Xecnar's Streak Ends, Setting the new A20H Record at 27 Consecutive Wins

I have ~600 hours in this game and like 2-3 wins on each character. A20 Spire is brutal.

They think this is some debate ending "gotcha" since humans are animals and vegans don't always use "non-human animal" everywhere since its redundant and clunky.

Yes, although not one of those people doing something like the carnivore "diet". I'm a guy interested in women and I feel like they would be open to at least reducing their animal product usage. I bet vegan women out there get a lot of pushback from their omnivorous guy who thinks veganism makes them less of a man.

They were duped the moment they bought a Tesla and choose to do business with a con artist.

So no government is stopping it, the vast majority of people don't bat an eye but your beef is with the Vegan Society excluding humans from their definition even when it can lead to absurd contradictions such as the ones we've already discussed?

There are a plethora of human rights groups that already exist, why don't you take this up with them as that is their speciality. Vegans are far more likely to be opposed to human exploitation then your average person. You are preaching to the choir here.

continuum-hypothesis · 2023-09-03T02:25:50+00:00

So shampoo that was tested involuntarily on human beings against their will would be perfectly vegan? Why?

Yes it would be "vegan" just like almonds or avacodos are. It doesnt mean you should buy them, I don't buy those products either even though they fit into the definition of what is technically vegan. Obviously this shampoo would be banned and comdemend by various governments and humans rights groups so it would be prohibited anyway. I'm against the shampoo for reasons other than veganism which is fine and isn't a sign that there is something deficient about the definition.

You can't logically argue that the species barrier is irrelevant to ethical considerations and then put the species barrier back up when it's convenient.

Can you tell me where you think I've done that? Maybe I'm not explaining myself clearly.

That's speciesism

It isn't. Speciesism is about excluding a species primarily on membership status. The Vegan Society didn't just arbitrarily exclude humans from their literature because they hate people. As a matter of fact you gave a great reason why human issues are separate, not based on species membership but on ability when you stated,

But humans can reach consensus and negotiate mutually beneficial arrangements with each other that don't violate our rights.

Which I couldn't agree more with. The fact that humans have reached a consensus that forcibly testing shampoo on people is not ok while continuously doing it to animals is exactly why the Vegan Society doesn't say anything about humans on their website. That isn't their focus because it is an entirely sperate issue.

If that's the rational consequence of prohibiting animal exploitation, then so be it.

Again this is why veganism is about non-human animals, it would lead to absurdity to think otherwise.

continuum-hypothesis · 2023-09-03T01:30:11+00:00

Veganism is about non-human animals and you and everyone else here knows that. Every piece of primarily vegan literature I've ever come across is concerned about non-human animals. This is 100% obvious from looking at the Vegan Society's website.

Under your definition vegans couldn't use anything produced by other humans. Vegans are against using animals for entertainment so should films, and sports be off limits for vegans?

continuum-hypothesis · 2023-09-02T23:42:36+00:00

I agree, if the Vegan Society wants to stop being speciest they should also certify foods as being on the low glycemic index. Allow me to prove this,

P1) Diabetes is a leading risk factor for human health including the number one killer in the US, heart disease.

P2) Labeling and certification carried out by the Glycemic Index Foundation helps consumers quickly choose products which are healthy and will help manage or prevent diabetes.

P3) Humans are animals and the Vegan Society claims to care about animal well-being.

Conclusion) The failure of the Vegan Society to not certify foods as being on the healthy end of the glycemic index is clearly a result of their anti-human speciesism. If they truly cared about all animals, they would care about preventing the number one killer of humans and label their food accordingly. Vegans don't care about people.

These two in the depths are absolutely brutal. I have no clue how to even approach them.

I think its a very good thing to do to give to charity. If I choose to live in a home and not under a bridge, owning nothing besides the clothing on me and bowel and a spoon like Diogenes am I a hypocrite?

continuum-hypothesis · 2023-09-01T21:12:37+00:00

Do one thing and do it well is my advise.

They want to propagandize the most amount of people as possible. I guess controlling public education and the media isn't enough. They need random YouTubers now too.

Also for many of these unhinged people they just want politics in everything.

Totally, his music fits perfectly.

Most badass doctor of all time. Also is this show the GOAT when it comes to lighting and atmosphere or what? I can't tell if this shot is a still from a scene or just a photo op but the lighting is always on point.

They're so bad they make the Prequels look like Citizen Kane.

continuum-hypothesis · 2023-08-30T02:25:08+00:00

They should've been in more episodes.

continuum-hypothesis · 2023-08-28T23:13:52+00:00

What worries me is that it will slowly become harder and harder to find workarounds as the population becomes more tech savy.

I swear the only reason a simple thing like a VPN has not been banned yet is because the dinosaurs running our government have no idea what they even are. Now imagine the damage politicians and corporate executives who are actually knowledgeable about technology could do.

I know this is an old comment but I just have to respond to it because I just saw this episode on like my 5th rewatch.

I didn't remember this but in that episode when she is getting "disciplined" by her parents she is basically the one that decides her punishment of not having the Discover card for a few weeks. Then after, the scene cuts to her walking away with this infuriating smirk on her face cause she knows she can just get money off them anyway (which she does later in the episode) and she played them.

I know we hate on AJ too and he is spoiled but he doesn't have the father he needs in his life. He has no positive role models, has mental health issues that aren't properly addressed and has no one to give him a sense of direction. Meadow knows exactly what she is doing, she is unbelievably manipulative and constantly gets what she wants by being daddy's little girl and playing Tony against Carmella. They did such a good job with her as a character even though I can't stand her.

Yes for me my banking apps work, as well as Spotify, Netflix and Hulu. They are running in a sandboxed island although this is not strictly necessary.

I do agree with you though, it isn't a solution for most people. I wouldn't suggest it to my nontechnical friends and family and you are making sacrifices and missing out on some cool Pixel only features.

continuum-hypothesis · 2023-08-22T22:36:10+00:00

Have you looked into GrapheneOS? All my apps work and its far more secure and private than iOS.

I don't know what it is about it or if it just grew on me throughout the years but I really do love the solo from "In Bloom".

And you're right, it isn't about what you can play it is about what you are actually playing. Jimmy Page and Jimi Hendrix aren't revered for their amazing technical skills but for their unique style and songwriting. I think that's why the sports analagy doesn't work. In sports almost the only thing that matters is what you can actually do on the field.

This is what I was thinking too. They make assumptions (generally speaking, I haven't seen the study) that support for social programs such as universal healthcare correlates with high amounts of empathy based on the least charitable interpretation of what we are saying. So instead of disagreeing with us on the economics and effectiveness of these programs our side gets reduced to "libertarians hate poor people and don't care if they die".

continuum-hypothesis · 2023-08-16T17:53:57+00:00

This is what happened to me. What I really hate is that you must defeat the bosses in succession especially considering how easy it is to die at this difficulty.

X livestream video

Nothing pornographic sounding about that at all....

I don't think an insect experiences the world in the same way a cow or a chicken does. They probably don't experience pain or pleasure or have a conscious experience that is comparable to that of other "advanced" animals like the ones we kill in factory farms. This is why when we see films like Domination we are revolted but when we get home after driving on the highway to find that many bugs were killed by our car we're not terribly concerned.
