Haha that movie was showing as a demo at the wholesale store my family would go to as a kid. I watched it in segments whenever I was there- I thought it was super cool + funny. So much so that when I was in college I convinced my girlfriend to watch it with me and wow that movie sucks I’m sorry to say :;( Although I do still quote “I see this is Flying Dingo IV. What happened to Flying Dingos 1 2 and 3?”

…it doesn’t?

Well for starters the meme is BS, check the other comments. Or just use common sense; there are plenty of traditional tribal societies around today, many of which are well documented. Have you EVER seen a woman from one of those communities hunting big game? I’ve been trying to think of one for the last 5 minutes and I can’t. I’m sure it happens but not a single example comes to mind.

Similarly- when a person is hanging off a building or cliff by one arm, and holding something heavy or another person with the other. It requires an INSANE amount of strength to hold that position, let alone actually haul them back up.

Yeah I’ve read a bit about him. I know he wasn’t a great guy. But history is complicated and so are people.

A sort-of close example might be Erwin R- you know what I’m going to stop myself right now because I’m in over my head and I’m about to wake up some hard-core ww2 historians with very strong opinions

Shiites and Sunnis have been fighting each other for the last 1400 years

There are plenty of places you’re not allowed to walk for your own safety and the safety of others. It’s not a crazy concept, although I do think that jaywalking should be legal

That’s not how half-lives work though

I’m with you, I like sex scenes, sometimes because they represent a satisfying conclusion to a narrative arc but also because sometimes they are just pleasing to look at. Personally I don’t buy the argument that hard-core pornography makes them irrelevant. Have people stopped taking photos of shirtless guys and women in bikinis? No, of course not. The internet is still chock-full of photos and art of this content.

Sex scenes and action scenes dont necessarily “bloat” movies if they are fun to watch. That’s the whole point, right? To be entertained?

And I hope you never used dial-up internet! That is NOT what phone lines are for.

Yeah it really is choosing beggars. If you don’t want to look at ads to view content you should pay for it.

Who gets to collect revenue from the fees though? Where do you draw the line, are you cutting off independent journalism?

My bad I thought you were talking about 2 factor

Yeah but that won’t help you if your password gets stolen somehow and someone is trying to log in from India or something

There’s plenty of precedent for that though. HSA money, personal mobile device usage, credit for using mass transit… they are compensating specific things. Food is a bit odd to be honest; I’m not sure why they don’t just pay you cash.

Yeah I remember getting in argument with someone who suggested violence/intimidation against everyone who committed the crime of…wait for it… driving a Cybertruck
