Isn’t it supposed to be love rather than just friendship?
I try to contribute to things getting better, sometimes through polite rational skepticism.
Disagreeing with your comment ≠ supporting the opposite side, I support rationality.
Let’s discuss to refine the arguments that make things better sustainably.
Always happy to question our beliefs.
Isn’t it supposed to be love rather than just friendship?
Imagine he tries and fails, like the last who tried.
There are a lot of people and organizations that are just slow to move and don’t really know where to go.
Don’t get them, even if she goes down, the number 2 of this party is much younger so he wasn’t involved in this and he could take her place easily. In my opinion he’s more dangerous, he doesn’t have the stain of the Le Pen name, he’s 29 and he has avoided stupid political mistakes/crimes so far as far as I know. He’s part of the party’s new “impeccable” generation created by Marine Le Pen learning from her father’s mistakes (such as being openly racist in the media).
I’m worried a failing economy could actually motivate them to get into war to divert the people’s attention and stay in power, I think it’s a common political tactic.
I think they also disagree on the choice of axioms, like are they too much or not enough and are they truly independent? See the criticism part of the article.
Depends on the kind of information, but I guess you mean politically sensitive? Then I would say from someone they personally trust, and if the information is contradicting their believes, then it should presented as a different point of view that doesn’t directly try to contradict theirs, rather than the “truth”, to prevent emotional rejection. Give them the bits of information while trying to not trigger blockers and let them make the connections by themselves.
My experience is mostly discussing about my rational skepticism views with religious/superstitious people without creating personal conflicts.
Since you’ve been using Linux for a while, why not buy hardware that you know are more compatible like AMD GPUs? Do you need the latest top range GPUs for your activities?
Yes, since many of them work out-of-the-box today. My PreSonus sound card worked fine when I made my setup four years ago.
It depends on your use case, do you have non-common needs like specialized software that may not work out of the box?
First story kinda reminds of French female rapper Diam’s who got famous in the 2000’ for her songs talking about women emancipation and her positions against right populism. After about 10 years being at the top, she announces retiring because she converted to Islam, married, had a kid and stopped making and listening to music because it is haram, she later moved to live in Saudi Arabia. She also published an autobiography in 2012 and a documentary in 2022 to explain her trajectory where we learn that she had many psychological troubles since her teens and being bitten by her partner at 17, had stays at a psychiatric hospital in 2007, stopped her treatment, attempted suicide and converted to Islam at the end of 2008.
That girl with the fringe.
There was a boy in French high school who seemed a bit impaired, in the sense that he seemed way more childish than people are at this age, so he was often mocked, and I don’t remember him having any brilliant grades. Turns out he went into the top of the top of the French scientific universities (École Polytechnique).
Think Harvard level of prestige (countless top scientists, leaders and CEOs from there), but specialized in science, with way fewer seats, fully paid by the state and an extremely competitive entry exam that the best French students spend 2 to 3 years preparing for after high-school, with the vast majority failing and entering the next schools on the prestige list (still a lot of other prestigious schools under it). I guess he exploded his intellectual potential at this time, when others just implode into depression due to the high pressure.
I was floored when I learned about it and really happy that he took his revenge this way.
They may actually use English if they don’t have the same native language, many have another native language than Hindi. Also if they want to be readable more easily by the rest of the world like I’m doing currently.
Good point, but I think it’s possible Indian and Nigerian, for example, user generated English content, will compete with USA’s. Cultural bubbles may remain, but the internet in some ways also make them more porous.
I think NA+EU+Commonwealth will remain an interesting rich market, so they will make it accessible to them, like the recent Chinese video game Black Myth Wukong, for example. Also India already produces a lot of movies with English version, and there are large parts of high demographic growth countries speaking English in Africa, for example Nigeria, projected to be 500M of people by the end of this century.
Doubt it will keep being the case in a couple of decades given the demography of China, India and Africa once they are all developed enough to produce as much media as the USA today.
Calm down and read again. The person said social disqualification as opposed to judicial conviction, and I’m saying social disqualification being a vague notion could lead to easier abuse by the political power to shut down opposition.
The theory was that any other social disqualifications would be handled at the ballot box.
That theory is now proven to be incorrect, but fixing it takes a constitutional amendment.
That could be a slippery slope too. Imagine a constitutional amendment making someone ineligible because of a “social disqualification” such as sexual orientation.
From top of my head, you can add superman, side plank, bridge, fire hydrant, donkey kick. Maybe you can attach weights to your forearms too for the arm muscles.
