Considering that the part about being stewards of god’s creation is mentioned in the first chapter of the bible it’s a feat to have missed it. But here we are

Worse actually, for all their faults I still got the impression that the Pharisees at least tried keeping all the laws.
I’m guessing that we are around 1% of the general population 😉
Not enough for a big company to build a community on though. Of course, it would have helped if Google hadn’t restricted sign-up. Just because it worked for Gmail, but a social network is a different beast than email, that already had a critical mass of users.
Agreed. It’s actually a simple choice for them. Either explain every single item on the list, or advertise the real price of their service in all commercials and so on.
I’m guessing that they want to eat their cake and save it. Or maybe more accurately: keep their cake and eat yours…
If most drivers are rolling through stop signs and you’re the only one stopping completely, while you might technically be in the right, your behaviour could lead to accidents due to the unpredictability.
Simply no. If you as a driver aren’t prepared that the car in front of you might actually stop when there’s a sign that says stop, and if you aren’t keeping enough of a distance to be able to break, then it isn’t the car in front that is the problem, or who is the one causing the accident, it’s you and only you.
The same applies to speeding. Driving significantly slower than the flow of traffic might slow down the traffic flow, leading to unsafe overtakings and such.
Again no. If they are driving at the speed of the signage, keeping the speed and driving predictable, then the ones driving “significantly” faster are the ones decreasing road safety. No-one is forcing them to perform “unsafe overtakings and such”. Also, just because you, from your vantage point, can’t see a reason for the car in front of you driving slowly doesn’t mean that there isn’t one.
While a dose of humility is good, a dose of personal responsibility is also great
I still miss Google+, my friends and my sharing is based on the subject not my relation to my friends.
To “hack it” also means to be able to handle something. That there were multiple meanings for the word was never in question and I really do agree with you that language evolve over time and you simply need to learn to live with that.
But also, if you go back and look at my response to op I also wrote that I found it unsuitable to use it in this case exactly due to the risk of being misunderstood.
Earliest I’ve heard was from MIT and the pranks they do. I think that was from the fifties.
Yes, Ikea hacks are much later. Me and my wife were doing it/calling it that around 2005 when we modded a desk. It was intended to be an example of the dual usage of the word hack.
You probably already know but hacking originally meant to modify a machine for instance (or furniture as in ikea hacks) but it really is a word one should avoid when speaking with people who aren’t part of the communities that use it in its original meaning.
…with a max load of 40 kg including the driver.
Yes but it can do “cd…”
“I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad…”, what actually does people think toxic masculinity is? The one you’re replying to seems to have been tricked into believing that feminists think that all masculine traits are bad. They are actually listening to the enemy of their own self best interests.
I think there might be some overlap causing confusion. Being protective and problem solving are not inherently bad, but combine it with stuff like dominating, controling and not listening to others, and it can be very harmful. So a person might believe that they are just being protective but since they didn’t listen to the other person their actions turns to controling instead.
Ah but when the prices can’t go any higher they can always remove content, paying their suppliers less and getting cheaper hardware. I wish I was joking but these are the options that are left.
