honestly too light

I thought you said it was common knowledge. is it groundbreaking research?

Soylent just tastes like a slightly cereal flavored milk to me. I honestly prefer it among all the meal replacements, and I’ve had about all of them. I’m going to finish my last few bags of jimmy joy and go back to it.

I think we have different values

there is no higher benefit to any living things than to pass it’s generic material to a new generation. sterilization is not in their interest, but AI is.

artificial insemination is a veterinary procedure. I don’t care to watch videos of live births or spaying and neutering, but that doesn’t make them bad.

it’s not cruelty. the suffering isn’t the intention, it’s just incidental.

it’s called animal husbandry

the thumbnail looked like a tornado behind a skyscraper.

the house can only make $1 per play, and the bettor can make a functionally unlimited amount.

see the martingale strategy. you are basically sticking the house with a martingale strategy in which you get to decide when they bet.

lots of people talk about economics as though it is science.

it’s storytelling, not science

“basic economic principles” is handwaving. you’re storytelling, not making a scientific postulate

Laws are made entirely on morals.

this has never been true

sarcasm is lying with a tone that is supposed to indicate irony. it IS lying tho

this is speciesism

your insistence on relevance is giving the lie to your denial about moving the goalposts.

I know actual game developers who released their games for free or under a pay-what-you-want model. They refuse to do so again because they can’t support themselves by doing it. I am a game developer and I won’t release my games for free because I need to support myself. There is all the data you need.

the plural of “anecdote” is not “data”

You know it and you are simply arguing in bad faith

this is rich coming from someone who is moving the goal posts.

you never mentioned ‘quality’ until you wanted to disqualify data that didn’t support your position.
