If I’m 50+ and my eyes are out of focus can I try rubbing them hard to fix the shape? Be a lot cheaper than laser.

I’ve found that people speaking English as a second language are usually better than the average native speaker when it comes to grammar. Something like ‘your/you’re’ is an easily learned rule. It’s the native English speakers who don’t know it only through stupidity. They’ve been taught, but they don’t care and just spew words that ‘sound right’ without thinking. And this mentality usually mirrors their discourse in terms of thoughts, logic and morality.

Yeah, but not all of it. It leaves an inch or two down in the motor/ filter area.

Well if you can’t manage to use the correct words, it does bring you’re credibility into question.

Of course. But sometimes it’s actually good to introspect a bit about it. People are often upset or stressed and fill in a reason to justify it. Understanding that can help deal with the emotion. Not just bury it; but work through it. Sometimes one can figure out the actual stressor isn’t what they think it is, and they can remove the real stressor.

Any offer that relies on a mortgage will have a clause indicating it is conditional on the mortgage coming through. A buyer would be insane not to do this unless they have the cash anyway. Even if it is a preapproved mortgage, there’s always a chance that something can go wrong.

And of course, it’s dynamic as tides and waves change it. And how does wet sand due to rain play into it - we’re now having to differentiate based on salinity of water.

- Comment on The speed of light 5 weeks ago:
A) from a photon’s perspective extrapolating relativity, zero time passes from when it is created to when it is absorbed. Essentially the two points are connected and the interaction is pure causality. This is part of the quantum nature of matter and can be understood as the manifestation of the probability of the two points interacting. An outside observer in three dimensional space doesn’t see the folds in higher dimensions that allow these interactions. We observe a time difference from the source to the target but our observation itself requires similar prabalistic folds in higher dimensions to make such observations, so the effect is never in isolation but as a combination that cancels the paradox. Of course I’m just making this all up, but it sounds good, eh? I’m a little bit high. Sorry.

In the case where people respond without reading based on a kneejerk reaction to a couple of key words, I’d say it is the fault of the reader. Communication takes two parties.

The strawman is the person I replied to arguing against dismissing the entire case based on the claim of three-year-olds having useful memories. And rudely, I might add. I never said that the entire case should be dismissed. They made that up. That was the strawman.
- Comment on reuters.com 2 months ago:
Because I’m not dismissing the whole thing. That notion is being conjured and argued against (a strawman argument). I specifically said he should be investigated and prosecuted. It’s the pre-5yo part that weakens the case and should be dropped, and we shouldn’t pussyfoot around that if we want a solid case (a judicial one and in the court of public opinion).

It only comes across that way for idiots that don’t read. It’s actually important, because a case against Altman has to be very strong. If everyone refuses to talk about the flaky part of the accusation because of feelings, then the whole case is likely to fail when it hits any kind of judicial or media pushback.
- Comment on reuters.com 2 months ago:
You’re the ignorant one here and you need to check your knee-jerk reaction and actually try reading before you respond. I indicated that using a 3 or 4 year old’s memory is dicey, but that she was clearly raped when older and reliably remembers that, and so he should be investigated/prosecuted. But it damages the case against him using unnecessarily flakey memories.

Ok. I believe you, you’ve made your case. I stand ashamed.

Clear as in just like a picture you’ve seen? Or a story you’ve been told many times?
- Comment on reuters.com 2 months ago:
It doesn’t matter because if she was raped she was raped and he should face the consequences. But yes. At 3 you don’t remember stuff. She would have forgotten that. No one has real memories from that age.
- Comment on reuters.com 2 months ago:
I have no idea if it happened or not, but one does not have reliable memories before 5. It’s just a human thing. Sometimes people have a vague image but they can’t place it in time, and it’s usually a reconstructed memory based on a story or a photo.
Basing an accusation like this on a 3-yo’s memory is dicey. It actually weakens the accusation imo. That it continued and she clearly remembers it later is very different and he should be investigated thoroughly. - Comment on reuters.com 2 months ago:
Doesn’t seem unlikely. But how would she know? People don’t have real memories from when they were three.

Yeah that sounds bad. But it’s completely untrue. Like the skin on a knuckle? Haha. If you have to make up stuff why even bother? Conversly, if your dick is really like a knuckle, you should really see a doctor about that.
