Almost all cultivated food is genetically modified by human agricultural activities over the course of centuries if not millennia. The only thing that's really changed now is the pace of modification.

For what it's worth, from what I remember most federal judges are either in debt or have very little savings, because why wouldn't they? Barring a situation where they screw the pooch and get impeached/convicted, which is extraordinarily rare, they have guaranteed job security for life. They don't have to live paycheck by paycheck by any means.

I liked when he introduced Clark to Bruce:

Lex Luthor: Boys! Mm, Bruce Wayne meets Clark Kent. Ah, I love it! I love bringing people together! How are we?

[shakes Bruce's hand]

Bruce Wayne: Lex.

Lex Luthor: Hello. Good.

[turns to Clark]

Lex Luthor: Hi, hello.

[shakes Clark's hand]

Lex Luthor: Lex. It is a pleasure... Ow! Wow, that is a good grip! You should not pick a fight with this person.

But Lex overall just reminded me of Mark Zuckerberg.

The bolded line is decent, but the line about Clark Kent and Bruce Wayne meeting was nonsensical except as an extremly clumsy and lazy nod to the audience that it invalidates it as they're in the same conversation.

That'd be like, me making a comment about Elon Musk meeting a random Chicago Tribune reporter. Yeah, so?

lol yeah, why the fuck is Clark even at Lex's party for that matter, he's basically a nobody. I saw it in theaters and can't remember the details.

He was the scrub reporter sent to just be there for a celebrity hobnobbery.

The Disney Star Wars films have all been at least good, with Force Awakens and Last Jedi being fantastic and better than anything that came before in the series other than Empire. Also, if A New Hope came out today, the same toxic fans would bitch about Luke being a Gary Stu.

A) We know literally nothing about the show other than the base premise, so dumb to get upset about it. Or to get overly excited about it.
B) It's alternative historical fiction. Portraying something does not mean you support something. Does Man in the High Castle support fascism as a political ideology? Of fucking course not.

Well, I used to box semi-professionally, so I'd feel pretty confident being able to beat up a bigger and stronger person that hasn't had significant fight training.

Being able to know how to throw an actually good punch is a skill that the vast majority of people don't have, even if the person in question is very strong.

If he was an experienced fighter though, I'd assume that him being twice as strong would mean he was at least several weight classes above me, and with greater speed he'd have to be elite to have that speed advantage over a smaller me, so I'd be boned.

Their main podcast is one of my favorites, so I'm subscribed to them for essentially that plus their occasional founder stuff (including literally anything that Joel's in). Most of their scripted stuff stinks and their game show is just really bad. Mostly transitioned into following their Funhaus channel for gameplay stuff.

Why is it called a paradox when it's clearly not?

Same reason why most people refuse to believe the Monty Hall problem, wherein if you have a choice of three options, one of the options is removed, and statistically you are absolutely better off changing your choice.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monty_Hall_problem

It just doesn't sound right.

This just makes me rage.

Its 50-50. The odds of you being correct dont just magically lock in when you make your choice. It really doesnt fucking matter that it was 1/3 when you first picked. As soon as one choice is revealed to be a losing one, there is a 50-50 chance befween the remaining two choices.

The grouping of the revealed and the unchosen as if the revealed choice could still somehow magically turn out to be correct is absolutely senseless.

That's a nice opinion, but it's a wrong opinion. Statistically speaking, you are better off changing your pick. Simulations have repeatedly shown this.

Or, to put it different. Imagine you have a hundred doors to choose from, and you choose one. Then, 98 are removed and you're given a choice to change your pick. Do you think you really got the 1% shot right on your first try, or would you feel more comfortable with the other door being the correct one?

Same principal.

Aside from beaches, barbecue, and college football, the south has been shit for over 150 years.

NJ beaches are better than anything the south has to offer

I couldn't say, but I would admit that the south has less shit weather cold temperature-wise and therefore theoretically have a lot more of a time variance where enjoyable beach time is possible.

That all being said, I personally prefer beaches in western Michigan to be the best.
