So your concern is that Valve recommends you don't do it yourself and is nothing to do with the product itself?

What do you mean by non-removable battery? The video shows how to unplug it. I'm sure it can be replaced by any normal repairman or hobbyist. Aftermarket batteries will also surely be available like they are for other popular devices.

If they're covert and only members of the group using them know what they mean, then why fight it? Seems like a helpful way to communicate about things that others might not like to hear. The paper you linked said that too - "Such

Stats or it didn't happen. That kind of seemingly incredible coincidence can sometimes just be the mind playing tricks on people who are unaware of how many ways a similar result could have occurred by chance.

I didn't attempt to answer your point directly because others have already done a better job of it. Excuse me for making it sound like "You're wrong but I can't explain why".

But I think most people know what those words are so somehow the idea is shared very well. Most taboos are probably like this - they're actually well known but talking about them and doing them is discouraged. I wonder about believing

Yep. It's misguided attempts to recycle plastic that cause a lot of the environmental contamination in the west.

I think you're stuck between the anti-plastic and anti-GHG ideologies. This reminds me of when anti-nuclear collided with anti-GHG. Not everything has a single obvious right answer. There are always tradeoffs. In this particular case,

Yep. I investigated Stripe once but you had to use an API. Paypal is just copy and paste code into your HTML page.

No but I bet some people are turned away because of Paypal. I use it and customers occasionally inquire "Do you accept credit cards because we don't have a Paypal account?". It's aggravating that they make the credit car

"[...] "Scalpers perform a social service" [...] absurd point". Do you mean that you think it's absurd but you don't disagree that scalpers perform a social service?

I think you're using the word "intelligence" to mean "respectable" or something else that isn't intelligence at all. Perhaps similar to how people use "stupid" to mean something that hurts them - &quo

If you look up what collectivism means, I think that entire conversation will become clear to you.

I agree about the "just". You're right. It's about the same level of misleading as "scientific fact". People used to use "just a theory" to discredit relativity or evolution, exploiting the fact that

The horrible part is not the believing, but the condemning of non-believers.

I don't believe they're the future, nor do I really understand them much at all. I'm just critical of the way people say "I don't understand them, therefore they're stupid". There may be valid reasons why

It is just a theory. There's no such thing as "scientific fact". That's simply not what science is capable of, and you're showing you're anti-science by promoting those ideas.

I really thought it was some attempt to worsen the apparent effects of climate change and got confused when it started talking about house piles sinking on their own in thawing permafrost, not being somehow deliberately sabotaged or whateve

You don't need to own the card to do that. Just google image search and look at your screen. If you like cardboard cards, print one on cardboard.

What? Surely not. Someone else still owns the copyright of baseball cards, don't they? Or are baseball cards special in that they come with a kind of copyright ownership when they're sold? I doubt that.

A lot of people on here are aggressively expressing skepticism of NFTs while only giving simple easily refutable reasons. It seems like they're trying hard not to understand. That's what happens when people have cognitive dissonan

You disagree but with no reasons. You should consider why you hold that belief.

Big difference between science and popular emotion-fueled mischaracterizations of science.

Yes, that's why it's a big problem. They also often make the wrong decision and leave people screwed over. Just look at all the complaints from Ebay sellers who got ripped off by Ebay siding with the fraudulent customer. There are

So you favor a kind of libertarian capitalism where the problems caused by businesses are the responsibility of people suffering from them? If you don't like being addicted to heroin, don't buy heroin? Since you asked, to be hones

That's called bigotry. And yes, it was a personal attack.

Conservation absolutely is nothing to do with care and empathy for non-human life. The proof is that one of the main tools of conservationists is mechanical and chemical killing machines to help them kill and even exterminate all the non-hu

No. You've been indoctrinated to believe that environmentalism is like a religion so that you're a bad person for being an infidel and must not question the flimsy claims that the authorities make.

This seems to the basic understanding most people have. At school, they teach you about food webs and how breaking one link can ruin everything. That's an enticing idea but is it really true? I'm sure there have been some known ca
