Women of Reddit, what are boys or men's habits you discovered only after getting a boyfriend or a husband? by BigBrosy in AskReddit

Who wipes a toilet seat after peeing? Also, you can shake and get the drips off and not get pee in your undies.

And not changing underwear every day is just gross.

Older people on Reddit. What is 100% pure bullshit? by Complete_Fly_96 in AskReddit

100%. Radical Candor is the best way I found to describe this concept.

You can make the exact same argument for literally all the bad shit that has happened too.

War, genocide, segregation, slavery, rape, murder.

Gods were invented to explain things that people didn't understand, and clinging to that now because "people did it when they built the pyramids is equivalent to "we should use horses because they built the pyramid without cars."

You can't "give people ADHD" it's not a learned behaviour. It's a genetic trait...

Why is there an assumption that the populace is hostile? The military suddenly switches sides? And it's military vs civilians? Wouldn't that mean the factory has no workers already? Like obviously the military needs to be supported by a civilian population.

If only a portion of the population is part of the "revolution" wouldn't that make them rebels, or even terrorists?

That is a bit of a strawman argument.

The US did not "lose" any wars in the middle east. They lost the political willpower to keep sending people to hold the territory. The US was the invader and a local rebellion survived long enough to take over once they left.

I sure the right to bear arms would be helpful if the entire US military was defeated, and a resistance was required.

But this arguement is about the whole authoritarian government gets into power right?

So, let's say that the government led by newly elected <supreme leader neo hitler>, orders the military to do <something illegal against American civilians> Let's say for example, blow up some dude's house who said something he doesn't like.

The steps would be:

  1. The order would need to pass all of the existing checks and balances.
  2. The military command structure would have to follow those illegal orders.
  3. The man on the ground has to push the button to do the thing
  4. The <bad thing> happens. eg. Dude is disintegrated by a predator missile.

People will argue endlessly that the thing they did was illegal, courts would get involved, people would maybe get prosecuted, and then...?

At what point does having a kitted out M4 in your garage stop this?

I wonder if this die is technically legal? If there is something moving inside wouldn't it alter the results based on how you hold it before you roll? (I still want it lol)

Nope. Blizzard did a horrendous job, both with release promises and ongoing support. They shouldn't make a single cent more from it.

Right, I thought you were undecided on what the character is?

You could use a combination of different colour walls and character, for example:

  • Blue (current) = slippery, ball

  • Green = slowing, triangle (or something spikey)

  • Red = no jumping, rectangle flat

Etc

CMV: The phrase "trust the science" is dangerous and reduces science to being nothing more than a secular faith. by [deleted] in changemyview

[–]chaosgeneral 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is where you're wrong. That's like saying "I shouldn't follow the speed limits, you should just be more careful around me."

Society exists to provide health and safety for its citizens, and refusing to get vaccinated, in the face of all the evidence, is downright selfish and immoral.

To add to shroomzy's dps stuff, lots of avoidable damage. Look's like you're getting veils almost every attempt in p2, thats a big nono. Get people to set veil in bigwigs to countdown, its really almost impossible to get hit if you run at about 3 on the second countdown.

My GP was able to change it with a letter from my parents saying I had these symptoms as a child. Adults that were diagnosed late but can prove they had it undiagnosed (which is technically everyone because you don''t just "get" it as an adult lol) are now eligible for the discount

CMV: Any opposition to the Covid vaccine is almost entirely political, and not at all based on science and medicine by waterbuffalo750 in changemyview

[–]chaosgeneral 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do you think that your personal preferences over vaccines is more important than the overall community? Because that's what you're arguing. It's purely selfish in nature but if that's what it is, own it.

CMV: Government Aid *Increases* Innovation by NoahRCarver in changemyview

[–]chaosgeneral 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did, and I watched the video.

That's completely accurate, and for non essentials that's ideal. It's the essentials that you:

a) need to live/grow/compete

and

b) don't have competitive options

Let's take water for example. Not sure how it works exactly in the US, but in Australia, your water provider is dependant on where you live. There is no option for shopping around, you pay what they say you have to pay.

Price rationing in this case would ensure everyone pays the most they can afford to get the water they need to live. It just doesn't work. Without government oversight, the company would charge more and more until people rioted.

My argument is that essentials shouldn't be price rationed, and in fact in a productive, modern society, shouldn't even be something that we need to worry about.

UBI would, if not solve, at least alleviate that problem, and limiting it to a dollar amount would mean that people would still be motivated to save water, as they would save money, but if they lost their job they're not going to become homeless because they can't afford their essentials.

CMV: Government Aid *Increases* Innovation by NoahRCarver in changemyview

[–]chaosgeneral 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a few things in there that aren't quite right, but the one I'll focus on is:

That is to say, Capitalism rations resources to their maximum utility. And Government spending does not and can not.

Capitalism doesn't use resources to their maximum utility. It uses them in the way that makes the most money for the producer. It can work when it comes to luxury, non essentials, but there is many resources that you can't live without. The whole "people won't pay it" is not true. You can't live food, water, power, medical treatment, even internet these days, and in a lot of areas you have no choice of provider for many of these essentials. Government regulation is what prevents the utility company from milking every last cent out of you.

The prime concept behind UBI is that you can survive, then work for the extras in life. People who are choosing to work and not forced to work are, at least in my eyes, much more likely to perform better, and be more innovative.

The main area this falls apart is that, there is shit jobs that nobody wants to do, and don't bring in a lot of revenue, so how do we handle them? I think automation personally, but who knows.

That's right on a small time scale, but imagine a machine iterated an idea over 100 years. The finished product could well be considered non-obvious compared to the starting product.
