That’s not what I said at all if you read my comment. I said immigrants, who are educated, vote like the rest of the educated do. I also said because the GOP has racist policies, it’s actively hostile to immigrants. Your oversimplification

It’s because legal immigrants are overwhelmingly well educated so they vote like the average well educated American does. It also doesn’t help that the current GOP is more or less openly racist so a vote for them goes against basic self pre

Well this product is probably already healthier than actual bacon though not nearly as nutritious.

There’s a difference here though. Someone could decide to do something and have it ready to go the next day with a prime delivery and like a hundred bucks.

I don’t think you can do this anymore, cats out of the bag. I mean hypothetically anyone can kill someone with a drone right now and it would be pretty hard to track down who did it. Just have a drone with a gun or knife attached and fly do

White flight was unadulterated racism. It wasn’t because the black family that moved down the street started being violent. It’s because whites did not want to live on the same street as them. Of course caucasians would be a victim of ~90%

Well overall happiness is intangible. If we base it on tangibles like easy access to food, convenient and cheap transportation, safety and security, health care, recreation, mortality rate, access to information etc. there’s no comparison.

I’m going to get pushback but the far right has really made it easy for the common person to look away. All that hate has made it easy to get the general public to not care when privacy is being taken away. They always ruin everything.

I don’t know how to say it but it feels like it has no gravitas. Like the original lord of the rings had gravitas, battlefield galactic a has gravitas, the wire has gravitas. What’s making this so… bland? It’s not just the writing I presume

I think there’s a second order effect here you’re not seeing. Social acceptance makes imbibing orders of magnitude less stressful and you can still call yourself a “normal” person while doing it. I think that makes a huge difference.

But every culture has been using intoxicants to change their head space for as far back as we can see. Everything from marijuana, alcohol, hallucinogens, dissociative, stimulants etc. as and everyday part of human life. Might we not have ev

I’m optimistic too, not always though. Atleast I know the source on my unhappiness. I just dislike working in a team. I’ve taken a few years off between jobs and those have been the happiest years of my life. I have plenty of hobbies and do

The rate of change of acceleration is going to be massive in a cannon though. That intuitively feels worse than very high acceleration but with a more gradual increase in the rate of change.

No, I could spend all day at the beach for the rest of my life. Same with hiking desert climates. Same with spending all my time in my wood and metal shop.

Yes, I realize there are varying degrees and in many if not most cases it makes sense. There are a very small number of cases that are an unbearable burden on the entire system and if not checked it will bring the whole house down for every

Yeah but is it worth the hundreds of thousands or possibly millions that the tax payers had to pay for that to be possible for him? My answer is a firm no. It’s not cruel, you have to draw the line somewhere. I could say it’s cruel I can’t

Special Ed is as stupid as doing open heart surgeries on 85 year olds to give them 3 extra years. They’re an enormous burden on the system and are ruining everything for almost all of us. Why do severely mentally handicapped kids even need

What are you referring to. The graphics were stunning? Are you referring to the tiny number of low poly assets like the oil pipe refilling the fuel? There were maybe 10 of those in the entire video.

This isn’t better. I don’t have a default mail client and a lot of people don’t. You could open up the browser page to login but by the time you’re logged in all context is lost and you won’t get the pre setup outgoing mail ready to click s

There is a copilot for that. I think you’re making programming seem more intricate than it is. It can build a crud app. It can build distributed systems. It can write web3 contracts. There’s not a whole lot besides that except maybe rare st

Shipping water isn’t expensive. Southern California has been doing it for decades. It’s a steep initial investment but not a prohibitively expensive system to maintain.

No, I agree with environmental protection but fundamentally disagree with your live small mindset. We can do both, we sustainable and be highly technologically progressive at the same time.

Disagree. You could say that about any monument but really over the long term that’s what builds culture and meaning.
