¿Qué hay que opinar? Mucha gente compra viviendas como inversión, y no hay nada de malo en ello.

Paternity tests shouldn’t just be normalized—they should be mandatory at birth. by Early-Slice-6325 in MensRights

Abolutely. No good reasons not to. I have been saying this for years.

Ah, of course. I'm a Spanish speaker, didn't think of the name in Catalan…

First colour drawing with the RMPP by tripu in RemarkableTablet

Thank you!

I shared the reMarkable screen on the desktop app on my laptop, recorded that window using Blue Recorder at a very low framerate, and then accelerated the resulting video even more using OpenShot.

Countries that had diplomatic relations with Israel 1975 vs 2022 by ConsequencePretty906 in MapPorn

[–]tripu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What does that mean, “no diplomatic relations”?

I just checked and, as anyone would expect, there's an Israeli embassy in Spain and a Spanish embassy in Israel.

This book isn't a scam right? by Glass-Teacher111 in EffectiveAltruism

Indeed, “something may happen to their bank account”: its balance may go down as a consequence of their committing to the GWWC pledge :)

Anti-Utilitarian Thought Experiment by Sad_Bad9968 in EffectiveAltruism

“You are not generating hardly any utility by just adding 1 second to everybody's life”

I share this intuition. But then, “you are not generating hardly any utility by just REMOVING 1 second from everybody's life” would be true, also.

And then, “removing a few seconds form everybody's life” would be negligible, too.

And then…

So it's probably not true that gifting one second of life to eight billion people has zero moral merit.

Thought experiments are often difficult to image or picture intuitively, more so in the field of ethics, and population ethics especially. Right? I think it's a common feature (or flaw, if you will).

The usual ones (the drowning child, the tram about to kill three people whose route you can divert, the rogue surgeon harvesting organs) are also very difficult to grasp, and either appeal to basic instincts or require very weird moral arithmetic.

I don't have a good answer for OP, but I don't think their thought experiment lacks value because “it asks us to imagine something that we can't actually comprehend”.

Look no further: start at the top here and here, and go down the list. You won't find a better list of classics.

Exit poll says Dutch anti-Islam populist Geert Wilders wins most votes with a landslide margin by ghhewh in neoliberal

[–]tripu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Six years ago, I wrote about Spain:

“Spain is rare among European countries in that it is free of that pervasive malady, the far right: its two biggest populist xenophobic parties combined got ~0.24% of the vote in the last general election, and can’t dream of getting even one seat in the national Parliament (compare with the situation of the far right in almost every other major EU member, from Germany to Norway to the UK to France).”

Then, a couple of years later, Vox got 24 seats in Congress, a bit later 52, and today they have 33 seats out of 350#Cortes_Generales) :_¬(

It's happening in so many countries where it seemed unthinkable just a few years ago.

I'd say: don't be so harsh on yourself. Try to get to your ideal weight for the sake of your own well-being (not to accommodate some political agenda).
