If you still can't figure it out, have GeekSquad or someone look into it.

sigh... my punishment for not getting it is to explain it, though I'm sure most of you can see it already (now):
RINGMASTER, as in a circus, is the chief whip (look out, lions)
MASTER is an expert
on call = RING (the telephone)

I could ask the same question regarding "global warming" or the even more encompassing term, "climate change" (a natural process made to appear evil by the Agenda 21 advocates because global warming was proven to be fake news).

When a thread is moved to the soapbox, but there's no one there to hear it, does it still make a sound?

You can replace the words 'science' and 'scientific' with the subject of your choice: health, computers, school policy, etc.
I understand your point; much of what is written is a thinly veiled opinion piece that hardly rises to the level of 'journalism'.
The other day, in my home town, a 'reporter' wrote an opinion piece about students lying to their parents when snow days were declared. By implication in the article, she said "all students" are saying there is no teaching, just kids sitting around playing with electronics. Her 'visit' to the school revealed teachers willing to work with students. She also said the students should all be at school - but ignored the fact the buses couldn't run because of icy roads and not all families have the means to drive their children to school. Oh.. and, if it is too icy to drive, why would we tell the children to walk?

Freedom of speech?
Just look at all the other trash they publish. If it's not at least yet another doomsday, it's not good enough for them to publish. Or at least a few aliens with sinister plans. That's the kind of stuff they make their money with, not serious journalism.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.

Completely OT but...OriginalGriff wrote: mine are all muted by default
I didn't even know this was an option (Chrome pre-build 64 it wasn't unless you had an add-on) Thank you!  Also, would an OT type icon be too much?

Handy, isn't it? And you can right click a tab and "Unmute site" to get rid of the icon for CP, and hear Youtube without problems later. But new sites (and their Elephanting adverts?) - blessed silence.
I discovered this after hearing that "Brit method" pop-up scam shouting at me for the n-th time...

No command 'get' found
Why do I have to type git into a git console anyway, can't you just imply it?
|

Because git is, well, git.

Oh, git on with it

You gotta get git while the gettin's good.
