This is a good question. I couldn't find statistics for striking parked vehicles, but apparently there's something like 20000 accidents a year involving Emergency vehicles. [0] [0] https://journals.sagepub.com/do

If anything, the events of the last week have proven it's the right choice.

If they can stabilize it without human rights abuses, then good for them.

I don't think the common understanding of either moral relativism or hedonism categorizes them as nihilism. For example, hedonism is just a specific form of consequentialism.

I don't think it's appropriate to consider "Existentialists" or "Absurdists" like Sartre or Camus as nihilists. Rather, they developed techniques specifically to avoid nihilism even if life does not have a pre

And positions that are contrary to what MLK believed shouldn't be advocated by calling on his status as a public figure. Just because people are ignorant doesn't mean they get to say whatever they want. I don't see how this

I don't know what you are saying. Are you saying we shouldn't consider context when looking at quotes? That's a bad idea. For example, BitwiseFool said "Defund the Police." We shouldn't be saying MLK advocate

Holy strawmans Batman. Stop putting words into people's mouths. I don't think we should treat all black people like they are oppressed and poor. I think we should recognize our society has historically oppressed and impoverishe

MLK was against what people today call colorblindness. Just because he said he wanted people to not judge his children by the color of their skin does not mean he didn't recognize that modern society does and will continue to do so, s

There are consistent words that get dropped for different languages. For a very simple example, iirc, most Slavic language don't have a word for "is," or articles, so if the author says "dog brown" instead of &quot

And then someone hacks the exchange and they lose their money and they ask "how could this happen?" But they mean that literally because they didn't know it was even a possibility.

The BBC article doesn't talk about history at all. It's reporting on crimes that are currently being committed. Stop distracting from Russian war crimes.

by enkid 5y ago
And that has been reported on a million times in Western media. Why would any of this be a reason not to report on Russian war crimes? There is no reason. It just distracts.
554.
by enkid 5y ago
You are not disagreeing with me. You are just bringing up issues that Western countries have had and saying "don't report about Russian crimes, report about this.". But those things have been reported on and discussed in Wes

That is literally being dismissive of warcrimes anyone else commits.

That's not at all what this article is saying. It is about Russian warcrimes, something that is clearly worth reporting on. Whether or not removing Qaddafi was a mistake has very little to do with whether BBC should be reporting abou

by enkid 5y ago
Wow, the comments on this article are strangely dismissive of Russian warcrimes for some reason.

by enkid 5y ago
That's what journalism is, alleging something. Adding the word alleged in front of what they are reporting is only meant to distract from the allegation without adding anything substantive. Of course it's alleged. All human dis

Why are you distracting from Russian warcrimes? Whether or not the Turkish mercenaries are in Libya doesn't change that Wagner is killing prisoners and civilians. So why wouldn't the BBC report on this?

If I understand the article correctly, you're talking about two different things. Something can be efficiently heated but if it cools down all of that energy is effectively lost. This device would allow you to recapture some of that e

I'm not sure about restaurants not getting more efficient. Even things like microwaves, refrigeration and automated fryers and cash registers seem like they would drive up efficiency, not to mention the improvements in logistics and f

I don't think that's a unique property to tetraquarks. Neutrons or neutrinos also are not electrically charged. I'm not sure what you mean by untraceable, but neutrinos rarely interact with other particles and many, many of

Yes, tone provides a lot of information, but can someone accurately ascertain whether that tone will lead to problematic behaviour? I don't know. I would want to see some sort of research before accepting that this does what you say i

I mean, why make people do a phone call if it doesn't actually help with the interview process?

I'm going to reply the exact same way I did to another comment: Mein Kampf sold 240,000 copies before he became chancellor, so it seems like it was already an important part of the conversation. I'm not advocating for censorship,

It's really ironic that you used Main Kampf to justify your position. Mein Kampf hasn't taken over our society (though there are still plenty of people who read it), but it was an important part of the way that the Nazi's too

This is not true. Copernican theory allowed the existences of moons around other planets and explained the phases of Venus when seen through a telescope. The Copernican model allowed things that the Aristotlean model did not and those thi
