If we created a change we can un-create it. People who just accept that we are powerless to our past are the architects of our future hell.

I can store map of entire continent offline on my phone, and do not have to ask remote servers for navigation!

The fact that you think anybody would need to have that is ridiculous. And also I can store an entire map of pretty much any place I need to go to and it doesn't require a phone.... Furthermore, maps are only necessary in over bloated cities not designed with facilitating humans as the main objective. Just because that is where most people live nonetheless does not make it any more right.

I am against any large scale collection of data that can be used to take away an individual's privacy or to assist a government/business/person's ability to track someone's location or residence. Its one thing to not be able to do anything about a private business collecting this information on their own volition, but its another to actually aid in its collection yourself. The more you accept and buy into this reality the faster it will accelerate out of control with opposition being not just those who stand to gain from its existence, but from useful idiots who don't understand sunk cost fallacy. The biggest hindrance in the long term happiness of the human species is the inability to reverse change. Even while we can admit a certain change is bad, we can never mitigate further change let alone put the cat back in the bag.

They can pass info regardless. The guards are the way that most prisoners circumvent rules. Regardless, the biggest security risk is created by overpopulation and inadequate resources/ old buildings. And certain rights are more important than the increased risk of illegal activity or violence.

I can't believe parents send their kids to public schools instead of home schooling. The only benefit is childcare and socialization. And those aren't necessarily always benefits either. I mean the amount of time wasted in school is outrageous. And I don't mean wasted as in the hyper ambitious tiger mom way, I mean situations in which you are sitting in a room doing nothing or on your phone or you are taking a test to prove that you know some information.

We just accept this as normal. Nothing is less normal than a bunch of children growing up in a building sitting in chairs all day. In an environment that is strictly controlling with harsh limitations on freedom of speech, no tolerance policies for all sorts of relatively innocuous things, and a forced secularism as to ingrain in students the unimportance of spirituality, physical health, personal liberty, and nature. And lets rid ourselves of this notion this is about education, because it isn't. Every step of school is focused on obedience and preparing them for the next step so they will be able to get a job. It is the perfect way to mold a child into an obedient wage slave.

Never taking the vaccine and I suggest everyone else not to either. It has not gone through any of the rigorous scientific studies that any other required vaccine in modern US history had to go through. And its about time people stopped voting and started taking real action against the blatant disregard for the Constitution and the American people that this Government has. We are the ones should be holding our government accountable, and we have failed because we are too afraid of Violence. And lets be clear when a person breaks a law the police officer uses adequate force to arrest him and if he keeps resisting then it can sometimes be violent force. Its legal and righteous. People wonder why the Jewish people didn't stand and fight against Hitler when they had the chance? They were frogs in boiling water unable to know they were dead before it was too late, and right now the melting pot of our country is getting mighty warm.

Our ancestors fought and died for the rights we have given up because our refusal to go into the streets and fight. Enough talk, go out there and take back what is yours. If you tolerate injustice by refusing to take action you are the same as the one who would be applying that injustice. The only way for us to take back our rights is for everyone to fight, you want to talk about duty with vaccine? You have a duty for your countryman to stand with him to defend the rights you deserve, need, and cherish. Whether you care or not is irrelevant, because you not fighting damns everybody else who does since this War requires every human who calls themselves an American. Get your ass in the streets right now and fight. Not a figure of speech, march down your city and tear down anything and everything that infringes on your rights. And for the people who I know are thinking about the repercussions or social stigma, then fuck you. Our rights are worth every single ounce of pain and suffering a human could be inflicted with. Without Rights our Life is meaningless.

They say one thing and do the other. For example: In many feminist countries being a prostitute is legal but soliciting a prostitute isn't. Its meant to protect prostitutes which I 100% understand, but it is a double standard that stigmatizes the use of prostitution while also putting those who utilize it in real danger. I am not arguing for legalized prostitution, and I do not think anybody has the right to sex, however I think that it is wrong to shame and humiliate somebody for a lack of sexual success.

Love how media consistently ignores male struggles with body dysmorphia even though it is just as big an issue for them as for females. Just look at how many men know take steroids nowadays, and the sad part is most people aren't aware that these people are even taking steroids and think it is naturally achievable body type. I have had conversations with people who are unwilling to believe even the Rock is on something. Lets keep watching the suicide rates climb for the lost boys as we cry about the slightest affront to women. Boys are held responsible for the oppression of women, which they weren't even alive to remember, and inherent none of the privilege or benefits. Male dysmorphia is ignored or supported (i.e. big dick energy), Male on Male rape is a joke (don't drop the soap), Female on Male rape is sex (look up snl Pete Davidson & Rounda Rousey), Female on Male domestic violence doesn't exist (Duluth model), Mens rights is sexist, Male virginity is toxic (incel), Male exclusive groups or friendships are boys clubs, Male perceived sexual failure is to be mocked (cuck), Male feminity is a weakness (soy boy), and a Male's duty is to protect females.

Sick and tired of this world. Hope somebody else has the energy to fight, because I know I don't.

Human beings have been going down this path since the start of civilization. Human beings have been acting like this since we have had hierarchies of power and wealth. For us to solve the climate issue would require us as a species to do a complete 180. At that point we won't even be human anymore, which is why I say it is a lot cause. I assume the criteria for a solution to climate change has always included our survival as a species, but if it doesn't then I agree with the idea that it isn't a lost cause.

Some things are just beyond what Humans will ever understand in my opinion. Consciousness is one of those things. A computer that is able to understand itself completely would be infinitely powerful since its understanding would be recursive over each new understanding state.

From my understanding it is almost certainly a lost cause at this point. I am not a scientist so I do not know for certain, but from what I have read at this stage even if we halt greenhouse gas emissions to zero it still won't be enough to stop the drastic changes to the Earth caused by high CO2 levels. We would have to actively removing CO2 to have any sort of chance at preventing the worse problems associated with Global Warming. Not to mention the amount of other pollutants we have released such as plastic/ microplastic that have been and continue to, disturb the ecosystem of our planet.

The reason I am annoyed about a vaccine mandate is that I take care of my health. I eat healthy, exercise regularly, don't do drink or take any illegal drugs, and have been consistently taking vitamin D everyday for the last 3+ years.

These are all things that everybody should be encouraged to do, but the government has not been putting in almost any concentrated effort to encourage people to do these things at all. Then when Covid starts spreading and mostly killing unhealthy people I should be the one risking my health, taking a vaccine that is way less tested than any other FDA approved vaccine, to help the people who practice unhealthy lives and are the ones most at risk of dying from Covid?

I am 19 years old and had to stay inside for the last 1.5 years for a virus that I am not afraid of and almost certainly would not kill me if I were to contract it. My mental health has been deteriorating for the whole quarantine, years of my youth are being taken away because of something that simply doesn't affect me. Unhealthy old people have screwed my life up and taken years away from me so if they expect me to take a knee to help them then they can go to hell. You lock people in doors for years of their life make them wear masks everywhere in public and now are gonna make me stick a needle up my arm so I can keep my job? Go to hell, I rather die than be yanked around like this to appease people who don't care about me and a government who treats me like shit and insults me. And their is still no timeframe for when this bullshit will be over.

To be fair, the United States is also one of the only countries with birth right citizenship.

already well-established negative effects of high CO2 or VOC concentrations on us

I don't know about this. Research is mixed and the US military has tested supposed mental impairment at higher levels of CO2 in sailors inside submarines and found nothing suggesting CO2 levels can effect noticeable cognitive performance.

Highly disagree if you start investing young and slowly have your portfolio get more and more risk averse over time you should be able to keep majority of your wealth if not grow it depending on your tolerance to risk and when you start withdrawing from your account.

General inflation

Average market growth is higher than the average inflation per year. I trust that investing in the market and holding a percent of your portfolio in Treasury bonds will give you a very good chance of growing or maintaining your savings against inflation and market variance.

Maybe 5-10 years ago, but from my experience you rarely see physical bullying anymore. Its has been cracked upon way to harshly for it to really be the huge issue it once was. I have personally seen a physical form of bullying maybe a few times in my whole entire high school and middle school experience. And I went to 3 different high schools with each one being made up of students from completely different backgrounds, ethnicities, and socioeconomic levels.

Yeah this person I don't think understands what school is like at all. Boys were getting bullied for the exact same stuff that girls were getting bullied for, sometimes even by girls themselves. I can't stand when adults who haven't been to highschool in 20 years try to make vast generalizations about something they have absolutely no clue about.

I was bullied a lot in school and then I quit going to school and started staying home and never felt worse in my life.

BTC can be confiscated too, you don't think Government can take hard drives or get access to cloud data storage.

A store of value protected from (and even a beneficiary of) government mismanagement, central bank mismanagement, corporate mismanagement, etc.

Precious Gold/ Silver is way more adverse to risk than crypto and actually exists as a physical good.

My homes value can be wrecked by a variety of government or central bank policies.

Crypto can be affected by those things also. I see the utility in certain aspects, but I don't understand the gold rush when there a lot better decentralized currencies.

I am not big on cryptocurrency. Look how the price of these "currencies" fluctuate like crazy, because people buy and treat it like an investment. What is the actual current practical utility of cryptocurrency except for buying/selling illegal things online? People are so horny to get in on the next computer/iphone/etc that they forget that new ideas can fail.

It shouldn't take 10 lines an hour should it? I don't have experience reviewing professional code of this size, so please correct me if my assumption is wrong, but that number doesn't seem right.

1. general UI

2. keyboard shortcuts

3. moving around tabs/ windows

4. crashes/ memory issues

I wish I could stomach firefox, but everything about it just absolutely infuriates me. Even with a bunch of addons it is bothersome to run. The issue is that most people spend majority of their time on a PC in a web browser, including myself. Even a 5% worse product is still going to add up to a sizable amount of wasted time/ unneeded frustration. I personally spend hours tinkering with my OS to make it better for me to use, I can't justify using an inferior product in regards to taking a moral stand.

Or at least if I was going to take a moral stand I would start by spending at least 50% more time & money for clothing/ other products not manufactured immorally.

A lot of companies offer pretty great benefits in the office that can help you save a lot of money. Free food, gym, etc. depending on where you work you can be saving a pretty sizable amount of money on just that extra bit of money right there.

It has to be done server side considering reddit api doesn't show how many upvotes or downvotes comments get.

The issue is that pirating games is a lot harder nowadays. Almost all multiplayer games have protections in place that make pirated games impossible to play online with people who legally bought the game, and for single player games updating means redownloading the torrent.

Was a member of the eugenics society of America and was on the board of planned parenthood. Used his power and connections to pull strings for Microsoft and help it become a behemoth that threatens the fair market of desktop operating systems and open source software. The Gates family is a criminal organization hell bent on control.

Depending on how you breathe, your posture, how you sit, if you exercised consistently as a child, etc. your face can look completely different. The greatest example of this is how early humans had significantly larger jaws due to their diet and exercise, while humans today who have almost the exact same facial genes have much smaller jaws.

It matters in that we should not lobby congress to make reddit unban certain subreddits.

However, that does not mean we should not criticize reddit for not standing up for freedom of speech. You can't make your whole website based around "open and honest discussion" then ban subreddits where open and honest discussion was happening, but in ways you didn't like.

Here I am old school just thinking the color of a mans skin should have no more significance than the color of his eyes...

I almost certain neither group on either side agrees with that. The people on the left will argue that color is important and is deeply connected to culture and through subconscious/ institutional racism. To pretend to be blind to race or think of it like any other physical characteristic would be to just put your head in the sand and pretend the world is all lollipops and gumballs.

The right will argue that race plays a factor in physical and mental characteristics through culture and possibly genetics. And that too ignore race entirely would be to go against the stats on things like average SAT, ACT, IQ, Crime Rate, etc.

I personally think that there is truth in a lot of what they both say, and ignoring race will not solve tension or conflict in the US. Its very naive to assume that race is skin deep and can be solved by simply pretending it doesn't exist. If it was that easy we would have solved it by now.
