I haven't bullied you either. I'm calling out your feigned victimhood. You started out disrespectful, I ignored it, you stayed disrespectful by misrep...

I've actually not once insulted you, while your first post to me you called me an idiot. See And after repeated corrections insist on misrepresenting ...

Arrested : human traffickers.

Ahaha, you forgot about the British empire? But for the Brits, you'd be speaking comanche or something.

Game on! :cool:

Yeah, I made an attempt already. Don't know why I bothered.

People suck?

I'm a terrible writer any way, so no loss there.

The deficit is apparent when you keep imputing "communism" on the criticisms I leveled at the current way capitalism is pursued but my comments are st...

I see what the problem is. You don't know what communism is.

You keep saying that but Israel is worst on human rights from the three entities now named. Both in numbers and types of abuses. So you keep defending...

And the framing by Israel is telling as usual: “a surrender to ongoing and aggressive pressure from extreme anti-Israel groups” Being against oppressi...

I didn't raise economics to discuss whether my economic position is correct, merely to point out your representation of my position was false. One poi...

I see you like to read extra things into what I say. Let me clarify. I'm against the current type of capitalism, I think it's implementation, especial...

Well to continue along this tangent. I think pride in the task itself and in each other, if it was a team effort, is great and normal in moderation. B...

Here's Blumenbach, a contemporary of Kant, who came up with the five races but was decidedly anti-racist at the same time :

I have a great plot but no juice to write it.

It's not either capitalism or communism and there's a lot of different "types" of capitalism too. One of the worse developments was that of limited li...

False dichotomy.

This happens. I've been in this situation and it ended up stranding on investment negotiations and it being a very complex market where most players w...

Wild, unfounded assumption that's just necessary to prop up your capitalist ideology. I don't share it nor the idea capitalism is a good system. Anyho...

It's vague idea. You have no clue about its technical or economic viability. You don't even have a proof of concept at this point.

The problem is that at this stage you have an idea but no plan. So if you're serious about it, you need to take it much further than these vague ideas...

nope, I'm near the beach so floods from rivers aren't a risk.

Every market is constrained by laws and regulation. Contract law, environmental laws, labour laws, health and safety standards, taxation, levies, tari...

The number of likes is just proof of your middling opinions that average people share. The less likes as a function over time the better.

I'm just saying I don't see a necessary juxtaposition between conservative values and anti-racism. There are plenty of principled conservatives in fav...

At the risk of arguing for a "true Scotsman", equality is a conservative value.

Sad but true. 36 years ago, when I was 7, my father worked for Shell. When he was again working late and my mom complained I said "he's inventing thin...

Is this really a puzzle? In my view the following is happening, where p is "republican wins" and q "if it's not Reagan who wins, it will be Anderson."...

Here's some info on the economics:

You're always so gracious. I love that about you. Thermal conductivity depends on the composition of rocks. Near volcanoes it will therefore be high b...

I have no idea, you should ask Hanover. He wanted an anti-vomit pill for a business idea.

woossshhh... That was the sound it made as it went over my head. :sweat:

Cool, I wasn't aware as I'm only familiar with the oil and gas industry. That's pretty interesting. You should work out the numbers boethius has asked...

hit me.

I saw a movie by Michael Bay in theaters and thought the same.

How is not vomiting going to give you a business idea?

Good, maybe it will be an end to racism someday then.

As I've pointed out it's silly to call it magma energy for obvious reasons. It's geothermal energy. But it's nice to see how you've not done any resea...

Glad you realise you're an idiot then.

The geothermal claims were vague. References to magma are confusing with respect to geothermal energy. I'll remind everyone of the operating temperatu...

It's called leading by example, raising awareness and having consistent morals. Spending money on Chinese goods is inconsistent with taking human righ...

I personally think the feature is worthless. It had no noticeable positive effect in the past and it doesn't now. Twitter and Facebook have like optio...

I have to admit, I've stopped caring about stars for ages. I'm happy if I manage to solve the question. Currently stuck at 8.6

You need two circles through the existing circle to get another point for the line which comes about from the intersection of the two circles. The fir...

What game were you watching? Both played horribly, at least the Netherlands and Spain gave a karate demonstration in 2012.

That will be Andorra, San Marino or Liechtenstein.

When Trump hit China with tariffs, Netgear moved its production to other Asian countries. But for how long? Probably a safer bet is Asus for any netwo...
