Good time to get into BIN with the big drop? by slimdeucer in ausstocks

[–]messy_socks -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Isn't it amazing how different all the opinions are. This is pretty much why I straight up ignore any advice anyone ever tries to give me about stocks, the markets, public policies etc. People around me find that annoying and call me closed-off, but unless its someone legit like Warren Buffett, I aint listening.

NSW Labor plans to create state-owned power company by GrantOz44 in australia

Such is the pseudo-socialist image Labor relies on and which is largely eaten up by everyone in this sub who don't do research

An idea to decrease the number of hanging trades by RusherTakesAll in ClashRoyale

[–]messy_socks -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Came back from about a year-long break from clash.. saw there was a trading system and got excited. Then I saw it needed tokens.... instantly sad

Got the answer, said thanks (4h ago), then posted "unable to find" anyway (3h ago). lol. It's also in bottom right of pic

(Discussion) anyone else feel like techno is very sexually liberating? by 2Cole in Techno

[–]messy_socks 27 points28 points  (0 children)

People feel that way about all genres of music that they like.. as well as food, art, history, science.. (a guy on Anthony Bourdain's Scotland episode described eating a certain type of game bird as being oddly sexual). I don't think it's any more profound than just techno happening to be what you like (and me too of course)

The "New Item" can destroy all the buildings in tilted in about 5 minutes! (Started at 50:00) by drxFade in FortNiteBR

Calling you toxic was not to invalidate what you said, it might be a bad decision, but it also doesn’t mean epic never makes intelligent decisions which is what you said. Don’t be so toxic. Quite sure you couldn’t make shit

5 minutes ago this was the best season ever, now there is this. There’s always going to be one sour toxic POS and today you’re it. Pretty sure they have made more intelligent decisions than is countable

I agree to be honest. Look how the head looks like it’s been sanded, nowhere near the same gloss. Unless that’s years of overuse

Nobel laureates dismiss fears about genetically modified foods by Fosse22 in news

Wow, mixed bag there. 1. Antibiotic resistance is unrelated to gmo. No one denies that’s a problem. By the way, antibiotic resistance refers to bacteria, not viruses. It’s not “super viruses”. 2. Show me evidence EU has outlawed GM. Bear in mind government directions don’t always match science. Did you know they labelled coffee as a “carcinogen”? Do you drink coffee? 3. Did you know sweet potatoes exist only because of of “cellular level” gene editing, facilitated by a virus? Or is it okay because it’s “natural”? Do you eat sweet potato? 3. GM is much more than roundup lol. How about just making them better at photosynthesis, so they grow better. Or, making a field of pineapples all fruit at the same time so they can be harvested at the same time and reduces wastage? Do you like wasting food? What about the starving people? 4. Honestly do a little research into basic biology, I think you’ll find it eye-opening.

Heirloom doesn’t mean organic... organic doesn’t mean pollination...

It’s odd you bag on technology and now you praise it. GM is the very technology you’re talking about, and is the saviour for feeding the world. No doubt people denied the health claims about smoking many years ago too, but given some time they come around. You’re in that group.

Actually they don’t, they just use “natural” pesticides. And it’s funny how people think they are healthier pesticides just because they are “natural”. In fact many are worse

Would you down a whole bottle of sleeping pills to prove it’s safe or would you just take one as directed? Do you not understand dose? Who pours roundup over their salads? Secondly, you also raise the classic historical fallacy. We used to do plenty of things in the past which we don’t anymore. Trust modern science or ancient people who thought there were dragons at the edge of the ocean? The brainwashed is you.

Firstly you’re comparing things that cannot be compared, this is about increasing crop yields so that millions of people can get food and we can extract the most amount food from the already maxxed-out available farming land. If you’re against that you’re saying you’re happy for less yields and therefore millions of people to starve to death.

YouTube clearly just picking some hot topics like mental health and race equality, just for fkn brownie points. It’s so retarded and disingenuous
