Ive seen a loaded drink cart get a few inches of the floor, though that one was intense enough that even the flight attendants adopted an “oh fuck we’re about to die” face, which is comforting

This remains my #1 complaint every time they send me a “how are we doing” survey
I check, then reply:
Your email app still doesn’t support basic functionality like creating and editing filters, something I had to code for a phone app back in high school
Like, holy shit, the feature exists on desktop why the fuck can’t I have it in the app rreeeeeeeeeeeeeee
But their while point was that they were super-smarties who made shit through communion with God directly, and the devices they made weren’t to be used
They’re an ancient Jewish group yes, but otherwise nothing at all like Hitler’s cabal bullshit and way closer to something like an ancient “secret cult”, made Jewish because it’s a series about the Nazis and them only winning due to Jewish technology (and also losing eventually because of it) is part of the catharsis of the whole thing
I read them a lot more like a group of ancient nerds. Which describes Jewish people pretty well if the friends ive had in the faith are anything to go by
I guess I kinda get your point but it feels so explicitly cathartic to make what IRL we credit to Nazis usually (in media their magic is usually them diving sadistically into what others won’t, for example) that I think it’s the opposite of tone deaf
If this is irrelevant, so is your caterpillar argument.
Wow, you’re completely incapable of basic reasoning. I mean, I’d have assumed as much, but I tried to give you a chance to prove you could think. Ah well, my mistake.
You can’t even define what a person is and you’re accusing me of mental gymnastics?
Those are unrelated, again. You can’t define antidisestablishmentarianism and you’re accusing me of genocide?! Same energy.
Sticking with one you found from a dictionary in the face of three more authoritative sources is odd
Not really, given that it’s the commonly used definition and we’re not talking in a medical setting here. I used it colloquially, not professionally, so I’m grabbing the colloquial definition. You want to use the medical one because it specifies a different species and makes my colloquial use of the word technically incorrect (the best kind), but I refuse to give a fuck
But you can’t explain why…
Oh, look, here’s the relevance: by your own logic if a fetus is a person then a caterpillar is a butterfly. If you cant grasp that then I fear for anyone who has to be around you any time you operate sharp objects.
Ironic, since pro-life people give birth more than pro-choice people.
Yeah, forcing births through regulation does that. It also tends to produce people who vehemently disagree with and hate you. Rightly so, you monster
In one respect, they are similar: a caterpillar is the same species as the butterfly which it becomes, just like fetuses are to humans
Ok so you DO understand, nice
they are significantly different: no human society regards a butterfly’s life as highly as a born human’s
And I was wrong. That’s irrelevant, what value we place on a butterfly relative to us isn’t important at all to me pointing out your logic would mean a caterpillar is a butterfly. All that matters is the way in which they are alike, which you agreed with. This is what mental gymnastics looks like, and it’s obvious to anyone not entrenched like you.
What moral ramifications are there for stepping on a butterfly that wouldn’t be relevant if it was still a caterpillar, and vice versa? If there are none, then it makes no sense to compare the two on that basis.
Nope, my point was simple that calling an earlier stage of a lifeform exactly the same thing as the later stage is silly. You wouldn’t call a caterpillar a butterfly, you wouldn’t call a fetus a person.
I suspected you wouldn’t settle for a non-medical source for something with a precise technical definition
Weird that you’d do that. Looks more like you hunted a specific definition that specifies cross-species requirements so you could try to well ackshully someone. Failed miserably because it’s easy to google what words mean.
if you admit that killing innocent people is wrong
I won’t, because your definition of “people” is faulty and I don’t want to say anything you’ll take wrongly. Its wrong to take a life in most situations, a fetus is not that.
people is wrong and so is erasing personhood from human beings. If nobody here can admit that, then their disrespect means nothing to me.
It pleases me to know bitter idiots like you are, in fact, a dying breed who will be remembered as the stains on history you are 🙂
we are all “clumps of cells.”
Maybe you are, you’re certainly showing the intelligence level of one, but most people are far more than that. They’re lived experiences, personalities, and all the other shit. By your logic a caterpillar is a butterfly, and that’s silly
Third, a parasite is, by definition, a member of a different species than its host
That’s a link to a cancer website, and it doesn’t even load, so the attempt at Cherry-Picking is extremely poor, do better with your fallacies or you’ll bore me
parasite. noun. par·a·site ˈpar-ə-ˌsīt. : an organism living in, with, or on another organism in order to obtain nutrients, grow, or multiply often in a state that directly or indirectly harms the host - well wouldja looky there, doesn’t require a different species at all and, in fact, applies to a fetus too!
Got any more bad points to try and make because you don’t understand basic biology or are you ready to admit youre ignorant and just go learn some shit? Nobody will be mean to you for admitting your ignorance and becoming a better person. Shit, we’d actually probably respect you then, unlike now
How is a fetus not a person?
You can’t actually be so stupid as to not be able to spot the difference between a clump of cells and a born human, so don’t pretend to be.
Things that might become other things are not treated as though they are fundamentally the thing they might become.
Sticking with an extremely broad definition of person is the only way to prevent a slippery slope towards justifying killing people further and further along in development
No, it’s not. Fetus isn’t a person, it requires parasitization of an already existing person to continue existing, it is very much not the same as a born human. The only people who try to equate the two are weirdos like you.
Fine, compared me to Nazis
I didn’t do that either, learn to read usernames
So if they’re not people, then what are they?
Fetus. Could grow into a person if nothing goes wrong and the mother wants it to, could end up as a really heavy period after a week. Welcome to basic biology, since you missed it in school
Says the guy calling me a Nazi because I hate genocide.
I didn’t call you anything, learn to read. Also: not a genocide. Your kind best stop trying to dilute the value of that word by applying it incorrectly
how is killing innocent people healthcare
They’re not killing people, that’s how
You’re reframing the issue
Projection, as usual
Because they found it interesting and wanted to discuss it with people?
Just because it’s low priority doesn’t mean it lacks any interest, we can exist between extremes
Most people would roll their eyes and move on
Quite famously 1% of the community are posters, after all. Who the fuck cares what a normal person would post? OP wanted to
and yet it’s being upvoted because “hooray tribalism” over something as asinine as OS (really kernel) choice.
Lol, it’s being upvoted because most of us recognize the sub and it’s pathetic mod and are laughing at being reminded of them, if the comments are anything to go by
this is a website for posting things

Its a retroactive sequel, yes
Sequel and prequel are relative terms. In the overarching view of the series release order: RDR1 is the prequel and RDR2 is the sequel
In the view of the game story, RDR2 is the prequel and RDR1 is the sequel
I also grew up in that age, but the ADHD means I always forgot I hasn’t gotten new batteries (that and the cost of batteries made my blood pressure skyrocket too)
Personally I want a mouse with both: let me plug it in when I’m playing something less hardcore or using it for browsing so I can charge a removable AA or battery pack or whatever, that way I can have on-demand power/access but also hot-swappable packs for when I WANT wireless
It is until you fucking forget you’re out of batteries and your stupid goddamn mouse just died during s good gaming session when all the shops are closed
Owning rechargeables helps with that though
As someone with annoyingly limited USBs because the front of my PC is annoyingly far from my desk with how my room is:
Just get a USB hub with 4/5 plugs, if you’ve got a c port on your mobo then use that for the hub. Put chargers for your remote accessories on it since it won’t need a ton of power or data throughout
Its just… So much nicer to not worry about your monitor turning off. Even if you don’t worry about it, it’s just nicer to have
I’m 1000% with you on the mouse, I just last week got a new USB hub and want to save others if possible
Friend of mine got spinners on his cheap ass Toyota a couple years back because they all got ditched after the craze ended
If you know where to look you can get good ones for shockingly cheap, and putting them on old beaters or a Prius is fucking hilarious

Me simply saying I’ve personally seen you do something in response to you claiming you haven’t is in now way an argument or an admonishment of shit
Its a statement of fact against your false claim, and your pathetic attempt to spin it against me somehow is reeeeally sad
