it might be be...
I think utilitarianism would provide an answer to this. Knowledge like mathematical theorems, scientific findings, folklore and literature poses hardly any threat to privacy while the benefit of f...
I'm confused why you would bother buying grounding wire. Grounding wire is intended to only carry ground, which shouldn't ever be more than a few volts from other ground, like metal water pipes. ...
Hello. I have seen that the post view isn't shown. But it would be very helpful to see post views. Please add it.

Google Groups, which comes with all free Google accounts, can be used to set up a mailing list. It also integrates with the rest of Google resources, so for example you can share a calendar with a ...
