Topic | Homeless camps are now being cleared in california |
pinky0926 08/01/23 8:56:04 AM #19 | famfam posted... there isn't a contradiction at all between not wanting people to be homeless and having access to better care while also not wanting them congregating outside their front doorsteps. No, but since large scale social change isn't happening any time soon that's how these problems get dealt with anyway. Homeless intervention strategies are reactive and exclusionary. It sucks. TonyKojima posted... This is an asinine take. You can absolutely be against homelessness and support better access to the poor while bot wanting them setting up camp on your front yard. Sorry but I wouldn'r want homeless camps in front of my house. And I doubt even the staunchest liberal would as well. Your comment is virtue signaling. See my above comment. Until we start actually change society this is how we will treat homeless people. Just shuffling them around and making it someone else's problem. --- CE's Resident Scotsman. http://i.imgur.com/ILz2ZbV.jpg |

I would say it took me 4 to 6 weeks before I got mine without having it expedited.

pinky0926 07/30/23 12:56:08 PM #3 | ai123 posted... Yeah, I nearly got caught out by that. You need to have at least six months left on your passport now. That's not actually the rule I'm worried about. I have 4 months left but for poland they only ask for 3 months. it's the date of issue thing which is such a bizarre, nonsensical rule I can't even understand why it's a thing. But yeah fuck brexiteers. Hope they're happy swimming in the shit pool they ordered. --- CE's Resident Scotsman. http://i.imgur.com/ILz2ZbV.jpg |
Topic | Ah fuck. My passport may not be valid for my trip to Poland. |
pinky0926 07/30/23 12:51:56 PM #1 | Of course I checked myvisa requirements and passport expiry, it's well within the timeframe I'd be there. But because of fucking BREXIT there's now some weird rule that isn't really advertised anywhere that your passport date of issue has to be within 10 years. My passport's date of issue is march 2013. I'm a few months out. So even though I have a valid EU passport and it's within the expiry date AND I have a return flight booked a few days later, it's likely I'll be turned away at immigration. And no refunds. About a thousand bucks down the drain because of a weird rule like this. I'm going to see if I can get an urgent passport but appointments are slim and im supposed to fly out on thursday. --- CE's Resident Scotsman. http://i.imgur.com/ILz2ZbV.jpg |
Topic | Are fossils the strongest evidence for evolution? |
pinky0926 07/30/23 8:58:56 AM #27 | ** In a roundabout way I think we agree, btw.

Topic | Are fossils the strongest evidence for evolution? |
pinky0926 07/30/23 8:50:12 AM #26 | HeeathLivesOn posted... We're far beyond the point of resorting to 'lack of other explanations' or 'guessing.' Evolution is 100% proven and factual. The only people that think this are the ones with a complete lack of understanding of science. For those unaware, it will always be called "Theory" of Evolution, even if we completely understand every single fact/facet of evolution, and never be called "Law of Evolution." No, you misunderstand my point. I'm not diminishing the theory of evolution. Of course it is true, and of course it works, and no other explanation is even remotely close. I'm talking about the process of scientific discovery being one that fundamentally works like "we've done a bunch of very careful testing and collected a lot of evidence and also weighed up all the other ideas, and this is the explanation that makes the most sense in the most specific way". You can never prove anything in science in the sense that it's status of being true is irrevocable. You can only disprove things, and come up with ideas that hold up to the most amount of scrutiny. When I say "our best guess", I don't mean an armchair quarterback throwaway comment. I mean a collection of hypothesis that have been tested, scrutinised and shown to align with reality, in a way that no others have been able to do. But you always have to be open to the possibility that the theory may be wrong and that new evidence or methods of testing can become available. That's why it's the scientific theory of evolution and not the universal law of evolution. Fundamentally, science has to be falsifiable. --- CE's Resident Scotsman. http://i.imgur.com/ILz2ZbV.jpg |

I just found that I knew the underlying systems and mechanics so well by the time I started ToTK that it felt like I was playing on easy mode the whole time, and hyrule was not quite as captivating.

Hence why I think vegans who miss the taste of meat should go back to eating it. 10000 people could go vegan tomorrow, never buy a steak again, and still not equal a rounding error on the industrys next quarterly report. All theyre doing is depriving themselves of a nice meal for the sake of fake virtue signalling. "Everybody is doing it therefore I can too", right?

Yeah, people (especially on CE and certain other internet bubbles) have an impossible time empathizing with people they disagree with ideologically so they tend to miss what I consider pretty damn obvious signs that a person is having a hard time in life and just demonize them and try to unperson them however they can. It's gotten so much worse over the years too. However much people slam on 4chan/b or old school gamefaqs culture of the past, at least those guys had a sense of irony. These days on message boards like these people go from 0-100 lightning quick as soon as they think someone is outing themselves and really just throw any person and any disagreement straight into the deplorables bin. Yeah I get it, your time is limited and you don't have the energy to "reach common ground" with every person you disagree with.

pinky0926 07/30/23 4:35:59 AM #1 | If you had moral qualms about watching it don't fear. It completely lacks the charm of the original anime, the jokes seem to miss and even just Sanosuke's voice actor just can't quite summon the same intensity the original guy had. Kenshin is somehow less goofy and less threatening at the same time. And I can already tell Saito is going to be a let down. Yahiko and Kaoru are pretty much spot on, though. --- CE's Resident Scotsman. http://i.imgur.com/ILz2ZbV.jpg |
