and there isn't even a Biblical justification to believe otherwise.

This doesn't feel like a real point to make. You are expecting a 2,000 year old collection of stories to address life before birth? I'm sure at that time many children died during birth and it didn't warrant any special mention because that's just the way it was.

The argument is "thou shall not kill", which objectively IS in the bible. But it takes you to subjective areas like "what is alive" and "when does life begin". Which, yes, is not directly addressed in the bible, but it's lack of inclusion is not the gacha that you seem to think it is. The bible also didn't specifically address whether Blu-Ray or HD DVDs was superior, but why would it have?

OK, you can think it's not legitimate. That doesn't mean there aren't millions of people who do.

I personally don't think there is a difference between the abortion of a viable fetus and infanticide, and I think science is advancing making viability earlier and earlier which makes it pretty troubling where you draw the line

So hypothetically if we had sufficient technology to grow humans entirely in incubators/pods/etc it should be illegal to abort a zygote moments after fertilization? On account of having sufficient technology to make it viable outside of the womb?

I'd read that OF traffic is up as a result of this and a major search query was "what is OF?", so if nothing else this situation will have resulted in a number of new users who had not previously used OF.

And it sounds like wary content creators for the most part wont be leaving OF altogether. Instead many will simply be putting their content on multiple platforms, rather than only OF. If those alternate platforms fail to perform financially on the same level as OF then I'm doubtful a mass exodus will occur.

It's like how Mixer was just "the other platform" compared to twitch/youtube until it eventually got pulled. Those other platforms will need to prove themselves as a legitimate competitor.

TopicIf a Cashier FORGOT to ring in your Item, would you say SOMETHING or NOTHING????
Forceful_Dragon
08/27/21 1:46:56 AM

Unless I'm grocery shopping (where there can be variance due to the weight of items) I will typically know what I expect my total (after tax) to be within a few cents and if my total is ever different from that expectation I'll say something. With groceries I have a ballpark and I'll speak up if I end up an unusual amount over. This might happen if the cashier punches in the wrong item code on a bulk item that is being weighed such as ringing up 5 lbs of peanuts as 5 lbs of cashews which would cost over 3x as much. If my total is a bit low I'll chalk it up to good fortune and say nothing. The very last reason I would ever want to hold up a checkout line at a grocery store would be to ask them to charge me more money.

Can we get some citation on Supreme Court actions in that regard?

Because this is how I'm reading it:

Trump: This is my new immigration policy! No immigrants ever!

Lower Court: No, you can't do that, we need to allow as many as we did before! Injunction!

Supreme Court: Without judging the merits, the lower court is not allowed to injunct in this situation.

.

Biden: This is my new immigration policy! Slightly more immigrants !

Lower Court: No, you can't do that, we need to allow as few as we did before! Injunction!

Supreme: Y'know what i changed my mind. Lower courts are allowed to injunct in this situation.

.

Is it really that clear cut?

Yeah I wasn't crazy about how it ended. It didn't help that the playthrough i was watching (Atrioc) involved a lot of the same choices being selected on accident numerous times, or him not quite connecting some dots quickly enough. I think I might have enjoyed it slightly more playing it myself, but ultimately would have been unsatisfied by the result.

3d Zelda games would be logical not only because they are on par with mario games in terms of having a consistent speedrunning community but because there should be enough surviving information available to piece the stories together.

I imagine with some of the smaller titles the ratio of searching effort to information found makes them not viable.

Where is your router in relation to the Roku?

5G wifi connections are faster, but their range is much more limited and can be more easily affected by walls that wouldn't pose as much problem for standard WiFi.

If it's in the same room then I don't know what to tell you, but that would be my first guess.

I think it's because he is telling a story that might otherwise be lost to time.

It seems like a ton of research goes into each video to collect the chapters of information from either those who were involved first hand or who were close enough to the scene to provide reliable information.

Yeah the actual record progression itself follows a fairly predictable blueprint, but it paints a picture that otherwise would not exist. Even the people the video is about won't have the full picture, only their personal experiences for their contribution of the canvas.

go through the proper channels

Ah, so when a xenophobic wannabe-despot assumes power we should just accept a system where people who are using the "proper channels" have been waiting decades to get in. The "proper channels" get referenced as though they exist when for some time now they effectively haven't. You can't tell someone to just stand in line like everyone else when for many people the line doesn't exist. Or if you are going to hold that position you should simultaneously be outraged by the lack of a functioning line and be willing to forgive illegal immigration until such time that legal immigration becomes a realistic thing.

The movie itself was actually quite good.

All you really need to know going in is that Ryan Reynolds is playing an NPC in an online game (that looks like it would be based on GTA or Just Cause) and he starts to develop self awareness.

Obviously they aren't going to get the gaming elements exactly right, but they got them right enough that as someone who is experienced with games I wasn't cringing the whole movie like I feared I might.

very funny with good action, would watch again.

People might have believed him, but I reject the notion that they believed it because he did a good job of portraying himself as the everyman.

The idea that billionaire donald trump was legitimately believable as an everyman speaks more to how willing people are to deceive themselves than it does to his campaign's presentation of him.
