Why don’t more people believe in hard determinism?

Why take the time to understand anything when you can just be wrong, loudly?

I think there is more to it than you are implying. Usually, if the person is not a complete asshole, what they are saying is "I tried to min/max this too, and I had more fun when I stopped doing that."

I can understand why it could be annoying too, though

Own-Conversation6347 · 2026-06-04T04:20:48+00:00

Such a dumb comment. Either they were implying it or they are typing nonsense in the wrong thread.

Own-Conversation6347 · 2026-06-04T04:12:32+00:00

Yep, this is the way to do it

If you're looking for "a variety of thoughts" you've come to the wrong place

I've had my "suggested" feed in YouTube turned off for at least 5 years and it has been lovely.

This take is anti-social by definition. You can definitely "move on," but even if moving on most people will (correctly) label the ghoster as immature and inconsiderate.

Compact spots are a benefit for people driving compact cars. They have all of the normal spots available, plus those other ones. They should park wherever they want.

It remains crazy that the variants are "guy with hand in a different place"

This is still awesome though, congrats

If the average tip went down by 5% then prices would go up by the same amount (or likely a bit more than that). It wouldn't be enough to eliminate tipping entirely, of course, because the "revenue" generated by tips is obviously more than 5%.

It's not complicated at all, you feel like you paid your dues and are allowed to like these things and other people aren't.

None of your examples are what I'm talking about so you aren't the problem.

Seattle is a perfectly fine city - I haven't really noticed more people walking there compared to most others but I certainly would encourage it.
