    Genkai was a pretty boss character. YYH was kinda shit (in the sense that all fight anime are shit) although I loved it when I was younger but she was one of the redeeming characters.

    Anyway, desire for control is justified to the extent that a person can be expected to use it for the greater good. A good person who wants control over others is justified insofar as they'll use that control for the benefit of everyone. We have these cutesy folk sayings like "power corrupts" and whatnot and there's no doubt some level of truth to them but if you then that's a compelling argument for absolute disbursement of authority then you're a fool. The world needs strong people to make major decisions and there is a lot of inefficiency or corruption that's worth tolerating in exchange for the gains we can only collect with the help of an empowered (near)singular source of authority.

    I knew a girl in college who was named ashley. She was cute in a girl-next-door kinda way but far too religious for my tastes. It's strange though, the combination of really kinda detached interest and weak acquaintanceship inspired some kind of weird desire for her. Like as a fling or something. There's this weird kind of analogue to the uncanny valley in women I find (although definitely skewed) where, starting at unattractive the desire is very low, and as they become more attractive you want them more, but just before you reach the point of "desirable enough I'd date them" there's this big drop off where you actually consider a long term relationship and living with their flaws and at that point they become a lot less attractive and then as they get objectively better they recover, at as somewhat slower rate, from the valley of attractive-but-too-flawed-to-spend-significant-time-with. Anyway, ole ashley was at the peak of the "wouldn't consider dating" range just before the "would consider dating" pit and that somehow made her memorable. She was like the hottest girl I'm not interested in and that somehow sticks out in my mind.

    Anyway, ashely, sounds like a tree or something. Wierd name.

    ugh, whatever blood, I don't have the energy to do the usual song and dance around your cargo-cult cracking. I do wonder who you think your audience is though. When you copy-paste these random context-less chunks of poorly formatted code trained professionals don't know what the hell you're talking about (it's not just me, I've seen you get the same responses from people better than myself) then who do you think is going to read your post and understand? If I were a more suspicious soul I'd think you know you're being unclear in hopes that it lends you some kind of credibility in the eyes of people who don't know enough to tell the difference between poor communication and deep technical magic.

    Most 401k plans give you some flexibility in how your money is invested, what exactly are you looking for? Usually you get a spread of plans that split between liquid assets/bonds/index funds at fairly fine levels of granularity by risk (there were like 30 different plans when I signed up). Unless you're interested in making your own stock picks or something (in which case you're probably missing the point of retirement savings) I don't see what the issue is.

    It is also possible to use the JPEG exploit and .jpg file to link to a remote file in such a way that the file will be inaccessible to anyone not on the white list. Other variations of the technique are possible.

    What do you even think that means?

    Yee, it's probably worth pointing out this won't pass muster with law enforcement
  7. Lanny Bird of Courage
    I do in the full amount my employer will match for, it just doesn't make sense to not collect what is essentially free money. I mean it's not free in the sense that it's part of the cost you represent to your employer and something an employer can use to persuade you with in place of other benefits, but at the point you're working somewhere and you opt not to take advantage of matching then you're just throwing money away.

    Educate me on how pensions work in the states Zanick. Who manages your 401k? What does social security have to do with it? Is that like government pension? Because i wouldn't rely on that simply for the fact that while the national debt in the US seems like a measly 17 trillion the US government has lots and lots of more debt coming in the form of unfunded liabilities.

    You pay into your 401k before tax and then pay tax when you collect it (presumably when you retire). 401ks are managed by private organizations, large companies usually have their own 401k managers while smaller ones will have a financial institution like a bank manage their 401k accounts. The law provides for mechanisms for transferring money between managers and early withdrawal penalties and whatnot but the money is kept with private companies ultimately. Social security is a government pension that you pay into as part of taxes but people have been saying it's going to run out of money any day for literally multiple generations. My grandfather thought social security was going to go belly up so he took his out early and my grandmother didn't, she's collected way more than him despite only working for half as long. My dad drew his social security out early and yet now that he's almost retirement age and they're still paying out. I'm not saying it's going to last forever but so far betting against social security hasn't paid out. Anyway, even if you don't think SS is going under it's still worth saving for retirement because social security almost always represents a (sometimes severe) reduction in quality of life relative to conditions while working.

    Darknet, of course. Your aversion to it seems bizarre to me.

    I'm not adverse to it, I've used it before, it's just an additional level of hassle/shadiness and generally higher prices at volumes I'm interested in, but I'm happy to use it in absence of alternatives.

    Bitch, where the fuck's the LOL,I/IFIOTW and TJI!/whateverthefuckitwasontotse?

    Personally I'd just post it in SG but if you want a dedicated LOL,I forum I can add one.

    You leftists and your superiority complex. You are all just assholes, who think you know best and sit there pontificating from on high, with intellectual masturbation arguments that assume that science is settled and there is an absolute answer to the subject that you are currently educating the rest of us benighted rubes about.

    Lol, do you not see the irony here? What on earth has convinced you that I "assume that science is settled and there is an absolute answer to the subject that you are currently educating the rest of us benighted rubes about"? Because that's not the case at all. Meanwhile all you can focus on is perceived personality defects in people who don't agree with you instead of engaging with the actual argument. Dismissing the huge range of positions that fall under "leftism" because you think (wrongly) that their advocates aren't nice or humble enough is strikingly arrogant.

    It would be funny if, say, next year or so, they find some mechanism in plants that shows that they have a form of sensing unpleasant stimuli, and that they 'suffer' when being prepared and masticated just as much as an animal would.

    Yes, that is something that could happen and if it did (well the part about suffering to an equal degree as animals, it's already obvious that many plants respond to negative stimulus) I would change my position on the matter. But all the evidence we have at the moment suggests the opposite. I mean what exactly do you see as the alternative here? Acting in whatever way is most self serving as long as there is even the smallest room for doubt left? Under that maxim there's literally nothing we could condemn as wrong because hey, problem of other minds, it's conceivable that I'm the only being in the world that can suffer so nothing I can do to anyone else could possibly be wrong. That's obviously absurd. The sane thing to do in any situation is to operate on what we have the best evidence in favor of, and in this case we have strong evidence in favor of plants not suffering on any comparable level to animals.

    I mean, if you guys are so right about everything, then why would anyone ever disagree? I mean, it's so obvious that you are right and everyone else is just ignorant, right?

    What is that even supposed to mean?

    There's a distinction here though. There's "most people are ignorant and I'm not therefore vegetarianism is morally necessary" and then there's "most people are ignorant and I'm not. P.S. vegetarianism is morally necessary". The former is an obvious non-sequitur (malice does this all the time ala "leftists are so emotional/idealistic/naive, ergo their policy is bad") while the latter is certainly arrogant (although one would think it's more for effect given the context) but it isn't a structural error.

    Besides, if the argument for vegetarianism goes through (which clearly some of us believes it does), wouldn't that mean he and his liberal ilk really do know best and are morally correct? Is it arrogant to say something self congratulatory if it's true?
  12. Lanny Bird of Courage
    jesus christ leftists are insufferable.

    'My way is right because I am educated and enlightened, and everyone else's position is based on ignorance'

    you shut the hell up, no one cares about your fucking genitalia

    That wasn't what he said at all, see:

    This post is more to complain than to persuade you to my thinking

    And honestly, on this issue specifically, there is pretty rampant ignorance and intellectual laziness and it's pretty lopsided in terms of who does it. I'm not saying there's never been a bad argument for vegetarianism but a shocking majority of people who advocate for eating meat who wade into the subject have really a handful of stock really terrible arguments. I bet 90% of pro-meat arguments are one of "but plants are alive too!", "derp derp, I like bakon tho", or some Randian bullshit about how you have no moral duty to anyone else because train fanfic and boogeyman communism all of which are so trivially easy to knock down as to be almost embarrassing to respond to.

    5-10mg memantine, 10mg noopept (or equivalent dose of piracetam). Synephrine/yohimbine is my semi-daily low-grade stimulant combo at the moment, I was taking 2-fma daily or every other day for a bit but while it's fun it's not ideal since even with memantine tolerance ramps up pretty quick and the duration is kinda awkward, you need to redose in the middle of the day to be up the whole day and it made sleep an issue so I figure it's better saved for recreation. Caffeine dances in and out of my life, lately I've been drinking a ton of tea but I'm sure tolerance will build up again and I'll just drop it at the point I can't get a reasonable buzz out of drinking tea/coffee. And of course my good buddy ethanol. I do my best work, by far, while buzzed or drunk. I think the booze is the only thing I'd have a hard time giving up

    Yeah, DMT is on my todo list for sure. It's just my singular IRL connection for drugs that aren't pot mentioned he had salvia and was thinking about giving it a try. I think I'll give it a shot anyway, it's absurdly cheap if it's what he says it is. I feel like a lot of the bad reception comes from people who went in thinking it was like legal weed or whatever and if it turns into a bad trip then I'll have had one more new experience.

    What's the protocol for getting DMT anyway (assuming I don't want to do to an extraction or whatever)?

    I was fucking around trying to kill eye of cthulhu for hours and hours, then went and mined a meteorite to get the spacegun/armor and have been fucking up bosses without trying since. It was a wierd difficulty hill where it was hard, hard, then trivially easy.
