@LouisIngenthron It would have to have a nearly round shape, orbit the sun. smaller objects arent usually nearly round, so usually not.

@LouisIngenthron Haumea yes, Titan no according to current defitions, yes historically. Historically moons were called secondary planets.

@freemo @georgetakei

Benny confuses me. I haven't watched his videos, this debate stuff isn't my favorite type of content, but i did know that he presents himself as super-rational facts-and-logic skeptic dude. So, because of this i thought he's an atheist, but then i figured out he is also super-religious.

I personally prefer to be polite with religious people because if my "don't be a dick" personal policy. If a person believes in some weird stuff i don't understand, their feelings are still important and they deserve to be treated with dignity.

And there is benny "facts don't care about feelings" shapiro who believe in god.
And i want to ask "what facts, man? What logic?" Facts and logic says there are no magic dude in the sky, no hell, no heaven, and humans are just organic prediction machines who aren't that different from AIs. This level of incoherence really confuses me :thonk:

@lonelyowl

I used to like him way back in the day. He has gotten so desperate to win every conversation he is just cringe lately, especially his bad takes (of which there are many).

@georgetakei

I dont know who needs to hear this... but Pluto is a planet.

@georgetakei Ben shapiro's comments about how his wife is "dry" are starting to make more sense.

A reminder , tomorrow QOTO will be down for migration. ITs the first step in the new upgrades.

@tatzelbrumm Income inequality isnt a bad thing when your poorest live well.

The poor pump in the USA is quite a bit farther ahead than the poor bump in most of the world, and thats what matters, not the dispersion.

I grew up back when all resteraunts had smotking sections. As if smoking on the other side of the room made it safe.

@worldsendless History has no relevanve. You provide aide to people becsuse they are suffering. No other factors matter, full stop

@kilroy_was_here below 30 feet even the worst performing coax will have negligable losses. Just make sure it can handle the power rating. You need over 3x that length before it starts to matter, even then youd need high swr.

@timo21 You absolutely did make a negative blanket statement about all rich people in the USA:

> The USA rich have dissociated themselves from the common good. A country is a shared endeavor of which they are have withdrawn themselves.

Trades people still can afford a boat, assuming its a skilled trade. highly trained welders for example make 6 figures in the USA, more than enough for a boat.

> The current environment is because the rich have dissociated themselves from the USA, are no longer interested in the common good. They want to get rid of social security, for instance.

Some rich want to get rid of social security, some dont, there you go making blanked statements again about the rich.

No the problem arent "the rich", the problem is trying to lump everyone into a group that isnt you and blame them.

No matter how much you want to reduce the world to us vs them it just isnt the reality and the world is far more nuanced than the picture your trying to paint, and its not a healthy perspective IMO.

To be clear I have nothing against you personally, I think you mean well. But this is a harmful take, and a bad one.

@freemo Interesting demon BTW. Maybe he should be the patron demon of programmers or STEM: from the interwebs:

"He is a demon of the First Hierarchy who seduces by means of laziness, vanity, and rationalized philosophies. To others, he teacheth mathematical sciences and handicrafts. He doth make men invisible, lead them to hidden treasures, and give them power over serpents. He teacheth secrets. Every question formulated to him sees truthful answer." 😆

@GeriatricGardener

Horrible take. Humanitarian support for civilians should never be conditional on the events of a war. It is based on if they are suffering or not, full stop.

@LALegault

@lowqualityfacts I bet by the end of the week Dems will actually be reciting this one as fact. Lol the shit they say sometimes.
