Was learning about the requirements it be a baker in Germany - something like 3 years of school to work at a bakery, 6 years to own one. Crazy.

Sounds like an easy bread pudding :)

The common name comes from the Romans, who ate them as a delicacy.

First paragraph.

I think the better solution is to simply set up a filter for the word “Unsubscribe”.

The bachelor fridges are fine in communities not designed entirely for cars.

There is the doomerism timeline. “Well, it’s too late now, no reason to change anything now!”.

Doomerism is just an evolution of binary thinking.

Pascals wager is more about belief in any effectively omnipotent being who is threatening you. I agree with OP that Rokos basilisk is a form, or at least in the same family, of the wager.

If anything, it strengthens one of my key arguments against the wager - there are an infinite number of potential God’s with different conditions on why they will punish. Picking out any particular god to follow for any reason is simply nonsense.

Not just transphobic: Intersex-phobic and libelous

I would say your simply wrong.

It is not more moral to keep billions of animals alive, and in miserable conditions, solely for the purpose of consuming them, despite any romanticized idea of keeping a completely artificially selected species around.

And also, that there isn’t a world where we completely give up meat eating anyways, and even less of a world where we let them go extinct.

Eggs in a basket

Your mindset is that kids are somehow encapsulated and isolated property and not full individuals who are lacking any real agency, who will grow up as member of the community to the quality that their upbringing allowed them.

Spending money on ensuring children have healthy and safe childhoods is both the easiest moral and easiest social financial decision of all time.

Children cannot decide to be alive, they cannot decide the environment they are in, they cannot decide their parents, or make any reasonable effort to change those circumstances. It doesn’t matter what decisions their parents make or made, we still have a choice to either let those without agency suffer or not.

Beyond that, if you have the moral backbone of some worm, then think about this: children who grow up financially secure result in adults who are simply more productive and less costly than those who are not. To the point where an adult who had that security during childhood will easily contribute far more than it cost for that security. They are already earning their keep.

You will be ASSimulated?

The “free speech absolutist” at it again!

Soybeans are an excellent crop for increasing protein, and one we know well. Malnutrition is a huge issue in Afghanistan - cultural considerations are fundamentally a secondary issue to starving children.

And please, take some time to expand on what filth the US was teaching girls. Let me guess, anything non-religous that teaches them that they have more value beyong their sex and ability to produce children?

And please, describe how the Taliban has successfully reimplemented any liberal, STEM, or non-religous instruction.

Yes, because the study design does not prove causation.

Yeah, this is something many climate advocates say - that it is better to keep the car you have - but I don’t think this is backed up by data at all. It’s very clear that that EVs are able to save more carbon emissions than in a fairly short period than you would save by not continuing to drive an ICE vehicle, with manufacturing included.

If we were going to have a simple rule, replacing all ICE vehicles today with EVs will be far better for the climate than keeping them.

Money. Donate. There isn’t a near term world where money won’t matter in giving you a voice, so you should use it.

That’s also pretty true for people, unfortunately. People are deeply incapable of differentiating fact from fiction.

Limited visibility, limited comprehension, limited attention, and limited risk aversion.
