Why is it better for me to turn it off globally than for you to ignore it? I can think of reasonable answers to that—I just want to understand the opp...

As for downloading, you can just do Ctrl+p and then save as PDF. This will work on the new site (you can try it here on another Discourse forum) and a...

It sounds like you're talking about ongoing discussions, but all the discussions on the archive site will be finished, static, frozen in time. So I'm ...

The archive will exist as a website, where you will be able to see all the discussions and posts. It will have some kind of search functionality, and ...

I heard that they also brought the technique of growing almonds and other fruits on hillside terraces. Those terraces still remain and give the landsc...

I heard that bomba rice was originally brought to Spain by the Moors too.

Nice interaction. The way to a man's heart is pity. I noticed many date palms in Spain. I don't know if they're harvested.
November 19, 2025 at 05:59
The content will be preserved but it won't look or work like the existing site. It depends how much time I spend on building it. Searching by author o...

I'll have all the data and I'll be able to provide members with a posts export on request. In fact I might provide it at the archive site.

Kant wrote his massive tome to show this is wrong.
November 18, 2025 at 09:16
Sent me to sleep, that one. I may try again one day.
November 18, 2025 at 07:16
Yeah that's more like it :grin:

As Wayfarer might be about to point out, this is the problematic Enlightenment notion of reason which is in question.
November 18, 2025 at 06:59
This is totally a live chat situation
November 18, 2025 at 06:56
Yer aff yer heid.
November 18, 2025 at 06:52
Sorry.
November 18, 2025 at 06:37
No frito? No escalfados? (I had to use Google Translate for poached. I never ordered poached eggs in Spain.)
November 18, 2025 at 06:29
Yo: huevos

Yes, on the new platform you'll be able to mute topics and whole categories, so that they don't appear on the /latest page. We can always make subcate...
November 17, 2025 at 15:00
I've made the home page of the new site show topics from all categories ordered by most recent, just like here. But unlike here, if you go to the "All...
November 17, 2025 at 13:58
It won't be invitation-only and you'll be able to just go to the site and sign up yourself. I'll be making an announcement when it's open for new sign...
November 17, 2025 at 11:20
Even if they're on old-fashioned software I think we should celebrate the continuing existence of independent discussion forums. Not everyone wants to...
November 17, 2025 at 11:01
Yes, I had a look at that when I was researching NodeBB. To be fair—and because I'm reflexively argumentative—dull isn't necessarily bad for a forum, ...
November 17, 2025 at 07:09
Well, I'm planning on having a Lounge at the new place too, although I want it to be different: https://i.postimg.cc/Nj7yhLVt/Screenshot-from-2025-11-...
November 17, 2025 at 06:05
:cool: :up: You can use a new email address at the new site, and you can change your email address here as well if you like.
November 17, 2025 at 05:44
Fair question. I'm sure Communiteq is good but I think we're better off long-term with Discourse.org. My strategy is to go with the official premium p...
November 17, 2025 at 05:35
See the above. Chatrooms can be expanded to fill the main page panel. We can configure this. Right now I've got it saving the chat messages forever.
November 16, 2025 at 15:02
I actually only just realized that you can search within a discussion here on PlushForums, I mean without going to the Advanced Options page. Doh!
November 16, 2025 at 14:57
Yeah :grin: Yep, no paging, either in chat or in regular discussions. But there are other ways of navigating within a discussion, and you can easily s...
November 16, 2025 at 14:48
:up: The Shoutbox won't be the same, but in my opinion it won't be worse. It never really belonged among the discussions, and this has caused problems...
November 16, 2025 at 14:13
I don't get it. How could a live chat not function as a "community posting room"? Granted, I don't really know what it means.
November 16, 2025 at 13:05
Can people please put these comments in the dedicated thread. I may have to consult things that come up regarding features and I don't want to have to...
November 16, 2025 at 12:36
All of that can be done in live chat, unless I'm missing something. I'm not saying no—just trying to establish what people think the live chat will be...
November 16, 2025 at 12:32
I want the sites to be separate so I'll transfer thephilosophyforum.com to the new site and use something else for the archive.
November 16, 2025 at 08:20
The number of posts will be visible on the user's profile, but not within discussions. Incidentally, aside from the number of posts we will have other...
November 16, 2025 at 08:07
Indeed :up: Well, I've made progress in setting it up already, but unfortunately I can't open it up until everything is sorted out legally, I have a b...
November 16, 2025 at 07:22
Existing members will have to sign up to join the new site. This is essential for legal compliance, because this is where you will agree to the new Ac...
November 16, 2025 at 07:16
These are good questions so I'll reply in the dedicated thread.
November 16, 2025 at 07:04
I admire your perspective.
November 16, 2025 at 06:34
Hmm. But let's be fair:
November 15, 2025 at 21:25
I want a golden boy.
November 15, 2025 at 18:28
An interesting question, PC. Maybe you could start a dedicated discussion topic.
November 15, 2025 at 15:29
There's another ham and cheese sandwich I like, called "The Jamal." It's a grilled cheese sandwich but there are slices of ham in the middle. The key ...
November 15, 2025 at 10:22
There are a couple of problems with the use of olive oil in @"Outlander"'s sandwich. First, it would be absorbed by the soft, thin bread, which will b...

@"T Clark" @"Banno" You're behaving like children. Stop it and go to your beds right now.
November 14, 2025 at 21:04
Yes, they're all petty tyrants who need to compensate for their lack of status in real life by wielding authority anonymously in their own little digi...
November 14, 2025 at 10:06
Yes, I find all his lectures are like that. Yep. Being critical or negative is a necessity, not just an evasion of philosophical responsibilities.
