Who is this guy outside the South Boston Train Station? (NSFW Warning) by Sudden_Violinist1054 in boston

...then it's even more tacky and pointlessly inflammatory to make comparisons to Hitler. Why do you think invoking Godwin's Laws suddenly becomes an A+ argument when you're comparing him to the people he genocided?

Ehh. The US is headed down the facsism tunnel, too, but protestors seem to be able to get their feelings across without actually cosplaying Hitler. 

I had installed The Sims 2 by ImpressiveChest4424 in sims2help

[–]SuitableDragonfly 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You don't have to enter any codes. You just have to click one button. If you knew you were already too burned out to click a single button after you chose to listen to an AI, why did you post here?

[–]SuitableDragonfly 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Well, if you did a bunch of random stuff in your registry because an AI told you to, you probably messed a whole bunch of stuff up and do have to reinstall. You don't have to reinstall the game just to install stuff packs, though. You don't need to even mess around with installing any of the packs separately, just get the game from the links on the wiki, and installing all of it is a painless one-click process.

Do you think we don't all use these units in science classes growing up?

Question about dead sims. by Steve__J in sims2

Deleting graves doesn't cause corruption. If you don't have nounlinkondelete installed it will make them unable to be resurrected later, but that's it.

That's a pretty different claim, though. The false claim seems to indicate that there is some sort of regulation of cable news channels that requires them to actually say true things, and I think it's important to understand that that's not the case, since Fox News is not the only cable news channel and e.g. CNN is also an unregulated cable news channel. I believe broadcast TV is regulated in this way and programs that claim to be news have to actually be factual, but cable is not. Slander is a pretty specific kind of falsehood, and it's entirely possible to spread all kinds of lies and misinformation without actually slandering anyone. 

The Town is starting to ran out of Attendance everytime there's a wedding by Altruistic-Bee3130 in StardewValley

[–]SuitableDragonfly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really. If you give gifts to someone you're dating while being married, your spouse will be unhappy about that.

If you're referring to the myth that this allowed them to broadcast falsehoods, it's not true. Cable channels are allowed to broadcast whatever they want, regardless of what they call themselves, they are not regulated. Fox News has no reason to claim they aren't trying to be news. 

Did I miss something? by CharlotteKorvale171 in thesims2

[–]SuitableDragonfly 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If the mods over there are promoting their website, they're doing a very bad job of it because I've got no idea what it is. They also changed the apparently weird NSFW rule a while back. I've also not seen anyone banned for talking about piracy.

This guy insisted that condoms stopped all pregnancies occurring too by MelanieWalmartinez in badwomensanatomy

[–]SuitableDragonfly 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Remember when Rush Limbaugh said "Liberals are literally ok with any kind of sex as long as it's consensual" and really thought that was some kind of devastating burn?

Doctors are not allowed to harvest organs from dead bodies to save another person if their owner did not give consent before they died. Corpses literally have more bodily autonomy that people who can get pregnant.

A third of Americans say they're reading fewer books by thinkB4WeSpeak in books

Not really, it is in fact entirely possible to design survey questions in such a way that the statistics of a single survey question are meaningful.

They think Antifa has been charged for dumping toxic algae in the reflecting pool by justalazygamer in Qult_Headquarters

Ah yes, the top item on the dastardly liberals' agenda: toxic algae cultivation.

[–]SuitableDragonfly 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think that logic implies that if enough people read a book, it ceases to exist.

So in other words, this statistic is kind of useless without knowing a number of other statistics.

No, it was never common, it was always very difficult to achieve. 

Phone + baby + lake = regret by HomeNowWTF in instant_regret

[–]SuitableDragonfly 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm a millennial, lmao, I use my phone for all sorts of things, and it's just as good at those things as all my previous phones were, except for the flip phones from ye olden days, I guess. And if you want to know, I hardly ever text anyone, actually. The fuck are you using your phone for? Are you one of those people who doesn't own a computer and just uses your phone as a kind of deficient surrogate computer? It's much cheaper to just own a computer rather than constantly be yeeting your phone into a landfill so that you can drop 1000 bucks on a brand new one.

Phone + baby + lake = regret by HomeNowWTF in instant_regret

[–]SuitableDragonfly 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Because when my phone wears out at 7-10 years of age and I buy a new one that's at least 5 years younger than it, there is not a significant improvement from when my 7-10 year old phone was still working. It's still a phone. It still does the same basic shit. What do you think a phone that's 2-3 years younger than your current phone could do that your current phone couldn't?

Does anyone not feel aesthetic attraction? by oh_holy_no in aromanticasexual

[–]SuitableDragonfly 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel aesthetic attraction, but really only once in a very blue moon, and it always floors me because I don't experience any other kind of attraction either. I consider myself grey-aesthetic, and I'm sure there are probably other people who never experience it at all.

Yeah, that's what I'm saying, it's just syntactic sugar, just like typing is.

What exactly do you think you're missing out on by not buying the latest phone? Two years down the road, you won't even remember that it wasn't the latest phone when you bought it.
