  In principle I agree with you but this really requires faith in the justice system to always work. In this case for sure it’s correct, but I wouldn’t be comfortable taking it as a universal rule in our current actual society.

  It’s not that simple, if you are healthier with regular exercise your hunger is also better regulated and your diet will be better.

  It’s both

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨i hate myself and i want to die lol⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s good if your examiners have a few easy things to pick up, makes them feel useful and stops them from finding nonsense just to have something to criticise ;)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨i hate myself and i want to die lol⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  In most places the defense is kind of just a formality. It’s an important part of the ritual and the process, it’s important to present your work, but nobody should be submitting unless they’re definitely going to pass the defense, or else their supervisor has really failed them

  Sadly, he did have a few great songs on albums ~3-5ish.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My friend got hacked and of course microsoft will not even try to help⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Because they just don’t write emails like this, it’s way more likely that some scammer fooled your friend.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My friend got hacked and of course microsoft will not even try to help⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  its from my friend so thats all I need personally

  You think it’s literally impossible that your friend would be fooled into thinking the email was from Microsoft when it wasn’t?

  Yes, the Planck length

  The people doing the guillotining weren’t the state (at first anyway)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This meme is not saying anything like it’s the average price? It’s suggesting that the aesthetic of the tater tots in the jar conjures feelings of those places you can find which are that expensive.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Big change from your last comment

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  20 dollars is about 16 CHF, that’s an extremely normal price for a cocktail. I live just outside Zurich, I’m not exaggerating for comedic or dramatic effect. In a fancy bar in district 1 or niedersorf it’s more like 25 CHF or 30 USD.

  Just a random selection of a few bars in downtown:

  Paris is not nearly one of the most expensive cities. For a huge cultural capital it’s really quite affordable. Try Zurich or San Francisco or Singapore.

  Everybody wins!

  Except the Brits, haha

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨IT'S A TRAP⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  If the train killed only left handed people, you should still be left with infinite train proof right handed people.

  Well, infinite left-hand-killing-train proof people, we don’t know about other trains.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨IT'S A TRAP⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Great explanation, I’d just like to add to this bit because I think it’s fun and important

  And you would continue to kill infinite people every time you reached a new whole number.

  Or any new number at all. Between 0 and 0.0…01 there are already infinite people. And between 0.001 and 0.002.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨IT'S A TRAP⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  with the extra requirement that the probability applies to the whole set I think it checks out, intuitively anyway the expected ~0.0…01 * ∞ is still ∞

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Problem of Writing Poems in the Shape of Deciduous Trees⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I count three os on the bottom, from “common”, “problem”, and “poems”. Seems correct to me?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Crussy⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s this photo, it’s as old as the hills. Lots of people used to have it as a profile pic because of exactly that reaction when it’s a thumbnail. I hunted for a while but couldn’t find the original source, maybe someone else knows or has better search-fu than me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Encouragement⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  because the withdrawal also kills

  Ah, you might be thinking of alcohol. Nicotine withdrawal just makes a very strong craving but there is no physical danger.

  They were joking, they “went from 2-5 bugs per day to ten times that!”

  Well, idk about all men, but you certainly sound like an asshole

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I think the US is the best place he could go, it’s already so bad even he will hardly make it worse, and more factions and intra-right tension might even be a good thing that could come out of it

  Nah punch drunk love is also really good

  I believe that the best for billionaires is to be relieved of the morally corrupting influence of their wealth, and I do wish that for them.
