And Grindr, apparently...but I not sure which is least exploitative, fortunately not needing to use those myself!

The dating apps are mostly owned by one company (the Match Group) and basically designed to not get people into a permanent relationship - the podcast Land of the Giants just did a series on dating apps and their issues that may very informative for anyone using them.

Reply to Ben Lomond [oc] [2504×3805] by LemonChicken157
Remember climbing Ben Lomond from the Loch up the steep side - harder than I expected, but a spectacular view from the top!

Interestingly "the" Rosetta Stone was only one of many copies - "According to the inscription on the Stone, an identical copy of the declaration was to be placed in every sizeable temple across Egypt. Whether this happened is unknown, but copies of the same bilingual, three-script decree have now been found and can be seen in other museums. The Rosetta Stone is thus one of many mass-produced stelae designed to widely disseminate an agreement issued by a council of priests in 196 BC. In fact, the text on the Stone is a copy of a prototype that was composed about a century earlier in the 3rd century BC. Only the date and the names were changed!" https://www.britishmuseum.org/blog/everything-you-ever-wanted-know-about-rosetta-stone

Yes this is a very big deal and showing up in many areas of science. Very hard to detect by just reading a manuscript - the scientific community needs to figure out a way to detect these and prevent them corrupting the system.
