Unexpected! Thank you for your research :)

What about "old as shit"? I bet that's a lot older

"gaining on"? IDK about british English, but in the states "gaining on" someone means you're approaching them from the rear.

That's a mighty weird way to say she has greatly increased an already-existing lead over Trump.

No she didn't.

Elon Musk is what he always was. He wants you to scapegoat his daughter because that's easy for him. He's a piece of shit entirely on his own, don't blame her for his vile nature.

The objection about a "finite planet" is about capitalism, not currency. A 100% communist system can still have fiat currency and function perfectly well, the two aren't even related.

It's capitalism you don't like, not money.

I sit next to the Linux guy. I can info dump better than he can, he'll move himself into the wolf side of the aisle before we've even taken off.

He said "on day one". That doesn't mean ONLY one day, that means it will start immediately.

The way I see it, they think Trump "won" in 2020 so they don't even have to vote right now. Your work here is done, Christians, take a nice vacation on election day.

600 miles? Call me when they make one small enough to fit in a car

heyooooo

IDK but scroll through the list of instances and I'm sure you'll find a few

To be honest, that's me too! (And I also might be autistic.) But I'm capable of thinking things out verbally, something I do particularly in regard to programming and architecture problems, or figuring out what to say to someone else. So it's a tool that's available to me. I don't think it's available to my dog, but I'll bet he's doing virtual paws.

But they can make plans, they have goal-oriented behavior that drives them to seek out a goal that exists beyond their senses. If I leave the house through the front door without giving my dog his customary distraction, he goes out the back door and around the side because he knows that, if I haven't properly secured the fence, he can get out through the fence to reach me. Nothing about that involves his senses, it's just something he's figured out.

Now, I doubt any part of that involves an internal monologue because they don't use language (even though they can, in fact, understand limited language). If they don't use it themselves, they probably don't figure things out in their heads that way, it simply wouldn't be very efficient. But they certainly possess more complex internal cognition than just "I smell food" or whatever.

ARM looking pretty good too these days

Actually makes me wonder whether they'll try to pressure Trump to quit, for these same reasons.

I mean, he definitely won't quit, but they might try.

Weird, I can see the thumbnail (too small to really appreciate this description) but when I click through there's no image. Did my ad blocker remove it?

(edit: no, turning off the ad blocker didn't help)

There's a lesson here for lurkers looking at this conversation :-) Block people all you want. You don't need a good reason. There's no Socratic Method Fairy who's gonna get mad at you for refusing to engage with bad faith arguments, lying, or abuse. Just click on the username, the block button is near the top and pretty big.

About to block a few accounts here myself.

They're banned now, so somebody definitely found one.

What if you just reported them anyway without waiting for independent committee confirmation that someone is a piece of shit?

Starting to think the reason Elon opposes the "woke mind virus" is not because his daughter is trans, but because he keeps getting owned so fucking hard by her
