“It’s easier to fool people than to convince them that they’ve been fooled”

After someone has been convinced of something, it’s very hard to convince them that they were wrong because now their ego is on the line. And the longer amount of time they’ve believed what Trump says then the harder it will be to convince them that he’s a lying con man, because they’d have to admit to themselves and their community that they were massively conned. And they would to some degree have to even question whether their entire worldview is wrong.

Questioning your own ideas and trying to determine if you’ve been wrong about something takes a lot of openness maturity and emotional intelligence, which are things conservatives statistically are not good at

AI doesn’t require a company. There are already AI created by independent groups

Exactly, the nutrition label isn’t a list of all substances found by chemical analysis, it’s literally just the most important “nutrition” information

A couple of things.

“Drone” doesn’t mean anything about speed. A drone is no faster or slower than than any other weapon with the same propulsion system.

And “shot down” doesn’t mean bullets. Air defense systems generally use extremely fast missiles.

How could step one or two have been anything besides authorities turning the whole store inside out looking for the scissors? The most likely scenario by far obviously was that the employee simply misplaced it

From the history section of that page:

In 1930, Yrigoyen was ousted from power by the military led by José Félix Uriburu. Although Argentina remained among the fifteen richest countries until mid-century,[65] this coup d’état marks the start of the steady economic and social decline that pushed the country back into underdevelopment.

Woah spot on! Today was the day for your highly specific knowledge to shine! Thanks!

There’s nothing about small-time landlords that’s worse than the evil that many people contribute to the world through their jobs like being a banker or manager of a walmart etc. If you have like 2 or 3 properties you rent out then that’s just making your way through the capitalist world we’re all stuck in. The evil of buying up properties to rent out comes when you’re really hogging up like 5 or more properties. IMO, obviously.

iirc they ran out of money and weren’t even able to make it look the way they intended. Like they planned for it to have a 5th face or wanted to do full bodies or something like that but they couldn’t get it done

That’s not how relativity works. Moving quickly relative to what? The planet might be moving slow relative to the local objects where it began its movement, but the local objects at it’s origination point were also moving at some speed, and the group of objects that the local group was in were also moving at some speed, etc etc. And likewise our sun isn’t stationary, it’s also moving relative to everything else, so you could just as easily say the planet is stationary but our sun was moving very quickly toward the stationary planet. There is no thing as an absolute slow/fast when you’re talking about bodies in space. There are tons of ways that a planet sized object could have a fraction-of-c speed relative to our sun.

And there are “rogue planets” out there. They aren’t held into any orbital system, they’re just flying free in empty space. So that part is true as well. It would be very unlikely that some of them AREN’T moving extremely quickly relative to the sun.

CME = coronal mass ejection

I’m aware of that stuff, i just don’t see why it’s relevant to this current event

I’m not up on UK politics, please explain to me why that needs to be pointed out.

Yeah the things that the elders say sound like typical narcissist parent quotes. "[My kids abandoned me because] they said ‘Taking care of him is not our cup of tea.” That’s sounds extremely unlikely. I would guess you didn’t want to hear the very justified exact reasons why they didn’t want you in their life anymore.

I can’t say i agree. But everyone is entitled to their own opinion

The first LED I bought is about 7 years old at this point, so that tracks. I was being hyperbolic when i said “forever”, they aren’t designed to last literally forever, i just meant many many many years

I’ve never had to replace an LED bulb, ever. They last forever if there isn’t a problem with your installation, like poor electrical wiring or poor ventilation

Why so many indoor events then?

They’re games that people CAN play outdoors during summer.

Also, the typical seasons of many of of the “Summer” Olympics events are in the winter.

I don’t understand this question.

More like dickbutt phobia. This is hate against double sided dildo sex

I don’t see how. Summer games are games that can be played outdoors during the summer season. Winter games are games that can be played outdoors during the winter season.
