- Comment on Can deliberate noise harassment still be a crime if it's done every day from 7:30 AM till 10:30-11:30 PM? 2 days ago:
I don’t really have any experience with situations like this, but I’d be cautious of suggesting such things. Worst case they don’t do anything, and something happens to the neighbor and suddenly you have a lot of trouble waiting for you.
I know here in Germany you can create a log of all the occurrences of your neighbor being loud, end if it is excessive a court can order your neighbor to be silent. If your neighbor then breaks the order, the police will actually do something. Not sure how things work in the UK tho
- Comment on Is it possible to basically not snore at all? 3 days ago:
From what I gather after a quick web search it seems about 40% of the population does not snore, so I guess it is pretty common.
- Comment on what language would be best for me to learn? 2 weeks ago:
French and Italian will come relatively easy for you, the others are quite different. Personally I’d go with Arabic, but that’s just because there are many Arabic speaking people at my job.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
Maybe we should rethink ownership as a concept. Is it really necessary? I feel like it causes a lot of trouble without solving much. Why can’t humans just properly work together in a society that shares resources with those in need?
- Comment on Can you put a ship inside a Klein bottle? 2 weeks ago:
All currently existing Klein bottles.
It seems obvious but I feel like specifying is necessary when talking about abstract things like 4d shapes.
- Comment on Economcial, Billionaires are the biggest threat to the free market 2 weeks ago:
There is no such thing as a free market IMO.
Either you have an unregulated market dominated by big players which isn’t free because of said big players, or you have a heavily regulated market, that gives a fair chance to anyone, but isn’t free at all because of the regulation.
The free market is an illusion, just like the american dream. Which shouldn’t be much of a surprise, seeing as the american dream builds off of the illusion of a free market and fair chances for anyone

- Comment on From a purely political perspective, if you oppose the US tariffs as a US resident, should you buy or avoid buying products subject to tariffs? 1 month ago:
Ah yes, local markets, where nobody is trying to sell anything

The least sexy thing in your post is how miserable your sister seems to be.
Humor is sexy. If a woman won’t date you because you took that photo as a joke, you’re dodging a bullet.
- Comment on Are Nintendo's $80 online game prices a result of tariffs or is Nintendo just using them as an excuse to price gouge as corporations do? 2 months ago:
Nintendo doesn’t really do sales
- Comment on Why do some say they own or have bought something that they technically haven't (e.g. domain names, expensive things, etc.)? 2 months ago:
That’s nice, I guess they found other ways to fund their government.

When you’re renting, you’re always also paying this tax indirectly. Its a tax of having a roof over your head, whether you own it or not*. So it has nothing to do with ownership.
I guess you can argue somewhere in the direction of “tax is theft”, but that’s a different discussion.
- kinda opposing my previous statement, I guess it would be more accurate to say that paying the tax directly to the government is kind of a proof of ownership.
- Comment on Why do some say they own or have bought something that they technically haven't (e.g. domain names, expensive things, etc.)? 2 months ago:
Yeah, owners pay taxes to fund the government. But paying taxes does not mean you don’t own something, as if you were renting.

Well, we do have the words leasing and renting.
The difference between owning games on steam and actually owning a game? When steam shuts down, you suddenly don’t own any games anymore.
When you own a house, you can do whatever you want with it. If you choose to use it without utilities, you can for no extra cost. And payong taxes doesn’t really have anything to do with ownership.if anything taxes are proof of your ownership.

- Comment on Is it better to leave a country, or stay behind to fight for it? And what about the ethics of fleeing instead of staying behind? 2 months ago:
Who gives a flying fuck what others think? Fuck that egotistical bullshit.
Isn’t egoism kinda the opposite of caring about what others think?
