Only by certain definitions. Regardless, not all speculation is investing.

Sounds more like speculating than investing.

I was about to defend him but after refreshing my memory and reading about the Categorical Imperative I think you’re absolutely right.

because companies pollute much more

This argument drives me crazy. Companies, in this context, are the people. The companies pollute exclusively on behalf of their customers. WE ARE THE COMPANIES.

Both Microsoft and Nvidia are multi-trillion dollar companies.

They’re both horrible but the NY Post is far more tabloid-y than Fox News proper.

It was difficult, but not impossible to get one at launch. Prices on the secondhand market are also not as inflated as we saw with the PS5 launch or even the original Switch.

I managed to get one preordered and felt lucky in doing so but I think I would have managed to get one in person had I not gotten a preorder.

It was nowhere near just as bad as other launches. Not even close.

By 2050 due to climate change? I don’t think so.

There will be disruption, but collapse due primarily to climate change is further away than 20 years.

Why don’t you want us to have weird dinosaurs?

It’s interesting because virtually none of that anti-Irish sentiment exists on the West Coast. Someone of fair complexion here is considered “white”, full stop.

Is all AI-generated content considered slop?

What about retirement? Not continuing to save for retirement during your 20s and 30s is a recipe for absolute disaster for long-term stability. What about saving for a down payment for a house?

“Boomers” don’t like this because it seems incredibly short-sighted.

Umberto Eco’s third tenet of fascism: The cult of action for action’s sake.

“Action being beautiful in itself, it must be taken before, or without, any previous reflection. Thinking is a form of emasculation.”

Hence the desire for SteamOS.

Hate to defend them, but that’s not really an accurate portrayal of what happened in 2024.

Biden should have announced he wasn’t running and allowed the primary process to play out. If he hadn’t, then the DNC should have overridden him. It’s unbelievable that they didn’t anticipate or care that Trump would win again.

We desperately need electoral reform. There’s no issue with moderates existing. The issue is that currently the choice is either moderates or fascists. And the fascists are quite adept at portraying the moderates as authoritarian communists.

That’s OP’s claim.

No it’s not.

OP’s claim is that cults give nicknames. Not that all entities that give nicknames are cults.

But your second statement makes me realize that you likely have an inherent bias that is preventing you from seeing the logic involved.

Of course not. It is your interpretation that having a nickname implies cult membership that is the logical fallacy.

The argument is:

• If CULT, then NICKNAME
• i.e. If X, then Y

Your interpretation seems to be:

• If NICKNAME, then CULT
• i.e. If Y, then X

Which is the logical fallacy of affirming the consequent.

LOGICAL FALLACY - AFFIRMING THE CONSEQUENT.

If X, then Y does not imply if Y, then X.
