Please explain how you think that article relates to anything that has been said in this thread. No one other than you has tried to draw an equivalence between the holocaust and any other genocide.

Nothing says genocide apologist like insisting every genocide has to be exactly like to Holocaust to count as a genocide.

Thanks! I hate it!

I can excuse murder, but I draw the line at bad metre…

I have never met a chihuahua that was happy, though. Every single one of them are hateful little bastards.

One reason why people have historically had trouble suing tobacco companies is that non-smokers also get lung cancer. While we can say for sure that smoking makes it more likely you will get lung cancer, it’s generally impossible to say any one person’s lung cancer was caused by smoking. This is in contrast to say, someone who injures themselves climbing, where it is definitely 100% on them.

The real answer of course is that you’re paying for it either way. Insured people pay absurdly over the odds to offset the amount of money lost on people who accrue medical debt and can’t afford to pay it off.

I also think insurance shouldn’t cover cancer treatment for smokers. Or diabetes treatment for overweight people. Or broken bones for skiers. Or literally anything for anyone who has ever done anything bad for them. /s

I am a certified Java hater, but you’re allowed to like it. If simple and objected oriented is what you want, I can see the attraction, and it has a good and mature ecosystem.

I also think Java is shit, but if you manage to get a NullPointerException while writing a hello world program, maybe anon is just not cut out for computers?

Few people here think it would’ve solved any problems, however it might have prevented some trans people being dead over the next few years.

That’s the kind of right hand grip that requires years of training.

What constitutes reliable is a matter of opinion I suppose, but the first concrete statement of fact:

0 emissions

Wrong, right out of the gate.

Bacterial flagella are also rotary motors! I did an optional module in biophysics as part of my physics degree and I would recommend it to anyone.

ITT: People who think “liberal” means any one single thing.

The UK was not open and tolerant in the 70s, which is why there was one race riot after another on the 80s.

The UK has definitely gotten worse in the last few years or so, possibly a decade, but before that was a golden period just after terrorism-related Islamophobia had died down and before refugee-related Islamophobia kicked in where the UK was probably the best it ever was on terms of racial attitudes.

You can tell it’s British by the fact that there are two white vans and not a pick-up truck in sight.

Smeeee heeee

It all comes tumbling down, tumbling down, tumbling down. 🎶
