  • Very, very, very harsh. Too harsh.

    Would love to see just a single one of the besuited cunts who are polluting our rivers and air get this kind of treatment by their mates in the courts. Never gonna happen tho - this has been a rich man's world for centuries.

  • The condemnation towards him as of late is because of the BBC airing material more sympathetic to Gaza or critical of the genocide Israel is perpetrating, including that Bob Vylan performance.

    To me, that's criticism not worth listening to. Those are good decisions.

    However, it is weird to want to run a well known nonce factory.

  • It's worked for me since the start of the 2022 season so it's fairly reliable, and the back catalogue is worth it for me to pay anyway, but yeah it's not as stress-free as I'd like ๐Ÿ˜‚

  • I'm in the UK where some other old bastards own the rights. I have to VPN from Belgium/Netherlands (fastest locations) to use my F1TV subscription, which I have to pay for via Google Pay because it obfuscates where my bank is located (they'll refuse payment if they know I pay from a UK bank account).

    Look forward to having your F1TV experience absolutely ruined! ๐Ÿ‘Œ I've found that my streaming likes to buffer just before T1 on about 90% of races.

  • I don't believe life has a meaning. I don't believe that anybody has a reason to be here, in any kind of grand scheme of things.

    However, if somebody finds something that they enjoy, they might find they want more of that feeling, and choose to stick around to get it.

    Most living things want to continue living. Whether that's because death is scary and potentially unpleasant in a few different ways, or because they've become attached to something in the world.

    That's why I think some people fight diseases to live a few more years. They might not be planning on anything specific, other than just not dying.

  • Hmm.. both definitions mention one side of the lip, but not which side. We can only hope that the good smirks are all on one side of the mouth, whereas the bad smirks are all on the other side.

  • It's basically karma, but exclusively - in my experience - describes negative outcomes. Similar to "just desserts".

  • That being said, they did just send an unrequested marketing notification to my phone out of the blue... So might have to look elsewhere tbh ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

  • I use Surfshark and have done for years -- but I'm not seeing it recommended really, am I missing something important that discourages people from using it?

  • I've been rooting for Piastri since last season but... What even is this ask? He was like six seconds back when he asked this, and Norris had nothing to do with the penalty. I get being frustrated, even angry, that you lost your P1 to a penalty but... What a long shot lol

    Although, don't ask don't get I guess?

  • I might have the right mental age but nope, regular broadcast! Just too much stuff on the screen! Lines following the cars, nametags on the cars, I don't mind the graphic interface but when it's actually over the racing it's just distracting to me personally!

  • I wish the graphics team would stop putting shit all over the actual racing ๐Ÿ˜‚

  • I honestly still just feel like we're agreeing on the order of things here though. Premoral behaviours develop naturally, become ingrained, and then get written into religions or spirituality to give them even more weight -- sort of like how a lot of myths about evil water spirits supposedly being warnings to children to not play near water cos they'll drown.

    Just to clarify, when I say "written into" I'm not necessarily meaning physically written down. I mean more like "built into".

    I don't think we're disagreeing here, right?

  • Keir eagerly awaiting Trump's load? Farage wiping his arse with the country?

  • Thanks for the response :) it's an interesting question you've raised, and I haven't looked into it enough really.

    I think I've keyed into your phrasing, particularly "precursor", in my answer. If "premoral behaviour" is a step in developing morality, does that make it a precursor?

    What happens between premoral behaviour and morality that develops it? I would have assumed that reward/punishment behaviours between humans socially based on those "premoral" behaviours I described would have led to more nuanced moral systems that would have then been written into religious and spiritual practices.

    What do you think happens between premorality and morality? What role does spirituality or religion play -- does a higher power give us our morals?

  • It doesn't serve us well to murder our own communities. It doesn't serve us well to cause conflict and strife among ourselves when external circumstances are tough enough.

    Living on the steppe or on the savannah would have been extremely tough, and I believe that pragmatism would have naturally lead to a sort of morality -- don't steal from, harm, kill, antagonise other people in your group or you're putting the entire group at risk.

    It doesn't have to be spiritual or religious!

  • Max is an absolute wizard, and it's times like these that he really shows it. Where did that even come from?? Fantastic driving.

  • Ew, weird creepy AI bullshit
