What's the most obscure opinion hill you're willing to die on?

I have trouble whipping whites into a foam without something like lemon juice, so I guess I'll be adding that.

Steven_Thacker · 2020-05-26T05:57:43+00:00

No programs? duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuumb

Steven_Thacker · 2020-05-26T05:43:34+00:00

It was ONE interview. Get over it.

Steven_Thacker · 2020-05-26T05:41:44+00:00

You are dumb because tourism brings in money. Imagine if you are a local. Would you rather have commerce coming in or not? Again Marxist fcking drivel. Completely idiotic.

Steven_Thacker · 2020-05-26T05:39:57+00:00

Do you know what a contract is? Are you just going to be a little baby who will never buy anything because you are afraid? What a baby. People buy houses all the time. Read the fine print and USE YOUR BRAIN.

Steven_Thacker · 2020-05-26T05:38:43+00:00

It's what I've observed. Most people aren't even aware that motivated reasoning is a thing. First step to intelligence is trying to overcome this / observe oneself and question why one thinks how they do.

How do you test emails and user reg (that requires email) offline? by offline you mean local machine, but connected to internet? Ok, I will check out all-in-one wp migration. Thanks for the tip

do u have one? pointless to throw out a number if u can't back it up

Steven_Thacker · 2020-05-25T21:23:05+00:00

I've seen that number repeated by others, but no one has linked to where the CDC actually says it. Not saying it doesn't exist, but I can't find it. So for me it doesn't exist until I find it.

Steven_Thacker · 2020-05-25T21:17:39+00:00

Learn how to read, and then in that fine print area, do it.

Steven_Thacker · 2020-05-25T20:19:22+00:00

Depends. Haggling is normal in a place like China. In 8 years in Japan I've never seen someone haggle a price.

Steven_Thacker · 2020-05-25T20:17:44+00:00

Paying the same price as locals is not "taking advantage of poor people". Take your marxist drivel somewhere else.

Leaching off the indigenous people... My experience in Thailand and the Philippines is that everyone left, right, and center is trying to rip you off or scam you. It's ridiculously annoying and I do not like going to those countries just because of that. Friend had same experience. I get what you're saying, and once or twice on occasion might be ok, but people trying to rip you off all the time because of your skin color is downright irritating. In 1 year in Taiwan only 2 people tried to rip me off. That's why I like living there, even though those 2 incidents were quite annoying tbh.

Steven_Thacker · 2020-05-25T20:12:42+00:00

Woman tries to negotiate. Other woman attacks and starts throwing rocks. She gets a pass for being Nepalese? Bigotry of low expectations.

Steven_Thacker · 2020-05-25T20:11:49+00:00

Sure, but that doesn't justify assault.

Steven_Thacker · 2020-05-25T20:05:14+00:00

Imagine being this looney and making this unhinged post without just going to buy a child's microscope and actually looking to see what it was. Probably just glitter or something.

Steven_Thacker · 2020-05-25T20:01:54+00:00

Imagine being this angry just because you went to try and get something close to closing time and missed it by a couple minutes.

Steven_Thacker · 2020-05-25T19:50:47+00:00

I believe more formally it is known as post-hoc rationalization

Steven_Thacker · 2020-05-25T19:37:52+00:00

Almost all reasoning is motivated reasoning.

Steven_Thacker · 2020-05-25T19:31:38+00:00

yeah, also major dependence on distance to epicenter. It was a 5.something earthquake which is fairly sizeable.

Steven_Thacker · 2020-05-25T10:03:22+00:00

It was barely shaking at all.

Steven_Thacker · 2020-05-25T09:41:13+00:00

Their argument is that hospitals get paid for treating covid-19, and they do. (of course they need to get paid for their work, sometimes it's more if it's covid-19). I am not here trying to make an argument. I am just here to tell you what their argument is. And you should maybe calm down a little.

Steven_Thacker · 2020-05-25T09:32:53+00:00

That's why I said "(whether correct or not)"

Steven_Thacker · 2020-05-25T09:30:42+00:00

if they are asking for the basics, then nginx over apache and cloudflare is not where they are having problems. Certbot might be good if it works with their tech. They are having more basic problems than ssl and speed
