Ancient wisdom often sounds like common sense now that it is commomly taught. What is some ancient wisdom that we no longer teach because it was wrong?

That was a hell of a journey. Didn't think I would need a hiking stick to read a comment but here we are, my knees are tired.
Help button should be greyed out. It is what it is, because there's nothing to be done. If help was available then it isn't what it will be yet.
And in the same breath they'll claim that sex and gender are the same "You are what is in your pants and only that!"
I believe it's Chad and Stacy

It's inclusive of all territories and still pisses off China.
I've definitely caught myself in the doom attitude. But I've been waiting for 30 years to for enough reinforcements to fight a winning fight against the boomers and their many terrible ideas. Here they are. Every millennial still able to fight, its back the the trenches. Our allies have the energy to push our fight through the doom, millennials and gen z together.
(And a huge thank you to the few boomers fighting along side us.)
Most hotels use reprogrammable RFID cards, not magnetic cards. Hanlon's razor dictates negligence or incompetence be assumed first. I think it's more likely that a hotel employee incorrectly programmed the cards, or just didn't at all before handing them over.
No, no. But they're certainly dead if they're in front of me.

I'm sorry, but isn't this the exact definition of what they themselves call "grooming"?
For anyone thinking about listening to this podcast, it still platforms a lot of her crazy ideas. The following excerpt is from near the end of this article.
March 2023: A new podcast, The Witch Trials of J.K. Rowling, produced by Bari Weiss’s The Free Press and hosted by prominent former Westboro Baptist Church member Megan Phelps-Roper, featured interviews with Rowling. In its fifth episode, Rowling begins discussing the modern trans rights movement, calling it “a cultural movement that was illiberal in its methods and questionable in its ideas” and insisting, “I believe, absolutely, that there is something dangerous about this movement and that it must be challenged.” She then compares the movement to Death Eaters — the villainous supremacists in her books, analogous to Nazis...
Out of curiosity, what's the reason?
Kerbing issue here. I keep reading Walm Art.
For all the left people I know, including myself, The reason we don't want a line drawn is because sometimes special circumstances arise. There may be medical complications in the third trimester that would result in the mother's death and it's not feasible to exhaustively list every scenario that could land her in this situation so it's better to just not a put a limit on it so she doesn't have some bullshit hoop to jump through later while she's dying.
That said, I don't think there's anyone genuinely arguing that people should be allowed to get abortions super late into the pregnancy just for funsies. Third trimester is the logical cut off to me, and most of the people I know agree or want it slightly shorter. We just don't want the law to specify that since it can cause legal complications. It's better that it be considered a medical standard.
Out of curiosity, what would accountability look like to you, in this case. Since she's admitted guilt she's likely to be held at least partially responsible for the crimes of others if it's found her racist claim played a part in the crimes motivation. I assume she's likely to lose her job as well, but we'll have to wait and see i suppose.
I think you've just described an Alzheimer's care center. Buwhahah. Honestly appropriate.
Something like arranging a protest with thousands of participants and marching through a major city like downtown San Francisco? Feels like that's a good start.
I don't feel like he needs to be convicted though. It's already been determined in court that he participated in the insurrection. The law doesn't say he needs to be convicted either, only participate; It's an automatic disqualifier. The criminal conviction would be a separate thing.
This game has Battle pass seasons that rotate new content. They're all free and included with the game of course. It's a good way to keep people coming back to keep your game alive.
Hi friend! This looks like better context to me, so I'll add it here:
Anyone who knowingly pays someone else to request, collect, or deliver absentee ballots could face a Class B felony charge—the same felony class as first-degree manslaughter in Alabama—which carries a prison sentence of up to 20 years. Anyone who is paid to request, collect, complete, prefill, obtain or deliver a voter’s absentee ballot faces a class C felony—the same felony class as looting, third-degree robbery and stalking—punishable by up to ten years in prison
It sounds like this bill prevents people from showing voters how to fill out a ballot as well as picking up sealed ballots to deliver. The sentences look to be more severe than most of Alabama's election laws too. I'm looking forward to seeing how this is handled in court.
There's a lot of Musk hate all over the Internet and irl, not just this site. For good reasons too, but I don't think the issue is that he didn't testify, it's because he wants regulators to be punished for enforcing regulations. That kind of attitude screams "I am above the law, punish these people so no one tries to hold me accountable again." to me.
I'm fine with just the security updates until 2025. I'm sure I'll eventually be able to move on to Linux by then.
Only getting rid of half of them? /s
Hi friend! Without knowing your history, what jobs you've applied for in the past. Try looking at fraud prevention jobs with credit card companies or at banks. Other companies may also have fraud departments. That's a very adjacent field for cybersecurity and would be easy to sell that experience.
An unremorseful felon* (Not to split hairs)
I'd like to add to their comment. A lot of people are coming from very argumentative or abrasive communities, and sometimes their initial messaging will show that. If someone comes off way too hot headed try not to assume that they're going to end up being a troll. They might just be riled up. I've had pretty good success in asking clarifying questions to get people to explain their view rather than just come in swinging.
people shouldn't be out to try to change everybody's opinions on everything all the time?
Why are you trying to change my opinion on changing other people's opinion?
I don't owe it to everyone reading my comments to explain my complete thoughts
Oh, i guess you won't answer that. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Hi Cake! I think I know exactly what you're going through and I'd like to see if I can help you with some ideas. What habits and rituals do you already do? Starting a daily face wash and skin moisturizer helped me a lot. Do you work out at all?
Hey, unless you're just having fun, don't waste your time. This account is a professional troll. Check their comments.
I'm happy to say that I emphatically want better wages for service industry workers. IDC how much food goes up, or how many mega franchises have to close for it. Either better wages, or cause these these super franchises to close so mom and pops and open instead.
I also don't think it's unrealistic to expect businesses to give up a small portion of their infinite growth targets to actually cover their employees needs. Maybe a large departure from the past 50 years, but it's absolutely something most of them can afford.
If a business genuinely can't afford it, then I'd also be okay with my tax money going towards a business analysis for that owner to find a way to make it work. If they still can't, then how long were they really going to be open anyway and what were they really adding to their community?
I agree with your analysis of her apology. I don't think I've ever considered what makes an apology sound genuine. I've always thought of it as a gut instinct. Thank you!
Do you think that the publicity from this statement, would make a second, more genuine attempt at an apology sound like attention seeking? I wonder what kind actions she could actually take to mitigate some of the damage she's caused. That's a rhetorical question, I think.
Just for clarification, try what?
Don't smoke weed kids
Alternatively, and possibly almost as useful, companies will end up training their AI to detect AI content so that they don't train on AI content. Which would in turn would give everyone a tool to filter out AI content. Personally, I really like the apps that poison images when they're uploaded to the internet.
To my knowledge there has never been a federal judge removed in anyway other than impeachment. You would have to take an untested claim to court, prove it, then still to apply that process to remove judges case by case after. Unfortunately, it's not us that gets to decide whether or not something is legal, it's up to the "supreme" Court. I just can't see us convincing 6 of those justices to accept consequences for their and their party's actions. This would be a hell of a legal long shot.
I don't think the protest is for the Israeli government. I feel like it's more trying to target the American government, to try to convince them to stop handing over so many weapons.
Thank you for elaborating. That sounds better reasoned than the first comment. I suspect the original comment you had replied to was lamenting that there were only 2 per state and not proportionate to population. I learned a new word today: Bicameral. I appreciate your reply!
And I just want to get off the train...
They probably have businesses across state lines they've invested in, and want to keep traffic funnelling out of state.
