Personally I’d make an exception to my moral stance that work as punishment is slavery, and would prefer to keep him around forcing him to work 70 hours a week, in addition to doing all the other chores required so that he can live - in prison - for the rest of his life.
Maybe we’ll make it 84 hours a week just for good measure, can’t be giving him a day off.
Seems more poetic
Applying selection bias to the reply
Insert inception bwwwwaoww
I dunno, seems pretty rock solid that the majority of people aren’t praying to the Christian god [edit: worldwide, which is my point], seeing as nowhere even close to a majority of people on earth are Christian.
There are all sorts of religions out there, and many who don’t believe in religion at all.
I do agree that all humans are prone to bias, that’s why it’s so important to be aware of it in order to mitigate it.
The OOP making some stupid religious claims, definitely is not aware.
It’s because they missed the point of my comment. That it’s selection bias to claim that everyone is praying to the Christian god, when statistically, that can’t be true, even if they are praying.
The selection bias had nothing to do with selecting the planes that crashed, but selecting planes that crashed in the US, which is a much more Christian country than many other places.
Yes, but absence of evidence isn’t evidence for anything.
It’s wild how many need to find them some scientific method.
I was only pointing out, in my original comment, that I’m sure around the world people pray/say all sorts of things when a plane is crashing, not just the Christian god. But because they’re only focusing on crashes in the US, they are concluding that everyone prays to god (presumably, the Christian one).
This mfer has never heard of selection bias.
What are the bets they’re in the US, and hearing about crashes mostly in the US?
Christianity may be the largest religion in the world, but it’s a plurality, not a majority.
This seems on brand haha

I have been TRIGGERED.
We don’t use that kind of filthy language in this house.
This is a fairly common way to get around on various industrial sites when it’s big enough.
While there are many such people, there are also many workers who are just as exploited by capitalism as you, and are just getting by, or work for a company that does work for oil companies from time to time and you don’t get to choose what projects you’re on.
As with most things, it’s capitalism that needs to end in order to have much chance of mitigating climate catastrophe.
A friend of a friend worked at a plant where someone got fired for riding around on the provided bicycles with no hands and crashed.
Shit like this would also most certainly get you fired at any plant.
As a vegetarian who mostly eats vegan, why is it that I find PETA so annoying?
Without looking into it further, I’m gonna guess the same reason I find a lot of people I agree with on a number of issues so insufferable: holier-than-thou, self-congratulatory, moral crusading.
Just existing and being willing to answer people’s questions genuinely is way more effective. I literally never bring it up, people only find out by happenstance and often ask about it themselves. If they don’t, it’s not that interesting (in my opinion).
Anecdotally, anyway.
I just want to congratulate you on the excellent punny username haha
I hope that’s not your actual name and birth year though, DATENSCHUTZ! (/jk)
Real homies remember that game they had on the palm pilot to learn the handwriting shorthand haha
Seems I’m a bit younger than you, but for some reason this is in my core memories folder.
Does it really cost what Kagi is charging? I would love to see some research on this if people happen to know where to find such articles.
Like, in theory to pay for Kagi or a similar service but it’s just extrotionately expensive.
I pay for other service which are offered for free (like email hosting), but those are reasonably priced.
I know a lot of normies have iPhones because it’s a phone and they see it as a good phone. Fair enough (shitty monopolistic behaviour and Americans’ - yes, this is not a thing in my country - weird ostracisation of green text bubbles notwithstanding)
But Apple is also the brand that made phones a “status symbol”.
I can very easily believe this.
There will be an upsetting number of people that buy this glorified, and much less useful, shoulder bag.
Install a VPN to be slightly safer on public WiFi
Hey guys, remember when these same countries ragged on China for being against freedom of expression?
The sad part is, banning VPNs for most users is extremely doable now.
Source: I have been to China not that long ago and VPNs are mostly cooked now :(
Luckily my state government seems to encourage VPN use (despite the federal government’s horseshittery): https://www.vic.gov.au/using-public-wifi-networks-safely
The people who downvoted are stupid, thanks for sharing :)
