Sure, but those videos would be anti-vaxxers videos, which are directly harmful. The op's comment seemed to be about religous video in general (eg, proselytizing).

Whie I’m non-religious (I'm atheist), I view the sort of generally fantasist religious videos as less directly harmful, because they’re not putting innocent children at risk of serious diseases like measles, or other preventable diseases. People are extremely unlikely to be hospitalized or killed because they’re…

If some NY police or a DA want an easy way to see if he's charging money for medical advice, they can subpoena his bank records, and credit-card payment/processing records. I'm betting he was -or still is. Dude should go to prison for a bit.

Wow, good memory, and of course, the clip was on YouTube. I watched- and loved - that show as a kid, on our *color* 17" TV. Then Rockford Files came on after, I think... ah, the 70s.

Well, the question is whether her lower salary would be offset by the lower cost of living. I could make $50k more, at least, in SF, but that wouldn’t come close to letting me have a 3000 sq ft home on a half acre in a great school district. 

This part of the judgement annoys me:

Well, you could follow the *droves* of other Bay-area refugees and move here to Portland. Median home price is around $430k or so, a fraction of that in SF. And only a bit more than half the median in Seattle. 

Some brokerages do let customers get shares at IPO (yes, via the underwriter, but if it’s at the IPO price, who cares). I’ve gotten a few companies stock at IPO via E*Trade, although it’s been close to a decade since the last time. Not many IPOs ha e really interested me since then. Airbnb could be interesting, though.

So, I'm guessing virtual, interactive holographic porn in three.... two.....one....

You will never sufficiently educate many people - especially younger children - to dramatically lower the rate of pedestrian accidents. People are not getting smarter, but autonomous driving systems are. So while we should strive to educate people, in the long run (not even that long, really), having better tech will…

Came here to post a GIF along the lines of that one. Perfect.

Fortunately, almost no one shares your point of view. 

Yeah, and we should ban glasses - people with bad eyesight should be left to be “culled” from the herd. Ditto for anyone who gets cancer, or has a hernia, or gets any possibly fatal disease.

Bullshit, and publicly-available statistics prove you are wrong about Los Angeles. Also, “complications from vaccines” are rare, and decreasing over time - so you’re wrong there too. Finally, the fact that you, one single person, didn’t die or go deaf or have brain damage, has absolutely no bearing on the FACT that…

This is the key quote from one of the anti-vaxxers: “... There’s nothing that’s going to change my mind...”

I know exactly what it was a reference to. The point is trying to use an old nickname, or a variation on a name, or turning a name into another word, all of it is part of the immature juvenile "tactics" by trolls who have absolutely nothing to rebut what the person is saying. And they sound all of 12 years old, and…

“Occassional Cortex is irrelevant..”

First - nobody claimed there were 21 trillion dollars in subsidies. You and another poster just made that up.

On the other hand, it’s about the same price as a Volvo XC90 T6, which has a much nicer interior and a bit more torque & ponies (but probably less reliable than the Honda/Acura).

In addition to the Lexus and Audi, the MDX (especially as you cross into the mid-$50k range) is also competing with the Volvo XC90. And at the base trim, it’s close to the Mazda CC9's top “Signature” trim, which has a very nice interior (w/leather, real wood, touchscreen, etc).
