Looking at that Snopes article you linked, how can you possibly describe such a thing as simple ? there isn't a single cost in the US to compare against a single cost in Denmark. It's impossible to give a absolute true/fals

That's great for you, but it gives you no excuse to make other people uncomfortable just because you don't think a joke is too far. And no, saying "it's just a joke" isn't an apology.

Hunting around for free cPanel hosting was essentially my part time job when I was 12-18. Many of them required certain forum activity too, so it could get time consuming.

I've never liked the argument "how many shoe bombs have been intercepted?" or "how many terrorists have been stopped?" when it comes to TSA-style security. The presence of the security isn't necessarily meant

This has nothing to do with censorship. This person is saying it is irresponsible for Rogan to entertain and provide a platform for these things.

This may seem like a silly question but I'm genuinely curious... are there are concerns about harnessing too much power from wind and affecting global climate, air currents, etc? It seams far fetched, but we are removing energy from

I agree it's not a great metaphor, but my point is that "let everyone make their own decisions" isn't some end-all argument. All rules and laws in society are about not letting people do whatever they want for the ben

I'm tired of prudes telling me I can't drink and drive. Let everyone make their own decisions. Everyone else can stay home or drive sober if they want, but we shouldn't prevent the rest of society from having fun!

I didn't know blueprints were added! The lack of them is why I stopped soon after traveling to another planet. I might give it another try now...

That is an interesting point I hadn't considered. It seems to me that, unless this new service will be in the business of directly funding or creating their own content, it would be morally wrong for them to engage in exclusive content

There is no inherent divide. If this was marketed as only for Black people, other races are not welcome to watch, sure. If this company was vocally against Netflix and demanding Black people watch this instead, sure. As far as I can

You're setting the same trap as those viral math problems people share on Facebook: 6÷2(1+2) = ? We could argue about what the _right_ answer is to that equation, but I call it a trap because it's intentionally confusing and devoi

I think their point is that we use our 10 fingers to count to a value of 10. We can use our 10 fingers to represent 0 (no fingers) through 10 (all 10 fingers). This is essentially base 11 if you try to assign a specific digit to each fing

Robbery and murder are already illegal. Why are we criminalizing motivations for crime instead of trying to prevent crime? Do you you think drug-related robbery and murder would decrease if we simply provided free drugs to anybody who want

You posted your opinion, a very broad statement suggesting it was bad for certain people to believe something. They countered your opinion with their own, stating your opinion was ignorant and offered an example as to why. This is a discu

Makes sense, it's not for everyone. I will note that someone who does enjoy the game would never describe themselves as having "finished" it, there is always more to expand, more to optimize, etc. Not to mention all the mods
