You're right. But... ...my dad's top-end washing machine bought 25 years ago is still going strong, working without a hitch. Had simple maintenance once . All the while I'm about to get my third model in 14 years.

What are you talking about? "Importing a car is pretty much impossible"?!?! I walked around São Paulo last week on a tuesday, and I saw a bunch of BMWs, a bunch of Land Rovers, a bunch of Volvos, a bunch of Audis etc. And I'm

I lived there for some years. It's not nearly as bad as you say. The main inconvenience is that it is very car-centric, but the consequence is that you get to walk around in nice green surroundings if you don't want to drive&#

> higher end DACs do sound better This hasn't passed the blind tests either. A good, 100 dollar dac (a schiit or an odac) will sound just as good as a 1000 dollar dac.

'Replicate' is clear to me. 'Reproduce', in this context, still isn't. Could you give an example?

It doesn't matter. The people who develop newer MRI machines will use what they believe in the formulation of their experiments. If that initial development of MRI that you mention didn't amount to nothing, it would have been thro

> Now that science is proven to be systemically corrupt, what will "rational" people base their understanding on? Oh yes, and all the scientific advancements will stop working from now on since science is proven to be corrupt.

Those ovation acoustic guitars with the plastic bottoms and carbon fiber tops are pretty good.

Happens with most (very) big structures when new. That London pink tower thing will probably be loved by londoners in a decade or two. And can definitely understand the backlash against the Eiffel at the time it was built. A huge, cold, all

Huh... The Wikipedia link you provided states "Work restarted in the 19th century and was completed, to the original plan, in 1880." So it is technically completed, but its maintenance is now basically year-round, is this correct?

The economies aren't doing good, so you count off the low-crime, free healthcare, good free education, cheap housing altogether?

no, I was just making a point, as in saying something stupid and then just using the cop-out that it was a joke, like the first commenter did. I would defend my daughter no matter the size of the asshole, like most parents would.

To sound like a joke, as in everyone will find it funny and immediately know it is a joke, and to sound like one specific obscure line that is a joke in some film, and that people don't immediately get. They both sound like a joke, b

Where did I say they were prison rapists?? Or violent of any kind by the way?!? They just talked, that's all. But if you thought the place I described was so vile that you already labeled the men you imagined as 'prison rapists&#x

Everytime something like this comes up a portion of men will respond with either "It's a public place, people are free to look at and talk to strangers, etc" or "Men are like that, deal with it." Oh, and also the &q

Sorry, but: 1. Doesn't sound like a joke, note even close. 2. If it happened to my daughter and I was there to witness, I'd have to control myself not to punch the asshole in the face too. Especially if he was one of those dork-lo

I've known about thirty people who have used Lsd routinely for years, and I have to agree with you. The only significant difference is that some of them talk like it drammatically changes them. The effect doesn't seem much diffe

I use one of these (model's a bit different, but pretty close) every day to write and edit text. I emulate Jef Raskin's Canon Cat navigation model on the trackpad buttons, and it works exceptionally well. If the demand was there,

What are you talking about? So what if WhatsApp is used by half a billion people? Good for the engineers, I guess? How is my third world country so much better off with WhatsApp than with the crappier alternative, vs. my third world country

It's great that you think this way. I see too much of this pressure with my friends who have kids. They want to see them do math and read before they're x years old, with x being one or two less than what the cheaper schools are d

I actually liked the way the x-32 looked. If Disney made a movie like 'Cars' but called 'Jet Fighters', I always thought the X-32 would be a candidate for the protagonist.
