Less finite than earth’s natural resources amidst the unprecedented rapid deterioration and destruction of basically everything on earth sans colossal asteroid strikes? Trivial to some upper class person in an air…
Publicly calling someone a rapist can very well get someone injured or killed. Unless you’re a victim whose pleas are being completely ignored by the legal system, it’s not justifiable and not something that should be…
> I am going to a dance event regularly but so far nothing there and even then, I can't talk while I dance as I need to concentrate on getting the moves right (it's a well known style of dance, not just club dancing)…
My blood pressure increased by 50% since getting covid 6 months ago and hasn’t come down since. It’s been stable all my life and shot up in the span of a month.
Mentioned that in my first comment. There’s perfectly good software out there. I’d rather get work done and use that, than spend forever trying to make sense of some mess of an ancient project’s code and trying to fix…
The fact it’s been struggling to get widespread support for decades and there’s always someone complaining about the UI is a sign. Most people don’t even think about photoshop UI. Same with Microsoft paint: users can…
Honestly, if there have been decades of efforts and it’s still this bad, that’s even less motivation to give them money. It’s like: if you’re a large manufacturer, would you prefer investing in a city where government…
The UI is absolutely horrendous and despite decades of opportunity to fix it, there’s been zero attempt. Blender has made some big UI gains. I used it a long time ago, and the hidden menus and backwards control scheme…
Why the random mention of dolphins? The ones being hunted aren’t at risk of extinction. It’s not as bad as cattle farming, which is straight up destroying the environment in several ways, from clear cutting rainforests…
Then you have “I go home”, which drops not only “the” but “to”. Religious in nature? No. This was some truly bizarre reasoning based off one example and it has zero actual foundation in language. One of the strangest…
I haven’t touched MS Office in about 10 years. Libreoffice and Apple’s equivalents have been perfectly fine for me. Some specialized cases require office, but for the typical document or spreadsheet it’s very easy to…
Hence the point. If women don’t want kids, then that’s that.
40000 manuscripts over a period of centuries is very strange. That’d be less than a manuscript a day for the whole continent. I know literacy was low, but that’s just unreasonable. “People only use 10% of their brains”…
What are men morally supposed to do when women simply do not want kids? It’s not an issue of financial struggle since the trend is most pronounced in wealthy countries, especially in those with small wealth divisions.
Appendicitis is desirable now? I’m more out of touch with modern trends than I thought.
Being around kids all day isn’t fun. It’s stressful. Part of the job is appearing to be calm and approachable to the children and it absolutely wears out most people. It’s just like thinking enjoying having a pet means…
Articles are mostly promo pieces. The artist’s press team sends some quotes they want writers to use, and they tweak the wording. Same with launch articles about any other content—movies, games, whatever.
Worth looking at Japan’s Toukaidou Shinkansen. The route could take a direct path from Tokyo to Nagoya to Osaka, being super fast and hitting up only the main cities. But it doesn’t. It hits up the southern coast…
Olive oil actually isn’t a seed oil. It comes from the flesh of the olive. I was surprised to learn that myself recently.
Imagine telling poor Americans to just move to Guatemala to do poor people work since it’s not that different and you’ll realize how insane that sounds.
You can move wherever you want. But on a forum where people frequently talk about the harm humans do, I think advising people to move to an area that exists basically for people who are just struggling to start their…
If you’re learning a language only for money, your studying efforts are probably going to burn out fast. Most people I know who learned a second language on their own volition did it because they were interested in the…
The first year, yeah. After that, people start moving out. I don’t know anybody who lived in a dorm from the third year onward. But yeah, what poor college students trying to get a start on life and grad students making…
I think the emphasis was on being prepared. If you grow up in the area surrounded by people who know the area, you'll do fine. If you're casually wandering into an area like that coming from San Francisco or London…
Imagine a man being visited by the police for eating a ham sandwich, which his neighbors found morally questionable. Being released is better than what it could’ve been. The fact he was visited at all is terrifying.
