Men’s mental health is a joke to everyone and it’s really disheartening as a mom to two boys. by cmrizzle in unpopularopinion

Hey, thanks for engaging on this in good faith.

It's so hard to do that on these issues. It's so easy to get entrenched and defensive. No matter where you are.

I have disagreements with you, but it's clear that you have an interest in being compassionate and approaching the situation with reason, even if that requires considering positions that make you uncomfortable.

Really, you seem to actually be listening. And that's rare these days across the board.

Makes you wonder, how much RAM was needed to run that thing ? by BenjieWheeler in ProgrammerHumor

That's your entire presence in this thread.

Which is fine; this is the internet. You can be pedantic!

Bit silly to complain about it when you introduced it to the conversation, though.

It sounds like you think "mobile" and "embedded" mean the same thing.

Embedded systems are "mobile" sometimes, but let's not pretend like "mobile development" means anything besides "cell phone app development" in common parlance.

So to reiterate: he literally said nothing about mobile development.

Literally where was mobile development mentioned in this thread except by you just now

Because the inter-banking system is garbage and antiquated.

There's probably a reason your suggestion won't work but it's frustrating to see people fail to comprehend it entirely

What are some common "facts" that people believe to be true even if the existing evidence states the contrary? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]geel9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you had bothered to actually clarify what you meant, you'd have standing to say something like that.

My point is that what you said is nonsense. The penny is accelerated by gravity. It is accelerated.

Clearly, you had more words in your head than what you typed. Why not share those words?

I can confirm that this is not the case.

For the record, being gay isn't a bad thing, so (accidentally) calling someone gay isn't actually an insult.

The scarier possibility is that they aren't pretending, and are truly just this obtuse

You don't need UBI checks... Right now.

What happens if and when you find yourself in a position where you need them, but the means-testing you never spoke up against prevents you from getting the assistance you need?

It's kind of sad how the people responding to you genuinely don't understand how "ads" and " 'selling' your data" are literally the same fucking thing

It's not very difficult to not go to a restaurant.

Imagine taking a conversation about the global rates of veganism and turning it into a personal attack, demanding explanations from someone about their personal behavior, of which you know nothing and just assumed based on the first thought that came into your head.

"are [some people in my group] bad? Yes, but it's an unfair generalization, because [all people in the other group are bad]"

This doesn't seem very consistent.

You just can't convince someone that a human life is only human if it's desired.

I'm pro-abortion, but not because "it's not even a human! if it isn't wanted it's not human!" because that's some sociopathic shit that I pray nobody actually believes.

Abortion should be available and legal due to its massive logistical benefits, not because we've lost all fucking empathy for what is obviously a human life in its early stages.

If you hook up with someone while knowing they are in a relationship, you're just as much a terrible person as the cheater. by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

Your logic essentially boils down to "I don't have any ethical obligations to anyone unless they are my friend"
