Listen to yourself

Temporary insanity of 40% of your country?

Maybe retrieved but dead? That would be a failed rescue mission, but a successful recovery mission.

Do you remember when I asked you to elaborate and you evaded? Will the closure of Hormuz be worse than 2008, 2001(9/11), 1999? Hormuz seems like a financial crisis the likes of which we have seen.

Climate change is going to disrupt every ecosystem on the planet.

Neither has the closure of the strait of Hormuz caused a financial crisis of a scale never before seen.

precipitate a financial crisis the likes of which we have never seen.

Can you elaborate on this? And how it is worse than the impending financial crisis due to barely mitigated climate change?

Actually it’s best if we focus on reducing carbon emmitting energy source usage. High oil prices make that easier.

Lol I legit thought

whoa a gel electrophoresis meme, I wonder if anyone recognises the sequence.

if the Bible does say being gay is a sin

It doesn’t say that.

you are basically saying sinning is okay

I think Christians think that everyone sins, if only they believed in a way that people’s sins could be forgiven.

What about Matthew 7:12:

In everything do to others as you would have them do to you

Would you have others tell you to be ashamed of something you can’t change?

I mean I guess you got me, I was being a dick.

I am genuinely interested, but I wasn’t acting like it, I was being needlessly provocative.

I’ve been learning a lot about Christian history but I’m frustrated because it (Christianity) doesn’t really make sense.

So how much child beating is necessary for it to not be hating a child? How much/little is abuse?

Beating children is not an effective way to get them to behave. But people didn’t know that (and still don’t) so they thought/think they need to beat good behaviour into their kids.

Use a bowl ffs

People and cultures have very different ideas about what constitutes abuse of children. Some cultures would consider it abusive not to cut off parts of their children’s genitals.

What’s your relationship with proverbs 13:24?

Yeah it’s really “throwing like a person that hasn’t been taught how to throw”

Mining?

Also, how did you spread your loop? Was it continuous or did you have splices? What gauge was it? Was it just lying on the ground?

He says that the data is not illegal to possess only illegal to sell, so it’s not CSAM. Also you don’t ever actually possess the data, you facilitate its sale though.

The data isn’t accessable. The device is listed for sale (including the HDD with data: I’d guess SSNs because it is not illegal to possess another persons SSN, only to fraudulently use it and to sell it etc). If someone managed to buy it (in one of the brief, sporadic windows we can expect it to be for sale) the artist would still have to physically send the device to them before the data was actually in their possession, but by pressing the button you are participating in the operation of an illegal marketplace.

It’s good art. And it’s a good illustration of why minimum sentencing is a bad idea.

The Iranians have not gotten justice. I don’t need convincing that he was a bad dude, but his death doesn’t cement freedom, and imo the attacks reduce stability and prosperity for Iranians.
