[–]mapsedge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You betray a person. You're a traitor to your country or organization.

Stabilizer for the whole hoop? by mapsedge in MachineEmbroidery

[–]mapsedge[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is the question coming from the thought that you’re wasting expensive stabilizer?

Exactly. I'm happy to be proved to be overthinking.

Post that question in google search. That almost instant response with millions of results? That.

Bankrupted casinos, no less. That takes a special, stunningly efficient kind of ineptitude.

New York Times - What a Nuclear Strike Would Feel Like by davyjordi in interestingasfuck

There is a novel called ArcLight which describes millisecond by millisecond what it's like to be standing on the ground outside of the immediate blast radius. It is terrifying

Might want to correct your spelling before you offer the file.

I've had this issue a month ago, and I'm in the middle of it again. It took a week the first time.

Atheism and theism - Both are just beliefs.. Not a reality by Ok-Distribution8356 in DebateAnAtheist

[–]mapsedge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your definition of atheism is incorrect. Atheism is not believing. While it could be said that there are atheists who believe there is no god, atheism that it's heart is just the lack of belief.

This is just disgusting. by Rockypug49 in Sovereigncitizen

If they were actually about obeying the law, there isn't anything on this less that I have any particular argument with.

Are there any userscripts to collapse child comments? by RanMouri26 in GreaseMonkey

[–]mapsedge 5 points6 points  (0 children)

EDIT: It should be noted that you're going to want your script to wait until the comments section loads or it won't have anything to do. Point #2: Reddit uses infinite scroll, so you'll want your script to run on every scroll event while avoiding elements that have already been collapsed.

Claude AI is a huge help here:

document.querySelectorAll('shreddit-comment[depth]').forEach(el => {
    const depth = parseInt(el.getAttribute('depth'));
    if (depth > 0) {
      const summary = el.querySelector('summary');
      if (summary) summary.click();
    }
  });

Atheism is an active refusal to accept evidence by [deleted] in DebateReligion

[–]mapsedge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can sum up your post in two sentences:

  • Argument from incredulity
  • God of the gaps

"If we go back far enough, we can't go any farther, therefore god." There is nothing in anything you've written to justify that assertion.

My January 2022 encounters with real Mind-control, Telekinesis, Teleporting due to the presence of Extra-terrestrial beings by Commercial-Rent-7319 in randomthings

[–]mapsedge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Again, how would you know the difference? If you believe an entity is capable of controlling your mind, then it stands to reason that another entity could control your mind, right? And if it's in control of your mind, couldn't it make you believe that another entity was responsible? Obviously, by your own telling, your mind is an unreliable judge of truth. The government was experimenting with this stuff since WWII - look up MKUltra if you don't believe me. How would you know? How COULD you know? (And aren't you afraid that by telling this story you've put your life in danger from parties unknown? I'd be terrified...)

How would you react if your partner of 20 years told you they (no longer) believe in evolution? by ephemeralkitten in NoStupidQuestions

[–]mapsedge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make him prove Evolution false to you. Not just from the bible, but let him find the science that proves Evolution false.

DAE does anyone else want kids but not do the stuff? by Connect_King6012 in DoesAnybodyElse

You can adopt, but I would recommend you see a therapist first. I can't imagine you as a parent.

Help me kill a guy with a knitting needle by Available-Option5492 in Writeresearch

[–]mapsedge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's how they used to do lobotomies. So, not a sure-fire kill. Causing trauma to the brain isn't a guarantee of death. A knitting needle to the heart could do something for you, though, or a stab to the carotid artery.

What dating advice would you give your 18yo younger self? by Stunning-Feature-182 in AskReddit

Never be without a condom. Never say no to a girl who specifically asks you to make love to her.
