I personally like them on sandwiches or wraps. They add a nice texture and they taste good. I'll often replace pickles with them, since they are the same thing, just one is pickled.
The more people in a public place, the more likely you are to get argumentative people in the mix. There's going to be someone who throws the first punch.
If the viewpoints are based on blatant falsehoods, then they really shouldn't be presented at all IMO. That is to say, ideally that's how it would be. It doesn't really work like that IRL
Reminds me of "Hysteria" which was effectively just the medical excuse to penalize women for getting "uppity." Nowadays, there's even one that the police have been using recently called "excited delirium" or something, which is what they try to compel coroners to use when they kill someone through unreasonable levels of force when those people fight for their lives.
Effectively be definition, society is altruistic. It can't exist if everyone is perfectly selfish. There needed to be a balancing act between selfishness and selflessness, including some mixture such as "selfish altruism." Help me I help you. That's quite possibly the basis of civilization in general.
That being said, as beings subject to natural selection as well as self preservation and wants, we are generally selfish by nature. Whether we can override that or not depends on both our nature and our nurture. We did so far enough to form communities and eventually civilizations, of course.
Considering that there are swaths of the population to this day that barely consider (If they consider at all) certain other swaths conscious beings, I don't have high hopes for us figuring out if an AI is.
You aren't wrong. I didn't really want to plunge the depths of depravity to really explain or understand it though. The smart fascists and nazis are quite good at manipulating the stupid ones, hence why they work endlessly to misinform and to dismantle education.
They made up TDS because of how reactive they themselves are to the "culture war" nonsense that they're shovel fed every day 25/7. If they can get so worked up about sexy M&Ms and Nascar banning the confederate flag, they have no position to criticize others for pointing out the blatantly terrible stuff their cult leader says and does.
In other words, its effectively the same thing as their insistence that the election was stolen from them. They are so self absorbed and obsessive that they can't imagine its possible without the other side cheating. Considering just about every actual case of voter fraud found was Republicans, it's just more projection.
Moron, imbecile, and dullard came out of eugenics IIRC. Does "lame" have that origin too?
I've heard it used to refer to injured or weakened legs, as well as the creature they're attached to. As in, "the cow was lame because of its injured hoof." I've heard it used to refer to something that is boring or disappointing. "That movie was lame." or "That was lame."
I wouldn't doubt that there is some negative connotation for it though. Terrible people tend to take innocuous words and twist them to suit their schemes.
I remember seeing an article somewhere about this. Effectively, there really bad diminishing returns with these game graphics. You could triple the detail, but there's only so much that can fit on the screen, or in your eyes.
And at the same time, they're bloating many of these AAA games sizes with all manner of garbage too, while simultaneously cutting the corners of what is actually good about them.
That's the rub isn't it. You're not supposed to ever get out of debt. As long as you are in debt, someone's earning interest on it. And that debt can even follow your family long after you are gone.
