Why is your laptop so thin?
Why does a racehorse even need a laptop?

It’s the Daily Mail, the problem was a trans person existing

- Comment on so every shitpost sub is going to be swamped by American politics? please can politics be banned 1 week ago:
It’s not that it’s not fucked up, it that we don’t want to hear about it
- Comment on What a relief! 2 weeks ago:
In America, yes. In the UK, no (although it is getting more common with younger people I find)
I heard a theory that it’s because Americans have $100 bills, whereas the UK only goes up to £50. So counting up in hundreds is more natural in America

To be fair, it’s not like we were saying “one thousand, nine hundred and ninety-nine”

Imagine finding out you are neurotypical :(
Is there anything a person can do if they find out they or their child is neurotypical?

- Comment on Could rising sea levels caused by climate change be thwarted by digging a big hole at the bottom of the sea? 5 weeks ago:
I don’t see any issues as long as you carted away all of the material that you excavated. You could even build up the land to make it taller and harder to flood.
But unless you did it without burning any fossil fuels, then the additional greenhouse gases would cause more ice to melt. And you’d run the risk of fucking up ocean currents and weather systems which, again, could worsen global heating…
On second thoughts, maybe hold off on that plan for now

Thanks a lot for the in-depth answer :)
- Comment on I've been playing 'Ruby's Rebalanced HALO: CE' mod and it is fantastic. 1 month ago:
I really don’t get the hate for the Library. It’s one of my favourite levels in CE. The Flood are a creepy and scary new enemy (on the first play-through at least…) who back you into a corner and attack relentlessly. You’re left fighting for your life with no way to retreat or charge past. It’s one of the rare times in the whole series where you’re forced to play defensively.
It’s also the level that introduces rocket launcher flood, wtf is up with them? So unfair that the enemies get such a good weapon!

Perfect answer, thank you. I was specifically asking about names from a shared language.
- Comment on Why do people call it “woke”? 2 months ago:
I like to remind myself of the quote about anti-Semites (which applies more broadly to fascists in general, and more broadly still to some on the political right): they don’t believe what they are saying because words and truth aren’t important them. As long as the right people are being protected and the wrong people are being hurt, that’s all that’s important.
Never believe that anti‐Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti‐Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert.
From Jean-Paul Sartre, Anti-Semite and Jew (emphasis mine) antilogicalism.com/…/anti-semite-and-jew.pdf

- Comment on DOJ Deletes Study Showing Domestic Terrorists Are Most Often Right Wing 2 months ago:
Even without the science, it’s just so obvious. The core of the left is, “we should care for everyone,” while the core of the right is, “the in-group (racial, financial, religious, whatever) is superior and everyone else is inferior”. Which of those ideologies is going to produce better, kinder people?

£100,000 over 30 years at 4.5% would be £506 a month. That plus the stipulated £25,000 deposit will get you a bungalow or terraced house near me as of about 18 months ago. Rent in my area starts at around £700 for a house outside of town or a single room in town.
So yes, £500 mortgage is possible. Rent being twice the cost of a mortgage for a similar property is fairly common. Banks and landlords being shitheads is guaranteed.
