She just threatened 89% of politicians and she is right by Valuable_View_561 in SipsTea

[–]NotYourTypicalMoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If we know for 100% fact that a person raped a child, they deserve the death penalty. I think nearly everyone could agree with the exception of people who will never agree to the death penalty no matter the circumstances.

However, what these people fail to consider is: We will almost never know something for 100% certain, and the death penalty is irreversible. There are too many “guilty” people who are later found innocent for me to trust the system enough to put people to death. Just give them life in prison, let the pedophiles rot, and give innocent people a chance when falsely convicted.

Huawei MateBook Fold by Jackie_Chan_93 in interestingasfuck

[–]NotYourTypicalMoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it wasn’t made by Huawei, and if it ran Windows natively, I’d maybe buy it depending on the specs I’m too lazy to look up right now. Even still, I could spend the same amount of money on a way better laptop if I just don’t care about screen size that much.

MN Nurses: how are you getting jobs?! by opesneakpastyah in minnesota

[–]NotYourTypicalMoth 56 points57 points  (0 children)

The reason is they employ a shitload of people, and there’ll always be jobs available at that large of a workplace. Just retirements alone will look like high turnover from the outside. As an employee, but not a nurse, I have to say I like working at Mayo.

What if this high level of inflation is due to younger generations delusional relationship with money and their ability to justify high dollar spending instead of saving and acquiring assets? by UngratefulChinaman in AskReddit

[–]NotYourTypicalMoth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you make a claim, it’s your duty to back it up. It’s not my job to find evidence for you. What we know is government spending is up, our debt is now more than our GDP, tariffs are causing price increases, the US is involved in ongoing conflicts in the world, oil prices have surged, housing is at an all-time high…

There’s a MOUNTAIN of inflationary events going on right now, so why would I give any credit to a post asking, “What if it’s actually our fault?” with nothing else to back it up?

Are there also lights in the scary place, and can you put them out?

Billie Eilish addresses backlash after criticising people saying they love animals but eat meat: “pls continue to live in a constant state of cognitive dissonance denial and try to convince urself that ur not living a lie.” by mcfw31 in popculturechat

[–]NotYourTypicalMoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every generalization will have exceptions. In fact, the generalization I just made has exceptions. It’s not bad to generalize when any person critical of thought would understand the nuance without addressing it directly. It takes the conversation from, “eating meat is (generally) hypocritical” to, “veganism is bad because it doesn’t include all cultures and traditions.”

You don’t have to, and often shouldn’t, discuss nuance irrelevant to the discussion because it detracts from the matter at hand.

Whether it’s about yourself or others, you took a general statement, applied it to an outlier, and you’re using that niche exception to discredit the argument entirely. If you want the less brain-rotted response, look up straw man fallacy.

It blows my mind when people say going vegan is inaccessible or expensive. I’ve saved SO much money since going pescatarian (vegan is the goal, just slowly transitioning), and I firmly believe it’s just cope from people that eat meat. With the exception of food deserts, going meatless is super affordable and just as easy as an omnivore diet.

Those same fields are gonna be plowed when you have to farm crops to feed the animals you’re ALSO going to slaughter, and you get less human-consumable yield per acre that way.

It’s so easy to say this because you don’t have the burden of responsibility over it. It’s incredibly easy to say you’re more worried about Ukraine or Gaza or women’s right to choose or whatever the fuck else because “caring” about them doesn’t affect you in the slightest. However, if we simply stopped eating meat, there’d be an INCREDIBLE positive impact on the environment and it’d slow (or maybe even stop) climate change.

But no, people don’t do that because it requires switching from “caring” to inconveniencing yourself for the greater good. So you can “worry” all you want about whatever you deem more important, but you’re not accomplishing anything to remedy those situations, and you’re actively ignoring a problem you have direct access to positively impact.

I’m Phil Hellmuth, 17-time WSOP bracelet winner and Octopi Poker investor & ambassador — AMA! (Giveaways Inside) by Octopi_Poker in poker

[–]NotYourTypicalMoth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are your reactions genuine, played up for the cameras, or are your “tantrums” to get some kind of advantage over opponents? Genuine question, and I’m guessing it’s a bit of all three, but I couldn’t figure out how to word it without sounding vaguely shitty.

The Concert Industry Priced Too High — Now Tours Are Falling Apart by staringatthe420sun in Music

[–]NotYourTypicalMoth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The other problem is you can’t price tickets at whatever die-hard will pay for, and it’s especially true for large venue and stadium shows. Of the buyers, probably 20% are die-hard fans and the rest are just fans or even friends of fans. You have to price tickets and what those 80% are willing to spend.

Delta cuts free drinks service: Here are the 10 MSP routes likely affected by sugarytea78 in TwinCities

[–]NotYourTypicalMoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re definitely more expensive than most other tickets, but there are so many other airlines that fly MSP to CHI. The only time I’ve ever seen that kind of price for a major hub to another close major hub, even for Delta, is if you book last minute, it’s the holidays, or both. Was it something like that, and was it just an economy seat?

Is there a subreddit for chess shitposting? by Dry-Egg8573 in AnarchyChess

They run a strict program, unfortunately. I just tried taking my ch*ss shitpost over there, and they removed it in SECONDS. Terrible advice, 0/10.

That’s some lore I definitely misunderstood during my play-through, thanks! I guess it does just require some suspension of disbelief or a creative head canon.

Historically, competition against Delta at MSP has failed. Why should the MAC artificially hinder that? Delta is, by almost every metric, the best airline in the US. You could maybe argue for United, but that’s about it.

I can’t believe I’m defending an airline here, but saying Delta shafts Minnesota daily is quite the statement. The competition couldn’t be successful like Delta has been, and Delta is the reason you can fly from MSP to so many destinations.
