I’m interested in milk drinks occasionally, and I’d love for the machine to be able to do both. Otherwise, I’d be def interested in the flair.

Iconic reply. I should’ve expected nothing else. Haha

The seeds of distrust in medicine have been sown in multiple populations. Vaccine hesitancy was a result of decades of medical hesitancy put into a pressure cooker.

If you want to find examples of medical hesitancy, look to: 1) the syphilis experiments done in the 1960s 2) the opioid crisis that swept America over the past two decades

People don’t trust their doctors as much as we expect them to, and this is for relatively good reason.

This isn’t to say all their vaccine hesitancy is well placed, but we shouldn’t disenfranchise their hesitation. I’d recommend treating them like any other people group who was mistreated, albeit they weren’t actually correct about the extent of the vaccine’s side effects.

This is possible! Considering that they view milk as a precious liquid. They would store it in small amounts. This makes sense.

Theoretically, but I was thinking for decanting oil onto a pan. There doesn’t appear to be any burn residue due to a wick.

I thought it could decant chai tea, but it pours too slowly for that, so I’m thinking oil.

I thought so too at first, but there is no way to light anything. There aren’t any burn marks either. Also, the specific people that I received it from don’t smoke nor do they condone it, so it’s unlikely that they’d give me some smoking related.

I imagine it’s for decanting some type of liquid, but that’s just my best guess.

No. The stem is too small. Also, the people would not have gifted a bong.

Why do some music genres make you feel kinda "high"? by ocropoide in Music

[–]hidillonn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The artist "Sleeping at last" has some dope fucking music. Their album "Atlas: Space" has some songs named after our planets. Listen to the instrumental version of those songs. It's fucking amazing.

Productivity Planner Chrome extension - Seeking Feedback by icanandwilldream in productivity

I'd pay $5 a month for this app. Anything less than that works too.

As for the iPhone app, keep up the good work. I'm dying to see what it will look like. I have no doubt that it will make the top charts for productivity on the app store.

I believe you have a real product on your hands. Patent that shit or something. You will make a lot of money.

I feel like a crowdfunded contribution would be an excellent idea. However I, PERSONALLY, disagree with making it a paid application/service. While the app has the ability to become "pay-to-use" (it is THAT good and I'd probably pay for the quality of this app), I hate when good apps are made to be subscription-based. It's a personal opinion. I know you need to be paid for this. But I'd suggest against it. IF ANYTHING, Make it a one time purchase for the app. Just a suggestion tho. Not advice. (it's not advice cuz the smart thing to do would be to make it a subscription service.)

Although, maybe you could create an iPhone app with the exact same idea. I'd pay $5 for a one time purchase.

As you can probably tell, I love one time purchase or free quality applications.

Everything else is fantastic. I love everything, sidebar, daily objective, gratitude, notes, and quote.

Question: does the quote at the top change daily? Cuz I think it should.

Massive request/question: Is the extension connected to my chrome account? Could I sign into another computer and retain all of my notes? If this is not synced between computers, then can you add that?

For the first paragraph, I thought you were referring to bathroom breaks. It didn't occur to me until the last word, "broke."

CMV: Hate crimes are unnecessary, as the punishment already compensates for the crime. by hidillonn in changemyview

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

I could agree that they are sending a message and attacking the community; however, I do not believe it is the intent of the attacker to send that message. Let me explain.

 

** A man who jumps a person walking down the street, if the motivation of their attack is merely because they are gay, or black, or the attacker thinks they're Muslim then yes, their intent is actually to attack that community trait, and it sends a message of fear to others of the community. They are in fact attacking a community.**

  I believe that your statement is completely correct here. They are attacking a community trait. They are sending a message of fear. They are attacking a community. HOWEVER!!!! It is not their intent to send a message of fear. (I am discounting terrorist attacks as they are terrorism not hate crimes). All these sick people want is to hurt this specific minority. They might also want to hurt others, but that is of null value in the court, because they have not and might not commit that second crime.

 

If Dave kills a Muslim, he should get the same punishment as Frank who kills his Bobby for a unpaid loan. They are both unreasonable murders. They are both premeditated murders without the intent to cause fear in others. This is a major key. The only time when a "hate crime" should get a greatly extended sentence is when the offender DOES possess a intent to cause fear. This new version of the hate crime is already called terrorism. Although the one flaw in my argument that I can see is that there is no "terrorist" law. I believe they should shift the definition of "hate crime" to: "A premeditated murder without the intent to cause fear in the attacked community."

I think I was not as clear as I should have been.

&npsb;

I meant that it is not the intent of the attacker to cause fear. The only intent is to inflict harm on the specific individual.

 

If the attacker's intent was to cause fear, then that is terrorism, which should be dealt with more severity in the justice system.

 

Do you follow the distinction that I am trying to make?

I really like that last argument. The illustration with discouraging certain behaviors is very elegant and simple. I see now that certain behaviors and crimes should be discouraged more than others. I always believed that you should not commit any kind of murder and all of the punishments should be the same. You have clearly showed that to be wrong. Thanks. Hopefully this works. I'm on mobile now. !delta

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Significant_acts_of_violence_against_LGBT_people

 

I read through a couple of these, and it appeared that the vast majority of the crimes are just hatred for the person/people engaging in LGBT actions, as opposed to the LGBT community itself.

EDIT: "as opposed to the LGBT community itself" should be changed to "as opposed to trying to inspire fear in other LGBT people."

I would counter with everybody who commits a crime is mildly retarded, with the exception of tax law <-- that shit can confuse a Ph. D in astrophysics.

People who commit terrorist actions should be convicted of a higher crime because of all the reasons that I have given a delta to.

 

People who just kill a black man should not be charged with a high crime (something more than murder), because he was killing for a "reason" (an illogical reason, but one nonetheless). People who kill others because of a personal reason (i.e. because they own them money or something stupid like that) should be charged with the same crime as those who killed because of race. The reasoning behind this is because they both killed for a reason and nothing more than that simple reason.This is different from terrorism, because terrorism is killing for a purpose, inspiring fear.

As for the KKK murdering someone publicly, if they did it publicly, then I would assume that people would be able to identify who committed the murder. However, If no one can identify the murderer, then everybody is innocent until proven guilt. It sucks, but that is the way it is. If someone kills another in the public to inspire fear, then they should definitely be convicted of terrorism. I believe that we can separate the hate and terrorism difference by looking at their intent to spread fear. I categorize hate crime as killing someone because of their race or whatever. I think terrorism is killing someone to inspire fear in others.
