I'm not trying to be a dick, but there is nothing stopping you from self regulating. We watch one episode of mst3k as a family Sunday night. Popcorn, lights off, huddled under blankets on the floor. If anything, it's more special

Also why are they small federal government states rights for things but big federal government centralized power for this? It doesn't make sense to me.

What's the phrase? Think about how stupid the average person is, and then remember that half of everyone is stupider than that.

Not sex, violence. Somewhere along the way we decided that kids can't see boobs until they're 21, but should be fine watching people get murdered. I don't have the words for it, but it seems like everyone is fine with MASSIVE

That's the nice thing about completely unsubstantiated, baseless claims on the Internet, if it ever happens, you can always point at it like you're Nostradamus. My predictions: Actual zombie president in 2044. New COVID in 2061. D

Is it? I'm fairly certain many countries have had a very strong showing from nationalist parties in recent years, or am I way off base?

Neat but as soon as I clicked it, a recipe for Turkish pasta came up and it hijacked the back button.

I think you should have all the different models complete the same task and get different clocks going for each. That might be funnier.

Everyone should switch to a local credit union. The rates are better, they're entirely local, and they're usually not trying to actively screw you.

>AI is certainly not reliable enough for me to jeopardize the quality of my work by using it heavily. I mean this in sincerity, and not at all snarky, but - have you considered that you haven't used the tools correctly or effectivel

That's what people aren't understanding, it seems. You are providing people with an endlessly patient, endlessly novel, endlessly naive employee to attempt your social engineering attacks on. Over and over and over. Hell, it will

If the malware that exploits my machine also runs off the eggplant emoji drive, I'm becoming Amish.

It's because people are commodities now. Human resources exists to manage the shuffle between warm bodies. It's back to OP's point. There's no such thing as professions now. Just jobs. We put them on and off like hats. W

How is fascism even slightly appealing? Violence and chaos for anyone with "wrong" ideas, or friends, or genealogy. One man dictating your life choices and options. State control of quite literally everything you do, with the thre

I had a friend growing up who ate with his mouth open. I fucking hated it. But he had problems breathing through his nose due to something with his soft tissue in his throat. So, you learn to ignore it.

We installed an outdoor shower at our house. There's nothing as nice as a cold shower outdoors on a really hot day. It feels so luxurious that I can pretend I'm a rich person instead of lower- to mid-middle class. We live way out

When did it become cool for full grown adults to start dunking on college kids? What is that about? Why do they generally always target college kids for that kind of thing instead of, hell I don't know, nursing homes or construction si

>Jakarta is definitely for the adventurous though, and you had better have an iron stomach. I love, love, loved backpacking across quite a bit of southeast Asia. I did not like the massive gastrointestinal problems nearly the entire time

Cashless payments, always connected software and devices, and required app use for basic services like power, water, and heat as well as extreme data collection as it exists today makes dropping out of society more difficult than ever. Whil

I don't think that's what they're implying. They're simply saying that careful planning isn't necessarily always what's needed. Consider carefully your sentences before making deep moral judgements about people

That's a very morality based argument. In general, those types of arguments aren't great and don't really serve a purpose outside of letting the individual take the moral high ground for whatever reason. I had to rely on food

Cows seem to inherently know when it's down, and choose rainy nights exclusively to go on a tear around the neighbor's fields instead of my own. We had pigs for one terrible year. Pigs know when the electric fence is down because

I had a college professor who steadfastly believed that pork was a no go because pigs get sunburned. Not because they're resource and time intensive. Not because they're intelligent and weirdly similar to humans. Sunburns. I have

The out of touch leader is a trope that I'm willing to bet has existed as long as we've had leaders. I remember first hearing the phrase "yes man" in relation to a human ass kisser my dad worked with in like 1988. It&#x2

Missing pets are because people don't spend enough time with their animals to form a pack attachment (for dogs) and cats just don't give a shit. Or. . . The encroachment of suburbs in currently rural areas means coyotes and pets c

That's a very pessimistic was to view things, I think. We're only given one chance; rich, poor, all of us. One shot. You have to try to do the best with what you have. Nothing changes when you have a big loss, only if you let noth

See, I never swore off beef, even with that. I took it as a reason to make sure they live their best lives, and to do my best to ensure that their deaths are as quick and painless as possible. I understand the hypocrisy or whatever that mig
