With credit cards the disputed charges will still decrease your credit limit, no? So the functional difference is much smaller than you think.

Tobbaco smoking does not have any practical uses for us, it's just a bad habit. On the other hand, being able to drive a car is a huge benefit for our quality of life, so we accept that it comes with some cost.

The keyword here is “reasonably”. What I hate the most is “lifestyle abortion” when a woman says she’s not ready for a baby, but at the same time treats sex like a cheap entertainment, fucking her way through dozens of guys.

Also, "global warming" could be considered a good thing by many people. I mean, who likes cold weather? So we went from positive term, to neutral, and I guess we shift to some negative one next.

Intel: i3/i5/i7/i9 AMD Ryzen: 3/5/7/9 Looks pretty straightforward to me: higher number - better processor. Now between M1 Pro, Max and Ultra how can you tell which one is supposed to be better ? :)

It's not even about confidence. It's a matter of being in control. When you drive you can do something about whether or not you crash. When you are a passenger in a plane or train you are completely helpless.
