Our ability to conceive of something should not be in the definition of reality. Quantum mechanics and relativity have just as much, if not more experimental evidence to support them as atomic theory, and make even better predictions. Thi

None of what you are saying actually contradicts the sentence. More men would be over-rewarded, because more men work from the office. This is bad for the employer, but it is also bad for the under-rewarded employees (they would be missin

Right. There's more than 20 western countries. If P is around 5% we would expect the result just from random fluctuation. If you start looking at other factors, such as number of children, when you have children, age gaps between chi

The UN purposefully doesn't involve itself in internal politics of its member states unless there is an clear reason to. Setting such a framework would be down right disastrous for some countries and would likely be ignored by many ot

What's the other way around? I'm having difficulty parsing what you mean.

Yes...? We would still be talking about highly regulated centralized power generation. We're not talking about everyone having a nuclear reactor in their backyard.

This mix and match of assumptions seems like a security nightmare.

Good point!

Lots of things have been around for 1000's of years. Rape, murder, clothes, but that doesn't mean they are a good thing.

This is really messed up. I have doubts about what other people say, but I try to reserve judgement about those things. When them make claims that I haven't seen any evidence for, I ask for their evidence so I can understand where the

That's great if it meets your needs, but I don't think that's a good argument for why other people shouldn't have the option to buy stuff from Ikea. Population growth alone dictates there's not enough furniture fro

So, this is a different argument from the one you were making before. You first post is about ingestion of media. This one is about production. This is a very different claim, but still requires evidence beyond stating that there is some.

Do you have any evidence the "left wing" is in any more of an echo chamber than the right wing? Is this just personal observation or do you have something more to point to?

Asking for evidence to claims of fraud is "cancel culture" or shutting down diversity of ideas? That makes no sense.

by enkid 6y ago
You provided a long list of claims. I asked for evidence of one and an explanation for why the legal system hasn't done anything with this evidence since it has been massively litigated. The burden of proof is in you to prove your cl

Do you have any evidence of any of this? If so, why was this not presented in any of the 60 court cases?

by enkid 6y ago
No, that's not how it works. The 1st, 2nd, etc. Amendments are reinterpreted, but they are never done away with unless another amendment modifies or nullifies it. Laws that are not part of the constution on the other hand are nullifi

That's fair enough, but I still doubt you use 1/250 of water in salt, even when you're cooking. If you add things like showering, washing clothes, and lawn care, it's not even close

How much salt do you use in a month? How much water do you drink?

Why do the x's keep getting fewer? Is the crisis a lack of x's?

Do you get enough volume for this to work? My intuition would be the levels of Uranium would be low enough that it would not be energy positive. Do you have more information about this process?

Some people like living in nature. With utilities already built out or alternatives like solar power for electricity and starlink for internet, people could untether themselves from urban areas all together.

My point is that the parent post was talking like people were advocating violence against Mike Pence and that's why it was trending, but that's not true.
747.
by enkid 6y ago
Hang Mike Pence was trending because a video came out showing people chanting it during the riots. People then quoted the video saying it was a bad thing, which made the trending algorithm trip. It was not people for hanging Mike Pence, it

Legalization has not stopped alcohol poisoning. Is there some reason it would stop heroin overdoses?

Yes, they should. No one is arguing they shouldn't.
