I find myself becoming jaded to the snark that is seemingly always present when people pontificate about global warming.

This is what the bat suit must be made of * c *

I agree it’d be great to have a candidate in the future make space a priority, but I don’t believe that the times are right at this moment. The real tragedy would be seeing what damage a presidential race would do to all things space, with regards to public opinion; it’d have nothing to do with science at all and be…

Explain yourself, I’m interested.

The slippery slope only qualifies as a fallacy if there is no evidence to support the hypothetical outcome; qualifying that the precedent set by affirming the FBI’s wishes would open previously unavailable avenues for the scenario they mentioned to take place prevents this argument from being logically invalid.

Slippery…

I’m playing now, so there may be spoilers in a few details I mention here but I’ll try to be careful.

I thought the pigment change around her eyes, at first was just a neat way to shield against glare while sniping. After a little bit more time with her, I am thinking the change around her eyes is denoting her…

That bit with the drool at the end was good stuff; star for you!

Oh hey, I went a whole 4 minutes of comment reading before running into a terribly executed parody of “First they came...” being used to promote the slippery slope fallacy. Better than I expected.

No, that would be the noxious fumes filling your lungs; terrible opinions filling your head. But hey, I’ll give you a star for having used such wonderfully edgy lines as “I wrote a paper...” and “...reflect several aspects of fascism” unironically after lamenting smokers’ loneliness.

Joking aside, if you do smoke I…

Does it make me a cynic to disdain release dates that are 1~2 months+ away?

I’m sure Comey isn’t a terrible person, he’s behaving and expressing himself in exactly the way I would imagine someone in his line of work and position would.

Actually, “clown” is such appropriate word choice. Where a clown thinks about making people laugh because that’s what they do, so too is Comey thinking…

Is my skepticism just due to jaded cynicism or is anyone else instantly suspicious of anything coming from China’s National Bureau of Statistics?

I think the important message behind what Piers is saying here can be boiled down into this quote from 1901, said by Friedrich Nietzsche:.

I would need more context before I summoned up the snark the author did in the article. If the FBI vs Apple discussion has proven anything it’s that we, as a people, globally, let alone nationally don’t know diddly about encryption, therefore a natural effect of an awakening to that fact would certainly mean a hike in…

How pig-headed, gobbling up space on a plane like that.

I made sanctuary into a rehabilitation site (In its worst light it’s more like a prison camp but shhhh about that part). Marcy Long’s kid(s?) died and so I can’t be that mad at her when I think too hard about it just like how Sheffield doesn’t mean to be annoying, he’s just an addict clinging to sobriety by talking…

You make a good point, those laws and regulations that serve only to tie up the transition into broader options for cities have to go. People who simply use cars as a means to an end - a tool, I feel would be very welcoming of better tools and means. I don’t believe auto-enthusiasts wake up thinking “Boy, I can’t wait…

I don’t know if we can trust the comments with such a difficult task; it’s ver complex.

I agree that her writing, at the very least, does draw attention to how harmful the “norm” is. I just see the best opposition of a thing is one that respects the issues on both sides of that thing. I use the word disdain to describe what I see as her disregarding issues on the side of drivers, let alone…

Hey Matt, as a fellow Matt, I have a request for an article. I’ve always been curious about robot feet; why are robot feet that emulate human feet uncommon?
