The fact that you can claim you need more information if it was a gender reversal, is exactly what they were pointing out.

Yeah. I really need to double check that shit. Makes me look half as foolish as I really am.

There is a branch of battery research that is only focused on grid storage. It’s the last piece to make solar and to a less extent wind unbeatably affordable.

In a home solar setup, batteries are the other half of the cost and have not fallen as fast as the cost of the panels themselves, the other half of the cost. For fully off grid setups, they quickly become the main cost.

Looks like people took my comment too serious; looks like you’ve uncovered the reason.

They behave exactly a child does when a parent forces an apology.

They have the words they’re expect to say so they do say them but they don’t undersranr why, they definitely don’t mean it and they lack the restrain to not doing whatever they apologized for over and over.

Not all losers support Trump for all Trump supporters are losers.

Your inability to figure out this simple logic mapping indicates your self-assessment is otherwise correct.

Not that he didn’t abuse his office for blowjobs

This makes it sound like he was getting blow jobs from political favors.

He had an affair with one intern.

Do you know how long it will take to make 10lbs into chips? You will stop eventually.

The worst part is the prep.

My criticism here isn’t about any specific group or topic. It’s about this aggravating debate pattern where rhetoric is used to paint the opponent’s argument into a morally charged form rather than addressing the actual claim being made.

That style of engagement is not something that ever leads to meaningful discussions.

A similar dynamic occurs in other highly polarized subjects where participants are more focused on signaling moral positions than resolving the underlying question.

This sort of shit has been going on since at least the times of Artistole who championed logic over emotion.

Arguing with vegans is like arguing with antivaxxers, they are positions based on emotions and they have their own version of reality they use to reinforce their believes. They often claim they have studies to back up their claims but the most shallow dive shows them to be bullshit.

It’s literally evident as they try to reframe this as rape. Their need to lean on rhetoric shows they have a strong basis for their believes.

No it isn’t. It’s entirely subjective whether a movie has substance.

You’re arguing that other people who found substance in their viewing of a movie are wrong because for you it had no substance for you. What’s the point? What drives you to be validated here at the cost of invalidating others?

banned phones at the dinner table entirely

I would everyone is doing this. Sitting down to eat together once a day and talk isn’t something only billionaires can afford.

They answered yes while creating a reason to be offended for having to answer yes.

Can’t make this shit up. Impotent rage is some people’s identity.

What’s funny is it’s literally a shared behavior across the entire political spectrum in America but each side pretends it’s only the other side doing it.

what we need is law enforcement

Cool. You want the cops to start executing children on the streets for not obeying commands.

It is definitely possible to travel and not experience culture.

Thinking you understand culture byecuwse you have the internet is sort of admitting your that type of person.

The problem with talking to randoms online is the things they don’t say because it’s their normal. Experiencing those differences in normals is what is being discussed here.

When I was in school this was a literally social studies topic discuss many times over all the years we learned about other cultures which really reinforces that some people dont pay enough attention to receive any value from travel.

That doesn’t mean other can’t or don’t.

You sound like someone who has never experienced court outside of tv or movies.

The courts process is entirely pragmatic. The entire point is to remove all emotions. The judge is not going to presume malice.

The person most at risk here is their council. It they were aware of this stunt they could cause themselves serious damage.

Go onto a court room and hold up your phone, pointing at the jury. Report back on how that goes for you.

These guys went full techbro.

Never go full techbro.
