Given the stigma that many people still associate, we probably learned not to talk about it, maybe even subconsciously.

That's BS. I was unschooled (except for paying my way for my associate's degree when I was 13), and I wouldn't put a kid through school. The freedom let me get my first coding job at 17, and I was freelancing well before that

Aw man, gamedev is rough. That's a bad spot to be in today's market. I'm primarily frontend, but now work as solo eng for a sizeable nonprofit. So much better, I'd say 30% of my work is code and the rest is people work.

Functional fascism is a fascinating concept. Surprisingly excellent in the corporate world.

You're probably just unhappy with what you do and don't realize it. I am on my journey out of exactly what you're describing, and it came down to me realizing that I'd rather make less and solve real problems, instead of

So the "Heisenberg Compensators" in Ster Trek's transporters now have a basis in reality. Denise and Mike Okuda should be proud.

Dogs are even more poorly equipped for the sudden shift in living conditions over the last century than we are. Dogs are meant to be a little bit wild, roam around and enjoy being a dog every so often. Not being able to ever do that is ta

Reddit is a bit of an odd environment. It's moderated by people with zero life.

Retarded means "slowed down". It's a very good word, and even better as an insult.

There's also different breed of cow, goat, and sheep used for meat vs wool. The meat breeds are much stupider and less personable. I could never kill one of my milk goats for meat, but my meat rabbits are a rather easy task.

Just layoff hospital staff until it hurts. Easy.

That is the same article, yes.

Thank you for posting that article and quote. Edifying read, and it's going in my bookmarks folder to be re-read repeatedly.

First is irrelevant to whether the product is good, I don't care about purity tests. The rest of the list, minus the end, is them trying to make money without selling data. That actually makes me more confident about their belief in

You should force yourself through the first season or two. I promise the dominion war is worth it.

In many cases (especially magazine capacity laws, the stupidest of all restrictions), cops are exempt while nobody else is exempt. They're simply a caste above you.

It's a different topic, though. Women are the bottleneck of population growth, men are not, therefore women having better survivability makes perfect sense. Men being stronger and dying younger makes perfect sense from an evolutionary

Roe v Wade was legislation from the bench. The current court undid that, and are basically shredding any Sua Sponte legislation that comes before them.

You may also consider a less criminal MC, but generally bikers are great security. I ride with a Guardian Riders ( https://guardianriders.com/ ) chapter president, and he's often pulled in for private security at massive

And of course, the police have no duty to protect individuals.

I have no guilt, because it needed to be done. It's just emotionally traumatic. With a human, it's far more hurtful to the soul; no matter how much they needed shooting, they are fundamentally the same as you.

There is a karma threshold for downvoting, which is very smart.

I don't downvote unless it's an obvious troll. I upvote if it's well written ANDOR it's a well-made point. If I get into a debate in the comments with a smart person, I upvote every reply they make to remind myself that

They are originalists, and if the origin changes, so does the meaning. Change the origin document if you'd like to change the meaning.

I don't want to shoot other humans. I've been in a situation where I nearly needed to, and I'll never fail to be equipped to do so. I had to shoot a cat about a year ago, and I'm still a bit fucked up about it. A human w

Thankfully, this is not common outside NY and California. Most other states (27 at last count) have constitutional carry, and at least in my area (small city) violent crime is extremely rare, since pretty much everyone has a gun or access t

No. SAG-AFTRA members, with the notable exception of Alec Baldwin, can't shoot people and get away with it. Police have special privileges, and should be snapped back into last century before we allow them to abuse them.

It's interest balancing. If you do a lot of good, more evil is excusable in the mind of the average person. It doesn't make the bad things less bad, but it makes the person more human, as opposed to them being a virtuous angel, wh

Yeah, one reason I'm very very careful on my motorcycle. The injuries are amazing, very interested in the continued function of my body.
