Because they believe the North Pole is the center of the flat earth, I don't think this would convince him.

Taking a flight a long the southern hemisphere, though... flat earthers literally believe there are no flights between South America, southern Africa, Australia, new Zealand etc., because they're too far apart

Not to detract from a very important issue, but why does this image look like it was AI-generated?

Hey can I come over and slam ur pogs?

It's born from the same idea that people will pass out Halloween candy with blades in it. Which is a thing that is everyone "knows" about but has never actually been reported to happen.

Love this. I also suspect that the correlation/causation goes both ways: trans people are more likely going to tell a friend they're trans if that person is not transphobic.

I once had a coworker tell me he wasn't going to a company event because he "was working on saying no to things." I thought that was really cool. Not sure how well it would work though for, say, saying no to a friend's invite 🤷‍♂️

That's what PornHub does with IP addresses coming from Utah, Virginia, and Mississippi

If you're not sure why you're getting downvoted, read your first sentence

That's fair, it really depends on your situation!

I've been driving a plug-in hybrid (Chevy Volt) for several years, and it only gets up to 35-40 miles on electric (sidenote: newer plugin hybrids get much better ⚡ range), but that's enough for 95% of my driving. It has saved me thousands of dollars in gas over the years, helped with local pollution levels, and as far as I'm able to determine, has been better for climate change as well.

I fucking love Discord and use it for as much communication as possible...

...but I also agree with everything you say here

ITT: why the quotation marks?

const x = 0;

It was!

It's so weird to me that we're currently defining what people will refer to as "the 20s" for the next century

Same, friend

No thank you.

how do you take a screenshot with the specks on your monitor included?

r/mensfashion is one of the bigger subreddits where this is happening. I read through the post. Everyone who expressed interest was getting down voted like crazy.

The StarCraft storyline and characters resonated so much with me as a kid.

Unfortunately I think engineers, as employees of a company, don't have a lot of power. You aren't typically the one making feature decisions. You can always try to talk product people out of bad ideas, but at some point if you refuse to do what you've been told to, you lose your job. Some engineers are in a financial position to take that high road, but a lot aren't. And then even if you do quit, there will always be someone else willing to do what you aren't.

I think as long as there is money in doing unethical (but legal) things, those things will continue to happen
