You're agreeing with them. Philosophy doesn't protect you from meaninglessness, like you said, looking at things rationally, our lives are meaningless in the long term. Religion helps get rid of that feeling of meaninglessness b

They're not talking about multiple sessions, they're talking about people advocating psychodelics who often claim that magic mushrooms are a wonder drug that you take once and it completely changes your outlook on life.

Some categories are blocked, like daycare and schools. They'll also prevent anything from showing up, pokemon included, from areas that don't have recognized roads or paths. There is a park near my house that has a paved path th

I know I've accidentally done it before. There's enough movies that take place in international locations that it isn't uncommon for a movie to start out subtitled while setting up the plot, then switch over to English with

What's your solution? You could give it a super wide base so it has trouble fitting in places people normally put filing cabinets, or make the body so heavy that having all the drawers full and pulled out won't tip it over?

Dota 2 has a similar store for cosmetics, but also includes the ability to sell them on the steam community market, giving Valve a 15% cut in addition to the money they made on the initial sale. People are willing to spend a lot of money g

From what I can tell by reading what Go developers write, they like it precisely because it's not something to get excited over. It seems like the kind of language where once you learn it, you don't have to keep up with a bunch o

If they're doing LEO satellites like SpaceX, the latency is typically under 100ms. The super high latency satellite internet is from satellites in geosynchronous orbit.

I think game/app developers getting children hooked on gambling through lootboxes is evil, and that's out in the open. Luckily governments are starting to crack down on it.

Active duty care is bad as well. A running joke in the military is that "motrin and water" is a miracle cure because it's the only thing you'll get prescribed without a ton of doctor visits. I personally know of two pe

I wonder if they knew they'd get the negative reception, and that's why they offered a discount on multi-year subscriptions earlier this year. I bought a multi-year contract before they raised their monthly price, and from what I&

Another way I've seen statistics misused when advocating for gun control is bringing up the high number of "mass shootings" any time an event makes the news. The majority of "mass shootings" are gang violence, but

I think they're synonomous, but the key part to me is that "lying" is directly related to "liar", whereas "untruthful" doesn't have that relation with another word, at least to my knowledge. So sayin

In theory, requiring full scale war disincentivizes war, so a peaceful solution is more likely. If targeted assassinations became the norm, you'd probably end up in a scenario where the country with the most advanced assassination tec
