Isn’t false paternity a big issue there? Their ban on paternity tests isn’t going to make men more comfortable starting families.

I kinda feel like “low information voters” and “morons” would be synonyms here.

Is there any reason you won’t add an anti microbial additive, like antifreeze or something? We usually add stuff in computer water cooling loops, but I’ll grant that microfin heatsinks are much easier to gum up, but still, not sure there’s a downside.

Tenet might be fun.

Plenty of places do stuffed crust don’t they? We usually get stuffed crust when ordering Papa John’s.

Yessssss

Oh I agree. We’ve definitely overcorrected, and people have forgotten that sex sells, it always has, and always will.

Murdering Tuvix comes to mind. I honestly think she was wrong more often than she was right.

Jerri Ryan’s original silver suit was much more uncomfortable iirc and had a collar that pressed on her carotid artery.

Yeah, I mean I rent out my upstairs which is a legal accessory apartment in an owner occupied dwelling. I’ve had people arguing with me that I’m evil and should throw out my tenants or something or I have no idea what they think is reasonable. Because they are not reasonable, they are just mad and want to blame just like humans are apt to do.

If you like movies, I’ve been enjoying AMC Stubs A-List, been going to more movies with the gf, screen unseen is fun if you have nothing specific you want to see. And we keep costs down by sneaking food in.

The Core

It’s so fucking stupid that it is like a Trainwreck you can’t look away from.

I am the Plex guy in my group of friends and family. I think there’s probably a bit of confirmation bias at play. Being on Lemmy alone puts you into a niche area of Internet already, which is going to make hearing about geeky things like home labs more common.

So yes, they exist.

False dichotomy. Why not both?

Alcohol costs money. Middle class is dead. Probably will see a lot more people making homemade things.

Ah yes. Everything that you disagree with is a straw man.

Yeah those are possibilities. So is being injured by a bear. So is being eaten alive. So is a meteor striking you. Or a guy knifing you when you walked by. Obviously statistical likelihood shapes the amplitude of fear response. The vast majority of men aren’t rapists. And the vast majority of people have no problem passing countless masses of invisible men everyday. And the vast majority of people would run from a bear. Pretending otherwise is just nonsense that doesn’t lend your premise any credibility. All this hypothetical situation illustrates is that people are irrational with their fears and lie about them. Either to others or to themselves.

You think someone SAYING they’d choose the bear would actually choose the bear? Really? If someone actually would do that, I wouldn’t really care about any opinions they had about anything because it sounds like they lack basic survival instincts.

You say I am downplaying rape? I can easily mirror that argument into well, rape vs being eaten alive… Are you arguing that rape and assault victims would be better off dead? A human is much more likely to help you than hurt you, whereas a bear has a nearly zero likelihood of helping you, with the exception of Wojtek, the greatest of all bears.

Ah, there’s the end goal to full self driving! Creating advertisement boxes you have to sit inside and the vehicle doesn’t move if you close your eyes. We’re going full black mirror!

Doubt it. I think you’d ask for help, shelter, contact emergency, avoid exposure, ask for food. You all think about some hypothetical infinity negatives and no benefits like there’s some kinda false dichotomy.

I think you either are lying to yourself or lying to the public.
