I had assumed that our technologically competent admins would have checked out the IP address he uses as a guard against that - too naive?

...not going to stick to that contract you signed, then. If you were to put this doctrine into practice, I strongly suspect things would go badly for ...

There's something logically questionable here. Everyone is "the person who is physically at the centre looking out"... So regardless of who you are, y...

The world really needs more white males telling women what to do. Keep up the good work.

Yep. Elsewise, looks a bit like folk noticing their previous privilege and not liking a bit of equity.

:rofl:

Actually....

Ah. That'll be it then.

...as if it had only one use...?

...and then we can go into derangements of epitaphs, where it is the wrongness of the utterance that is what is cogent...

Well, it doesn't show.

:lol:

Do they? I've a tree poppy in a pot outside. It's about 60cm high, so it's not a tree, yet. It will apparently grow to a height of a couple of metres....

:lol:

We can do this? How?

Ah, you're a gem! :up:

Yes! A sensation is not sufficient to establish subject-predicate...

Another test. One case in Perth. Two million people locked down for five days.

Apparently not.

Redacted.

Balls. Garbage should be called garbage. but

Well, no, because I am not. But you have to think that I am. Contemplate that for a bit. The evidence is there that memory is unreliable. All you have...

You left out babysitting. Oh, and showing off. Parents what to be able to say that their child is brighter than other people's children. Hence, standa...

Saying god cannot do what is logically impossible is not putting a restriction on his omnipotence. If it is restricting anything, it is restricting la...

Leave your mind too open and folk will fill it with garbage. What were you expecting on a philosophy forum? Applause? Philosophy is not just whatever ...

It'd be nice if a Mod could take all the god/omnipotence threads and stick 'em together.

...a square circle is not a thing. It's just running words together that one shouldn't; like the little man ho wasn't there. Like flying pink Democrac...

Why start folk off on stuff that is wrong?

Oh, look - Harry answered his own question. Good.

Rubbish. You're making this up as you go along. Memory is reconstructed, and notoriously unreliable. Moreover, your memory is the only thing here that...

You've got no idea. But you keep posting.

Yep. I'm looking for the most reasonable explanation. But you want to believe an unreasonable explanation...

@"fdrake" Here's a link: https://www2.southeastern.edu/Academics/Faculty/jbell/conceptualscheme.pdf This is the salient bit: What detail should we go ...

You don't gotta reply if you don't like it. Again, if you know what makes "fdrake flipped the bird" true, what more do you need in order to understand...

Indeed. As my old professor would ask, if you knew what needed to be the case for it to be true that fdrake flipped the bird, well.... What more would...

In any possible world, a triangle will have three sides. Hence, it is necessarily true that a triangle has three sides. And it follows that there is a...

They are back - again.

Your conviction is not going to convince anyone else. Memory is hopelessly unreliable; especially so when it serves mythology.

The simplest explanation is that you misremember the event.

Ah, the absurdity of 'mercan society. What a stupid idea. At the bottom of each post is an arrow you can click on to reply. Or use "@" from the toolba...

If you have money and want to improve education, go and talk to the local public school Principal. You will find that the path is already clear, but t...

...'cause schools need more bullshit; and of course we havn't learned anytign about how folk learn over the last century.

Of course; it's tautologous. What is contentious is what being better consists in.

Here's some more media lies: The seven countries with better coronavirus responses than Australia @"Roger Gregoire"'s proposal is dangerous bullshit.

Pff. When you understand what is wrong in Plato's Republic, you will understand what is wrong in your proposal.

No, Rousseau, I use words. These are a subset of the scribbles and sounds.

Well, Davidson would simply put it into a proposition: "fdrake flipped the bird" is true iff fdrake flipped the bird. Taking your analogy on board, it...
