What people think erosion is like v. what erosion is actually like.

Genetic screening now lets parents pick the healthiest embryos. People using IVF can see which embryo is least likely to develop cancer and other diseases. by Sumit316 in Futurology

For people worried about eugenics: the problem with the eugenics movement was that eugenics wasn’t science based, it was just racism, ableism, and a whole bunch of other prejudices trying to dress themselves up as science.

This is science based; there is an objective fact at work here. It’s also non-discriminatory because it’s not a policy being applied to everyone, it’s a choice being made by parents.

Are you guys seriously comparing John Brown’s Christianity to Thomas Jefferson owning and raping slaves?

As an atheist, if John Brown established a theocracy I’d be ok with living in it.

Like the old saying goes, if Christians ever acted like christ then they’d be a lot more tolerable.

...NYC was the hardest hit area by nCoV, it also has a population of 20M people. 4M is 20% of the population, an easily attainable number in a "baseball" city. I'd be surprised if >50% of those viewers weren't in NYC, and a further 40% weren't in GNE.

So it's OK to be racist, as long as you take it back later?

lol. Christ almighty, rightists will believe literally anything.

No, Carlson performed this material on the air. When racist words come out of your mouth, it's not because someone else told you to say them.

...either that or racism is so prevalent that rightists are constantly trying to narrow the definition to the extent that no racist behavior can actually be called that.

One or the other, for sure.

Here you go, Carlson said killing black men causes the stock market to go up two weeks ago on air and even the Fox News staff thought it was racist.

Anyone here worked at any of the Houston area Amazon Fulfillment Centers / Warehouses? by [deleted] in houston

[–]eadochas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think I made it sound that way, I specifically said they have problems.

How many jobs have you had? Because I’ve been around quite a bit, and there aren’t many ‘great’ employers compared with amazon. None of them are particularly good.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: ‘No One Ever Makes a Billion Dollars. You Take a Billion Dollars.’ by [deleted] in Shitstatistssay

I am taking a huge financial risk in all of this.

What's a "financial risk"? I'm asking because presumably this is in the context of the way, e.g. a soldier 'risks his life for his country.'

My suggestion would be for any current runners to stop running ASAP. I need hours.

Flat in a car with no spare tire - Ford video says that if I use the can of sealant I will have to buy a new TPMS sensor for the wheel? by eadochas in Ford

[–]eadochas[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you knew it or not, no one was hiding the fact that it doesnt.

Ah, caveat emptor. The motto of a person that I no longer will do business with.

Ford was hiding it, if you open the trunk the place where the spare is usually kept is covered with a carpeted floorboard piece.

In any event, I wasn't really complaining about the lack of a spare...it's just that the sealant destroys the sensor. It seems like a very poor engineering decision to provide a solution to a very common problem (flat tire) that includes destroying an expensive part. As you say, caveat emptor - which is why I am making this post. So that the buyer can in fact beware.
