So the argument of "PS3/4/5 has no games" is it that they truly have no games to play, or they have no games exclusive to the PS5, so the PS5 isn't as essential of a purchase vs just getting a gaming PC?It's not an argument so much as a meme, though one of the lyrics to that In The End parody song is "In a console war, exclusives are key / watch them fly by as they port to PC" --- https://imgur.com/gallery/dXDmJHw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75GL-BYZFfY |

Does this show have any hidden codes or anything, like gravity falls? Seems like the kind of show that would.Not sure what you mean by hidden codes but the episodes start at 0 because numbered lists begin at 0 in programming languages. Mr. Robot has no ARG elements or any significant meta-textual secrets or anything like that.

TC is obviously a troll.ITP: There has never been a former flat Earther, and presumably by extension any former cult member, or other type of former indoctrination victim or disordered thinker. You're just dogmatically wrong about this. There plainly is value in understanding flawed thinking and there are positive results to be gained from studying it. I have no idea @post 53 why you're talking like scholars and flat earthers had some Great War in the recent past that led to a final separation. It's odd. Flat earthers are made and unmade perhaps every day. EDIT: Basically, Doe apparently got upset with me for saying Flat Earthers have no actual evidence. And, yes, I understand, technically that is wrong.At no point did I get upset with you for saying flat Earthers have no actual evidence. I responded to your posts claiming evidence isn't evidence because you choose a different definition of evidence. You seem to be conceding that point, so it's water under the bridge. However, PRACTICALLY... They do not. So, like... What's the point in arguing?That you responded to every one of my posts surely shows you were equally as invested as I was in the definition of evidence, so I don't get the pivot to "why do you CARE so much". Like, you care as much as I do in some form or another, clearly. --- https://imgur.com/gallery/dXDmJHw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75GL-BYZFfY |

Again, semantics.Yes? Like, you're the one complaining I called something evidence when any other reader understands what I said and understands why visual information is a form of evidence (and that "evidence" is not a synonym for incontrovertible proof of another thing). So yes, we're apparently having an argument about semantics. Literally why are you arguing so hard to make sense of the Flat Earther movement?As a matter of fact, it is valuable to be able to understand the perspectives of other people that lead them to make faulty conclusions, for a variety of reasons. EDIT: Basically, I can't imagine why you'd be arguing with me so hard about this if you didn't have some kind of stake, so I'm asking what that is, exactly?You've engaged with me equally as much as I've engaged with you about this. If you think there's no value in understanding how Flat Earthers make the mistakes they do or get tricked or indoctrinated, then why did you post in this topic at all? --- https://imgur.com/gallery/dXDmJHw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75GL-BYZFfY |

"Evidence" means "the available body of facts."It is literally a fact that in most places humans live on Earth, attempting to observe the limits of the Earth makes it appear flat, or at least not round. You realize when a prosecutor introduces evidence at a trial, the trial doesn't suddenly end with a guilty verdict? I am aghast you're telling me I'M arguing semantics when you're trying to insist nobody uses the word 'evidence' the way that everybody uses the word 'evidence'. You've never read a news article that proposes to "present the evidence of either claim" or anything to that effect?

It's not, if said visual evidence can literally change based simply on perception. I feel like this shouldn't even need to be said.Holy shit, nobody claiming visual evidence is infallible. However, "evidence" as a concept CAN be fallible. Evidence can be misinterpreted, be used to move to the wrong conclusion, weighed too heavily against other evidence, etc. There are very few types of evidence imaginable that are self-evidently infallible. That's really solely for the realm of mathematical proofs. --- https://imgur.com/gallery/dXDmJHw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75GL-BYZFfY |

Doe 06/21/24 12:02:05 PM #9 | It can also be a liability thing, I believe. But in general in business you never want to do something that might give someone the impression you've "been caught" or that there was explicitly a deficiency in your company's way of handling things or something that you should've already caught.
For the lady you removed an item from, IDK. I do think you had no need to apologize (I think it's good to not say 'sorry' for things you aren't actually literally at fault about, not just in business but in a more general social context), but it's nonsensical to go to your manager about. I can only guess maybe they thought you had an indignant tone, like you were being bothered? But I don't want to blame you or assume it's not just some asshole customer. --- https://imgur.com/gallery/dXDmJHw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75GL-BYZFfY |

Then online I saw stuff about EQ profiles and tried a highly recommended setup on Reddit to make it closer to that Harman line, and I thought it sounded significantly worse... the main difference I noticed was that vocals no longer 'popped' not just as being quieter, but the "sound stage" of the headphones seemed reduced...

You can be a blue voter and not vote THIS election.

Well, if they get what they want in Trump, I hope the best for them.According to the article, lots of WH outreach to these communities has been to say the obvious like this (Trump is bad) without offering anything in the way of policy, which has made them feel taken for a ride. The Biden WH has failed to convince that they'll actually improve anything for them instead of just delaying what the Republicans will do for another 4 years. This turns out to be really un-inspirational voter outreach, even if it technically rational to vote against the worst guys. --- https://imgur.com/gallery/dXDmJHw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75GL-BYZFfY |
