»She went to his place after dinner. That is literally consent.«
Fuck, I guess I’ve consented to sex with all my friends simply by making dinner plans and they seeing them afterwards.

I hope you’re not a lawyer. And I hope you’re not dating anyone.

This is the most vapid comment I have read on this subject and I’ve read hundreds of comments on this subject.

If he’d asked her if she was comfortable from the beginning, the situation would never have occured... assuming he’s a decent person.

I have a simpler solution for you.
If you ever put someone into a scenario in which there is a possibility they may be uncomfortable: JUST ASK THEM
Communication is a 2 way street, and you can’t rely on anyone, in any situation, to tell you everything you need to know unprompted. Even your doctor will probably forget…

»not being sexually aggressive is considered a failure and a turn-off.«
Citation needed. I’m a man and a I found that my perception about this was all wrong when I was young. As I’ve gotten more experience with partners I’ve found that the ones I’ve had relationships with have been very appreciative of a compassionate…

In the absence of friction and heat transfer, the compression and power strokes undo each other. So in an ideal model the power stroke would return the air to the pressure/temperature it was at during the intake stroke. To my mind this means a thermometer inside the cylinder would see: Intake temperature -> compressed…

First, I read nearly all the comments made on this thread, including the ones you made. It appears I was confused and thought your argument was a way more detailed version of the one someone else made about compression strokes, my apologies.
My background is in physics, and my understanding of engines is not very…

OK, where does the work go? If work was done, I, or a physicist, can measure/calculate the end energy state of something and confirm it.
Energy isn’t being created or destroyed when a car engine brakes down a hill - so where is the gravitational potential energy going, if not into the cars kinetic energy? It’s almost…

I don’t think that is quite right. Net result of no work being done on the gas — but in a non-adiabatic system heat can transfer in and out of the gas.
I predict that if you measured the engine temperature of a car that was engine braking with throttle closed from an initially cold start the engine temperature would…

No, he’s right.
You’re correct that the compressed air gets hot — but it takes that heat with it as it enters the exhaust side. It doesn’t have time to transfer much heat to the engine itself — and even if it did, it wouldn’t matter since the engine is designed to work with exhaust that is heated not just by…

OK, but we can at least agree that the dub is painfully bad?
Even if they *are* working with a shit script and visuals?

Yeah, but they considered owning slaves not just a Right, but a responsibility, so maybe we’re not so off base in doubting their judgement.

>“...be an actual functioning democracy that builds coalitions...”
Except we already have those. The GOP is a coalition of Religious voters, Gun rights voters, Libertarians, fiscal conservatives, and authoritarians.
The Dem. party is a coalition of unionists, environmentalists, and social justice types among others.…

>“Tell me what I was wrong about then.”
This line:
>“it’s not really that much of an accomplishment.”
Also this statement:
>“she can’t really compete with the actual best in the world”
See this article from a year ago: http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/someb…

Except that really doesn’t break the ice dude. You’re stuck on the small talk ice flow unless they decide they want to reply with something that can start a real conversation.

>one of the steepest learning curves in the industry.
I’d say in the action game genre. In other genres and games with longer play times it’s not unheard of for there to be much steeper learning curves. I felt like I was learning new things playing Civilization 20 hours in. It was probably hundreds of hours in before I…

Have you ever heard the worldview supporting putting trigger warnings on things and listened to it without interrupting or losing your damn mind?

Just curious.

“Why the fuck not?”
-actual designer response to this question

Having currency of different sizes makes it easier for blind people to use. Just saying.

Really? Is that the only possible interpretation of that statement?
