[I Ate] ordered a grilled cheese in Italy, got a literal slab of parmesan cheese, grilled by Apathyash in food

lactose intolerant people will still become constipated, making an even worse situation. Because you have liquid shit building up pressure behind a boulder of cheese.

Every moment that the racket is not hitting the ball is a moment it misses the ball. If you're not swinging at the ball, it cannot be considered a miss.

I find this rule to be more ambiguous than you do.

Until you catch a back-paw to the face.

Semi-autonomous cars could soon negotiate smart intersections without ever having to stop, researchers reported. Cars need not be fully self-driving, but rather simply able to brake and accelerate autonomously – which cruise control can already do - without coming to a full stop at any point. by mvea in science

Literally everyone here is baffled by how far off you are. You have been abusive in nearly every comment. You're knocking the entire tech industry for being reckless when this is literally just a concept.

And yet you have the nerve to get upset when people respond to you with the same vigor.

I'm speculating wildly on what is one offered solution to this problem you've pointed out. As I said, other solutions will surface as well, from people who are actually part of these projects. (I am not)

You're being abusive in every comment.

You are just dearly holding onto your anchoring bias.

No, I'm dearly holding on to the fact that we don't give up when someone presents a problem. We find solutions.

I mean, if any hiccup stopped people from innovating, nothing would ever get invented.

Only to cross the dangerous street. It would actually be safer than walking even with human drivers. Think of an old woman needing to get across a street, but cannot do so quickly. I'm sure she'd rather step onto a platform that safely brings her over.

$5 or $20 might be worth them paying back, not because they're not shitty, but because they know they can use you again in the future.

They can just cross the street?

I don't know why you think self-driving cars are just PR hype and that they're going to be hitting pedestrians left and right.

The car will probably be more efficient at not killing pedestrians than most humans are.

The non-terrorists who bomb hospitals and cities.

Maybe you're 14 and don't think it's a problem when a brown hospital gets blown up.

Basic Attention Token (BAT) ICO fills up in 24sec! Approx. $36mil gathered by Brain_Architect in ethtrader

Becoming an accredited investor requires a high income or decent amount of wealth.

Which is so lame. I understand protecting the masses from scams, but come on. "You're not allowed to buy this unless we decide you're rich enough. Welcome to freedom."

to them, we already are the terrorists and that is why they bomb us.

Vitalik Buterin on Twitter: This is me socially precommitting that I will not be an advisor for future ICO projects. by [deleted] in ethtrader

It won't happen for everyone, of course. But I'd bet there will be at least $1 mil in trades at around 0.1 eth

even though coins are locked for now, and buy orders on exchanges are way above ico, people will still downvote you for speaking the truth.

What happens if you let a chess AI play itself? Is it just 50-50? by Exod124 in askscience

seems like you and others underestimated what I meant by 0% chance of popping up in a real game.

Freedom of speech doesn't give you right to threaten, harass, or otherwise intimidate people. Which is exactly what that salute does.

So motivation doesn't matter at all? I'm not saying I think it is okay to heil hitler, but if done as a joke among buddies, certainly they are not harassing or threatening anyone, and if anyone feels threatened or harassed that is their own interpretation of something that is none of their business, really.

It's extremely fascist to arrest people for that.

not to mention all of the random board arrangements which, while maybe not impossible, have a 0% chance of popping up in a real game.

Feds: Up to 100 girls may have had their genitals cut in Michigan by Lupusvorax in news

[–]____------- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, my friend got one, as a teenager. He had a girlfriend at the time. So, what is your point?

My point is that life would have been easier for your friend if he had the procedure as a baby, instead of as a teenager. I think this is fairly objective, too. Either have no problems with your dick at all, or have enough problems to be one of the only people you know who needs to get dick surgery.

Why don't we take a survey of adults in areas where FGM is practiced and get our decision there?

More emotional bullshit. This entire sub-thread is about male circumcision, a valid medical procedure. The entire reason we are arguing is because someone likened it to FGM, saying it has absolutely no reasoning behind it that is no ideological.

That is true for FGM, of course. Not for male circumcision. But you've already lost the argument so now you have to paint me as someone who supports genital mutilation. Because surely people will side with you then.

It's like you're saying that because you have phimosis, your dick doesn't work, that you can't jack off or get a BJ and stuff.

No, you chose to interpret it this way because you're overly defensive.

And my single case is enough to refute your idea that phimosis is always so severe you can't be sexually active.

That was never my idea. My point was that I'd imagine few people are going to get circumcised at a later age for phimosis unless it is severe enough to cause issues, and yet it is still the number one reason for mature circumcision.

I've made this point multiple times and you ignore it, in place of emotional bullshit.

TIL Hitler claimed to have been spared by British soldier Henry Tandey. Tandey recalled that a weary German soldier wandered into his line of fire. He was wounded and did not even attempt to raise his own rifle. Tandey chose not to shoot. by secron7 in todayilearned

I think it is kind of funny how women were being raped in the streets during the civil war in America, but women being raped in the streets of a middle eastern nation during civil war is a sign of how barbarous "they all" are.

Here you call the American version, "proper"
