As a nerd who was on the internet in the 90s I can assure you that was no filter against idiots.

That’s been my experience. It’s weird seeing people get so angry at op over the assumption that op ignored fundamental information that is so often omitted by the manufacturers.

Weird. The last three TVs I bought didn’t have the foot width listed on the box.

Most TV’s don’t list the width on the feet on the packaging do they?

Well we already established it’s much of an assumption.

Yes indifference makes you cool. Caring about things is for losers. Any more grade school wisdom you’d like to impart?

Your only reply to the whole of the original post was who cares. The doxxing death threats and sexual harassment, who cares. You wanted to say that you were talking about a different part but you gave no context or indication for that when you just said who cares. How is that not indifference to human suffering? It really doesn’t seem like much of an assumption.

Enjoy being proud about being indifferent to human suffering.

I didn’t mention anything other than people that view others as humans would care that other humans are being harassed.

Being doxxed and getting death threats? Oh yeah that’s not cool but who cares?

Also, a more minor point relative to your stance that celebs aren’t human, but how on earth did you manage to equate a public persona with completely obfuscating ones identity or even creating a totally new identity?

People that view others as human.

Was it really necessary to include perky nipples and a camel-toe on Amy?

Really wish these people would jerk off first and then make their fan art.

To be fair he might not like some people because they are black, trans, or little people regardless of if they are conservative or not.

I’m not sure if I would say he’s a bad person. Much more certain about saying that he is not a good person. I look forward to someone else stepping into the role of scientific ambassador to the common folk.

I used to be a fan of Neil until I saw how he conducts himself in person. He is not only arrogant but also needlessly cruel. I watched him make a girl break down and cry in front of an auditorium full of hundreds of people by ridiculing her and the question she asked during the q and a part of his visit. It was intentional and unnecessary. And he even made condescending remarks referring back to her after later questions so it wasn’t like he was accidentally too heavy handed with his initial dismissal of her.

Nah you were genuinely wounded that I didn’t revere the yuuzhan vong.

Nah the mini rant tips your hand. You were not being tongue in cheek, you were being sincere.

Kind of a shitty tone to take over a crappy plot line.

Well to borrow a bit from the rest of the threads here, just how much baby cancer is in the builder’s project or the programmer’s code? The difference in perspective between an all powerful all knowing being knowing fully what the entirety of the outcome of their creation vs our speculation of the outcome of our works is probably incomparable. Would there even be a difference between experiencing the spectacle of the universe verses perfectly knowing it as an all knowing being? That might be an interesting philosophical question.

I think that you are overlooking a lot of things here. If you are God in the traditional modern sense then you would already know how the universe will unfold. You would be gaining nothing by having the “ants” live and suffer. As the creator of the universe you would also have a responsibility for the lives you put in it and you would be responsible if you chose to not intervene in their suffering as well. As the creator it would have been within your power to create a universe without suffering. When we start to consider those points it paints morbid picture. That’s not to attribute that kind of callous cruelty to you, the implications of such a hypothetical are probably not something we’ve spent much time sorting out.

The yuuzhan vong will never be canon for me.
