I need more fiber in my diet :\

Rob Liefeld was a consultant. Fortunately they got someone else for the shoes.

So your refutation of skepticism is “you must be racist, so we should disregard this skepticism”?

You didn’t refute the physics or the claim, only showed that the company super promised they’d fix it if it went wrong.

If your background is in engineering, why didn’t you start from that instead of going into PR mode? It certainly seems more like damage control than alleviating actual concerns.

Never did I say we should suspend our skepticism.

This skepticism seems unfounded

Not explicitly, no, but you certainly implied it.

Why? What makes you say this? This skepticism seems unfounded

Basic physics knowledge? Why would we disregard that based on the word of a corporation whose entire goal is to convince us to buy their products?

Warranties are a great way to build trust, but it’s still based on a promise, not the reality if the physical world. When a resource rich company wants to dominate a market, and push out competition, they will often promise these sorts of things to capture a market.

I won’t say that the technology isnt possible, or that they’re not providing… but going all in all at once based entirely on promises seems premature. And trying to shut down any potential criticism because of it seems suspect at best.

If you want people to trust in this, maybe engage with them instead of trying to shout them down.

Its because they would rather be reactive rather than active. They would rather the ones be on an individual improve themselves with little to no outside assistance, then be punished if they dont. Not as a lesson to that individual, but to others.

Shockingly, it doesn’t really work very well.

What if the art is too good?

It’ll make a lot of rich people lots of money and have no noteworthy aspects.

Still, not a bad movie considering current trends.

Don’t worry, some get fired outright, so that’s technically less hours!

plus russians started proliferating first.

What are you, 7?

Yes, the world is completely defenseless without nukes.

The example is that people mock Linux users with the phrase “How do you know someone uses Linux? Don’t worry, they’ll tell you!”

That says nothing about how Linux users treat others, only how they are used as fodder for people with low self-esteem.

Its a catch all punch down cliche for anything where people are trying to improve themselves or the world around them. See crossfit or Linux as other major examples. Its often that they see someone being passionate about something and mocking them for it.

I mean, if we’re going by the comic, they dont know what living humans look like either.

You are the one making an issue out of it for an entire group of people because of your own perceived optics. You’re not even saying you’re offended. Just that there’s the possibility of causing offense.

Why does theoretical offense clearly not intended by the social media post matter? Why cant people just have fun? Why do you need to drag controversy into celebration?

There are places that refuse to let women go out in public and you’re whining that there’s the possibility that a Twitter post is going to set us back 70 years somehow.

It only matters to people who see controversy everywhere and refuse to enjoy themselves. Let me know when there’s an actual issue where people are actually affected by it, otherwise I will consider you to be little more than one of those people in the middle of times square with a cardboard sign screaming that the world is run by lizards and we should drill out our fillings to keep them from controlling us.

Let people enjoy things.

Pirate the internet! Hack the planet! DDOS the universe!

So when are women allowed back in the kitchen? Is there a point where you dont get a raised eyebrow because of stodgy outdated stereotypes? Is there a point where women can be in the kitchen without it being framed as “bad optics”? How about Black people eating watermelon and fried chicken? Or east Asians who are good at math and science? Indians in medicine and IT? The British and cultural appropriation?

Seeing everything through the eyes of stereotypes only diminishes the world, even if youre ostensibly defending against it.

It felt like the teen drama they mocked in episode 200.

What’s their spaghetti policy?
