All of the people replying to this saying you shouldn’t need JS are totally unaware how modern web development works.

Yes, you could do many sites without JS, but the entire workforce for web development is trained with JS frameworks. To do otherwise would slow development time down significantly, not allow for certain functionality to exist (functionality you would 100% be unhappy was missing).

Its not a question of possibility, its a question of feasibility.

Oh that’s an easy one. Its 100% a scapegoat because there is no fucking way in hell they don’t use the term “mental illness” without thinking either.

A) They need to bootstrap themselves out of mental illness

B) Something Something Euthanize Something

Because they are 100% uninterested in fixing stuff, its just a shell game of placing blame elsewhere and doing nothing about anything ever.

I just don’t think it’s feasible at a federal level. Or even for some states (Newsom refusing to do anything about SDGE comes to mind) It’s so easy to cry socialism about this topic too.

I also think there might be a disconnect between government power and politician power.

What incentive does a politician have to support nationalizing the power grid? It wont be a super splashy issue to tackle so it isnt worth doing it for the credit, and the different power companies of the world will just put their money into buying opposition to your effort anyways.

That’s the problem with capitalism is that any single thing you would want to do that would impact some cocksuckers capital, and the threat alone makes it a necessity to pay to win in congress. Usually the only way stuff like this happens is because there is new capital entering the market that can afford to donate against the old capital to overtake them. Its just rich assholes all the way down.

Yeah at that point it kind of morphs genre from dungeon grinder to isometric action. That being said I think isometric action is a way better game type due to the level of involvement and a challenge that’s skill based; whereas I find dungeon grinders to boring from overly simplistic controls and gameplay loops.

That being said I am tired of so many game just giving you 3 real buttons, but this is the problem with making games to make money, if you want to market broad you have to keep it simple.

Behind every problem in life lies capitalisms ugly asshole.

I’m aware its not a technical problem, I was using the word ironically to point out the person I was responding to was wrong to say it…

Also saying we can at any time fix a problem is just being ignorant of the many near impossible steps needed to fix the problem. In this case the problem is capitalism. We could come up with ways to end capitalism or make capitalism work in the interest of humanity, but will it realistically ever happen? No it wont, private money won, look at the topics discussed for presidential debate, never a mention of doing something about private capital owning Washington. Just super effective wedge issues.

You could take this from the point of view that if people feel they are being attacked on their views they become defensive which makes a change in beliefs impossible.

Do you just want to smear shit on these people, or do you want to affect change?

The world has chosen smear shit.

It is a technical problem of how can you convince electrical companies to overcome a problem they have no financial incentive to solve.

So you are arguing its a duopoly?

This would be a great point if we were discussing how fast you can get the item and not the cost of the item.

Yeah as others have mentioned, this is a surefire way to find corruption in new an exciting ways.

How do you determine IQ?

No matter how you answer this question you open yourself up to different methods of corruption, as well as coincidental prejudice.

Is your test based on things only taught in college? Boom! now poor people cant vote.

Is your test based on common knowledge about the world? Boom, people outside of your bubble cant vote.

Also who runs the tests? Who oversees the questions asked? How do you make testing accessible for people with physical impairments? How do you ensure a proper testing environment? Each and every step has a way to inject corruption, and the kind of corruption that grows, since once you start limiting the voting pool u can limit it in a way that allows your brand of corruption to grow.

Its unfortunately not feasible.

The simple truth is that you have to justify the cost. Art is expensive and generates no quantifiable income. Capitalism is poison.

There’s intelligent Republican debaters who can’t be baited out there

This is true, but I’ve seen Vance speak, he has zero charisma. I feel like you need some amount of charisma to be a bullshit artist and have people not see straight through you. I mean people with any semblance of intelligence will see through you no matter what, but votes aren’t weighted on intelligence.

Definitely would have been my first choice to look also, but do you think that staples or office max is going to have something cheaper than amazon?

As someone who shaves regularly, my skin finally cleared when I began using alcohol and fragrance free aftershave lotion.

Too bad we’re too busy fighting endless capitalist manufactured culture wars. Shame we cant put it aside and end capitalist control of our government. Guess humanity is over then ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I’m curious to see how my boy Sanderson handles a book series that is almost entirely politics. Not to say I haven’t seen Sanderson have politics, Stormlight Archives probably the most political of his many books, but its still not even close to the intensely political nature of ASOIAF.

We all know Sanderson would hit a home run though.

I was once told that it isn’t about making your mind blank, it’s about acknowledging the thought that rolls into your mind, and then letting it go. The idea being to train yourself to let trains of thought go. When I’m being a huge dick to myself with my inner monologue I can sometimes remember “oh yeah! I can just not think about this” and then I’ll let my mind go elsewhere.

“Explain it to me like I’m 10 or i cant understand it.”
