Then perhaps it’s the offsides rule that needs revision. Do you think the spirit of the rule is captured by foot position analysis? If two players bodies are in alignment and the attackers leg is just beyond the leg of the defender, does th

The on the pitch call was not a red card. VAR told the ref to go to the monitors to review and then the red card was given. If the on the pitch call stood, which was the right call, then we wouldn't be having the conversation. The leve

This is shameful. S3 buckets have not been public by default for many years. You have to make a choice to make them publicly accessible. And to not have the contents encrypted at rest. I just can’t. The lack of respect that some companies h

So I'm going to be that guy. It wasn't until Nixon and his southern strategy that the modern Republican Party became the Party we know today. The coalitions that formed the political parties before then were based more on traditio

I did not know that. Thanks! But it's so rare that people even use honorifics at all these days.

I'm not talking about the 1st amendment. I'm talking about the rhetoric of those on the right in America. They are constantly congratulating themselves on being the champions of freedom. But if someone wants to read a book they do

I am most definitely over generalizing. I could have been more thoughtful in my word choices to narrow the scope of my comments.

I recognize what you’re saying and you’re right. I’m well aware of different approaches and traditions. And I completely agree that ignoring religious writings across history deprives us of understanding the full range of human experience.

You're absolutely right. The thing is that in America, Catholicism isn't the cultural force that it is in other parts of the Americas or in Continental Europe. Protestantism is the brand of Christianity that fights the culture war

Right, which is probably part of why most Evangelicals think Catholics aren't Christian. After I finished my BA in English, I considered going for a MA in Catholic Studies because it offered an opportunity to study Philosophy, Theology

You're right. I'm extremely colored by my Evangelical upbringing and the contemptuous American Evangelical community. That being said, even if we did find Q or something like it, would it change much about our understanding of tha

Many years in the future, after global warming wrecks our world, when humanity rebuilds civilization, they will be glad for folks like this person. Without physical books there will be no way to reconstruct our time and tell our story. Digi

Totally agree. I think with the suburban explosion and rise of the personal automobile we’ve seen individualism trump collectivism. I don’t think we’ll ever see a new deal or social security like initiative in America until the power struct

The public has no stomach for collective action anymore. All for one and one for all? Nah, man, what’s yours is mine and what’s mine is mine.

One does not need to know someone personally to assess their character based on their public actions.

Okay, but why is Aptoide on there[1]? If you're on Android, you've already lost the war with Google. Don't talk to me about custom ROMs. Those are only feasible for the technologically savvy. [1] https://en.aptoide

Yeah, maybe. I don't disagree with the sentiment, but who is prosecuted for the crime? In US law, there is the concept of corporate personhood, but a corporation has yet to be tried for a crime. And even if it were tried and convicted,
