That is an easy way to deflect personal responsibility. Being a good person doesn't make you a good parent. All bad behavior barring mental disorders are caused by bad parenting, anyone who says otherwise is just unwilling to accept th

Ford caught a lot of crap for saying the lightning started at $35k but it was/is impossible to find anything at that price. The only trims on sale were costing double that at dealers. These companies just don't have the ability to

I just said I don't consider any part of the city safe enough to let my wife walk around at night alone. Contrast that to any major city in say Japan, where I'd let my kids walk around alone at night. Kara Swisher is a self-involv

Their personality is a direct product of their environment. Shit parents make shit kids, it's nothing short of a miracle when a kid somehow sidesteps that fate and comes out a better person than their parents.

That's still the case with good shows but the sheer amount of trash being shoveled out to pad content libraries makes good stuff exceedingly rare. Also consider that everything has to drag out for 5+ seasons to reap as much cash as pos

Eh I lived in tenderloin for a couple years and would often walk around alone past midnight to make a snack run or go to the gym. Definitely sketchy but never felt unsafe. I have no delusions though, I would not consider any part of the cit

Unironically, disable javascript. Nearly every scam arises from some javascript feature being abused.

Gonna be honest she rinsed you guys. Made a 10-min vlog that basically said nothing about your product and you guys had to do the whole thing.

I think at some point I'll just stop using the internet. Maybe being a luddite isn't so bad.

You're suggesting that I never bring up something regarding my partner unless they mention it first. What an absurdly unrealistic and sterile view of love you have.

Go to any relationship subreddit and you'll see countless comments where the slightest misstep is treated as some indellible sin. It's terrifying how quickly these people would forsake a loved one. So many unbelievably jaded and c

Find friends through hobbies. Go practice a martial art, join an adult league of whatever sport you like. The best part is anyone you meet already enjoys doing the thing you want to do in your spare time, no need to convince them.

Why does it upset you that GP would be concerned for his GF's health? I also ask my GF's not to take oral contraceptives because of guilt that they're doing damage to their body for me. None have ever responded negatively, an

One problem is government buildings employ many other people like security, maintenance, repair, etc. People commuting into cities spend money at businesses within the city. It's easy for us to say remote work is better but it will com

>Your child isn't being educated by 'some stranger'. This person is not my friend or family. They are a stranger. How they conduct themselves during an annual parent-teacher conference, PTA meetings, etc. is no indication

The idea of leaving my kids with some stranger for 6hrs a day, who may or may not have ulterior motives behind what they are telling my children, is kind of terrifying. There was a scandal in our school district recently where an assembly i

Smart kids find out pretty quickly that they are smarter than others. Their options become dumbing themselves down to fit in with the average, finding similarly smart kids to hangout with, or just keeping to themselves.

Is there any evidence for this or are you parroting western talking points meant to vilify/justify deposing him? I'm more inclined to disbelieve the statement given the west's track record for fabricating reasons to invade fo

Agreed, they basically launch Starlink satellites for free as they can reuse launch vehicles other customers already paid off. Remains to be seen whether this is intentional or not. Given how a few of the satellites had a much sharper decay

Not stating an opinion but isn't that more of an issue with countries that choose to do business with Switzerland? Swiss banking privacy and their grey/black practices are sovereign decisions they have every right to make but it a

The phones are not talking to cell towers, they are communicating directly with Starlink satellites. The whole point of the service is to provide emergency coverage in areas not served by cell.

These startups are kind of the backbone of the tech economy, you'd think this would be a case where the government says "too big to fail" again.

I believe the only ones SOL are SIVB shareholders. It's my understanding that SVB has enough to mostly cover their liabilities.

The reality is they don't give a shit. Even when they pretend to, it's because they expect people would be upset otherwise.

I get your point but an unparalleled spyware tool being deployed by an adversarial, authoritarian nation on our largely unsuspecting populous is something the government should intervene over. Perhaps we would never see this support were it

That is good to know thank you. I always wondered whether stevia could be used as a substitute for sugar in baking for that exact reason.
