Bait in the sense that you confidently state something that looks obviously incorrect on face, whereupon an average Mottizen might be tempted to point that out and get hit by some obscure counter. Hence my "Earth isn't round" quip.

God forbid fantasy races don't precisely meet the beauty standards of The Most Boring Fantasy Race(tm) aside from the superficial non-boring parts.

He's onto something there. Trust-seeking, the "nerd masculine" archetype as described in Hanania's comments, is not actually masculine. It has nothing to do specifically with reproductive strategies for the sex with cheaper gametes. Truth-seeking is genderless, and as the sex with greater variability men have more pressure to exhibit genderless behaviour.

If you evopsychmaxx it could be seen as the nerd genes, not cutting it in a purely caveman-masculine world, finding another way. Instead of being directly appealing, change the world and shape society, so that those like you are more likely to thrive later.

Where did the guy above say that they're sending compute in space to cool it? My impression was that he said they're sending compute in space so it can be independent of Earth's electrical grid. Whether it can be sufficiently cooled by radiation or not is, I think, sufficiently beyond "basic" physics that your borderline-bait response was unwarranted.

"You moron, you absolute retard, the Earth isn't round. It's a geoid."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Webb_Space_Telescope

If you can't cool anything in space due to basic physics then why does this claim that the Telescope among other things is cooled by radiating heat?

The specific case here appears to be closer to:

Person on left: "if you hold view A/believe thing B/do not agree with me on position C, you are a Nazi!"

Person on right: "That makes me a Nazi? Guess I'm a Nazi, then!"

Person on right: puts a swastika flag on the wall and gets caught talking to his pals in political private chats on how the Austrian painter was right about everything, with little to no indication of irony

Other people on left, including those who might have disagreed with Person on the Left at first: "...well I guess you really are, then."

If the choice is between Nazis and the modern left, what is the actual difference in practice between an outright Nazi and someone who "only" would rather have Nazis than the modern left? It looks like they're both working towards the same goal. Even if the "preferrer" intends to try and slow the swing of the pendulum from the left to Nazism once it starts being too Nazi for his taste, at the moment he's all too happy to help it gain momentum.

For the record I do not believe that the choice is between Nazis and the modern left, although I grant that picking "nazis" appears a lot simpler for many than picking the middle.

Attempted multiplayer Rabbit and Steel recently with a friend.

Rabbit and Steel is a game about cute bunny girls fighting several bosses in a row that's marketed as "FF14 raid experience without having to level and grind". You go in, fight the bosses, get some items that increase your DPS in various ways in between the fights, and that's it. The fights themselves are akin to bullet hell games, but with emphasis on zones - some zones you have to stay in, others you have to stay out of. Dealing damage is not automatic, so you have to pay some mind to pressing your abilities in a specific order to maximize DPS.

The game can be played solo, but it shines in co-op, as most boss attacks force players to interact in certain ways. Instead of merely having to stay in a circle, the boss may center the circle on one of you, for example, or the ever-notorious "spread out" attacks (the name speaks for itself).

A major downside is that it just becomes plain diffucult to figure out what all the attacks are when there are 5 different areas of effect in various shapes (and one color scheme) on the screen.

I think he means the centenarian SS collaborationist. Famous for being invited to speak at the Canadian parliament as a veteran of WW2 and a fighter for Ukrainian independence against Russia. Allegedly, the people in charge of the ceremony were blissfully unaware of what kind of military formations were conducting Ukrainian resistance against Russia at that time.

The world that looks more like the dark matter world from my perspective is the bubble that has formed adjacent the Western progressive ideology, where the healthy and fun trust exercise of saying outlandish things in private company, knowing that all present trust you to not really mean it, is taken deathly seriously.

If the men you know never make offensive jokes and can't even fathom why making offensive jokes is fun, I think they have poorer lives for it.

Don't care, and

You waste time typing anything after "and" if you've already admitted you don't care. Anyway, pivoting from pearl-clutching over the other side being publicly edgy towards you to calling out pearl-clutching when it is directed at you, for any reason, is a whiplash hazard.

I am happy for my female friends, for they are enriched: they have heard the most horrible things I have ever said out loud.

Naturally.

The principle of "who whom" has been, to my understanding, established to broadly apply to both sides. So the most new information that can be gained is whether it applies specifically to JD Vance.

'Did JD have anything to say about the comments on Charlie Kirk's shooting' is the pertinent question here, I think.

Assuming you've been starting from absolute scratch, i.e. only the standard library, there are game engines that solve the question of "having a framework to click buttons in and have objects that move around". The problem might be that learning a game engine might be just as hard if not harder than learning a programming language.

Godot is one of the engines that people make 2D games with today.

What was stopping him before? Israel had already been accused numerous times of being callous to their hostages' safety, Hannibal Doctrine etc.

Depends on whether souls, angels and demons end up coming from an existing theological practice.

That would do it. Where I live the residential tower blocks often have at least one commercial outlet on the ground floor, such as groceries, barbershops, hardware store, etc. That's in the suburbs - in the city center the ground floor is often entirely businesses.

I have not one but multiple stores within 2 minute walking distance.

The usual response is that in the cases where the CEO is bad, their quality of life won't really fall like a worker's quality of life falls if a worker fucks up and is fired.

As mentioned elsewhere in the thread, it's downvoted because splitting up that money is not the point. The point is that the money is undeserved and unfair.

The opinion on pets is pretty much my actual opinion, I didn't make it up just now to win this argument. To elaborate, we do of course cherish our pets and do our best to not do what we think of as torture to them - but it's still our morality and done for the sake of ourselves - and certainly we expect no reciprocity from cats and dogs. We do not expect them to be good cuddly pets because it would be the right thing to do of them, but because they're here for that purpose. Hence "morality does not exist between humans and pets".

It should be needless to say that the relationship between humans and states is usually far less amicable. So the comparison of treason and torturing kittens doesn't quite land for me, I'm afraid. You could compare how similarly to the torture of kittens having impact on the surrounding humans, so too can treason have an impact on the surrounding humans. I don't specifically advocate selling out your country to evil cannibal aliens for that reason. But going "literal treason, yikes!?" as if treason is automatically something bad amuses me.

I would assume that before the shock collar was invented, the go-to immediate negative reinforcement was beating the dog or yanking on the prong collar.

I'll bite, which one? Or did you deliberately not specify for the sake of the bit?
