They at least approve of a system where the exchange of currency for carbohydrates is a good system, especially since they gain wealth from it. They also agree with a system where if you have enough money they will sell you whatever you wan

Definitely agree on these points! And I'm not trying to shift people to feeling guilty or pushing to "make a difference" as much as examine how inaction is also a choice that can matter. As you point out, though, as an indivi

Yup. It could. However, the key isn't necessarily video recordings. It's deliberately practicing individual things you are bad at in isolation until you are good at them. We need to record LoL and StarCraft games because it's

Uh, your definition literally says "by unexpressed agreement"? So, agreement not by words, but by implied means (action or inaction) seems a fitting usage of the word tacit. Similarly, from the definition of tacit from which tacit

Honest question, care to elaborate? From my perspective opting out means no change. And no change means structures stay the same. Therefore, they persist and are maintained with your (weak) approval. This is different from not taking a side

Not disagreeing, and honestly it's much faster to do in a pan. Still, I also understand the appeal. More precise, less issues if something interrupts you, and perhaps the best benefit is batch cooking steaks. Especially when starting,
