I've been waiting for my third party app to break. Boost finally stopped working an hour ago so I signed up here.

Talking about surface temperature is pretty misleading.

That hasn't been my experience.

It's still a very mixed reaction if you say something contrary to the dominant opinion.

And still just as likely to get strawmanned if you disagree with an aspect, but still overall agree with the conclusion.

It absolutely does make sense because it is discriminatory. He's absolutely correct.

The mistake that you are making, is thinking that all forms of discrimination are bad. They're not. Most are in fact good. We just don't tend to call them discrimination.

That honestly should be the law. If you can't accept it without documentation, you should be required to return it. Of course you can also report it, but that's separate.

They closer they walk the line, the longer they can drag this out before they're replaced. That means more subscribers move on to other active communities.

I agree. It's absolutely absurd that would say something along the lines of "Fuck, I got r*ped, what do I do?"

That article you're talking about isn't about brave as a browser. It was a out the brave search engine.

Nope, not at all. You completely misunderstood my point.

I'm not saying the ground suddenly got hotter and everything else stayed the same. In this case, it's just a metric that's quoted because it has a misleading high value especially by people who are just scrolling through.

It's click bait.

Whether or not it's tolerance isn't directly important.

The mistake that people make is assuming that tolerance is inherently good. It is to a certain degree, but there are many things that you do not want to tolerate. That's where we want to be.

However, many people think of themselves as tolerant and find it difficult to make that conceptual realization.

It's not as of right now, but I wouldn't say downvotes are the issue. The reality is that downvote = disagree no matter what rule you create that says it doesn't.

What I'm talking about are the insults, mischaracterizations, and general non productive discussion on comments that others don't agree with.

This was exactly the problem that Charles Murray pointed out in the bell curve. We're rapidly increasing the complexity of the available jobs (and the successful people can output 1000-1,000,000 times more than simple labor in the world of computers). It's the same concept as the industrial revolution, but to a greater degree.

The problem is that we're taking away the vast majority of the simple jobs. Even working at a fast food place isn't simple.

That alienates a good chunk of the population from being able to perform useful work.

Many users there don't seem to be capable of differentiating those two things.

It seems to me to be worse manners to just leave your snot as leaking out or making you sniffle. Better to get it over with rather than make people listen to that for minutes to hours.

That's a paradox. You cannot tolerate everything. That's why there's no such thing as not being bigoted. It's literally impossible to tolerate everything.

You just have to pick what things you're not going to tolerate. Now if only we could always agree on what that is.

We've had that experience in years past, but ended up picking several items that were the lowest price in 1 to 6 months.

There weren't any crazy discounts, but it was better than nothing.

I wouldn't say that at all. Chernobyl was so much worse than this. It wasn't a single first line supervisor who asked one worker to do something who said no at first.

They'd asked multiple nuclear plants to perform that test. Been told that it was not safe to perform multiple times. They finally got an upper management individual at one plant to agree to it. Then they had challenges completing the test and due to plant characteristics that were not apparent to the operators (as well as violating other procedures) the event occurred.

The premise of chernobyl is a series of systemic failures of barriers. Not an addition of a single step not specified in a maintenence procedure.

That's built in to android now with Rcs which uses the exact same encryption as signal.

And funny enough, apple decided not to support it so now apple users are the ones who force it to revert to MMS.

That doesn't make it a bullshit test. It makes it a different test. IMO range is more important than efficiency.

And if DCFC stations were everywhere, then I'd agree that would be more of a factor. But given that a 15 mile difference in range can be the difference between 100 miles between stops and 200 miles between stops, I'd still say range is more important than charge speed.

Doubly so since the highest range EVs are also among the highest charging speed EVs.

As I stated, DCFC stations aren't available everywhere. They're often 100+ miles apart. So it doesn't matter if you can make it 185 miles between subsequent charge stops with a comfortable buffer if your only DCFC options are at 100 miles at 200 miles. You're stuck stopping at the 100 mile stop.

It is a paradox because there's no objective, universal definition of tolerance. It's literally impossible to be tolerant of everything. So you're left with different forms of what intolerance people deem acceptable.

People make the same mistake about bigotry. It's impossible not to be a bigot. You just don't want to be the wrong kind of bigot. Now if only we could all agree on exactly what that was.

So it looks like most users aren't seeing a handicap yet, but may start to see one in January if that block list size cap/updating the list is an issue.

Nah, if Google maps says it takes 10 hours, then it takes 10 hours with stops unless you're in the bottom 10% of traffic (such as if you're a truck towing a trailer).

If you're like most people going 5 to 10 mph over, then you'll beat Google maps time by about 15 minutes per 2 hours of drive time without stopping.

What aspects are handicapped in chromium?

Around town DCFC are irrelevant for most EV owners since they chsgre at some.

I don't know if that's an honest mistake or if you're just making up things since there are no rest stops with DCFC. It's against the law to do that on public rest stops.

I'm not seeing how that proves the transaction is clean.

If I put money in a bank account, then transfer it to another account, then back to the same one, the transfer back doesn't obfuscate anything. If it's not caught on the initial deposit in the banking system, then I'm not seeing how any subsequent transactions matter.

I liked bestof at first. I'm not sure if it got more transparent or I just started to see through it easier but it stopped becoming the best of reddit. There was some good items, but it ended up being far too many long winded comments that were half correct but agreed with the dominant view.

I understand that's the law as it currently is. I'm saying that it shouldn't result in any legal ramifications.

It seems they weren't well setup, if they were then he wouldn't have gotten to the point that he wired money before filling the required paperwork out.

I disagree with that. It's human nature downvote something you disagree with when given an option.

It's best to just acknowledge it and accept it to some degree while still encouraging users to upvote well written disagreements.

But don't pretend that it shouldn't also be used as a disagree button frequently. The two way voting system is a large contributor to what made reddit great. It has some drawbacks, but don't expect that to change. It's like asking lead to not be dense.

It's more that do far I haven't seen anything wrong with the browser itself.

If you really want to test it, then you've got to post an opinion that disagrees with both of the two main dominant opinions and is a bit more complex rather than just staunchly for/against something.

So say that you're against abortion, except advocate strongly for it in the event of rape or mental disabilities. And say that you're not against gay people, but against same sex marriage and gay people should just be celibate their whole lives.

And if you really want to ruffle some feather, say that you don't think pedophiles should be put in jail. Only child molesters/rapists should be jailed.

And even within imax, there's differing qualities of the projector. It's all quite complicated and seems to be intentionally obfuscated.

You mean the post about the brave search engine?

The issue is energy density. There's a reason why boat tanks are ~6 times larger than a cars gas tank. That's why they're so expensive (plus batteries are much heavier).

The Bolt EV or the Leaf are just that.

And generally more availability of cars which reduces the markup they can charge.

As well as people still only being able to afford the same monthly payment, but higher interest rates.

Then you shouldn't let the transaction occur in the first place.

Sure, that sounds like it's best addressed with enforcement of the requirements before keeping the money.

I disagree with that analogy. There's a very noticable difference between how the cars goes (and sounds) among those fuel types. They may all get you to your destination, but the experience is moderately different.

And maybe that actually makes it a good analogy. I'm not really sure.

That's been true, but I wouldn't expect the year over year differences of phones to continue indefinitely.

Advances were very rapid when it was a nascent industry, but it's already slowed down significantly. It will slow more by 2027.

The person I responded to said discriminatory didn't even make sense. I pointed out why it does make sense, because it is discriminatory and that's perfectly fine.

Yes, that's true and not in contrast with what I've said.
