I just can't relate, I guess. I never wanted to reach a certain kg number; whenever I wanted to alter my weight, I just did it until I reached a state I was content with. I've gone from ~15 kg under to ~15 kg over, back to normal

In my experience you're not going to maintain that exact weight anyway. If I wanted to lose 2 kg, I would dehydrate myself for a day and the weight is gone. Why not lose weight until you feel good, instead of setting some arbitrary exa

How is 2-3 kg even an issue? I mean, for what reason would anyone say "I need to lose 2 kg"? What difference does it make? I'm a little bit underweight and my weight naturally fluctuates by +/- ~2 kg from one week to the

I'm only sticking to Firefox because there's a specific set of extensions I want to keep using. If only one of my key extensions breaks, my last reason to use Firefox vanishes, and I will immediately switch to Chromium/Iridiu

/r/all is fine if you use RES and filter all the shit. My filter list is hundreds of entries long and I for one enjoy browsing /r/all now.

I'm actually german and I do not agree with those laws at all. I'm not even affected by them, I just happen to think that free and unrestricted speech is most important and should apply to everyone and anyone, regardless of what i

What is actually distorting perception is pressuring Facebook to delete free speech without any legal basis, because the government defines it as "hate speech". No one knows the exact definition of "hate speech" though.

I'm a subscriber for a couple weeks now, and I've run out of content I'd like to watch in my free month. The homepage is filled with stuff I'll never watch, and I can't even tell them that fact. There is no button t

I don't know what the app is about, I have never even used an Apple product in all my live. But I admire this guy for not bowing to the demands of Apple. Sticking to your principles, even when that means you're losing money (or, a

Before the Internet, people eventually forgot what mistakes you made in the past. If there were records, not everyone had access to them and they eventually expired. Don't you see the problem when every mistake you ever made, or even w

I'm a programmer and in my opinion "active code", in this context, implies there is actual code expressly written to fulfill a task (i.e., to not allow homosexuals to match). While in this case, substantial parts are missing

Oh, and it actually, honestly didn't cross my mind once that I'm bisexual myself when I made this argument. So it should not say "they" in my comment above, but rather "we". My sexuality is not that important t

If there are plenty alternatives available, and the express purpose of the building is something the disabled in question are inherently unfit for, then yes, then I'm opposed to such laws. Being homosexual is not a handicap, and they a

I don't know anything about the law in question, but if it's only about protecting minorities, it creates the situation where gay-only sites are lawful, while hetero-only sites are illegal. I think that's pretty bad.

Your examples are not applicable because, as far as I understand it, they would have to implement additional features to allow for same-sex matches. There's no "no gays allowed" code on their site. Your examples are examples

So they have been ordered to implement additional features into their website to make same-sex matches possible, for types of users they don't want on their site in the first place? I don't think that's right.

If you make an accusation, especially one like this, that could easily destroy the life of the accused, of course you have to prove your claim. Innocent until proven guilty. It's perfectly sound logic, it applies to anyone regardless o
