Translation: The Guardian writes stuff I disagree with. Translation: In fact, most newspapers write stuff I disagree with and I only trust my own opin...
The little bastard is still keeping me up at night after 8 months. There's a severe choking hazard for him because of it. So everyone's fine really. I...
Maybe it is exploitation. Or it is activism. Or its about the US court system as illustrated by this tragedy. I find it hard to place it. I remember f...
is that based on what you've seen? Edit: For instance, I thought the Dassey discussion on coercion in the en banc hearing was interesting. That was sp...
The antinatalist argument as I understand it assumes the following: 1. if someone exists he will unavoidably experience bad things (and possibly good ...
That does not equate this: Your original comment wasn't about the US Constitution it was about you being glad about guns and people who weren't glad s...
Translation: born and bred US citizens shouldn't stay in the USA because they disagree with you. By that logic, anyone who is glad about guns should m...
What's meaningless is the above two paragraphs. Again a statement based on nothing. What are you banging on about? Western Europe should introduce fre...
Berlusconi. Enough said. It helps to be specific here. Which European countries are you talking about. The Netherlands has its problems but it's funct...
There's a near infinitude of things to applaud and be happy about. But it really seems that that isn't your cup of tea as you don't spend time writing...
Which wasn't the point ????????????? was making. He's quite clear that your idea of the meaning of life "sit back and don't be upset" is monstrous and...
I think that's unnecessarily judgmental. What's wrong with creating meaning in an inherently meaningless world? It's lovely, in my view, as it is inhe...
I'm not sure how to relate the first three sentences to what I said. What do you mean? As to the counterpoint: what's the use of comparing this world ...
You're, of course, free to adopt Schopenhauer's definition of suffering and equate a lot of things with suffering that have nothing to do with any com...
There's no problem. All Schopenhauer did was lower the bar for what entails suffering to such an extent that everyday life is suddenly filled with it....
Since there's always only half of the world facing the sun, half the world should be enough. Currently the most efficient solar cell converts 44,5% of...
Well, they do have a mission, vision and values statement. You'd hope it's more than just a bit of text. "Do what's right..." Edit: forgot the link: L...
I'm not saying there can't be real science behind LENR but if you can't explain it then there's nothing to talk about. And if after 30 years you still...
It's been a worrying trend for a couple of years now that journalists have become fair game. Branson pulled out of a meeting and the Saudis cancelled ...
So does rossi. Theory and working math, Posty, the rest is just noise. Brouillon energy is another scam who claim there's a Wallstreet conspiracy beca...
Look, Posty, I and others just clarified why Rossi's story is a lie and you forward a link that is especially interested and positive about his e-cat ...
I say "specific" and I get a reference to a compendium. The fact that it features multiple articles reporting positively (and therefore uncritically) ...
I said, I'd be happy to look into specifics, that's not a dismissal. The likelihood it's sensible is very low though, because too many are still pursu...
Rossi isn't even wrong, he's a liar, plain and simple. Rossi claimed fusion by fusing hydrogen with nickel, if you're doing that the reactions are pro...
do your research. What happened to all those buyers of his 1 MW systems in 2011? Oh yeah, never happened. He's a scammer, plain and simple. As stated,...
There isn't evidence. His patent is rejected because it's contrary to the laws of physics. He's given a lot of demonstrations but nothing peer reviewe...
Did Nick literally say he didn't believe you or did he say "you're overreacting" or something similar? In any case, I'd go for entrapment. Next time y...
The only connection I see is having an abortion because the world is going to shit because of climate change and you want to spare a possible child th...
A fusion reaction "out of control" just dies down. It's much safer than fission in operation. Life time of fusion reaction waste is 50 to 100 years - ...
I oppose him because his lies are obvious and go to his character as he is now. If he has done it I think the intervening period would be long enough ...
Nothing possible about it. Just because it isn't in an FBI report doesn't mean it's a clear lie. Both his body language and speech mannerism as well a...
which is complete bullshit if you're not willing to look into the relevant facts. It wasn't to me about whether he sexually assaulted Ford but the obv...
