Same job title, doesn't always mean same role.
Almost every low level employee at my company has the same job title.
That doesn't mean they are doing the same exact job, and doesn't mean they have the exact same amount of experience and skills.

One employee can handle a dozen different jobs and can work unsupervised, while another employee can only do a few specific low skill jobs and has to be constantly supervised, should they get the same salary because the government thinks it is discrimination? It would be if they had the same pay, discrimination against the more skilled employee.

Skepticism is never unfortunate. Faith has no place in science.

Illegal speech? What is this?
Who defines what is hate speech? Some consider all dissent as hate speech. This is madness.

Is this the young earth creationist wet dream, that would make it possible for the earth to be 5000 years old?

So they discovered that participating in what they have been brought up to rejoice and be in awe of actually causes them joy. I'd be more surprised if the result were the opposite.

That's why people sign up and most never get rid of these delusions because it makes them feel good about themselves. They realize that santa and the easter bunny are not real, somehow they can't do the same thing with their deity and it's prophets.

Yet it's never mentioned that manufacturing tempered glass tiles takes at least 3 times the energy compared to regular old clay. Where is that taken into account?

Until they start showing everything worldwide without any sort of geoblocking

The reason the movie industry doesn't want to sell worldwide licenses to netflix is because they think they can strong-arm a better licensing deal out of local tv stations if the content is not already available on netflix there. But if they stopped to think for one second they'd realize that the audience of a local tv station has almost no overlap with the audience of an english speaking streaming service.

It doesn't matter if it's up to netflix or not. IF they're not opening their entire library I'm not going to pay for it. Would you buy petrol at a petrol station if they told you that sorry, half of it is water, but it's not our fault?

I avoid any concerts or performances where they specifically say I can't take pictures.
If you want to threat me as a pirate then I'm not going to pay you money to see you. Recording for your own private use is fair use anyway. Noone is going to record the entire show from beginning to end on their phones. Only short parts, with extremely crap quality. Those videos ending up on youtube are actually advertisement for you you moron.

I thought it was obvious that you need some sort of radiation shielding for interplanetary space travel.

And of course I mean I can look out for other interests.

I have a high end phone dipshit. Just because I can afford it, I can't look out for other interests apart from mine.

You know that there is capitalism everywhere in europe, right? There wasn't real socialism long before the iron curtain has fallen. We had capitalism since around the sixties. The fall of the iron curtain was nothing more than a formality for us. We've been going shopping to the west long before that.

That's utter bullshit. A good lunch starts at around $5 and then you didn't buy any drinks and only a main course.

They should sell refurbished products for cheaper elsewhere too. It's not like less wealthy people only exist in asia.
"where high-end devices costing $800 or so are beyond most buyers"
You could say this about most of eastern europe, including the states in the EU. The average salary in my country is around 7000 USD / year so not many people can afford even 400 phones.

The only way to stop racism is to stop using the race card to get preferential treatment.
