The 97% claim is bullshit: https://www.google.com.tw/amp/s/www.forbes.com/sites/alexeps... I do believe that there is man made climate change, however, but this meme has to end.

I was thinking of another strategy could be a git plugin that had a config file of salted hashed secrets. If someone tried to commit something with a secret, it could then stop it before it was leaked. Of course, you'd need to collec

There is no jury in family court, and as the article shows, child support wasn't waived. It's always justified by whatever is "in the best interest of the chilllldrrreeeenn"

If most people ends up investing in strictly index funds, it would end up badly foe them but I don't see it by itself causing a destabilization. Just a lot of people making sub market profits. It would take a large amount of people doi

You've heard the song, "Dude looks like a lady", right? It would make the title a lot less impactful if this was generally accepted.

In other words, religion trumps modern medicine for mental illness. I agree, but I don't see this tribe's beliefs having a special status or better probability of success above any other religion.

So? Human beings have the ability to make a huge impact on the environment, and therefore the value assigned by people to various outcomes and tradeoffs does matter.

In both cases, the planet would carry on. It depends on your perspective as to which matters more, human intelligence and knowledge, or nature. I personally believe the former is more important than the latter, although that doesn't me

You shouldn't care about magic internet points. I wish I would have been able to read your comment.

How about open a wormhole in space time to travel back in time and fix things in the past? Both have about the same probability of happening.

This isn't a scam. The author admits they had an actual reason for denying him. It was a mistake in his record and they charged an exorbitant processing fee, but there is nothing that shows they acted in bad faith.

> Were you forced into having that child in the first place? The victim of a rape had to play child support. So, he was forced into having a child. In general, some men are forced into having children by women who lie about taking birth

By complaining about WaPo, et al, you are guilty of "whataboutism" yourself. Is the standard so low that we can't even mention that a non profit(?) organization devoted to releasing leaks of wrongdoing shouldn't be blata

For people paying alimony and child support, you must work or go to jail. And buying cheap stuff goes along with that.

Sounds like taking a single step into the jungle would now be very dangerous.

Oh, I'll get right on that, then! Right after I invent cold fusion and stop sarcasm on the internet! (Besides which, I do not believe anyone can know why secretive agencies in governments assassinate people, if you had been reading...)

There are some things which fighting against is not worth the effort. Concentrating on things which can create significant positive change is much more fruitful.

You can't stop them, so any argument of whether it's right or not is mute.

> Has he, for example, stopped assassinating random foreigners based on often iffy metadata? There is no way you or anyone else besides those within the agencies themselves would be able to qualify on what data and for what reasons the U

Our footprint is big enough without us burying plastic pipes underground. We really shouldn't be expanding the amount of artifacts humankind will leave in this world for those in the future to find and click their tongues at.

It's not cruel to think of other people's lives besides of this broken individual. I'm not suggesting taking the money and putting it in my pocket, just distributing it more rationally, so it can do the most good.

Being punished shouldn't change one's views. One's behavior, though, usually does change. Besides which, I don't hold magic internet points to have very much value. Neither should you (I assume you do, since you imply lo
