Overall acne just won't go away\nHey guys, I've been struggling with acne since 2017, it's been more than a year and I still can't be able to have clear skin, I am 16, and I understand there's hormones. \n\nI cut out dairy a long time ago and saw little improvements, I NEVER drink anything other than water and juice (with this being less than a cup a day) I sleep well, and do everything in my power to be healthy, but still won't have clear skin. \n\nMy routine is this\nAM: Rinse my face with water, put some AHA Paula's choice and finally put on Bior\u00e9 screen protector 50 SPF\nPM: Wash face with 10% benzoyl peroxide, put on some clindamycin phosphate topical solution 1% and some moisturizer\n\nAny help will be appreciated\n\nImages\nhttps:\/\/imgur.com\/a\/f7Xeum4\n\nnicolewloszek: Great idea cutting out dairy. Even if you don\u2019t see any direct results I bet it\u2019s helping you. I have sensitive acne prone skin, and I think my routine would help you tons. \nMorning- wash with Mario badescue acne facial cleanser. This stuff is really gentle and I can say that it totally does help my acne. I think it would benefit you. Next I tone with witch hazel on a cotton pad, which I think would help you TONS!!! then I use the vanishing cream moisturizer by lush. It\u2019s pricey but since I found it I couldn\u2019t imagine using anything else. My skin is looking great. \nAs for night time, I use the glycolic acid cleanser by Mario badescue. This would be great for you because glycolic acid can help get rid of some of that discoloration, and it\u2019s specially good for the tiny bumps you have as well as blackheads. Next I use the glycolic acid gel every other night. Reccomend 100% to you! It does the same kinda thing as the cleanser. Then I use the same moisturizer! If getting the moisturizer is not an option for you, I would recommend using tea tree or vitamin e oil overnight on your breakouts. \nFor face masks I reccomend the cosmetic warrior and don\u2019t look at me from lush. \nShit can be expensive, so if you can only get a few items, I would 100% reccomend getting the two cleansers ( they have small 2 oz bottles of each for $6) a cheap bottle of witch hazel ($3),  a bottle of vitamin e oil and tea tree oil ($2-$3 each) and the cosmetic warrior mask from lush. ($10) also, if you happen to have a lush store near you, you can get free samples of all the masks and moisturizer I mentioned! I tried a sample of the moisturizer before I got the full size and it lasted me 2 weeks! \n\nOver the last year or two I\u2019ve been perfecting my skin care routine. I\u2019ve tried  tons of products and tons of different solutions but I got lucky enough to find relatively cheap and easy stuff that works better than anything I\u2019ve used before. Best of luck to you! \nhengarg: Thank you so much! Thanks for the specific response. I have one question, what does witch hazel do? And do witch hazel pads work? Or does it need to be a bottle?\n\nAlso, what does the face mask do? Does a home one work? I currently use honey mixed with apple cider vinegar and baking soda!\nnicolewloszek: Witch hazel is an anti inflammatory, and anti viral, so it helps to calm redness, heal acne, and kill bacteria that causes it! It also helps to get any gunk out of your pores that your face wash might\u2019ve missed. Pads work, but I prefer just straight bottled witch hazel on a cotton pad. \n\nThe face mask is an extremely gentle alternative to harsh cleansers and spot treatments. It\u2019s specifically for acne, and deeply cleans your skin with tea tree oil and garlic, and it moisturizes as well! At home ones work but I wouldn\u2019t reccomend using baking soda and apple cider vinegar on your skin. Apple cider vinegar and the African clay mask actually made my skin terribly worse. If you can go to lush and get a free sample\nI would 100% reccomend it because the face mask is really worth every penny and I think that a decent face mask really makes a difference in your skin! \nhengarg: Alright, thank you so much! I will definitely try it, although the face mask is a bit expensive for a student like me, unfortunately I don't live near a lush, but thanks!\n","num_messages":5,"avg_score":0.8,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0484,"11":0.0435,"12":0.0389,"13":0.0367,"14":0.0341,"15":0.0331,"2":0.2845,"3":0.167,"4":0.1202,"5":0.0972,"6":0.0773,"7":0.0654,"8":0.06,"9":0.0557},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0725,"4":0.0282,"5":0.0081,"6":0.0027,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2300412521,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.4886211513,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":663.5}

So I'd go slow and gentle if you want to introduce that, especially since you mentioned that redness is already a concern of yours. Because in addition to being anti-aging, Vitamin C is also an exfoliant. Perhaps you could start with either a) the weaker concentration they also carry or b) a Vitamin C derivative that's gentler?

This could be due to numerous things so I wanted to see what you guys think\n\n\nFirst, I thought my previous cleanser was too harsh and drying out my eyelids (but not my skin). I used Smooth Operator by Formula 10.0.06. My moisturizer, which I would put on my eyelids occasionally, was Cerave's rough and bumpy skin in the tub. \n\nMy eyelids were really struggling at this point, so I made a point to avoid touching my eyes with any product, but that did not really help. I started tret about a week ago so I opted for gentler cleansers and moisturizers as my face skin was tingling like crazy. Now, my face does not feel bad but my eyelids were still troubling. \n\nI thought the products were drying out my eyes, but recently it dawned on me that I switched eyelash curlers from the Sephora brand gold colored one to the Shiseido one. I have a nickel allergy that is not really severe and usually only react when I'm exposed to it for a period of time.\n\nI'm now starting to think maybe the change in eyelash curlers was the result of the dry skin on my eyelids, as today after not doing any eye makeup my eyes feel a little better.\n\nDo you think my eyelids are dry because of the products or the curler? Since my eyelids are really dry is it safe to put some moisturizer on them? Does the Shiseido eyelash curler even have nickel in it?\nskite456: From what you have said I think it could be a combination of both. The products you used could have definitely started it, especially since you said you had some tingling in your face. The eyelid skin is very thin and super sensitive so the reaction would be magnified in that area. With your eyelids already troubled from the product adding the possible nickel allergy probably just added to the problem making it either worse or extending the issue. \n\nI would definitely stay away from any products and your curler until you have it under control. You can use a clean finger or cotton pad to apply a thin layer of Vaseline or use a petroleum jelly based eye ointment Refresh PM works really well. It\u2019s ok if it gets into your eyes, that\u2019s what it is made for. Just be sure to get in bed before putting it on cause it can make your vision blurry. Learned that one the hard way! Lol!

It struggles a bit to remove heavy duty makeup but for everyday it\u2019s percent. \n\nDr Dennis Gross Alpha Beta Cleansing Gel:\nThe only cleanser with actives that I\u2019ve found that doesn\u2019t dry my skin out. My skin never feels tight or dry when I use this and I think it really helps keep my congestion at bay.\n\nSkyn Iceland Nordic Skin Peel:\nThese peels are so gentle and cooling on the skin. I find I get a little bit of teary eyes when I use them (I don\u2019t use them around my eyes) but for 2-3 times a week, it really helps keep my skin smooth and clear.\n\nThe Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid\nThe best! Helps my moisturiser absorb into my skin better and really helps keep my skin feeling bouncy and hydrated. \n\nDrunk Elephant LaLa Retro Cream:\nThis is okay. I like how it feels on my skin and I always feel nice and hydrated straight after using it. But, for winter I think I\u2019m going to have to find something a bit heavier duty that really helps hydrate my skin.\n\nDr Lipp Original Nipple Balm (it\u2019s a lip balm \ud83d\ude05):\nI love using this before bed as I never have chapped lips in the morning.

He says it\u2019s no fuss as it comes off easily and doesn\u2019t leave an annoying residue. \n\nTatcha Polished Original Enzyme Powder:\nAgain, way too drying for me but my partner loves this on those days after the gym or just for when he feels his face is extra dirty.\n\nStridex 2% Salicylic Acid Peels:\nSuper harsh on me, but my partner has really noticed a difference in consistency of his skin since he\u2019s been using them. His skin isn\u2019t much clearer as it struggles to get out black heads but the smoothness of his skin is much nicer.\n\nGrown Alchemist Hydra-Repair Day Cream:\nI think this is a bit of a meh product for him.

Is some of the spots on my skin melanin?\n\n​\n\nThanks\nShreepShreep: Firstly, taking a video of your skin is a great idea. So many people just use a blurry photo, which we can\u2019t see anything from.\n\nSecondly, I suggest a gentler face wash. You said you use a blackhead scrub twice a day. I don\u2019t know what product that is, but I\u2019m guessing it has little micro beads in it. That is too abrasive to be using twice a day. A specific product that I can personally recommend is the CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser. I use an oil cleanser before it during my nighttime routine.\n\nThirdly, moisturizing is a good idea. But it by itself won\u2019t make much of a difference in the texture of your skin.\n\nFourthly, I hate to break it to you, but dermarollers aren\u2019t a very good product. Because they have a \u201crolling\u201d action, the needles make a ripping motion, rather than the straight up and down motion of a professional device. They cause more injury to the skin because of this. I wouldn\u2019t recommend it. But you could still use the serum that came with it. \n\nFifthly, your skin is pretty normal. Those are just pores, but if you want to try to reduce them, you could try retinoids or acids. I personally use Differin and I like it for reduction of acne, scars, and hyperpigmentation. Some acids you could use every other day are azelaic, salicylic, glycolic, mandelic, or lactic acids. Just don\u2019t go overboard.\n\nLastly, you should be using a sunscreen. It will prevent any dark marks from getting darker, and you from getting wrinkles. I can personally recommend the Skin Aqua UV Super Moisture Milk (Yellow Bottle). It comes in a fairly small bottle, but it\u2019s so great bc it has no white cast. Or, to save time, you could use a moisturizer with SPF in it, like the CeraVe A.M. Moisturizer.\n\nHope this helps!\nyacobm8: I think its really interesting what you say about the scrub being too abrasive with the microbeads in it. I was actually considering using a brush or something to really scrub my face with it as I thought it would work better. On top of this I was actually using my nails to scratch my face all over thinking that it was helping. I'll stop that now, I'm wondering if I can see a dermatologist? I think they're called \ud83d\ude03 maybe they could take a look and help me out on exactly what to try.\nShreepShreep: \ud83d\ude31\ud83d\ude31 omg I\u2019m glad you are stopping with the abrasion!

I can be completely comfortable, and not feel warm at all, but still be sweating. My underarms are very sensitive, which has made this journey even more difficult. I figured I would post about what has and has not worked for me to help those that are struggling as well. \n\n**Dove Invisible Dry 48H** (Spray)- Positive Points: No alcohol, Hydrating - When I lived in the US I mainly used Dove when I was a teenager. I have tried this as well as all their other anti-perspirant products, but nothing helped at all. The scent is mild, but once you start sweating it\u2019s just gone. \n\n**Old Spice Bearglove Anti-Perspirant + Deodorant** (Stick) - Positive Points: Don\u2019t see any - This was something I also used when I lived in the US. I mainly used it because I really enjoy the smell of this. This does have aluminum though, which I know in the US is the main ingredient to fight sweating. I did not know this until until about 2 years ago, but aluminum is how you get yellow stains on your clothing. For most of my life I thought my sweat was what was staining my clothes, so that was a \u201cmind = blown\u201d moment for me. My husband does still use this, but he doesn\u2019t have a sweating issue, so it works for him just fine. \n\n*Everything is now going to be products that I have used since moving to France, so these may not be as available in the US. I am going to try and go in the order I purchased\/tried products.* \n\n**Etiaxil D\u00e9odorant Anti-Transpirant 48h Roll-On** (Not Pictured) - Positive Points: No alcohol, for sensitive skin, hypoallergenic, paraben free - I was prescribed this (although you don\u2019t need one to buy it) by my GP. I thought this stuff was magic at first. It completely solved my problem for the first few days, but then I woke up in the middle of the night with the worst itch I have ever experienced under my arms. I had giant red welts that were incredibly painful. It took 2 weeks for my underarms to look and feel relatively normal again. I spot tested to double check if it was the Etiaxil that caused it, and the same thing happened. I am really not sure what I reacted to, but even though it says no alcohol, this product has a very high alcohol smell, and it will burn a bit when you apply it. \n\n**La Roche-Posay Innovation 48H Deodorant** (Spray + Not Pictured) **-** Positive Points: No aluminum salts, no alcohol, paraben free, anti-humidity - This was terrible. The smell turns absolutely rank within an hour of use. I would never recommend this to anyone. Did not help with sweating, and just made me smell even worse. \n\n**Vichy Traitement Creme Anti-Transpirant 7 Jours** (Cream) **-** Positive Points: No alcohol - This is a bit different. It is a treatment cream for intense perspiration. I noticed in other reviews that a lot of people did not notice that the instructions for use are printed on the inside of the box this comes in. The first 2 weeks you use this are a different routine than what you will stick with. Regardless...this simply doesn\u2019t work at all. It has a nice, spicy scent to it that I like, but that\u2019s as far as the positives go. It was not irritating at all, which was also a plus. \n\n**Vichy D\u00e9odorant Anti-Transpirant 48H** (Roll-On) **-** Positive Points: No alcohol, no perfume, for sensitive skin - Meh. Does not work. Simple as that. I am not a fan of roll-ons as they make me feel sticky for a bit after use. \n\n**Roc Keops Dry Spray 24H Deodorant -** Positive Points: No alcohol, no perfume - This says it is for normal skin. This makes me feel fresh for about half an hour, but then it\u2019s right back to my normal sweaty, stinky self. I hold my breath when I spray this, and I leave the bathroom right after use, but I still feel like I inhale this, and I can feel it stuck in my throat. \n\n**Ducray Hidrosis Control Roll-On 48H Anti-Transpirant -** Positive Points: no alcohol, no perfume, has been tested on sensitive skin  - On the container it says it \u201creduces and normalizes excessive perspiration\u201d. Sweeter words have never been said. This actually *works!* I have been using this for a few weeks now, and it seems to be the one! I have noticed a dramatic difference in how frequently I sweat, and it has to be a lot hotter than normal for me to sweat at all. This does have a rather harsh alcohol smell though, even with the \u201cno alcohol\u201d label. It also says to not use after shaving, which I am following because I am doing my best to prevent any irritation. No problems so far.\n\n**Weleda Rose 24H Deodorant** (Spray) **-** Positive Points: No aluminum salts - This also says not to use after shaving. The smell of this is simply overpowering; I cannot handle it. I used it for 2 days before red welts started appearing on my underarms. I was not sure if it was from the Ducray product, or this at first that was causing it, so I ceased both. A few days later I tried a spray of this, and my underarm instantly started burning. It\u2019s a no thanx from me. \n\n**Merci Handy Clean Deodorant** (Stick) - Positive Points: No aluminum, no alcohol, paraben free, cruelty free, no essential oils, clear so no residue on clothes - I received this in my Birchbox for this month, and I am in love. The scent is absolutely perfect (the smell is labeled as Namaste, but I dunno how that translates into a scent). It just smells *clean*. It also covers the alcohol smell of the Ducray product perfectly. I have no irritation with this, and I smell nice all day & night. I am very surprised, and pleased, with how long the clean smell lasts. It is not overpowering at all either. So far it is working very well with the Ducray, so I think I might have finally found a routine that works for me! This one is made in France, and since I got it through Birchbox I\u2019m really not sure where else it is available.\nAliceLid: This is amazing post. I have been trying out new solutions to sweat and having a terrible time. I don\u2019t sweat excessively, but when I do sweat, nothing works. \n\nI love SweatBlock\u2014 it smells like cloves and does last multiple days. But not knowing when it\u2019s going to crap out on me is too stressful, plus it\u2019s pricey. I keep it for travel. \n\nCertain-Dri clinical works really well but it burns. So much pain. \n\nI got Alba Botanical deodorant and it pretty much doesn\u2019t work at all. \n\nI\u2019m going to look into your recommendations.\nmusic_is_sexy: I used Certain-Dri for about 6 months in 8th grade. I would apply it before bed, lay down, put my hands behind my head and then silently scream as my sweat glands were seared from my skin. My armpits were red and the skin was flaking, but it fucking worked. I went from sweating constantly, to being the only guy with dry pits at the end of basketball practice. \n\nI don't exactly recommend Certain-Dri, especially to those with skin more sensitive than average, but if you're desperate and can deal with the pain, it could be what someone is looking for. I used it for 6 months and had no problems for the rest of high school. Unfortunately, that's the only high-strength antiperspirant that I have experience with.\nAliceLid: Lol, they tell you to use it before bed but then you can\u2019t sleep from the pain! I find it strange that SweatBlock is supposed to last longer but doesn\u2019t hurt at all when they\u2019re both aluminum chloride vehicles. Gives me hope there\u2019s a similarly strong product out there without the pain.\nmusic_is_sexy: I had been dealing with the overactive sweat in my pits for 2 years, trying all kinds of \"extra strength\" antiperspirants. So when someone said \"yep, I did too. Use this stuff\" and then it actually worked, I didn't even think to look for something similar that didn't burn. I was just happy that I could wear a shirt that wasn't black without being embarrassed.\nAliceLid: The fact that you didn\u2019t automatically search for a better product makes me question you\u2019re being in this sub \ud83d\ude02\nmusic_is_sexy: I was 12 tho \ud83d\ude1e\nAliceLid: Fair enough.\n","num_messages":9,"avg_score":8.5555555556,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0518,"11":0.0485,"12":0.0456,"13":0.0429,"14":0.0403,"15":0.0382,"2":0.3058,"3":0.1892,"4":0.1376,"5":0.1056,"6":0.0842,"7":0.0692,"8":0.0615,"9":0.0564},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0745,"4":0.0352,"5":0.0141,"6":0.0077,"7":0.0042,"8":0.0028,"9":0.0014},"special_characters_ratio":0.2335195531,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.5445614035,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":541.8}

BP works best when left on the skin. In the evening I would drop the ointment. It\u2019s probably too heavy for your acne-prone skin. If that doesn\u2019t work you could try mixing a pea-sized amount of BP with Differin Gel (0.1% Adapalene). Apply that mixture once a day in the evening.

Heavy olive oil based so you don't get a lot of lather, (I like lather) also a bit heavy on the essential oils so it's somewhat over powering, but has poppy seeds and other exfoliants right in the bar.  I'll probably search around the next time I order.\n\nI've explored making my own cp soap and plan on doing that this weekend actually so I control what oils are used.  It's fascinating the properties of each oil and it's purpose in the soap as far as lather and setting goes.      \nspunky-omelette: I've been looking to try a more natural and nourishing bar soap (I've used a basic Dove beauty bar my whole life), and that first bar sounds really nice.  Do you remember the brand name?\nsararosered: I bought it in Myrtle Beach, SC on vacation at a store called \"Splash\" at Broadway at the Beach.  Checked when I got home and they didn't have a website (thus the olive oil heavy soap trial) further looking today though led me to [a website huzzah!](http:\/\/splashfresh.com)\n\nI didn't see the particular soap I purchased however.  The Goldilocks soap is similar just scented differently.  Stay away from the \"cutesy\" shapes in soap.  Those are melt and pour (glycerin) and not all that great.  I might need to call and ask about it, hah, it was that good.\n\nWhen I'm home and have my list of bookmarks, I'll link to another site that will explain the oils used in cp soap better so you can search around etsy or other sites. (Shea butter vs. Cocoa butter vs. Goat Milk vs. Coconut oil)\n\n\nspunky-omelette: I didn't know that about shaped soap!  I appreciate it. :)\nsararosered: I should clarify... the clear soap with shapes in it on the website is mostly glycerin... it's not BAD per say (a ton of beauty products are made with glycerin) I personally don't care for it though.  Cold process soap can be created in cute molds and shapes.    \n\n[The link I promised earlier](http:\/\/candleandsoap.about.com\/od\/coldprocesssoapmaking\/a\/createcprecipe.htm)  is relevant as far as what oils do in cold process soap.  \n\n* Hard, stable, long lasting - (palm oil, beef tallow, lard)\n\n* Lathering - (coconut, castor, palm kernel)\n\n* Moisturizing\/Conditioning - (olive oil, canola, sunflower, soybean)\n\n* Luxury\/Super Moisturizing - (cocoa butter, shea butter, almond oil, hemp oil, jojoba)\n\n\nYou want a nice combo of hard, lather and moisture.  (Ignore all the stuff about percentages, the percentages are for actually creating the recipes).  \n\n[Miller's](http:\/\/www.millersoap.com\/soapdesign.html#Properties) further explains it, but it's a ton of information and is good in general.\n\nEdit:  stupid formatting\n","num_messages":6,"avg_score":4.1666666667,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0372,"11":0.0348,"12":0.0233,"13":0.0156,"14":0.0101,"15":0.0067,"2":0.2902,"3":0.1673,"4":0.1173,"5":0.0881,"6":0.0661,"7":0.0532,"8":0.0467,"9":0.0405},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0122,"4":0.0,"5":0.0,"6":0.0,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2494618512,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.4491654021,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":654.9}

Now, read the whole biscuity post because you don't know who you can and cannot sue. (I heard what you were just thinking, and no, you don't know who you can sue.)\n\nEveryone believes they know something about the law (including you, which is why you almost decided not to continue reading). Millions of websites claim to describe the law. But everyone makes mistakes, including lawyers, so how can you know on what information you can rely?\n\nFirst, assume that everything you read or hear about law is wrong in some way. The source is irrelevant: whether you are talking to an 8-year-old child or a US Supreme Court justice or a government official, you should assume some part is wrong or incomplete or otherwise unreliable.\n\nIn the United States, if you received the information or advice from _your_ lawyer, then if the advice is wrong, and you are damaged as a result of the error, you can (almost always\u2020) sue your lawyer.\n\n(\u2020 No, I won't explain the bizarre exceptions because this post is too long, but thank you for asking.)\n\nIf you are talking to a lawyer, she is not necessarily _your_ lawyer. Therefore, you should know who is and is not your lawyer. (\"Duh. This guy thinks I'm too stupid to know who my lawyer is.\")\n\nIt might seem silly, but it's common to feel she is your lawyer when she is not actually your lawyer. For example, if you are an executive at a company and you are speaking to a lawyer about the company, she might be your lawyer, but she is probably the company's lawyer\u2014and those are _not_ the same. There are many other situations that can be confusing\u2014even lawyers can get confused when receiving legal advice from other lawyers. (So, if god-like lawyers can get confused, then your nematode-brain can get confused.)\n\nIf you have a piece of paper that reads, \"Dear Bob, I am your lawyer,\" lists the legal topics she will advise you about, and is signed by her, then she is your lawyer when she gives you advice about those topics. Unless your name isn't Bob.\n\nIf you don't have a magical paper, you should ask, \"Are you _my_ lawyer?\" If you want to be very precise, you could ask something similar to, \"Are you my personal lawyer in this situation and do you have any potential conflicts of interest?\" If she says she is your (personal) lawyer, then she is your lawyer.\u2021\n\n(\u2021 Law is absurdly complex. If someone wanted to be a jerk, he could comment that in rare situations, she might not technically be your lawyer but you can still sue her as if she were your lawyer. And that jerk could write that my statement is not precise. Whatever. Nothing written here is legal advice, and no one is paying me so I'll be imprecise if I want to be imprecise, Bob.)\n\nMake no mistake, it is inevitable that someone, somewhere in the US, even when receiving advice from the greatest of all time (goat) lawyer, will receive erroneous advice. Therefore, for the love of kittens and kisses and kitten kisses, ***never rely on legal advice from a person you cannot sue if they are wrong***. \n\n(And don't take advice from a goat lawyer, Bob.)\n-ondo-: If you try just a little harder, and I know you have in it you to do it, but if you try *just a little* harder you can be even more arrogant and cunty. Don't stop my man, keep striving.\nNotACerealStalker: Go to his username history and see everything.

Most punches can be directed to your face. When you are about to fight someone, you may not be thinking of your jaw but it should be taken very seriously. \n\nNot clenching your jaw can lead to several bad things to occur. For one, if the other person lands a good hit, you can have a hard time breathing or even worse, break some teeth in the process. Secondly, have you heard the term \u201cspin his jaw\u201d... Well that\u2019s the whole point. When you punch someone in the jaw who does not have a firm clench, you can likely KO the person or stun them very temporarily. It\u2019s enough for them to land many more punches to your face. The last thing you want in a fight is to get knocked out. \n\nYour don\u2019t have to clench as hard as you can, just have a firm clench.\n\nEdit: People engage for the dumbest reasons and I am very much against that. I meant this post in a way where someone is engaging you and the only move is defensive. Of course, I only hope that you are able to avoid fighting at all costs and not have to fight but I hope people know this info in the worst case scenario.\nHocuspokerface: Apparently I get ready to fight in my sleep every night\nBrandonR_24: For reaalllll. Only developed the habit as an adult. So inconvenient. lol\ndigital_end: Chat with a dentist about getting a mouthguard, it'll fuck your teeth if you don't.\n\nI wish I had. I ended up wearing down my teeth quite a bit clenching my jaw.  Got it before there was any debilitating damage, but sure as hell damaged them.\nBrandonR_24: Yeahhhhh, I wear one. U get used to em but they still suck. lol Just one more thing I have to check off the list of things to do before going to bed and right after getting up. Thanks for the heads up tho, not doing what u have to definitely has consequences. I can't wait until there's some kind of easier alternative.\nLG0110: I get botox in my lower jaw making it harder to clench. It's about 10 bucks a unit and I get 4 units on both sides. It lasts about 4 months. I also take Amitryptiline at night to help as well. My dentist does the botox and it isn't noticeable, meaning it doesn't change the appearance of my face or anything. I also don't have problems chewing although on the third day it is a little tight, not painful, but I think that is when it kicked in. Also, have your mouth guard inspected. They have come a long way since I first began wearing them. The one I have now is hard on the outside and has a soft cushion on the inside.\nBrandonR_24: Good looking out. I've heard Botox is an option but haven't looked into it much. It kinda scares me. lol I have a guard I bought off Amazon for now because my insurance only covers one for my lifetime. *smh*\nLG0110: My guard cost 350 and that seems to be the going rate but it was worth it to me and I used part of my stimulus for it. Teeth should not be a luxury bones. Id like to say the Botox scared me too but I was in so much pain that I was desperate for relief. I have tmjd but I also have facial nerve pain that is worse than labor pain so I would have had every tooth in my head pulled at that time if I could have had relief.\nshabibby: Have you ever heard of trigeminal nerve dysphoria? Sounds like you could potentially be affected by it. Look around and see if any of your local optometrists are Neurolens providers. I had horrid clenching\/migraine issues and I\u2019m about to close my second or third year without a migraine and far more comfortable face\/head\/neck\/shoulder muscles thanks to the lenses.\nLG0110: I didn't know there was a correlation to the eyes!!! Are you saying you have certain lenses that help??\n\nThis is crazy but I have not been to the eye doctor in 23 years. I guess I should go.\nshabibby: To clarify, the nerve issue was due to a slight misalignment of my eyes, and the overcompensation\/over activity of my eyes trying constantly to accommodate triggered the nerve issue, which then had a cascade effect.\nLG0110: Wow! I had no idea. I guess it would be wise to rule that out at least. You might want to stop on over at the Trigeminal Neuralgia sub reddit. It could help someone.\nshabibby: I didn\u2019t know about the sub, will definitely make a visit.

I find this makes Firefox crash a lot but at least with Firefox it only loads a page with band with once its clicked on while chrome will load each page that was closed which may cause it to THEN crash\njcoopr86: Waterfox seems to load *every* tab you had open before, even in Panorama, no matter how you close it. Though it will not load every page unless you click on the tab (Chrome loads every tab at one time) Somewhat annoying, but if my PC accidentally reboots or I just have to close it, it's nice to not lose any tabs... I have like 40+ open at any given point.\nLe_Jonny_41293: Yeah that's exactly what I said chrome will load all pages at once which considering I often have about 3 windows open. ( school fun and random) with maybe about 80 odd tabs it sometimes will make chrome crash because of how many tabs are ALL loading at ONCE. Whereas with Firefox it'll only load the page once I click on that tab saving me RAM and bandwith (which I'm not too concerned about)\n\nHowever it seems that more tabs will make Firefox crash much more often than chrome however when it comes to getting back on Firefox is much better at loading everything back up wge saving the most resources\njcoopr86: I've never known Chrome to load previous tabs unless it *crashed* but manually closing it loses tabs. WaterFox actually keeps all previous tabs regardless of how it closes or crashes.\n\nThen again, I have not used Chrome as my default browser for close to a year now; I can't leave FireFox\/WaterFox's tab manager \"Panorama\", it's too useful and Chrome just doesn't have any equivalent.\n\nI apologize if I sounded like I was trying to contradict your post, I was not. I misread \"chrome will load each page that was closed which may cause it to THEN crash\" as just meaning the tabs are restored but the pages themselves don't get loaded\nLe_Jonny_41293: Oh Firefox does that by default? Cause I remember having to go into settings to make it reopen tabs from the previous session same with chrome go into settings and set it to reopen tabs from the previous session.\n\nNo yeah what I meant was it'll try to load all 80tabs at once which being a ram hog isn't very nice and then it peaks and crashes sometimes\njcoopr86: I don't know if FireFox does it, but *Water*Fox, the 64-bit non-official variant does by default, yes. Being 64-bit, it has the ability to utilize all 16GB of RAM that I have instead of just the 3.2GB or so that 32-bit can utilize. Thus, I have 0 issues with crashing when using as many tabs as 40, or in your case, 80.\nLe_Jonny_41293: What other benefits are there to waterfox?\njcoopr86: Nothing really, it's the exact same as FireFox as far as I can tell... It uses the same API's, just built with the better architecture...\n\nThe only positive I see of FireFox\/WateFox over Chrome is Panorama\/tab management... It's a major turning point for me though..

Looking back there were incredible advantages to going to a junior college for 2 years. I had decent grades in high school, something like a 3.5 GPA. With that I was able to get a full academic scholarship (room and board) for 2 years relatively easy. Would not have qualified for full ride at a 4 year school and would have been forced to take out large loans. We had some very competitive athletic teams with many athletes headed for division 1 teams but that were unable to make the grades at a 4 year school, so had to settle for junior college. All of the general ed classes were quite easy given the goal maintaining eligibility of the athletes. So long story short you could take a bunch of classes each semester (I took 20 plus credits a semester while playing a sport) to pad your GPA. When I finished junior college I had zero debt and had tons of transferable 4.0 GPA credits having taken most all of my gen eds. I then transferred to a 4 year college where I could focus on my major which ended up being chemistry and biology. There were some tough classes and so I didn\u2019t always make A\u2019s but with so many transferable credits and high gpa from junior college it didnt make a dent in my final GPA to get a B or a C here or there. \n\nTL:DR Why YSK:  junior college is far cheaper than 4 yr university with much easier scholarship opportunities; classes are much easier and you can pad your GPA for 4 year school.\ndeltron6ixty9ine: What do you think would be the Canadian equivalent of a Junior College? We basically have \"college\" which means trade school essentially (there's other stuff too) and \"University\" which US residents know as a 4 year college.\ndjqvoteme: What province are you in???\n\n\nIn Ontario, colleges are most definitely not trade schools alone. Ontario colleges fulfill the same role as what an American junior or community college does more or less.\ndeltron6ixty9ine: Manitoba! I suppose I shouldn't speak for all of Canada. Atleast where I'm from colleges are things like MITT or Red River College\ndjqvoteme: I guess your options in Manitoba are pretty limited in that case. \n\nIn Ontario, a lot of colleges offer the typical certificate and diploma-level programs, but also offer pre-degree programs designed to transition students into university to complete an undergraduate degree.\n\nIn Quebec, this is actually a built-in part of their public K-12 education system. 2-year junior colleges in Quebec are called C\u00e9geps and replace what Grade 12 and 1st year of Canadian uni\/freshman year of a US 4-year college is in the rest of the country. Undergraduate programs in Quebec are 3 years instead of 4 because of this.\n\nYou would really have to inquire with a local university to see what pre-degree programs exist in your area, but this sounds like something that would be very limited in Manitoba based on what you're saying.\n","num_messages":5,"avg_score":41.0,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0552,"11":0.0501,"12":0.0462,"13":0.043,"14":0.0347,"15":0.026,"2":0.2804,"3":0.1742,"4":0.1432,"5":0.1137,"6":0.0952,"7":0.0824,"8":0.0734,"9":0.0635},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0398,"4":0.0114,"5":0.0,"6":0.0,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.21024,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.4981132075,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":558.2}

For context,  I'm a single father with full custody. \n\nAbout 10 years ago my daughter went with her mother for the afternoon.  Her mother ended up getting in an argument with the grandmother and the police were called,  I was told to come and get my daughter.  \n\nA few days later,  a DCF worker showed up at my house unannounced, to perform an inspection.  I was up until 5am the night before working on my website and I crashed from exhaustion on the couch.  When I woke up to him knocking at the door at 8am,  my eyes were severely bloodshot (happens all the time when tired or don't sleep). I answered the door and could immediately tell this dude was on some sort of power trip.  He accused me of being careless for letting my daughter go to her mother's place and pointed out his empty car seat to let me know it's for taking kids.  He then asked about the vehicles in front of my house,  there was an Escalade on 28\"rims,  a hummer all decked out,  bmw 850i v12 and my lincoln.  He warned me that if i'm selling drugs,  I would have my kid taken away.  I explained to him that I don't sell drugs or use them,  and that I had a vehicle marketing business which always kept a rotation of custom or high end cars in my possession.  He made a comment about my red eyes and once again pointed at his empty car seat.  Then asked if he could come in and told me a refusal would most certainly cause them to take my kid away.  \n\nImmediately once inside,  he points towards an arts and crafts project on the dining room table.  It was beans, rice and flowers glued to a piece of construction paper.  I had just framed it.  He thought it was a tray of marijuana and accused me of lying about drug use.  I laughed at him and pointed out his mistake.  At this point I knew this dude was unfit to be doing his job and relied heavily on intimidation to have some sort of power over people.  \n\nThen I showed him my daughter's room,  she was still sleeping.  He really didn't have much to say except that I kept a clean place and that there would be one more surprise visit before that could close the case.  Then he mentioned his empty car seat and his ability to take kids for the 3rd time before leaving.  \n\nAs soon as he left,  I called my aunt who is the director of a child welfare nonprofit.  She is incredibly connected!  I explained to her my anger and frustration with the morning.  I said \"for someone that is so concerned with my daughter's welfare,  enough to threaten me multiple times,  he didn't once look in the fridge to see if there was food,  he didn't check her dresser to see if she had clean clothes and he never checked to see if she had a toothbrush\" \n\nI'm not sure what happened to that guy,  but I never saw him again and the case was closed after a phone call.  I remember that day being so stressful.  I have done everything I can to stay off that radar.  \n\nJust figured I would share\n\nSorry if there are typos.

I appreciate you sharing your story. I think it's every single Dad's greatest fear.\nMashedPotatoh: It was such a weird experience.  It made me feel powerless and for a while I felt like a shit dad for allowing it to happen.  I feel bad for those who get caught in circumstances and have to deal with organizations that can take your kids. Those shirts were a bad idea,  hard to believe all 8 of them went along with it\nslipkid223: \"It made me feel powerless\"\nThat's exactly how the system was designed.

Once a person has your online profile they could easily steal your identity, very few cases of identity theft occur from this blatant of a level of [ignorance](http:\/\/www.wired.com\/2010\/05\/lifelock-identity-theft\/). \n\nLet's pretend that the majority of people you know are in some way accessible on social media and for the sake of this post let's pretend they post about their lives. Some of the most regularly used security questions for password reminders are as follows:\n\n* \"Where did you meet your spouse?\"\n* \"What school did you attend in __ grade?\"\n* \"In what city were you born?\"\n* \"What is your oldest sibling\u2019s birthday month and year?\"\n* \"What was your first pets name?\"\n* \"Who was your childhood best friend?\"\n\nNow, how many of those answers do you think could readily be found on a person's Facebook? People like to get worked up when they feel their privacy is being encroached upon but they never stop to think about how much more information that they themselves make available in the first place. Let's say that there are people that exist whom have an excessive amount of free time at their disposal that they spend on the internet. Hypothetically, of course, these people could use information from your Facebook to gain access to change your Facebook password. How much more personal information would they be able to acquire from your privacy settings, private messages or from pretending to be you and messaging friends from your account? Maybe you're smarter than that and a person wouldn't be able to get your password through those means, they could always go the password cracker route. The best advice I could give someone is to:\n\n* Answer a security question in only a way you would know, example: \"In what city did you meet your spouse?\" Answered with \"Neil Degrasse Tyson\". Clearly that isn't the answer to the question, but the only thing that matters is that is is an answer that you will remember.\n* Make a secure password. This should be a no-brainer but a lot of the time I am fixing a person's computer they utilize a very basic password. Do not use words followed by numbers or vice versa and for the love of god do not use a single password for everything. Lets say you use 'password1234', you could make a couple of changes to make that a lot harder to crack. First lets capitalize a letter making it 'passWord1234', then we could rearrange the number placement to '12pass34Word', we could also add a space before so it would be ' 12pass34Word' and finally you could make this universal revolving password by changing it to ' 12pass34Wo*le*' for Google or ' 12pass34Wo*er*' for Twitter.\n\nNow you may run into a couple of sites that do not allow for a space in the password but even without it you should be able to remember your password formula. You may not use your computer for more than Instagram but you need to understand that there are plenty of people that do, some of which want your information and could use that information as a stepping stone towards stealing your identity. It takes no time at all to create a new e-mail account, I would recommend having a separate e-mail address for your personal use and for social media. Beyond changing your security questions, password and using a different e-mail address you could always not use your name on social media, \"John Smth\" could be \"John the Great\". I wanted to test the strength of the password used in the [example](http:\/\/i.imgur.com\/dMjX2e3.png).\n\nTaken from [consensualtechs.blogspot.com](http:\/\/consensualtechs.blogspot.com\/) \npacylap: damn, i just tested my password on [howsecureismypassword](https:\/\/howsecureismypassword.net\/) and only got 5 years..

The goal of this feature is to discourage bandwagon voting, and hopefully encourage the voting of comments on their merit rather than being influenced by the public support of the comment. Just as posts have their scores obscured for the first hour, the same is happening with comments now. It's to encourage you to read the comment and vote on it with impartiality, rather than skim it and then vote with the crowd.\nIdeally this will level the playing field for high quality comments that are submitted later than immediately after a post is first submitted, and as opposed to 'contest mode', this doesn't randomize sorting (top comments will still be at the top, just with the count obscured), and doesn't hide child comment chains either.\n\n-Announcement by \/u\/Deimorz April 29 2013\n-Original Mod Post, April 30 2013\n\nAlso, don't feed the trolls.\nMcNeese: I'm on mobile and can see them.\n\nIs that a thing?\nvendetta2115: It hides them for an hour, supposedly.

I always try but don't expect a good outcome. Well, I found out that while the person I tried to save died, they were an organ donor and gave 5 people another chance at life. Without prehospital care this may have not been possible. I never really thought about this, I can still make a difference trying even if it's not that I save the life in front of me. \n\nIf any of you don't think CPR is worth trying, please think about the other possibilities and get yourself certified.\n\nThank you for reading.\nsoleoblues: And sometimes?

CPR kept his blood moving and oxygenated so the EMTs had something to work with\u2014and he had no brain damage, even tho I did CPR for eight minutes before the EMTs arrived (they worked on him for a good hour total, including in-ambulance time).\n\nHe was my BF at the time; dude put a ring on it after I saved his life. \n\nYou absolutely never know. Call 911, do CPR. Always. \nappropriateinside: Rule #1 of cardiac arrest. Chest compressions, immediately, don't stop. If you're getting tired, suck through it or find someone else to take over and cycle. Saves lives.\npuncakes: Do they not alternate with breathing anymore? It's compressions all the way?\nsmurfe: If you do good compression you actually passively ventilate a person. When you push down it will create positive pressure inside the chest and pushes air out. When your compression is released it creates a negative pressure within the chest and air will move in to equalize. \n\nAs a paramedic, if I find a patient in cardiac arrest and no one is ventilating the patient, it will be 8 minutes before we begin ventilating the patient. \n\nSo, if you ever run across this situation, please do compressions. Place your hands over the center of the chest on the breastbone. Press down about 2 inches. It is further than you think. Don't do it like you see on TV. Push hard and push fast. Not too fast though. 100 to 120 times a minute.\n\nIf you are in a place where there might be an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) have someone get it and use it as soon as it arrives. Just turn it on and follow the voice prompts step by step. This gives the person the greatest chance of survival if the device is available and their heart is in a rhythm that is shockable.  \nBot_Metric: 2.0 inch = 5.1 centimetres\n\n\n\n^(I'm a bot.

Try to keep keep eye contact with where the driver\/pilot would sit so they know you're after their attention. \n\nRepeat this SLOW flapping until they stop. If you stop early, they might think all is well and drive off. \n\nThis works because it's almost never seen anywhere in the wild where there ISN'T an emergency. And, as such, you're INSTANTLY noticeable.\nRufusLoudermilk: The signal you describe is maritime, not universal.\nCrow2638: I recently saw something about the Help Sign (like for the deaf) where you lightly tap someone, keep your arms by your side, then hold your right hand open with your palm behind you, then move your thumb into the center of your palm, and then wrap your fingers up around your thumb, all in one smooth motion.

This might vary depending on when your lease originated. Don't take my word, this is just for anyone to be aware... do some research to see if this also applies to you.\n\nA few things to point out as many of you mentioned, this is for car leases in the US (maybe also in Canada?), but it might not apply to some of you in the UK or other countries.\n\nIf you want to buy it back, call the financial company you leased from, they will tell you the exact buyback amount as opposed to the dealer who will try to get you back in the office, you might be able to do all transactions directly with them to avoid the dealership shenanigans.\n\nVerify the law in the state you're in regarding taxes. I live in Texas and taxes are paid fully when you originate the lease, you do not have to pay taxes again when you buy it out (another good reason to buy it back) Keep in mind this might be different in other states.\n\nOne last thing, the used car market is changing fast, this might not be relevant 6 months from now.\n\n​\n\nI hope this helps!\nCornInMyPancakes: I am in this position currently and unsure of our best move.

I come here looking for guidance from professionals that know.\nbadchad65: The buyout will be listed in your lease paperwork.\n\nOnce you identify the buyout, you need to estimate your equity buy predicting a sale price.  An easy way to get an offer is through carvana or carmax.  In 3 minutes you can enter your vehicle info and they'll send you an offer.\n\nYou can use these values to estimate your equity.  The challenge is getting a handle on the price of a new vehicle.\nCornInMyPancakes: Thank you very much for the guidance!\nbadchad65: I'm in the same boat.  I'm leasing a toyota Camry and the lease ends in about 4 months.  My lease buyout is roughly 16k but carvana and carmax have offered me roughly 29k.\n\nMy biggest challenge is trying to determine the cost of a new vehicle either through leasing or buying.  I can use my wife's car for a bit so I was mulling over trying to wait until summer for car prices to go down.\nCornInMyPancakes: For a $13k profit, I will put her in a 1986 Honda Accord and she can tie the seatbelt in a knot!\nSlyck1677: This. \n\nIf you have to lease something you probably shouldn't be driving it in the first place. Same with a loan, but more specifically if you can't pay it off at any point in time.\nwarbeforepeace: Leases make sense for a lot of circumstances. I lease because I like to change cars every couple years and it\u2019s cheaper to do that with a lease majority of the time. Also I avoid any major maintenance or repairs because I don\u2019t have the car long enough.\ncutestain: Right. Just not financial sense.\nNikxed: Coming from someone who's family is not savvy mechanically and has never had the money for a \"higher end\" car, it seems like it's been cheaper since we've been leasing (a Nissan Sentra every 3 years) compared to buying whatever used car we could find\/afford and keeping it on the road with trips to the shop as things broke to a point where it doesn't make sense and it's new used car time.\n\nAll the costs are known beforehand and can be budgeted for starting years ahead of time (like the lease signing due). We're on our third lease now (about 7.5 years since we stopped buying used) and the maintenance costs are minimal...a trip to the dealership ever 5k miles that is partially covered in the lease. \n\nOverall I think we're on track to spend the a less money in the 9 years of 3 leases than we did in the previous 9 years on used cars and fixing them. Plus it's more predictable from a financial level as well as a \"well the car won't start so I can't get to work today\" level since it never breaks down.\n\nIf you have the skills or connections and don't have to pay the labor cost of maintaining a used car as things break I bet it's a much better deal.\n\nAm I missing something? Other than not being able to personally repair my car. We switched to a lease after we financially recovered from a ~1200$ repair involving the axil (??? or something related to how the wheel stays on the car) that we had to pay because we couldn't find anything to buy in our very low (pretty much the repair cost- it was already more than we could comfortably handle but sacrifices were made) budget.\n\nEver since swapped to lease no more random multiple-hundred dollar repairs or occasionally 1000+.\n\nSorry this post got long I just wanted to thoroughly explain my situation...if I'm Doing It Wrong I'm all ears because money is so tight haha.\nPJ_GRE: How come you\u2019re buying such shitty used cars that are breaking down, but can lease good cars that don\u2019t? Is the price of a lease really similar to a beat up used car?\nNikxed: A newer Nissan Sentra is indeed a 'nice car' but it's on the lower end of the array of cars you can lease. Our price per month is very low- about $148 per month now and the first one was $129 per month, significantly cheaper than a loan paying off a financed \"nicer\" used car. The money necessary for the lease signing including fees and taxes is in the lower thousands and is saved up over time.\n\nGetting a non-junker used car- meaning one that is less likely to break down but also expensive enough that we need to finance it through the bank instead of outright buying a shitter car which is similar to the lease signing payment. This would skip the large payment of the lease signing but is a larger monthly payment as well as having the potential issues with repair that a new car (thus far) hasn't. \n\nThe car that needed the $1200 repair I mentioned was such a car and the one we'd had the longest compared to when we had to buy junkers and try to keep them running. The large bills involving repairs starting coming pretty much around the time the loan payments ended.\n\nOther things that add up include long term car maintenance things like tires...I haven't bought tires since the leasing started. Turn it in with the ones it came with.\n\n> Is the price of a lease really similar to a beat up used car?\n\nSo to fully answer your question, the price of leasing a new sentra every 3 years has *personally to my family* averaged out to be a little less- but practically similar- to the cost of having middle-to-lower quality used cars that require semi-frequent repairs. User error may apply as always that's just my story.\n\nBeing able to buy a nicer used car- like a lease that was just turned in or something- may be a different story? Seems like you have to have a lot more money up front or be able to soak the higher loan payment though.\nPJ_GRE: Sounds like it makes sense and works for your situation then! It\u2019s a tradeoff, lower monthly payments, but you\u2019re paying in perpetuity. I love not having monthly payments, even if an expensive repair comes every once in a while.\nNikxed: You're right I'm definitely trading a perpetual monthly payment for (almost) no repairs.\n","num_messages":17,"avg_score":585.3529411765,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0357,"11":0.0312,"12":0.0282,"13":0.0262,"14":0.025,"15":0.0237,"2":0.349,"3":0.2188,"4":0.1552,"5":0.1076,"6":0.0772,"7":0.0581,"8":0.048,"9":0.0397},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.006,"3":0.0547,"4":0.0192,"5":0.012,"6":0.0108,"7":0.0096,"8":0.0084,"9":0.0072},"special_characters_ratio":0.2291827506,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.5282112845,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":566.4}

I explain inside.\nI wrote this explanation in another thread, where I argued for why having 12 fingers is more useful than having 10 fingers when it comes to counting. I then realised that I might as well post it here:\n\nEach of your fingers has a value. If your finger is up, it is worth its value. If it is down, it is worth 0. Your finger is worth 2^x where x is the finger's position. Thus, if you hold out both your hands in fist, you have 0. If you then put up your right thumb (I count from right to left since I am right handed, but you can do the opposite if you so wish), you get 1 since your thumb is worth 2^0. If you only put up your right index finger, you get 2^1 = 2. If you only put up your middle finger (ie flipping the bird), you get 2^2 = 4. The question now becomes, what about 3? Well, this is where it gets interesting. To get 3, you put up both your thumb AND your index finger, creating 2^0(1) + 2^1(2) = 3. And when you count to 5, you do your middle finger + thumb. 6 is middle finger + index finger, ie 2^2(4)+2^1(2). It goes on, and by this way you can count up to 1023. \n\nProtip: If you want to get a number that is one less than a finger, you simply have to bring up all the fingers that are before it. For example, to get 7 you put up your first, second and third fingers (1+2+4). 8 is simply the fourth finger up and all the fingers before it down (0+0+0+8) :)\n\nHere's a diagram I just drew:\nhttp:\/\/i.imgur.com\/qHkns.png\n\n**TLDR**: Each of your fingers has a given value, corresponding to 2^x where the first finger is 2^0 and the last is 2^9. If your finger is down, it is worth 0. If it is up, it is worth its value. If you have more than one finger up, the value is a sum of those fingers' respective values. Tip: begin by clenching your hands in fists and having the back of your hands pointing away from you.\n\n(By now you should know why having 12 fingers allows you to count up to 4095)\nrefinedbyfire: But...should I really know this?\nlaffmakr: If you like to entertain at parties you should.\n","num_messages":3,"avg_score":1.0,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0707,"11":0.0622,"12":0.055,"13":0.0503,"14":0.0455,"15":0.0431,"2":0.3448,"3":0.2501,"4":0.2007,"5":0.1612,"6":0.1288,"7":0.1069,"8":0.0917,"9":0.0779},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.1741,"4":0.0952,"5":0.0531,"6":0.0266,"7":0.0107,"8":0.0053,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2874821514,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.6456692913,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":563.7}

I agree that the for-profit model of healthcare is absolutely contradictory to the concept of public health; however, there should always be clear boundaries between what we *can* do and what we *should* do. Leaving kids to starve in our own neighborhoods while we pay doctors to make babies in test tubes seems contradictory to the concept of civil society in the modern age. If, and only if, we have the ability and wherewithal to do both, I'm all for it. But let's first focus on helping the kids (and adults) who are alive to live well, then we can start thinking about making some test tube babies. Agreed?\npbredd:  Not entirely no.  Judging by wait time for adoption there is plent of demand there.  So much so in fact that they place a lot of restrictions on who can and cannot adopt..  The simple fact is that it cannot be a state by state matter...  People shouldn't  e left out of these sorts of opportunities simply because the state they live in makes it nearly impossible to afford ivf and other reproductive needs.  I am all for helpIng the less fortunate but saying that people shouldn't be able to produce their own offspring is almost inthInkable.  You seem to show some bias against the process simply by the fact you refer to these children as test tube babies ..\nTheShittyBeatles: I think we disagree on the fundamental concept of procreation and whether it is essential for personal health or optional. I believe that, in the context of modern society, the need for universal individual childbearing is entirely optional. I assume that you believe that it is essential. I do not know enough about the issue to say whether one view or the other is right, and I would be open to the idea that bearing a child and being a parent is essential to personal health, but I just don't know. \n\nIt is a very good discussion and one that deserves some robust consideration. In fact, this type of debate is what should be going on at the level of public health policy and not some inane discussion about whether or not the government should provide healthcare. I think there are a lot of medical procedures and technologies that we should be providing to all of our people at no cost to the individual. Maybe IVF is one, maybe not. But we need to focus our collective will to get everyone on board with universally-available healthcare and then work out the details.\n\nI think we probably have a lot more in common about our views on healthcare and I don't want to aggravate an argument between us when I don't know enough to make a definite decision and I think we're allies in the general debate over healthcare. I'm really glad you're passionate about this, and that's what makes me stop and think about your position carefully. Sorry if I caused any offense. You sound well-spoken and educated on these issues, and I respect that a lot.\npbredd: Believe me i totally respect your viewpoint.  For me, this isn't about universal healthcare really but more a states versus federal goverment control for certain things like coverage of different proceedures like IVF.  I think it is hard for me to reconcile between some things that are considered essential for health and other things which could be questionable.\nI don't know what the fix is but i have a hard time with the idea of individual state rights for certain larger issues..\n\nThanks for your participation, I really appreciate it!\n","num_messages":7,"avg_score":6.2857142857,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0415,"11":0.0382,"12":0.0354,"13":0.034,"14":0.0319,"15":0.0251,"2":0.3193,"3":0.1892,"4":0.1445,"5":0.0977,"6":0.0729,"7":0.0574,"8":0.0502,"9":0.0471},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0354,"4":0.0082,"5":0.0027,"6":0.0,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2038380529,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.535326087,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":364.7}

This is why you should always make sure the restaurant knows about your dietary limitations in advance, especially if you are vegan or vegetarian. If you wait to notify the restaurant you are vegan\/vegetarian untill you sit down to eat, chances are the meat that would be served to you has already been prepped and can't be saved for another customer another day. A great habit that will prevent any meat from being wasted, undermining your commitment to a meat free diet, is to always make sure the restaurant knows in advance. Most online reservation tools will ask about dietary limitations automatically. A vegetarian diet should be mentioned there. When making reservations through the phone most restaurants will have the habit to ask about diets but they can forget, especially during  busy hours. A little effort could save literally the entire staff of the restaurant from a headache and, of course, save food from being wasted.\n\nTL;DR if you wait to tell a restaurant you don't eat meat untill you sit down to eat you're probably too late and food that had already been prepped will be wasted. Make sure to notify them ahead of time even if they forget to ask.\nArekai4098: I genuinely don't understand. I'm ordering stuff that doesn't have meat to begin with. What meat is being wasted? I'm not seeing where meat even enters the equation.\ngiant_dutchman: Yes if you order a meal without meat at a restaurant which has a menu with options to choose from you're completely fine. However some of the fancier restaurants that serve anywhere from 5 to 8 courses need time to prepare all the food in advance to the customer showing up. Which is why they'll employ a fixed menu. They'll prep that menu for the amount of customers that have made reservations that day. So if you plan on going to a restaurant like that it's in your interest to notify them you're vegan when making reservations. Otherwise they'll start prepping meat thinking your order will not have to be modified. \n\nI hope I didn't over explain it now. You made a fair point so I just wanted to make sure I covered it.\njrazz80: This doesn\u2019t sound like a very common problem.\ngiant_dutchman: It happens multiple times in a week at the place I work at. In my opinion it shouldn't have to happen once.\njrazz80: Sure, it\u2019s a common problem in your world.  But not common at all in the rest of the world.\nTrailMomKat: Pretty sure his world is real, just as yours is, with its own unique experiences and everything. Just like the rest of us.\n\n No reason to be a jerk when he's simply trying to say \"hey, this happens sometimes and if you're trying to keep your footprint small, do this to save waste and time.\"\njrazz80: You\u2019re right.  We should just call this sub \n\nr\/YSKIYAGTTGRBRWATOOT\n\nYou should know if you are going to this guy\u2019s restaurant but really what are the odds of that\nTrailMomKat: Are you ok? I mean that in a genuine fashion, just asking. Just want to know if you're usually this cynical or if you're having a bad day. You'll probably just think I'm being snarky for even asking, but if you're having a bad day I'm sorry and I hope it gets better.\njrazz80: Lol, I mean probably not.  \n\nI didn\u2019t really think I was being that cynical to point out that this YSK is way too specific to be of any use at all and if it\u2019s a real problem for him then it\u2019s maybe something that should be told to people making reservations at his specific restaurant.  \n\nBut, maybe I\u2019m disassociating at taking it out on a fellow redditor.\nTrailMomKat: Hey you're not completely wrong, I just see his post as something I learned from. I didn't even know they prep all those meals in advance and whatnot, but now I know. Even if the YSK if pretty niche, I look at it as a TIL. You pointing out the obvious really just doesn't add anything to the conversation other than coming off as a bit of a jerk. Anyways, for what it's worth, I hope you're good; I wasn't trying to come off as a jerk myself and I apologize if I did.\n","num_messages":11,"avg_score":13.0,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0546,"11":0.0504,"12":0.0441,"13":0.0392,"14":0.0359,"15":0.0338,"2":0.3059,"3":0.1936,"4":0.1454,"5":0.111,"6":0.0907,"7":0.0769,"8":0.067,"9":0.0593},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0716,"4":0.0352,"5":0.0209,"6":0.0105,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2169435993,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.5454545455,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":404.8}

East Asians report more negative emotions than European Americans but have lower levels of anxiety and depression.\n[removed]\nPM_DEM_CHESTS: Doesn\u2019t South Korea and Japan have very high suicide rates?\nEuropapa1: It reflects the fact that the level of competitiveness is much higher than in the Western world. A satisfying grade in the West could be considered mediocre in Asia. Look at data about population density by country. Most East Asia countries rank high, which implies rat race has continued since they were born. Living a stressful life for survival in a competitive society leads to a high level of suicide rate.\nPM_DEM_CHESTS: Yes, but this would indicate levels of anxiety and depression are not lower as stated by OPs post.\nEuropapa1: The article has been removed. I can not double-check it anymore.\nPM_DEM_CHESTS: You can just look at OPs title to see that\u2019s what they were trying to prove with their article\nEuropapa1: I assume that it was gauged by different, personal standards. Respondents have a wide variety of concepts of depression.  Consequently, Asians do not believe that they have a mental issue.\nPM_DEM_CHESTS: Yes, I am aware of that. What I am pointing out is that op states they have lower levels of anxiety and depression and while they may perceive that is so, the suicide rates seem to indicate otherwise.\nEuropapa1: It has to do with what they are not fully aware that they already have depression due to the different definitions of depression. So the wrong response results in misinterpretation.\nPM_DEM_CHESTS: I don\u2019t understand what you are arguing with me about. OP specifically stated in his post that this is not an issue of perception or how we define anxiety or depression but to specifically state that Asian countries have lower levels. My original post was to demonstrate that I don\u2019t think that\u2019s true. Now you\u2019re here telling me that it might be because they define it differently or because they have a more competitive culture. That is irrelevant to my point and goes against what OP was originally stating.\nEuropapa1: How do you tell that Asian countries have a lower level of anxiety and stress? Probably the experimenter would ask Asians to respond to the questions. And in this process, Asians had misconceived the meaning of anxiety, consequently, few of them replied that they have anxiety issues. This could be misconstrued by the researcher and leads to a skewed conclusion. In reality, Asians possibly have a high level of stress by western standards.\nPM_DEM_CHESTS: Yes. This is exactly what I originally stated disputing OPs argument. This conversation is going nowhere so this is my last comment.\nEuropapa1: I think you got me wrong because you presume that they admit their life is stressful, subsequently, they should acknowledge their depression correspondingly.

Its symptoms include a runny nose, cough, sore throat, headache and a fever that can last for a couple of days.\nFor those with a weakened immune system, the elderly and the very young, there's a chance the virus could cause a lower, and much more serious, respiratory tract illness like a pneumonia or bronchitis. \n\n#**How does it spread**\n\nTransmission between humans happens when someone comes into contact with an infected person's secretions, such as droplets in a cough.\nDepending on how virulent the virus is, a cough, sneeze or handshake could cause exposure. The virus can also be transmitted by coming into contact with something an infected person has touched and then touching your mouth, nose or eyes. Caregivers can sometimes be exposed by handling a patient's waste, according to the CDC.\nThe virus appears to mainly spread from person to person.\n\"People are thought to be most contagious when they are most symptomatic (the sickest),\" the CDC says. \"Some spread might be possible before people show symptoms; there have been reports of this occurring with ... coronavirus, but this is not thought to be the main way the virus spreads.\"\n\n#**How is it treated**\n\nThere is no specific antiviral treatment, but research is underway.\nMost of the time, symptoms will go away on their own and experts advise seeking care early. If symptoms feel worse than a standard cold, see your doctor. Doctors can relieve symptoms by prescribing a pain or fever medication. The CDC says a room humidifier or a hot shower can help with a sore throat or cough.\nPeople with coronavirus should receive supportive care to help relieve symptoms. In some severe cases, treatment includes care to support vital organ functions, the CDC says.\nPeople who think they may have been exposed to the virus should contact their healthcare provider immediately.\n\n#**How long is the incubation period**\n\nQuarantine is usually set up for the incubation period -- the span of time during which people have developed illness after exposure. For coronavirus, the period of quarantine is 14 days from the last date of exposure, because 14 days is the longest incubation period seen for similar illnesses\n\n#**How can you can prevent it**\n\nThere is no vaccine to protect against it, at least not yet.\nThe US National Institutes of Health is working on a vaccine but it will be months until clinical trials get underway and more than a year until it might become available.\nMeanwhile, you may be able to reduce your risk of infection by avoiding people who are sick. Cover your mouth and nose when you cough or sneeze, and disinfect the objects and surfaces you touch.\n\nAvoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth. Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.\nAwareness is also key.

Sooner or later, there's going to be something you find on some far away craigslist or some other forum and the problem of not getting screwed comes up.  They say to deal locally, which you should, and of course all the Western Union, MoneyGram, GreenDot, scams are pretty obvious at face value, but I've actually done this, and recommended it to several of my friends who have used it.\n\nIn my case recently, it was 2 $400 tickets to Burning Man, so $75 of insurance on $800 is cheap.\n\nHere's how it works: You find said guy that says he has some item.  You find a private investigator in his city, tell them your story, and ask them to be your hands in the deal, or to go photograph the item or whatever it is you want.  They're used to dealing with shady people and are typically pretty smart.\n\nHere's my recent deal:\n\nGuy wanted to be paid MoneyGram (RED FLAG) for 2 tickets, but had a convincing story, sent me pictures of himself and his ID, and seemed legit.  I called up a PI, told him to go look at the tickets, that it would be obvious if they were fake, see that the guy is who he says they are.  If it checks out, I'd moneygram the cash within minutes.  The seller could verify it on his phone and we'd all be cool.  You can usually pay the PI's with a credit card, and if you want to pay the seller with a money order (or certified check or something), you can mail it to the PI and have him pay the seller with it.  Then you have the PI mail you the item.  For a friend of mine, it was, \"go look see if the boat she sent me pictures of actually exists.\"\n\nAlso, the moment you mention a private investigator, scammers tend to go away.\n\nSince PI's are licensed, their license (and source of income) are on the line if the PI tries to screw you.\nbackspacez: Burning Man costs FOUR HUNDRED DOLLARS?

One could make the argument that it is unethical to spend a disproportionate amount of research on a disease with a light burden, and in fact, most government agencies decide how to allocate funds based on burden.\n\nYet, in science the quest for knowledge is usually more significant that the solution to a specific problem; we have no idea what future technologies could be based on this research, so it would be foolish to denounce it as a waste of money better spent elsewhere.

It was some broken adapter my mom's friend gave to me. She didn't feel like fixing it, so she gave it to me assuming that I could fix it.

You could say that my mom's friend paid for part of it, but it wasn't my money.\nepichigh: That is also wrong since you were the one spending it. Everyone downvoting and explaining this to you is clearly making no effect. You did not get those headphones for 50 bucks. Either think about the actual cost or just carry on. I'm done though. \npalerthanrice: It was never my money. Think of it as a gift.\nemsenn0: At which point, it became your money.  Like... seriously, stop replying for a second, and think about what is being said here.\n\nSo, I give you a thing, that you take someplace, and they give you $20 for it.  And then you use that $20, and $50 from your wallet, to buy a thing.\n\nDid that thing cost $70, or $50?\n\n(Hint: this isn't a subjective thing, it is basic math.  There *is* only one right answer.)\npalerthanrice: I see your logic, but I still disagree. I don't see the credit given to me as ever being mine. I also had no interest in buying anything else from the apple store with the credit. My mom's friend paid for part of it while I paid for the rest. Again, I would've never used the store credit on anything else in the store, so instead of keeping the money, I would've lost it all together. From an accounting standpoint, you are correct. But from a logical standpoint, you are wrong. \nemsenn0: Yeah, no, accounting done that way because it is the logical way to handle money.  Not trying to be an asshat, but you should learn some about basic accounting if you don't agree.\npalerthanrice: I don't consider the money mine. An accountant would. There. I know basic accounting, and just because I disagree with what it would claim doesn't make me wrong. The store credit was useless unless it went toward the headphones. Therefore it didn't even exist for me until I spent $50. That's how I view it. An accountant would disagree, but they're thinking strictly numbers. \n","num_messages":17,"avg_score":97.5294117647,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0586,"11":0.0517,"12":0.0454,"13":0.0404,"14":0.0376,"15":0.035,"2":0.3053,"3":0.1925,"4":0.1459,"5":0.1116,"6":0.0881,"7":0.0784,"8":0.0722,"9":0.0646},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.084,"4":0.0415,"5":0.022,"6":0.0122,"7":0.0073,"8":0.0025,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2374892148,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.5759416768,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":474.8}

Microchips would not only have your contact information, but also the information of the group who implanted it. This adds another way to reach you if the microchip does not have accurate contact information since microchip providers often have a file on you and your pet, especially veterinarians. Veterinary software can also be used to search their own medical records to see if the microchip number matches data with one of their patients. Additionally, there are databases that you can submit an alert for a missing pet, adding another method to get the message out to people to help find them. In general, the more ways you spread the message of your missing pet (animal control, local vet hospitals, neighborhood\/local community forums, etc.), the better your chances of finding your pet.\n\nMicrochips are also required for international travel, specifically the 15 digit ISO compatible microchips (not all microchips used in the US are ISO compatible). This is mainly so there is no issues with microchip scanners. If your pet does not have a compatible chip, an additional ISO microchip could be implanted, which will need to be documented (both microchips) and you would need to keep both chips updated. Alternatively, though it is more expensive, there are countries that allow you to bring a microchip scanner that can scan your pet if they do not have an international microchip. If you do plan to microchip your pet for travel, make sure to document when they received their microchip as countries have regulation that require knowing when a microchip was implanted.\n\nFor more information on traveling with a pet from the US, you may refer to the [APHIS USDA website](https:\/\/www.aphis.usda.gov\/aphis\/pet-travel\/take-pet-to-foreign-country\/export-pets) that will provide details information on different countries. Countries that are rabies frees, especially islands (and Hawaii), have very strict regulations that often require a year to go through the process before travel.\n\nAnother benefit for microchips that I don\u2019t see much talk about is proof of ownership. Having a microchip with your information tied to it is basically a form of identification for your pet and who their owner is. Microchips cannot be removed the same way ID tags can be. If there is a situation of pet theft, a microchip will make it clear you are the owner versus who ever is trying to claim your pet. Most microchip databases require proof of ownership before changing any information if the microchip has already been registered. These situations can especially happen with indoor\/outdoor cats as people often claim to \u201crescue\u201d them. In practice, when microchipping a pet, the animal is scanned prior to implantation to confirm there is no microchip present. If a microchip is found, it is required to follow up on why they have one before making further decisions. If one is found and ignored, everyone involved could be sued since pets are considered property. \n\nFinally, if your pets are already microchipped, make sure the information is up to date. It is good practice to scan the microchip periodically\/annually to make sure the microchip is active. Though it\u2019s not common, microchip can fail or be difficult to find. Microchips are implanted between the shoulder blades of dogs and cats but can travel to weird places in the subcutaneous space (the space between the skin and muscle) which is why the whole body is scanned starting at the neck. If the microchip cannot be scanned, an additional microchip can be implanted. If this happens, make sure to keep both up to date in case the someone manages to scan the older microchip.\n\nIf you are not sure if a microchip is registered or who it is registered with, you can use the [AHAA universal microchip search](https:\/\/www.aaha.org\/your-pet\/pet-microchip-lookup\/microchip-search\/) as it will search all available databases and show you if the microchip is registered and where it is registered to. If you have a found pet and microchip number, you can also use this site to contact the database for the owners contact information.\n\nI wanted to post this because I ran into a situation working at an animal hospital where someone claimed to rescue a stray cat. Turned out this cat was a much loved pet that wandered too far from his home and was missing for months because the finders had taken him into their house. They assumed this cat was neglected and was upset when they found out he was a lost pet. If it wasn\u2019t for that microchip, these people would have effectively stolen  this cat as they never intended to try to find the owner. In fact, they had tried to convince us to let them keep the cat through emotional manipulation. And this isn\u2019t even the first time I\u2019ve seen this exact same situation. I have also seen cats that are clearly someone\u2019s pet get stolen because there was no way to prove they were wanted pets (no ID).\n\nMicrochip your pets and keep it up to date!\n\nEdit: This information is mainly for the US as there are no laws about microchipping pets at a federal level. The only law I could find state-wise is California, but the law only requires public shelter and animal control to implant a microchip in all dogs\/cats that don\u2019t have one before being released\/adopted to their owners. Based on the comments, there are mandatory laws in many countries, so make sure to check your local laws regarding microchips.\n\nA great time to microchip your pets are during spay\/neuter. This takes advantage of the anesthetic procedure since they would not feel the needle and makes it easier to implant the microchip. However, microchips can be implanted awake as well with no issues.\n\nOne of the comments also reminded me of another benefit with microchips too. There are pet doors that can be programmed to only open when it scans your pet specific microchip, such as an indoor\/outdoor cat without worrying about another animal coming in. There are also auto feeders that can scan microchips, which helps when you have multiple cats with one or all having specific dietary needs. These would prevent cats from stealing each other foods\n\nEdit 2: another comment made another point that look into local adoption centers or animal services\/shelters for microchips as they may offer a low cost or even free microchips for your pets.\n\nTLDR: Microchips are great at helping you find your lost pet. It is often required for travel to have an ISO compatible microchip. It can be used as proof of ownership. There are pet doors and auto feeders that can scan for microchip and make sure the right pet is using it. Make sure to keep the information updated and periodically check that the microchip is still working.\nijustlikeelectronics: Can we get a tldr rundown\nmofomo44: Sorry about that!

Certainly there are environmental risks, but I believe the benefit outweighs the risk in this case.\n\n> Here's an article from today illustrating his support of nuclear power.\n\nSupport of nuclear power was at one time far outside the environmental mainstream, but no longer.

That's his job now. Being hired by an industrial giant doesn't make him automatically wrong, it just gives him a potential conflict of interest.\n\nHis defense of APP is probably his most [controversial](http:\/\/www.guardian.co.uk\/environment\/georgemonbiot\/2010\/dec\/02\/sumatra-rainforest-destruction-patrick-moore) position.

(Nor is he an anthropogenic global warming denier.)\n[deleted]: Supporting Keystone XL is insane. The oil from tar sands wasn't even considered usable until the past decade or so and it takes so much energy to extract and refine ... it's nearly pointless.

But the facts are that aligning oneself with the corporate interests that Moore aligns himself with are at best counter-productive to the broad goals of the environmental movement. My point is that Moore continues to use his former allegiance with Greenpeace to make money by promoting the very industries that any serious observer can tell you are anathema to environmentalism. \nmarkedwords: > Nuclear is still dangerous.

About three weeks later I started having severe kidney pain and [urinary retention](http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Urinary_retention) issues.  I discovered that it was these pills that was causing it because I started researching online and came across that wikipedia article which states a cause of urinary retention is \"drugs with anticholinergic properties\" and I discovered that diphenhydramine is an anticholinergic drug.  I had to quit taking it and after a couple of days my kidney problems went away.

Physical activity is a drop in the ocean compared to controlling what you eat. Try to guesstimate your BMR\/TDEE and stick to a calorie limit for 2-3 weeks and readjust your limit based on the outcome.\n  \n>Would it be counter productive to lift in the morning and wrestle in the evening?\n\nCounter productive to what? Would you prefer to get better at wrestling, lifting weights, or losing weight? It's the same as the diet - do it for a while and if the one you're most interested with starts suffering, place less importance on it.

If you're not willing to spend 30 minutes reading a very clearly laid out helpful resource, and argue that we're not helping, I can pretty much bank any bets taken on whether you'll follow through on your fitness goals.\n\nAnd that gets my goat, because you'll be one of the people joining the legions of people claiming genetics or sugar for your weight.\n\nIn summary:  \nNot mad at you any more, don't really care, but you're going to fail if you keep being passive aggressive towards people who point you at useful resources.\n\nTake'r easy.\nSpoken_By_Her_Labia: It's very nice of you to take time out of your day and contribute to this subreddit as much as you seem to do for free. What's not so nice is thinking that doing that entitles you to a high horse. I got defensive when you started cursing at me because my failed understanding of the FAQ didn't line up with how you wanted me to see it. You really shouldn't ever get \"angry\" about anything strangers are posting on reddit. If anything, I come from a camp of ignorance, not of malice or troll. I didn't mean to hurt anyone with my post but I did have a lot of questions and advice and thought fitness might be a good place to get some personalized help.

I see a lot of people here talking as if 5x5 is the only way to get stronger, noobs do 5x5, you need strength or you wont progress. To be honest, Im tired of hearing it. If you are lifting, eating, and sleeping the best you can, you will see gains. The message we really need to send and talk about is linear progression. As your body adapts and grows stronger, the work must become more difficult to keep gaining. \n\n\nEdit: Ive left this as open ended as possible.

I honestly never had much success with a 5x5 program or a 5x12 program to be honest,  I have had a lot more success doing a 2x15-18 with much heavier weights.

Shouldn't i be fine by now??  \n\nEdit: i am cutting at the moment so my carbs are a bit low. Although i do eat beans, nuts, and a ton of fruits and vegetables a day. \nWhyAtlas: Have you been drinking water?  Your electrolytes may still be out of whack.  Theres several commercially available electrolyte replacements out there.\nQualityChild: I had at least 30 ounces today. I did drink an iced coffee before my workout though, could that dehydrate my body pretty quick? is that generally a good or bad idea to do before sprints? \nbmgvfl: While i would drink coffee or other stimulating beverages before lifting, i would not do it when i was going to perform any sports that really push my heartrate and blood pressure to the maximum.\nYou can artificially increase both maximum values which can put quite a strain on your body. \nThere are already four factors that might be the cause of your symptoms.\n1. Few carbs 2. A calorie deficit 3. caffeine 4.

The first week I had soreness, but since then I haven't had any issues. Despite this, I've been reading that it's best to work out no more than 3 times a week so your body has time to recover. To be clear, I don't mind working out every day at all, so if it's not hurting I'll continue doing that. However, I'm wondering if working out every day is negatively impacting any progress, and if so what I should do to change that? Thanks in advance for any help.\n\nEdit: Sorry, should give some background info, I'm skinny so looking to gain muscle but remain healthily active as well.\nMVMTH: Working out every day isn't bad (though I would recommend 1 or 2 days of rest at least). Working out the same body part however, not advised. You can get away with this for a little while, but eventually it'll catch up to you. Research 'over training'\n\nGet on a routine that involves strategically working out different muscle groups on each day. Doing a cycle like this will give a group of muscles ample time to rebuild while you work on the others.\n\nSince you're working out to add muscle and stay healthy overall, going balls to the wall every day of the week like the 30 yr old stated isn't necessarily ideal. Workout consistently and push heavy weight, but give your body rest so it can rebuild.\n\nI would do a little light jogging after your workouts 3 days out if the week, but don't go crazy with this since you're trying to build muscle.\n\nThat said, since you want to build muscle, your leg day should consist of squats and\/or deadlifts. These are great because they trigger the release of growth hormone and testosterone which are essential for building muscle.\n\nAlso, get some whey protein powder (not mass gainer) and drink a couple shakes each day. One of which should be after your workout.\n\nGoodluck\n\ndawhitesox14: Thanks, would working out back\/biceps, chest\/triceps, and shoulder\/legs (one group each day, then repeat) be a good plan? I am a bit confused after reading this from the FAQ though:\n\n\"For the first several months of weight training, beginners can expect to raise the weight they are lifting in a linear progression, without any increased rest time needed - this means you will get regularly stronger day after day.\n\nBeginners to weight training are defined by how quickly they can recover from exercise. For this reason, as a beginner, it is best to get as much work in as possible each week. If you do a full-body routine three times per week, that means you're training your entire body roughly 12 times per month (144 times per year). A body-part split, hitting different body parts over a week is going to train your whole body one (maybe two) times per week, which is 4-8 times per month (48-96 times per year).\"\nMVMTH: What is confusing about that? In the initial stages of training, you're placing your body under new stresses, and damaging tissues that it isn't used to having damaged. The body is a cool thing because when it sees this damage, it acts fast to repair and get you back to 100%. Eventually as you get accustomed to training, there is a little more time and energy involved to see increases.\n\nIf you ever play video games, think about Call of Duty online play. When you first start playing, you can level up numerous times in a week, but as you rise in rank, it starts taking a little more time to see the next stage. That's an interesting analogy that I came up with on the fly to sort of explain it, but I've got to catch a plane. I'll try to explain more later if you need help.\ndawhitesox14: That makes sense, but what I'm wondering is wouldn't it imply that I should be working out my whole body every day while I'm still new?\nMVMTH: You can if that's what you prefer.\n\nPersonally I like to isolate to develop muscles on my own schedule, but that's just my personal preference because I like being able to pay particular attention to developing particular groups.\n","num_messages":6,"avg_score":1.5,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.046,"11":0.0408,"12":0.0365,"13":0.0347,"14":0.028,"15":0.0216,"2":0.2981,"3":0.1755,"4":0.1357,"5":0.1066,"6":0.0834,"7":0.0692,"8":0.0612,"9":0.0524},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0295,"4":0.0148,"5":0.0054,"6":0.0027,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2231952663,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.506684492,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":396.0}

All of the people that knew me will tell me that I look better fat. Given that I lost fat on my face but it is just disheartening. T-T\nfletchydollas: Your body uses a number of calories a day no matter what you do, even if you spent all day on Netflix it would still burn this number of calories. We call this your \"total daily energy expenditure\" or TDEE for short. \n\n\nWhen we bulk we add more calories to this number so that despite working out, we gain weight. We usually do this by adding 500cal to our TDEE.\n\n\nDuring the process of the bulk we're looking to gain weight and provide our muscles with everything they need to grow, so a surplus of Fats Carbs and Protein. As such we will gain muscle mass and probably get quite soft too.\n\n\nOnce we've completed the bulk and seen those gains in our strength, we then begin a *cut*. This is even we drop 500 from our original TDEE to lean out and reduce body fat to show greater definition to those muscles you built during the bulk.\n\nIgnore the social pressure, its about how you wanna look. Tell them \"thanks but I'm happier this way\" \nArcusremiel08: Thanks. I think I get what your saying. So no matter what, I will be and get fat when bulking. (Thought there was a way to gain more muscles and less fat) Then, after the bulking phase, to get toned I should cut again. Right?\n\nThanks, I am always criticized that I look better fat. But I don't look sickly or weak.\nfletchydollas: Yeah pretty much. You can do a \"clean bulk\" where you just eat a fuck tonne of nutritious food, but as Dom jokes \"no one knows if they work, because no ones ever done one\".\n\nMost people tend to find bulking and cutting a more rewarding process\nArcusremiel08: What do you think about what u\/Idostuff12 said about gaining 1-1.5kg per month?   \n\nShould I just binge eat and not bother much the weight I will gain that I would just cut anyway?\nfletchydollas: Yeah I think they are spot on, 1-1.5 is a very reasonable amount to go for, it will help you get used to bulking and you'll be able to monitor your progress well in terms of strength gained vs weight gained. Make sure you are writing everything down. Make a spreadsheet with the date down the side, record body weight (always measured at the same time of day with the same amount of clothing) and what weights you lifted. \n\nIf you learn how to make a graph with the data, including a line if best fit, it'll be easy to see your rate of progress.\n\nEdit: I wouldn't binge eat, I'd gradually increase all portion sizes and not worry too much if you fancy a chocolate bar or whatever.

During a training block you accumulate fatigue and that's fine. If you hit a tiny tiny bit higher numbers after, let's say, 8 weeks of hard training that means you have progressed even under fatigue.

Coincidentally, around the same time I moved back home, I had bad lower back and hip pain from a year of squatting and deadlifting and felt like taking off time from doing those lifts anyways. After about four months of this, I got back in a commercial gym and started back squats. I found it pretty easy to hit 3 reps at 405 (easy as in, I moved the weight pretty well, and felt good to hit a few more sets afterwards). Previously, I\u2019d never hit 405 for more than one rep. I was wondering if it\u2019s possible that there was carryover from my Bulgarian split squats to my squat strength or if it is mainly just me experiencing good recovery from taking a 4 month break from the strain of back squats and deadlifts? My deadlift has not improved at all since the last time I did it several months ago, granted I performed the lift after squatting so there was some fatigue there, but again, my squat was great. \nmasturbatingwalruses: I'd assume injuries would have to be holding you back a shit ton for your squat to improve 10% after not doing any for several months. Did you do just, like, a billion lower back sets on top of the unilateral stuff or something? Most people the lower back limits the back squat, doing something that reduces load on a weak point for a long time tends to just exacerbate the issue.\njb0073x: That\u2019s why I am unsure haha. I would imagine that would be the case as well. The injuries weren\u2019t severe in the sense that I felt pain outside of the gym, it was really only when loading heavier weights so I felt it could have been just fatigue from not taking a break from heavy lifting for so long \nmasturbatingwalruses: 4 months is kind of way too long for shedding fatigue to outpace a massive strength loss from detraining imo. The most people ever peak for is a few weeks because the strength drop from dropping training volume is pretty linear down to baseline.\n","num_messages":4,"avg_score":3.5,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0451,"11":0.0446,"12":0.035,"13":0.0269,"14":0.0231,"15":0.0202,"2":0.2827,"3":0.1782,"4":0.1343,"5":0.1009,"6":0.0766,"7":0.0608,"8":0.0517,"9":0.0474},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0053,"4":0.0,"5":0.0,"6":0.0,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.214797136,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.5170603675,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":682.7}

Isn't volume arbitrary? In fact, isn't stressing your muscles, regardless of how, supposed to prevent muscle loss?\n[deleted]\nAlakazam: In fact, this does matter. \n\nAccording to Scientific Principles of Strength Training (great read for anybody who wants to know *why* programs are good), when it comes to lifting, volume is the primary driver of fatigue. On the other hand, when you're on a cut, you don't magically get less strong in the gym. More along the lines of *you're less capable of recovering from your workouts*, meaning you should try to train with generally *less fatigue*, and thus, lower overall volume on a deficit. \n\nWell, that handles the volume part. What about intensity? First of, intensity in this context is defined primarily as *weight on the bar*. Also, I forget where I read it (probably stronger by science, I can dig when I get home), but higher intensity work is generally more taxing on the CNS (which, opposed to popular belief, recovers within minutes, not days), and is good at *maintaining muscle mass* despite lower overall volume and thus, muscular fatigue. Which is why it makes sense to reduce volume but maintain (or increase) intensity on a cut.\n\nAnd no, you don't necessarily *lose* lean mass on a deficit. With good training and diet, you can lose minimal lean mass, and even gain some lean mass if you're new to lifting. \n_Path: So if your primary workout entails high reps in general, are you accommodating less volume by doing fewer sets, but still remaining within the rep range, or by increasing the weight to something you're normally not accustomed to but lowering the reps and keeping the set the same.\n\nIn my head I consider volume the overall amount of reps you're doing per set but it sounds like reducing volume is lowering the overall sets of your entire workout.\n\nWhat's the best way to go about that? \nAlakazam: Imo, the best bet for a cut is just to maintain your current workout as best you can. If you start feeling beat up, start removing some isolation work and accessories. Because legit, volume is about the number of hard sets as opposed to any specific rep range. \n\nMy standard workout is like 4-5 sets of a primary movement (squat, Bench, or deadlift) , 2 supplemental movements (still compound movements like RDLs, OHP, dB incline, etc), the 3-4 isolations.\n\nOn a deficit, I keep my primary movement, drop down to one supplemental movement, and cut it down to 2 isolations. Typically prehab\/rehab stuff. \n\nI typically don't adjust the rep ranges of what I do (outside of what the whole 5\/3\/1 thing) unless I'm doing prep for a powerlifting meet. \n\n\n\nIstinto: Thank you, this will be very helpful going into the spring\/summer cut\n","num_messages":5,"avg_score":18.4,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0414,"11":0.0382,"12":0.036,"13":0.0245,"14":0.0187,"15":0.0144,"2":0.272,"3":0.1726,"4":0.1278,"5":0.0995,"6":0.0801,"7":0.0705,"8":0.0601,"9":0.0478},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0213,"4":0.0,"5":0.0,"6":0.0,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2234576758,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.4607218684,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":656.1}

Funny that - that making your cardio system work reasonably hard for periods makes it stronger.\n\nStamina is the ability to perform for a prolonged period.

Why exactly does keto work?

What is the specific advantage in keeping body in ketosis mode always? If I have an overall calorie deficit, the body will burn reserved fat or protein - it just has to, right?

And worry about your own progress, don't compare yourself to others!\n\n​\n\nWhen I first started working out in 7th grade, my bench *max* was.... 55 lbs (25 kg). I worked hard and after a couple months I could bench 85 lbs and was so proud of myself! But then I saw some man beasts who must've hit puberty early or been blessed with incredible genetics or something.... One kid, I don't remember how much he benched but I watched him incline bench 170 lbs (\\~77 kg) later that school year. And in 8th grade, when I was stoked to get 115 lbs, there were people doing over 200 lbs (>90 kg), which took the wind out of my sails. In high school, there were people that could barely do over 20 kg and some that could do nearly 200 kg. The point is, don't worry too much about how strong you are relative to others. There will **always** be people that use more than your 1 rep max as warmup weight and there will be some that are jealous of how strong you are.\nfartbartshart: Thank you so.much for the much needed motivation and advice! I'm on the last part of my weight loss journey after losing 24kg and decided to focus on gaining muscle while losing fat.\n\nOfc I understand that everyones different and the  only person you can really be compared to is yourself.\n\nI do however use the assisted bench press machine, the one which stabilises the bar for you - would that count?\n\n\nAlso sleep is really KILLING my gains I can hardly function in school anymore\nLogpile98: Good for you!\n\nI would recommend avoiding the Smith machine (the device that I believe you're describing) and focus on benching with a regular barbell. The Smith machine stabilizes the bar for you which means you're missing out on a big part of the lift because you're not activating the stabilizer muscles that will help you lift more and potentially avoid injury in the future. It also makes the weight easier to lift, so 50 kg on the Smith machine is not the same as 50 kg in free weights. Not only that, but you're also being forced into an unnatural movement pattern: when you bench the bar isn't supposed to actually go perfectly straight up. You\n\n\nAnd yes, sleep is critical. It's the foundation for everything else, you are seriously hindering yourself in basically all aspects of your life if you're sleep-deprived.\nfartbartshart: I guess if it helps, I'll start using  free weights - it'll mean I have to bring down the weight but anything to get there properly.\n","num_messages":14,"avg_score":99.5714285714,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.037,"11":0.0353,"12":0.0346,"13":0.0336,"14":0.0329,"15":0.029,"2":0.3037,"3":0.1853,"4":0.1312,"5":0.0955,"6":0.0708,"7":0.0576,"8":0.0493,"9":0.0402},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0403,"4":0.0167,"5":0.0084,"6":0.0056,"7":0.0028,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2432101786,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.5117891817,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":652.7}

You take a percentage of your training max (TM). Your TM is 90% of your 1 rep max (1RM).\n\nExample: My Squat 1RM is 100lbs so my TM is 90lbs (90% of 100). So, my 5\/3\/1 core sets will be based on that 90lbs. 1x5 at 65% of 90, 1x5 @ 75% of 90, 1x5+ @ 85% of 90.\n\n> 5\u00d75 FSL Squat \/ Bench\n\nThis is a 5x5 you do for additional volume. Use the weight from your first 5\/3\/1 core set (5x5 @ 65% of your TM).\n\n> Assistance Work\n\nThis is whatever you want to do like incline db press, dips, pull ups, etc.\n[deleted]: Ah okay that makes sense then, thank you! I didn't get that from the wiki, sorry.\n_Nuba_: No problem. I agree all the percentages can look confusing and intimidating at first. I recommend just using the pre-made spreadsheet to tell you how much weight to do for how many sets and reps.\n[deleted]: So basically Monday, all I'm doing are squats, bench press, and one other thing from that list? So 3 exercises total?\n_Nuba_: 3 or 4 exercises total. Squats, Bench, and 50-100 reps of a push and a pull movement each. Push could be incline db bench, dips, tricep pulldowns, etc, and pull could be rows, pull ups, etc\n[deleted]: Right, and then 5 reps, 3 reps, 1 rep for each one. Sigh, this stuff is way confusing for me, sorry.\n_Nuba_: Use the spreadsheet man. It literally tells you all the sets and weights and reps you need to do and does all the math for you.\n[deleted]: Sorry I didn't see it in that post.

I'm at a healthy weight, but my fat is disproportionally distributed. I gain weight in my upper body, so I have a decent amount of back fat, fat around my armpits, and my belly. My legs and butt are very thin and don't gain weight at all. I want to lose some fat but also gain some muscle in those areas to make them look better even with a bit of fat on them. \n\nI've never really worked out in my life, every time I try I give up, so I'm pretty out of shape despite being mostly thin. So as a beginner, how much do I need to do to see results? Right now I've got a 20 minute HIIT routine, of which I can only finish 10 minutes when pushing myself as hard as possible (I should be able to do the full 20 after another week or two). After that, I do a 10 minute ab routine that I also struggle to complete, and then either a 5 minute arm routine (with 5 lb dumbbells), or a 5 minute leg routine (all of these routines I found on youtube). That totals to 25 minutes of intense exercise, 35 once I can finish the HIIT. \n\nBased on that, assuming I'm eating at a deficit so that I can lose weight, is that enough time to gain some muscle as well? I'm short and thin so I'm not looking to get huge, I just want to be toned with a tiny bit of ab definition and if possible, more muscle growth in my butt so that I look more proportioned. How can I adjust my routine? I don't have access\/time for a gym, are 5 lb weights enough for a smaller person like me with my goals? \nGamestoreguy: If you want muscle you aren't really going to lose weight. You'll lower your bodyfat but gain muscle and to simplify its basically trading one mass of tissue for another. At least while you have a decent percent of bodyfat. All this is simplified as best as i can. \n\nHow much effort will it take to see results? You arent going to like the answer but: takes as long as it takes. If you get the full hiit program instead of half that is progress. \n\n5 minutes of arm or leg just isn't enough. Research a program for what you want and see if it can be completed in 5 minutes and then you'll see what I mean. If you don't have more than 5 minutes for muscle training I don't know what to tell you. \n\nWithout a gym you'll be buying weights and doing bodyweight exercises\n\n\"You aren't looking to get huge\"\n\nYou are reaaally uneducated on this topic. Hundreds of people are trying to get huge here and have put years into it. It doesn't just happen one day. If you think you are starting to be a bit more muscular than you want: stop. Its really that easy. \n\nDon't limit your exercises because thats what the huge dudes do. If anything they are better since you seem to have limited time. Plus they will give you the defined butt you want and a whole host of benefits you can look up. I'd move HIIT to every other day and start a bodyweight routine with core exercises like squats and accessories like weighted dips, those will work out cardio too, and burn fat just as efficiently.\nderpina9123: I'm sorry, I know that lifting heavy weights won't make me huge, it's just that I don't have access to them. What I meant was I'm not trying to gain a ton of muscle so I was wondering if a shorter routine would still help me reach my goals or not, and if not then how much time would you recommend I spend on arms\/legs\/abs in addition to the HIIT routine? Also I'm not necessarily trying to lose weight, just fat. I don't care about the number on the scale, I just want to drop the extra fat in my upper body and gain some tone and definition all over. Thanks!\nGamestoreguy: Well first things first. \n\nYou can't do \"spot reduction\"; When you lose body fat it is not lost specifically in the area you work. Rather it is lost all over your body equally. Not sure if you were aware so clearing that up. \n\nA short duration like five minutes doing a single accessory exercise like curls would be cutting it short. To properly work the muscle you want to control the weight during the lifting and lowering for the best results. Any decent program would have 5 sets of five repetitions at least, barring certain exercises. So you wouldn't really have time for anything but one exercise if you factor in a rest period between sets. \n\nI would recommend at least five minutes PER exercise with maybe 3-4 exercises if you were only doing accessory lifts and not a core lift like a weighted squat. \n\nSince you don't have those weights you have to look up bodyweight exercise routines (another Commentor posted a helpful link) and then focus one muscle group a day. Such as (legs, back, chest, arms, whatever.)\nderpina9123: Yeah I know I can't spot reduce, but since that's where most of my fat is I'm assuming it'll come off from there anyways. But thanks so much! What you said is exactly what I was looking for. 5 minutes per exercise for 3-4 exercises is what I'll add onto my HIIT for now and see how that goes :) \naHorseSplashes: > 5 minutes per exercise\n\nIn response to this common theme in your posts: doing an exercise for time isn't a very good way to build muscle.\n\nWell it depends on what you mean by \"5 minutes\".  If you're doing an exercise for longer than two minutes *straight* you'll mainly be using your body's [aerobic energy system](http:\/\/www.shapesense.com\/fitness-exercise\/articles\/exercise-energy-systems.aspx), which means you'll be improving the ability of your heart\/lungs\/etc. to supply energy to your muscles but not building the muscles themselves very much.\n\nIf you mean 3 sets of 5-8 reps like in the Bodyweight Fitness Recommended Routine, you could *theoretically* finish that in five minutes or less--30 second set, 90 second rest, 30 second set, 90 second rest, 30 second set--but it'll probably take longer.\n\nThe important part is that the reps are challenging and you have a progression scheme.  For example if you could easily do 20 reps of an exercise there's no benefit to just doing 8--that means it's time to increase the resistance.  Adding weight is the gold standard, but for bodyweight movements you can also switch to a less mechanically advantageous movement, e.g. from knee push-ups to toe push-ups.\n","num_messages":6,"avg_score":1.3333333333,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0363,"11":0.0309,"12":0.0281,"13":0.0264,"14":0.0257,"15":0.0252,"2":0.301,"3":0.1841,"4":0.1493,"5":0.1174,"6":0.0902,"7":0.0699,"8":0.0556,"9":0.0461},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0466,"4":0.0126,"5":0.0018,"6":0.0,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2332745067,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.5080500894,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":496.5}

I've been losing weight for about a year, and while I've been to the gym maybe a few dozen times before this is my first honest attempt at raising my fitness level.\n\nI'm not too concerned with working out perfectly right now. I'll focus more on doing things optimally in the future, but for now I just want to do what I enjoy while getting in the habit of going to the gym. My end goal is to be able keep up with my fit friends and family while hiking, and also be strong and have some muscle definition. Mostly though I'm just really fat, so losing weight is my primary focus.\n\nAnyways, as I said, just doing what I enjoy for now, which is rowing machines or this weird elliptical\/climbing machine at my gym, and then weight lifting on machines. I know machine weight lifting is not the way to go, and I will definitely transition away from it in a few months. Anyways, with that in mind I'm trying [this](https:\/\/www.jefit.com\/routines\/workout-routine-database.php?id=20525) routine. I did day 2 yesterday and I find that by the time I get to the bicep curls my biceps are exhausted! Like they're trembling trying to lift even 70 lbs, where as normally I'm at 100-120.\n\nIs this normal? I assume it's because I was using them in previous exercises? Is it normal to work the same muscle multiple times in one workout? If so, how do I deal with? Do I just lift a lot less weight on the exercises where the muscles are exhausted?\n\nTL;DR The routine I picked works the same muscle in multiple ways, and I'm finding those muscles are exhausted before I finish. How do I handle this?\nPandaSymposium: Rest time, drinking plenty of water as you work, being aware that this intensity is exactly what is making your muscles grow. Also, can I just say that machine only workouts sound really dull compared to compound movements, and I think you'll wish you had started them sooner when you get to it.\nSiiimo: But the working the same muscle twice is expected? I lift to just before exhaustion of my first few exercises, should I dial that back so I can lift more at the end?\nPandaSymposium: Yeah, pretty much. I didn't look at how your workout is structured, but it's very common to group by bodypart (ie legs, where you would hit quads, glutes, hamstrings squatting, then hit them all again leg pressing, then each of them again with isolation exercises) or movement type (ie push, where you work chest and triceps benching, then shoulders and triceps OHPing, then chest and triceps dumbbell pressing, then hit triceps again with an isolation because shit's important, as well as chest and shoulders with more isolation).\nSiiimo: Wow, this is not at all how I've done it in the past, can't believe I've been so wrong.\n\nSo how do I balance my exertion? Let's say one exercise works chest and triceps, and the next works just triceps. Do I go to just before exhaustion on the first, then just do whatever I can on the second? Or do I not come close to exhaustion on the first, so that I can push hard on the second?\nPandaSymposium: Well, going 'to exhaustion' (which I'm going to equate to the usual phrase going to failure) is not always recommended in itself. For starters, your program - if less than shit - should give you a set and rep scheme for each exercise. If good, it should give you a method for progressing the weight that you're using. Stronglifts 5x5 for example will tell you to do an exercise 5 times (5 reps) 5 times over (5 sets of those 5 reps). If you complete that, you add 2.5kg\/5lbs to the bar next time you do that exercise. It even has a scheme for failure to complete the sets.\n\nAs to going to failure the idea is that you want to remain generally within the realms of good form. When form starts to break down (ie, you find yourself throwing the weight rather than contracting the important muscles in a controlled manner), you are at more risk of hurting yourself and should dial back. Either stop and take a break before the next set or move on to a different exercise. There are benefits to pushing yourself, and letting form slip a little for the sake of those last, hard reps because that's where you're really pushing yourself. Complete failure is where you physically can't move the weight anymore (this will usually but not always coincide with or follow technical failure). For most of us, this simply means that we've pushed hard and got a good workout. For powerlifters, who are moving serious weight, it is important to restrict how close they get to complete failure. For one, they might really hurt themselves and they also can't put so much strain on their muscles all of the time. They'll have heavy days and light\/volume days to give muscles a chance to recover. You don't have to be concerned with that yet: for you (and me) exhaustion is a good thing as long as we eat properly and sleep enough.\nSiiimo: Thank you so much for this advice it's very helpful. So, with my current workouts, push close failure on my first few exercises, then when I finish with, for example, bicep curls, just lift whatever I am able to at that point?\nPandaSymposium: Yeah. Just use isolation exercises to add more volume, focusing on the contraction of the muscle.\n","num_messages":8,"avg_score":1.625,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0465,"11":0.0392,"12":0.0361,"13":0.0341,"14":0.0326,"15":0.0314,"2":0.3078,"3":0.1919,"4":0.143,"5":0.1094,"6":0.0851,"7":0.0703,"8":0.0616,"9":0.052},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0425,"4":0.0128,"5":0.0,"6":0.0,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2207326284,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.5180084746,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":546.2}

I may skip over the deloading week on week one and two, If I'm feeling particularly energetic in any given month after that, i may consider another skip. Only however If I feel my body and mind are upto the intensity that will come. This way, I should be able to squeeze in another cycle or two over the course of the year and hopefully hit the target. It's no biggy if I miss it, but it would be a cool achievement to nail by 2014.\njag297: It is probably just out of reach. You would have to make gains every month in all the lifts for 12 months and then some. That is assuming you don't need a single deload due to a stall. Then you have to consider the chance of injury or illness. Do the program. Eat right and sleep plenty. Even if you don't hit 1000lb you'll be stronger and that's what matters most. \npurehealthy: I agree, I am maybe giving myself a little too much credit. I didn't take possible sick days into account. That said, I can only try, if anything using that number as a goal can't hurt, even if I only make a couple hundred lb gains across my lifts in the year it will still be progress and I can keep on aiming for it after the year passes.\n\n\nPigDog4: I think it might be out of reach, especially if you're still having trouble squatting \"heavy\" below 1.5x bodyweight. We're about the same size, I'm 5'9\" and 160lbs. I just ran SS -> TM -> Madcow -> TM for a total of 10 months and my actual total is 785lbs (275x3 \/ 195x2 \/ 315x1 squat\/bench\/dead). My progress wasn't even that great. I'd love to hit the 1k pound club by next year, but it's going to be close.\n\nYou're going to need faster progression than 5\/3\/1 to make it. In 1 year, you'd expect 120lbs on squat\/dead and 60 on bench. That's +300lbs total, which still puts you 78lbs short. However, you have a pretty good chance if you can finish up some linear gains, run some hard weekly gains for a few months, and then finish up with 5\/3\/1.\n","num_messages":4,"avg_score":5.0,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0346,"11":0.0169,"12":0.0101,"13":0.0044,"14":0.0012,"15":0.0006,"2":0.2955,"3":0.1755,"4":0.126,"5":0.0906,"6":0.0676,"7":0.0555,"8":0.0437,"9":0.039},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0191,"4":0.0032,"5":0.0,"6":0.0,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2653301887,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.5372424723,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":497.1}

Cheers!.\n[deleted]: To minimize muscle loss you will need to do a few things:\n\n* Train for intensity, not volume - when cutting I find sticking to lower reps is advisable, I like the 3x85% range best.\n* Keep your protein up - at least 1g\/kg of bodyweight per day. \n* Keep your deficit mild - a good rule of thumb is 30 calories per day per pound of fat mass.  This means if you're 220lbs, 20% bodyfat you have (220x0.2) 44lbs of fat mass, so you can manage a deficit of (44x30) 1,320 calories a day. Anything over that will come out of muscle mass.\n* If you can get ephedrine, an EC stack will help preserve lean mass. \nphrakture: > Train for intensity, not volume\n\nDo you typically perform less sets when cutting?

Within a few days the belly of the thumb muscle ([Abductor Pollicis Brevis](http:\/\/education.yahoo.com\/reference\/gray\/illustrations\/figure?id=427)) got obnoxiously tender. At a glance, there is no bruising, redness, or any visual difference between both palms. Pressing down on the palm, there is definitely some firmness around the base of the palm on the thumb side. I tried stretching\/massaging, tiger balm (which works wonders for every other sore muscle). Flexing\/Gripping is not as painful, but whenever i put my hand down or support something with some weight, I feel the pinch. \n\nAnyone ever have this happen? how did you treat it?\n\nSyndeyC: I'm not a medical professional (yet) but I really doubt it's CTS.  \n\nCTS is compression of the median nerve at the wrist and the area where you're sore is affected by the recurrent branch of the median nerve which doesn't actually pass through the carpal tunnel.  \n\nAlso, nerve damage will make you feel numb - its not so much a soreness as its tingling.  Do you have any tingling in the palm of your hand, particularly your index finger on the palm side?\n\nMake sure you're icing the area of pain.\nGT12:  No tingling around the fingers; although I was massaging it last night and my thumb went numb for a few minutes, it was fine after that though. I'll try icing it with alternating heat compressions. Thanks for the knowledge on CTS, this has been sketching me out - and good luck in the medical field! \nVic_Vega: To expand a little further on what SyndeyC said, symptoms generally also tend to exhibit at night time as median nerve compression is greatest with wrist flexion. We all tend to sleep curled up at night and our wrists are usually included. If it is CTS, don't bother icing or heating. Get something like a resting wrist brace at CVS or Rite Aid like [this](http:\/\/i.imgur.com\/Squw1.jpg).

Maybe you hit the gym for all three splits you intended to. Maybe you were consistent in your squats, going deep each time, hitting perfect form.  Maybe you were within 100 calories of your daily dietary goals, and hit each macro within 5% points of your goal each day.   Maybe you ran your frigging ass off. \n\nBut you did something which was the absolute best thing you could have done for your fitness this week.  And what was that?  That was your weekly Victory.

I can barely squat the bar and am now painfully sore, but I feel emotionally fantastic!\n\n* **Morsteve (26 points)** I stepped on the scale and it showed 90kg. That was my old goal weight. I've lost 51kg after 14months, instead of setting a weight based goal, I'm aiming for 10% bodyfat.

Stay with me, I'm not trying to put you down or anything.\n\nWorking out for personal health (not competition), boils down to 3 things (I would say 4 but the 3 main are thus).\nSleeping (Recovery), Eating (Diet), and Exercise.\n\nSleep, which is something I think we all need more of, is number 1 IMO, because you can't gain much of anything without it. \n\nDiet, obviously because what you put in is what you get out.\n\nExercise, because...yeah.\n\nNumber 4 for me, is education. Too many people (and this is true for anything really) are satisfied with being told what to think or reading 1 thing and then using that as the Bible for their own journey (I am guilty of this aswell). \n\nBack to my original point: Things like this remind me of cheating in school because you're putting the onus of your weightloss\/strength gain\/ goals, on a product that you're buying rather than yourself. You can get as fit as anyone *should* be by eating properly, educating yourself, sleeping enough, and working out with just your body. There is much more to be done\/ not do obviously, but when you put your goals into a box that is only opened when you buy, it is like cheating on a test to get to the next grade. Sure, you passed, but **you** didn't do anything other than show up. I assure you, I am not trying to be mean or anything just expressing my opinion.\n\nI think you should take some time to read through the wiki\/side bar and check out www.exrx.net, find some type of exercise to do that you enjoy and read [This](http:\/\/www.mckinley.illinois.edu\/handouts\/macronutrients.htm).\n\nThe only thing I'd say to buy would be a good water bottle and some chalk if you're going to lift. \n\n\nAnd like others have said, anything claiming \"7 days\" with a dash of \"ultra\" and \"slim\" are probably bullshit. \n\nBut then again we all have different goals.

I had a few questions, however, regarding working out.\n\nI want to use the [\"Stripped\" 5x5](http:\/\/newbie-fitness.blogspot.com\/2007\/01\/stripped-5x5.html) lifting plan. Using that plan, I'm supposed to work out 3 days per week (MWF, generally). My question is, would it be safe to do the [Couch to 5k](http:\/\/www.coolrunning.com\/engine\/2\/2_3\/181.shtml) alongside this lifting plan? Realistically, I want to do cardio every day while doing lifting three times per week.\n\nIs this safe? What tips can you guys give me to make sure I do this safely and effectively?\n\nAs for what I have to work with, I'm 6'2\" and 225-230lbs. I am out and about every day, for what it's worth, but don't do much in the way of major exercise yet. I've started eating much better, so that's something.\n\nAny advice would be appreciated!\nMonsPubis: Sigh...\n\nFirstly, your post is 90% about exercise, with only a single clause (\"I've started eating much better\") relating to diet. Well, that's ass-fucking-backwards: diet is 10x more important than exercise for body recomposition. Yeah, it's less dramatic than \"pushing\" yourself through Ct5k & some modified 5x5 routine... but it's that slow, relentless commitment everyday that's going to transform your life the way you want it--not big bursts of \"I'm gonna fucking do this\" motivation. Keep that idea, stoke it, but that isn't the core of what it takes to change your life.\n\nThe simple advice: lift, LIGHT LIGHT LIGHT cardio on off days (really, don't even bother until you've taken off a significant amount of fat). Lifting is the PRIORITY. Diet-wise, you want large caloric deficits at first (ALL from dieting), tapering to ~500Cal\/day deficit as you become leaner. \n\nOK, now back to this motivation thing... Here's my word of warning: Don't do too much at once. Don't think you're a unique snowflake who can cut all the corners through sheer force of will.\n\nYou're not different than very very many other people who've been down this road, and reach that critical threshold of self-disgust that compels them to make a change. And it's GOOD to make a change -- but being sufficiently hyper-motivated to push things as far as you can until your mood collapses in a few weeks from the effort is a VERY common story. Very common indeed. And it's the antithesis of success. You know what a successful fitness\/nutrition habit looks like? Fucking boring. Incremental, tiny, progressive adjustments and rigid longrun adherence. That grinding, relentlessly slow commitment is many, many times harder than suddenly jumping out of the gate to run every day and lift on whatever-super-awesome strength routine.\n\nThat's how you win.\ngrammatiker: Alright, well first of all, I do appreciate your concern. I was vague on m nutritional changes because my post was particularly concerned with the safety of doing C25K alongside weight lifting and what general tips regarding exercise you guys could give.\n\nFrankly, while I know your intentions are good, your attitude is a little abrasive. You're making assumptions regarding my character without really knowing my motivations or goals. I'm not coming on here with the mind of \"LOL I'm gonna get ripped and lose 50 lbs in a month AMIRITE?\" I want to change my life because I've seen what sort of damage a poor diet and lack of exercise can do in my own family. I don't want to be that. I'm a sensible person. I have realistic goals, and I'm motivated enough to achieve them. I goal is to lose 1.5-2 lbs per week. I'm well aware this won't happen overnight.\n\nNow, to quell your concerns about my diet, I have gone through the steps of calculating my BMR and my caloric needs. I'm working on a 500 calorie deficit. I've been eating leaner meats like ground turkey, chicken breast, etc. I've been incorporating more fruits and raw veggies into my diet, and while I've always preferred wheat bread, I've begun eating exclusively whole-wheat products (with the exception of certain cereals, but I stay away from super-sugary cereals anyway). Furthermore, I've begun to pay closer attention to not just my overall caloric intake, but also the ratios of caloric sources (carbs, protein and fat). \n\nI understand that I should focus on lifting, but I want to strengthen my overall stamina and heart health, so I figured doing running might help that, hence my thread. I really do appreciate your advice; I know you have seen plenty of people come on here and get burnt out, but my mindset is already far too committed to the idea for me to turn back. Anything less is failure.\nMonsPubis: Absolutely, the tone is ascerbic and exaggerated for effect. It's fine if it rubs you the wrong way. But, here's the kicker: I don't have to make assumptions about your character for (most of) what I wrote to apply to you *because we're all in the same fucking boat*. That is, the advice you need to hear and take is the same as for the vast majority of us who are starting out, including that pertaining to your personality\/commitments. (And to be fair to me, your post was laden with some big warning signs.)\n\nOnce more: you're not special.\n\nI say that being fully aware of how aggressive and unnecessarily bully-ish\/confrontational it sounds, but it's actually a *blessing*. It means: relax, be patient, and put all the overcomplicating junk out of your mind. This fitness game stripped of its $$ and silly obsessions is actually really, really simple: work slow, steady, consistently and hard towards your objective, and you'll get there. Tiny, incremental increases--make every workout have a *purpose*. Slow, sustainable life changes that you blend into your daily, weekly, monthly routines: that's the trick, and like you said, this is what a real life-long change looks like.\n\nNow, I presume you want some helpful direct advice for your circumstances more than the generic talking-down-to that I gave above. :p So let me clarify my opinion on running. The reason I seemed so dismissive of this perfectly valid goal of yours is that while it's totally legitimate to want to really focus on running, running is much more depleting on the body than people think. And I mean, inhibits muscle rebuilding (were you simultaneously lifting), easily causes injuries and aches\/pains that take a long time to heal, and lots of other nastiness that actually make it VERY poorly suited to combining with resistance training.\n\n(Also -- and I say this with 10+ years of distance running and several marathons under my belt -- endurance *running* is kinda bad for you. This doesn't apply to Ct5k of course, but rather to the whole enterprise of impact LISS. The fact that virtually all of my advanced\/elite-level marathoner friends--not to mention myself--suffer[ed] constant year-round injuries was a big warning sign that impact cardio should be viewed much more skeptically by society-at-large than it currently is.)\n\nBut if your *primary* goal is to run (or you take that as being synonymous to \"fitness\", which some do), then go ahead and run. As others have said--you *can* lift and run, albeit progressing slower pairing them together than in either separately; but you *will* progress, and if you're conscientious you will not be injured. And of course you're in no hurry, so I guess at the end of the day if your *equibus paribus* rate of development was halved or quartered and it didn't matter, there's no harm done.\n\nHOWEVER, if your goal is body recomposition, then diet and lift, and add cardio as your diet increases in calories (as you lean out); preferably a mix of anaerobic and aerobic training, and preferably as low impact as possible. Cycling and swimming are good choices here, for example; as are rowing machines, etc.\n\nRE: your diet, everything you said sounds sensible and I'm quite relieved to see that you've put some serious research\/thought into that. Be aware that you'll need to closely monitor your diet in the beginning to feel out what your *actual* maintenance level is for your activities, and what level of weight loss you're comfortable with.\n\nBy the way --\n\n>  I know you have seen plenty of people come on here and get burnt out, but my mindset is already far too committed to the idea for me to turn back. Anything less is failure.\n\n-- this means we can be friends. :D\n\nGood luck mate!\n\nP.S. Also -- you can safely afford >500 calorie deficits in the beginning of high body fat % for faster weight loss. It's only as your bodyfat % approaches a more conventionally-lean level that this becomes self-defeating as more calories are drawn from lean body mass.\ngrammatiker: Hey, thanks for your clarifications. From reading what you and other have to say, I think I'll leave the C25K out for now and focus on the resistance training. If I do incorporate cardio into my off days, it'll be later and low-impact.\n\nMy motivations for doing this are many, but primarily I think it's ridiculous that people shave literally years off of their lives needlessly because they're too lazy to take care of their bodies. My family has a predisposition to weight gain, diabetes and heart issues, and I want none of it. My diet choices through life so far have always been on the poorer side, and so over the past year or so I've been making incremental progress, but now I'm ready to take the full leap.\n\nAs I said before, I am 6'2\" and weight 225-230 lbs, so I have a pretty significant amount of excess body fat to work off (while I'm by no means obese, I do have a very pronounced gut, and my legs and arms have a lot of fat on them as well). Your advice regarding calorie deficit is very helpful. What can I realistically expect in terms of weekly loss at a >500 calorie deficit diet?\n\nAnd I'm glad we can be friends now. :P\nMonsPubis: Not knowing your bodyfat % (you should make it a priority to get that figured out; calipers and photo comparisons just give you a ballpark, DEXA scans are expensive but worth it IMHO), it's hard to say exactly. But I think it's fine to shoot for 3-4 lbs\/wk of weight loss at a higher deficit until your bodyfat % gets into the teens. The underlying logic here is that the body utilizes far more fat for energy at that stage of the game--but as your bodyfat % goes down, the rate of muscle:fat loss approaches parity (which does not help you). Also remember, while calories are the basic thing to be mindful of, you should keep protein as high as possible--there's lots of debate about whether high protein is actually needed to *build* muscle, but it's been clinically demonstrated that dieters with high protein intake will *lose* far less lean body mass. You see 1g \/ lb. of LBM thrown around a lot as a target, and I think that's a fair place to shoot for.\n\nThe key issue though is how a >500kCal deficit will affect your mind\/energy levels. Some people can pull it off much easier than others, motivation notwithstanding. Your goal as much as possible should be to lose weight while staying on-task and keeping your quality of life as high as possible.\n\n(For people a bit bigger than you, I've had them go even further -- 5-7lbs. \/wk -- with the deficits. It works for a while, but it can cause a lot of needless suffering.)\n\nRE: cardio, I definitely exaggerated the impact of Ct5k, perhaps even more than I'd intended. :D If you do want to run a modest distance (and 5k doesn't incur a hell of a lot of joint damage in the grand scheme of things) I think you *can*, but waiting to do so with less bodyfat \/ more muscle is a great idea. And, of course, the best idea of all is to try some no- or low-impact cardio.\ngrammatiker: Sage advice. Thanks.\nMonsPubis: No worries man.

If you're like me and haven't heard of this before, I'll give a quick rundown. The exercise is essentially the top 2\/3 of a regular conventional deadlift with a few key differences. The movement is done explosively for 2-3 sets of 15-20 reps, with low to moderate weight. You lift the bar off the floor like a normal deadlift using a double-overhand grip, and then lower it to a point just below your knees (you should feel a stretch in the hams and glutes) before raising it again. Start slower and then pick up speed with your reps, the movement is supposed to be explosive, so try to explode back to the starting position by really powering your hips through.

If so I'd like to hear your story; particularly if you considered or underwent surgery.\nLong story short, my back is fucked.  This isn't a surprise to me either, I've been dealing with it for the past 2 years.  And I don't mean the normal 'macho' dealing with it where I just complain a whole bunch I mean *actually* dealing with it.  The kind where you see doctors, do 8 months of PT, have 3 cortisone shots and wind up with a chiropractor and a massage therapist holding you together.\n\nBut back injuries are common, both among humans in general as well as athletes and lifters.  **So I want to know your stories:**\n\n* What went wrong and how?  \n\n* What treatment (if any) did you undergo?  \n\n* How long was your recovery process?  \n\n* Did you ever *fully* recover?\n\n[This](http:\/\/i.imgur.com\/IbMwv.jpg) was my MRI from this morning.  Aside from the obvious back discomfort that disc also hits my sciatic nerve.  Meaning I can't lift one of my legs more than a few inches off the ground without blinding pain.  I've been told by my doctors that I need to decide between surgery (which isn't exactly a great option at 24) or dealing with my pain for the rest of my life. \n\nBut this is \/fittit\/, *someone* has dealt with this already and can share their story.  And even if there isn't then maybe the uninjured can learn a tale of caution or two.\nQuaro: Does the chiro help temporarily?  Or is the pain constant no matter what?\n\nIf you don't even get temporarily relief, surgery is probably what you need.\n\nIf you do have times when you aren't in pain though, you may be able to figure why you aren't in pain at those times, and make that window extend over more and more of your life.  Both with exercises at home and by adjusting every movement and posture to avoid whatever is worsening it over time.\n\nI haven't had much luck with professional PTs, they tended to shotgun a ton of different things at me.  Really gotta dig in and experiment yourself.\n\nMrHankScorpio: That was pretty much my experience with PT as well.  They knew what \"usually\" worked and just threw stuff at me hoping it would stick.  I remember because I had gone from lifting\/running 5 days a week to zero and I told my PT after 2 months of inactivity that I was going stircrazy.  Her response: \"Well, I suppose you could try walking *very* slowly and for no more than 15 minutes.\"\n\nIt was a 20 minute walk to get to PT and I don't walk slowly.  Facepalm.jpg\n\nThe chiro somewhat helps.  It's confusing but the disc hits my nerve and the nerve hurts my leg.  So I change my posture to accommodate the leg.  This misaligns my back (above and beyond the injured disc).  The chiropractor is helping me with *that*.  But it's duct tape on a battleship and him and I both know it.\n\nAs far as pain goes it's usually just mild throbbing discomfort in the lower back (all the time).  The only time it gets really bad is when the nerve gets hit, so raising my leg, or bending at the waist.  These movements *are* avoidable but I still cringe a couple times a day just doing my normal thing.  If I had full range of motion I'd be much more inclined to just deal with it.\nQuaro: My impression was that a lot of PTs are getting to people after an acute injury, or an overuse injury, and then after 6 weeks of PT that person gets a lot better.  But... they likely would have gotten a lot better just by letting 6 weeks go by in the first place.  People tend to get better over time, or at least, regress to the mean.  I did have one good guy -- if you can find a really good one, they are gold.  Way better than a chiro because you can continue the treatment after you leave, without coming back.  When I found a few key motions and fixes, and really concentrated on nailing those, I had a lot of improvement.  But this isn't something you can generalize for everyone.\n\nDo you get any relief on your stomach, if you put your back into a slight hyper-extension with a 'superman' or just by pushing up a bit?  I do that at regular intervals when  I feel something getting worse, and it helps a lot.\n\nI'll just shotgun a few other things at you:\n\nThis book for all the standard treatments: http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Back-Disorders-Second-Stuart-McGill\/dp\/0736066926\n\nA bunch of the exercises and adjustments in the articles and books by this author:\nhttp:\/\/www.drbookspan.com\/clinical.html\n\nPutting chin up bar in my office and hanging from up for a bit whenever I get up from my desk. \n\nFor help with pain sitting: http:\/\/www.lifewithease.com\/backup.html -- on a bad day I used to have to miss work, this was a great crutch in those situations.\n\nFor me, surgery was less of an option because of the location and severity.  The doctors were like, well, if you start losing feeling in your legs we'll do it, but if it's just pain you should try everything else for as long as you can. Your injury is more standard so the equation is probably pretty different.\n\nUltimately nothing helped as much as time passing, unfortunately.  Years passing.  If you find yourself even slightly better each year, well, maybe waiting makes sense.  From what I've read of the literature, the 5 and 10 year outlook at surgery vs non-surgery is surprisingly similar.  But that's a long time to be in pain.\n\n\n\n","num_messages":4,"avg_score":1.0,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0297,"11":0.0222,"12":0.0125,"13":0.0083,"14":0.0053,"15":0.0038,"2":0.3076,"3":0.1862,"4":0.1269,"5":0.0864,"6":0.0596,"7":0.045,"8":0.0358,"9":0.0314},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0139,"4":0.0021,"5":0.0,"6":0.0,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2383292383,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.5572192513,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":502.1}

The easiest way to cover flared ribs is to grow a fat stomach which is neither healthy nor a good look to have.\n\nMy best advice would be to bulk up, your obliques and abs will cover that lower rib area slightly and a small amount of fat will help but don't go overboard with that part.

Today my squat weight was 5x5 at 165lbs, which I'm pretty proud of - certainly the most I've ever squatted.

Caffeine and carb up next time  \n2) You need some cardio, increase your lung capacity mumble mumble  \n3) Man the fuck up. What your body tells you is not always right. If you could do one set, you could've done at least half a set more. You can't know without trying. Have a spotter or safety pins and DO IT.  \n\n[deleted]: Caffeine is a vaso-constrictor, therefore preventing blood flow to your muscles, stay away from it during physical exercise. \nmoontruck: Works extremely well for me as a pre-workout stim. What do you take?\n[deleted]: I take Beta-Alanine, \"N'SANE\" . Its a vaso-dialator, and it makes my skin crawl, and it works.  Caffeine may work well because it gives you energy, but it isn't allowing your muscles to fully utilize the nutrients from your blood flow.  You can get energy elsewhere, also most drinks packed with caffeine are usually packed with sugar too.\nmoontruck: Hmm.. I normally just have a cup of coffee with sugar and a sugary cookie or something. I feel like crap if I don't. Won't a short warm-up get the blood flowing just as well? I do a sort of a 5min whole body warm-up before I start lifting, and then do further smaller weights before the main lift for focused warm-up.\n[deleted]: Well yeah, you should warm up anyway. But in truth 5 min is probably a bit short. and that is to stretch your ligaments an muscles, and elevate your heart rate, as well as start your body's cooling system. Either way, whatever work you do to warm up is just being cut down by the caffeine. You probably don't feel well after due to a lack of long term burn carbs, like grains or other starches. Caffeine is a quick fix anyway, that will chemically crash you, not the long term energy your body needs while working out.\n\nmoontruck: I just did a crash-course on beta-alanine. Seems legit, and I'll look into dosing some along with creatine (which I'm cycling out of currently, I know I don't *need* to cycle it out). But nowhere does it say that it's a stim. It's effect is built up (like creatine) and while I can appreciate the importance of higher carnosine levels in experienced athletes, it doesn't seem to be exactly the thing for a \"kick\". \n","num_messages":8,"avg_score":1.625,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0381,"11":0.0329,"12":0.0187,"13":0.011,"14":0.0058,"15":0.0029,"2":0.266,"3":0.1513,"4":0.1059,"5":0.0786,"6":0.0605,"7":0.0521,"8":0.0447,"9":0.0403},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.016,"4":0.0,"5":0.0,"6":0.0,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2360552041,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.5007974482,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":393.9}

I normally never eat bread or pasta, and my mindset was \"How bad can it be?\" so I was just using it as filler while I was broke, and never looked at the nutrition facts.  YIKES.  Tomorrow, I will be free from the tyranny of my skinny wallet, for the time being anyway.

So you're saying that under that idea, SoundCloud isn't the best option?  I've been debating if having multiple RSS feeds would be beneficial, because having everything under one network might help us with the downloads \/ ranking as opposed to 4 separate shows under one network.  \ndecab: Don't. We did it and it was trash and makes the feed just look like trash. Soundcloud's lack of multiple RSS feeds was why we went to Spreaker (you'd think SC could do it - it already lets you create playlists). Plus you never know which show will be more successful than the others and while you might think it'll help you in the short term with downloads etc if the shows are wildly different you might be driving away potential audience if they don't like the style of one or two of the four\nRWrecker: This is an interesting argument.  I like the price point on SoundCloud, and their Pro Unlimited is of great value.  I worry on a platform like Spreaker that I'll run into issues with 500 hours of audio storage, and I'm not sure the price difference ($135\/year on SoundCloud VS the comparable $499 on Spreaker) will be enough to make me want to use a different service.\n\nMaybe I'm readying it wrong, but does SoundCloud have a audio storage limit on it's Pro Unlimited account?  It doesn't look like it.  \n\nI think Spreaker is more oriented to live broadcasts, so that's where their biggest advantage kicks in.\ndecab: Potentially, but we do 5 weekly shows of varying length and are now just over the 200 hour mark - depending on how prolific you are you're not gonna hit the storage cap for a while. If you're doing one show - soundcloud is great, anything over that go somewhere else. It's one of the reasons we're a lot more successful than we were - we went from something like 200 listens in a month to 5k a week when we split the feed and now we're at 60k a week just for one of our shows. I cannot stress enough that having multiple shows in one feed is just the worst and is the one thing I'd change if I had to do it all again. \n\nOmny in another choice for multiple shows (not sure how it goes signing up with them - we were sorta poached by them) and there was another one started by someone from r\/podcasts but for the life of me I can't remember the name.

I wasn't a skinhead for very long 15ish to around 19.  I'm just lucky i changed when i did and that i never did anything super illegal, so i didn't ruin my future cause of it. \n\nThis is copied from my ama a few years ago when asked why i changed.\n\nPart of it was 2 of my friends (all of us are still friends today) and part of it was a girl.    \n\nWhen I first started having those kinds of thoughts most of my friends ditched me, but 2 of them basically knew why I was so angry and what was going on and basically said \u201cwe\u2019ll still hang out with you as long as you keep that to yourself when you\u2019re around us\u201d. So basically around them I pretended everything was normal even though we all knew what I was thinking.  They stuck with me and stayed my friends even after almost no one else wanted to be around me.\n\nThe second part was a girl.  I grew up in a really rural area, mostly white, but there were some blacks and latinos.  I never really had much exposure to other races other than the group of black guys that always picked on me and tried to get me to fight them (one of my main reasons I became a racist in the first place).   \n\nAbout a year after high school one of my friends was living in the closest city and I would sometimes go visit him for the weekend.  One time we went to a party some of his friends were throwing and he introduced me to a girl that he was friends with.  She was everything you could want in a girl and we ended up talking all night at the party.  But I think she\u2019s out of my league so I never made a move.  We met  and hung out together about 4 more times and my friend basically told me that she liked me and to ask for her number, which I did the next time I saw her.  We talked and went on a few dates for about a month and I had some pretty solid feelings for her then she mentioned something about having to go to synagogue.  Luckily I never spouted off any of my racist shit, but at the time it was a shock to find out she was Jewish.  After that I started thinking about if I was wrong about her then I could be wrong about hating anybody and I just thought about how pointless it was to be so angry at everyone all the time.  It wasn\u2019t all at once, but over the next few months, I did learn to hate less.  \n\nI did eventually tell her everything and she was ok with it and we dated for about a year and broke up when I moved.\nBigCUTigerFan: Proud of you for realizing you were wrong and changing. You\u2019re also lucky you had a few friends stick with you.\nFrmrskinhead: I was! Before that i had a pretty big circle of friends but i quickly learned who my true friends were.

It's run by two mods of the asoiaf subreddit. Chapter by chapter reading. They actually hold differing political views and rarely get into it but they do give a sly troll on each other from time to time.\n\nThe asoiaf series themes and such really wrestle with politics and religion though so it's kind of impossible to avoid general theory discussion in those veins.\n\n\nYou can try radio westeros (probably my favorite)\nThey stick to character analysis but eventually started expanding into things like specific moments like the battles of ice and fire. They do not share much about their personal lives in this podcast unless you listen to the live stream episodes. They also do a trivia episode where loser takes a drink. Very fun.\n\n\nYou can do girls gone Canon they do chapter by chapter but only from one characters perspective, which will help you see perspectives better since the characters themselves aren't working with perfect information.\n\nAnd lastly davos fingers but I haven't actually listened to them.\n\nThe community is very close and pretty much everybody shows up on everybody else's podcast so if you like a guest you'll probably like the guest's own podcast.\nbers90: Hey, I asked the same in the asoiaf subreddit today and the \"NotAPodcast\" Pocast about the books was recommended there too.

As I create my own retrospective (over FOX's Fringe), I'd love to do the same. My question is, how is this done? If so many shows (many seeming to be low-budget) can do this, I assume it must be pretty easy?\n\nMy fear is the answer is going to be a *right* vs *easy* discussion.\njohnmurr: Unless the podcast is confident that they have a solid 'fair-use' defence for using copyrighted material, most reputable casts will opt instead to license some royalty free music that has a similar style to the actual theme song.  This has the added benefit of being lyric free and typically easily loop-able--so it can be used as a running bed under the opening remarks.\ncomp07whiz: That makes sense. I have a song I want to use that was created by a fairly small artist, how would you recommend I go about asking their permission to use their song?

A Behringer XM8500 ($20) or XM8500S ($40, the S means there is an on\/off switch) is a little bit better.\n\n   Shock mounts like the On-Stage MY420 ($33) might not be a bad idea.\n\n   Either a simple headphone splitter or a headphone preamp like the Behringer HA400 ($25).\n\n!\nAbstruse: The XM8500 or the Audio-Technica M4000S is my go-to Shure replacements. $20 for the former and about $30 for the latter if you catch them on sale. I have one of the Behringer and three ATs myself. I want my host on a large dynamic. I'd *prefer* the Shure SM7b or Heil PR40, but it's out of my price range. So I'm going with the Rode Procaster unless someone has a better suggestion.\n\nI'm not sure if I should go with a mixer or an interface like the Scarlett, as I've never used the latter. The mixer should either have two monitor outputs or at the very least some other type of output to use. I'm worried that it'll be a pain if I have to walk him through setting up a mix-minus as I have problems even explaining what the hell that is to people who don't do audio work.\nBangsNaughtyBits:    I like my Scarlett but be aware that Skype (and most non DAW\/professional audio software) will only see channel 1.  You would need additional hardware to get both channels of say a Scarlett 2i2 or similar into the Skype call (hence my original question).\n\n   A basic mixer will work, however.\n\n!\n","num_messages":6,"avg_score":1.3333333333,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0487,"11":0.0449,"12":0.0421,"13":0.037,"14":0.0295,"15":0.0232,"2":0.3047,"3":0.1814,"4":0.1249,"5":0.092,"6":0.0709,"7":0.0601,"8":0.0564,"9":0.0541},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0302,"4":0.0095,"5":0.0,"6":0.0,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2572081073,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.5490506329,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":494.7}

The first step I do is to amplify the mic tracks up or down to match general volume level, the select all and run the Chris plugin. Go to www.theaudacitytopodcast.com for a link to the plugin and optimal settings, ill come back and post links in this comment after work. To hear the quality I get check out trspod.com and listen to a bit of the last few episodes, let me know what you think of the results.\ndplusc: Podcast sounds awesome. What do you use to record?\nzombie_slag: Thanks. Not sure about the microphones, Sometimes we use Shure SM58 mics but most of the time we use some generic mics we have laying around. The recorder is an old [Fostex MR-16HD](http:\/\/www.fostexinternational.com\/docs\/archive_products\/MR-16HDCD.shtml).\n\n[Here](http:\/\/theaudacitytopodcast.com\/chriss-dynamic-compressor-plugin-for-audacity\/) is the link to the plugin I use (with instructions), called Chris's Dynamic Compressor, and [Here](http:\/\/cdn.ndl.mx\/files\/2010\/07\/Best-Settings.png) are the settings I use. \n\nListened to a few snippets of your cast and I think if you want to up the audio quality you should use real mics. I'm not trying to be offensive, but I'm assuming you are using the mic either built into the computer your recording on, or one of the cheap stick mics you can find at wal-mart for 10$ or so (or a USB mic, which is only marginally better). The actual levels and balance of the audio is good, but the signal suffers if you are using a sub-par mic. Also, using 1 central mic for multiple people isn't ideal, but I understand why some do this.\n\nMight I suggest you talk to the A\\V person at your school (only caught part of it, but it seems you're all faculty and would have access) to help you set up what would basically be a barebones recording studio in the faculty lounge? A Central recording device (like the fostex I use), a mic for each person, and preferably headphones for each person. \n\n*edit: 2 paragraphs of unsolicited advice about mic's and stuff \ndplusc: Thanks for the feedback. I'd like to get the kind of set up going that you have talked about, but I just don't have the personnel (our school doesn't have an A\\V person) or access to that kid of equipment. I actually use the [H4n Zoom](http:\/\/www.zoom.co.jp\/products\/h4n\/) to record, which shouldn't sound that bad. If you listened to episode 12 the poor sound may well be due to the fact that it was recorded outside on a dock at dusk, relaxing after a nice meal. People were pretty far away from the mic, the recording situation was very loose. I also may have screwed it up more in the edit. Usually we sit around the table with the mic in the middle and try to lean in when we speak. I know this isn't ideal, but it is feasible within the time restrictions that we have for this podcast (i.e. lunch hour)\nStill, next time I record I'm going to secure the space a bit better and try some of your editing suggestions and hopefully get some better results. \nAgain, thanks for the feedback. \ntruthinc: I have an H2n: for the convenience I quite like the results so far :)\n\nWhat do you typically do for gain with the H4n?

I hope this is a quality post. I spend my time lurking on this subreddit to get podcast recommendations and didn't see this one. The podcast is called The Plot Thickens, and the entire season three is a 10 part series about Lucille Ball's life. It starts with her childhood and start to movies, and the later episodes discuss her famous marriage to Desi, their company, Desilu, and its contributions to television. (I won't spoil it, but I was surprised to know just how many shows Lucy's company greenlit.) Episode 6 \"I Love Lucy\" is a wonderful standalone episode about her hit show. \n\nI started this podcast last Friday and was going to listen until my spouse got home and we made plans. When they did, we spent the evening in listening to the podcast until bed, and finished it on Sunday night. I've never had an experience like that with a podcast before and found myself laughing at Lucy, as well as crying over her personal struggles with The Red Scare and her marriage to Desi. \n\nAnyway if anyone is a Lucy fan, please give it a try. The podcast was incredibly well-made and deserves a larger audience. I wish I could credit the original person I saw this from. I believe it was on a movies or television subreddit, where people were discussing (and disappointed by) the biopic that just came out about her. Well trust me, if you listen to this podcast, you won't be disappointed.\nabby-rose: I listened to this entire podcast while I was at home sick a couple of weeks ago.  It was so thoroughly researched and well-presented.  I learned so much about Lucille Ball and Ricky Ricardo.  Really fascinating story.\n\nI also listened to the series on Bonfire of the Vanities, which I also really enjoyed.  It was very interesting to hear all that goes into the creation of a film and the individual personalities involved in BotV was particularly interesting.\n\nI haven't listened to the first series with Bogdanovich.

I just learned that you can bypass the second step. Archive.org has RSS function, albeit it is tricky to figure out. They don't provide RSS feeds for accounts, but instead for sections of the site they call Collections. The trick is to upload your files and then click Favorite on them, and this way, the files will soon appear in your \"Collection\", which can be found at https:\/\/archive.org\/details\/USERNAME&tab=collection\n\n\nFrom there, you can extract an RSS which will look like https:\/\/archive.org\/services\/collection-rss.php?mediatype=USERNAME\n\n\nSo there you go - you don't need a blog and you also don't need to pay some hundred bucks a year for pro unlimited soundcloud account or libsyn or some other hosting service in order to get your podcast on iTunes, as many people think. You can host your podcast for free and get it on iTunes, and as far as I'm concerned - there's no downsides because archive.org works rather well.\nshakamalaka: I've been using archive.org for years, for my podcast and for other stuff. When I started my show back in 2012, I had never heard of an RSS feed. I didn't realize people actually *subscribed* to podcasts and I had no idea how to do it.\n\nI somehow cobbled together a way of doing it by uploading my episodes to archive.org (which I was already doing anyway), then posting them to Tumblr and using Feedburner to make an RSS feed that way.\n\n*However*, I was never able to get my show on iTunes. It still isn't technically on iTunes, even four years later. I tried once and it got rejected. I'm not an iTunes user and really have no experience with it, plus iTunes doesn't tell you (or didn't at the time, I dunno) *why* a show is rejected, they just say it didn't work. I just assumed I did something wrong in the submission process.\n\nIf what you're saying means people can just skip the needing-a-blog step, that's fantastic. I'm wondering if I should make a new feed (if that's even doable, I don't remember how I set up the Feedburner thing anymore) using the archive.org-only method you describe and try submitting *that* to iTunes...?\nothra: Of course you should, you can literally set up a feedburner RSS within two minutes. And I can't think of any reason why iTunes would reject your podcast. Maybe the times were different? Nowadays on Kevin Smith's Smodcast they invoke such filthy things you'd need a plunger to clean out what was said from the depths of your mind.\n\nBy the way, they now do tell you why submission for iTunes got rejected. About an hour ago I submitted an RSS and then removed it from feedburner. Now I went on https:\/\/podcastsconnect.apple.com clicked on it and it says \n>The podcast is not included in the iTunes Store podcast directory. A technical error occurred with metadata, artwork, or attempting to download an episode in the podcast.\nshakamalaka: Yeah, like I said, I did this years ago when I really didn't understand what an RSS feed was and when I wasn't an iTunes user. I'm *still* not an iTunes user. I think the issue was more on the end of not knowing how to properly set up an AppleID and all of that shit than anything being wrong with my feed or my content.\n\n...but at the time, it got rejected (with no explanation) and when I tried to resubmit, it said it had already been submitted (and rejected) so I just said \"fuck it\" and gave up. I know plenty of people who subscribe to my show via iTunes through a backdoor kind of way via the feed itself, but it *would* be nice to eventually get on iTunes directory.\n\nIt's been quite frustrating, because iTunes is the biggest directory and I occasionally have people asking me why they can't find me on there. I'm over 200 episodes in and am a pretty well-established podcast, but I'm just not \"on\" iTunes.\n\nI just tried to set up a new AppleID (because I have no clue what my old one was from back in 2012) and that seemed to work out fine, but I can't figure out how to actually submit it now. It looks like I might need the iTunes program to be able to do it...?\n\n\nothra: You don't need iTunes. Just go to https:\/\/podcastsconnect.apple.com, log in with your appleID, click on the + at the left upper corner, and submit RSS you got from feedburner.\nshakamalaka: Tried that. As soon as I log in it says \"Podcasts Connect requires an iTunes Store account\". So apparently I need something other than an AppleID. \n\nEDIT: Never mind, I just looked it up on their FAQ page:\n\n> How do I submit my podcast feed? Use Podcasts Connect to submit or remove your podcast on the iTunes Store. An Apple ID that has been activated in iTunes is required.\n\n...so it looks like I need to use iTunes somewhere and sign in to 'activate' my AppleID. This was part of the issue in the first place. Just way too many hoops to jump through if you're not already an Apple or iTunes user. As someone who never stopped listening to music on physical formats, I've never needed iTunes, so I'm not currently a user. Frustrating.\n\nI appreciate the help on this, though. I've been putting off re-submitting to iTunes long enough. Might as well figure out how to actually do it once and for all.

Because I don't have a social media following I thought guest-appearing somewhere would be a way to jumpstart things.. I wouldn't be too concerned with the points you list as I wouldn't actually partner with someone long term. Rather it would be a sort of one off collaboration to gain exposure.. \ntintededges: Yeah I think that's where your grand plan falls down...I'm not sure you would actually get the exposure you're after that way. The person you're collaborating with would get the hits on their website\/podcast page (if someone even wanted to collaborate with you that way) and because you don't have your a podcast - you couldn't exactly direct traffic to your own stuff. \ncwbrooks: How about if I make this my opening episode, then later down the road have parts of the material be featured in someone else's podcast and me be a guest.

I can't seem to find a way on Libsyn to do anything other than pay per podcasts.\n\nOne of these podcasts is only going to be a once a month deal, and not take up too much space, so I'd prefer to just house them all under the same hosting plan, as opposed to buying three separately. Are there any good options for this? \nAbstruse: You can do that pretty simply. The only downside is that everything you upload is going to that one Libsyn RSS feed. The only solution I know of is to create an RSS feed outside Libsyn. There's a wordpress plugin if you have a website that can do it, and there's several other places that can create RSS feeds.\nmaskedfox007: I see, so it'd be essentially just uploading all the episodes to Libsyn as if it's the same podcast, but then sending the feeds from the individual sites to iTunes and what not?\nAbstruse: Exactly. We're about to do exactly that on our show.\n\nWe have one Libsyn account. We upload each podcast to the same account, and anyone subscribed to the Libsyn feed we currently use will get every show we do.\n\nHowever, we've set up through PodPress so that when we tag one as \"Gamer's Tavern\", it goes to one of the RSS feeds we've set up. If we tag it \"Game Table\", it goes to another RSS feed we set up just for our actual play podcasts. And so on for each of the shows.\n\nI highly recommend setting them up that way anyway because it gives you full control over your show. If you decide for some reason that Libsyn's not for you anymore, you won't lose subscribes when you move to another host because you control the RSS.\nmaskedfox007: That's a really good call. I actually already run the RSS for the existing podcast through the site I have set up, but it never crossed my mind to do them all on the same account.

I was having difficulty thinking of ideas and almost anywhere on reddit it is impossible to self promote including on r\/podcasts. Because of this, I came up with the idea of \"Podcast of the day\" for this sub where users can submit an episode from their podcast and the mods could randomly choose a podcast of the day, which I think would be really beneficial for anyone chosen and could be really fun for people to try new amateur podcasts. This idea is very raw so please let me know if you had any feedback. Thank you!\nTheUnPanderers: I literally just created \/r\/PodcastSharing for this purpose. I'll sticky the top podcast of the day\/week.  Hopefully, I can automate it so it's consistent.\nIrateProphet: I loved that idea and followed! The only problem I see with it is getting consistent viewers where on r\/Podcasts it could add thousands of viewers to your podcasts for at least a day and with quality content could lead to lots of longtime listeners. I agree that if PodcastSharing grows then there would be no need for a Podcast of the Day here, but I think that might be kinda far down the road. I mean no disrespect because I love the idea and am subscribed and already posted, but it takes time to grow a subreddit and I think for the meantime this could be really helpful for lots of people.\nfitzrhapsody: r\/podcasts has 350k+ subscribers and posts on the front page rarely get upvotes in the double-digits. I think the problem is that 99% of people in podcasting subreddits are there solely to promote their own stuff. I like your original idea but to your point about \"adding thousands of viewers to your podcasts for at least a day\" is a little too optimistic. \n\nI'm not trying to be down on your idea \u2014\u00a0it's definitely worth TRYING, for sure. But I don't see a lot of people in this sub engaging to LISTEN to other people; they really only engage to share their opinions with others (which is why the \"please give me a recommendation\" threads are the only ones with lots of comments).\nIrateProphet: That\u2019s a really good point. I guess posts only really get about 500 to a thousand views so I was being optimistic, but I definitely think it could help at least a little \nfitzrhapsody: Hey, nothing wrong with optimism.

The first was 47, which was edited from a 90 minute raw file. We recorded Episode 2 last night, and the raw file is 156 minutes. With proper editing, I could easily get two episodes. My question is:  Is it OK to have a single longer episode, or should I break it down to two episodes? I contemplated doing a single (normal-sized) episode, but saving the rest for a \"cutting room floor\" episode - like deleted scenes from a DVD. What's your thoughts?\ndavetbison: I'd suggest getting two episodes out of it. I'm relatively new to podcasting but not to media in general, and most people won't have time to sit through more than an hour of content and will probably break it up themselves anyway.\n\nI'm currently running my first two-parter (plug time: www.BringYourOwnLunch.com), and my goal was to find the right natural break and get new listeners to come back for part two. \n\nFor my old podcast (www.thecommercials.tv), we did \"Underground\" episodes that were made from outtakes, and they were some of my favorite episodes we did. \nthieleclint: I won't know for sure til I'm back in the studio (a.k.a., my home PC), but I'm feeling the two-part episode. I can end the first episode with one of those cliffhangers you'd hear in the old serials, like Batman or The Flash. I know I can do that & still keep the organic feel that \/u\/sjgoglin was talking about. And I'll still have leftover material to add to an outtakes episode.\n","num_messages":3,"avg_score":1.6666666667,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0233,"11":0.011,"12":0.0065,"13":0.0032,"14":0.0,"15":0.0,"2":0.2518,"3":0.1765,"4":0.1367,"5":0.1077,"6":0.0872,"7":0.0711,"8":0.0621,"9":0.0453},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0,"4":0.0,"5":0.0,"6":0.0,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2323037323,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.4962406015,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":479.6}

Sorry for formatting, mobile etc. I am absolutely convinced I listened to a true crime podcast episode about the very sus drowning of Natalie Wood. I was also convinced it was Casefile, but I'm apparently completely wrong about that part. I recently got a new phone and my podcast player wiped my library, so I can't even look back through other podcasts I've listened to and see if it's from one of those. I did a quick search on my usual player and the only podcast I recognised that had an episode was Morbid, and I'm one of the minority who doesn't actually like Morbid so I know I didn't hear it there. So does anyone have any idea of any well known podcasts that have an episode on her? Thanks!\nnicotamendi: I tried listening to Morbid but the incessant rambling just put me to sleep. I appreciate what they\u2019re trying to do, they have their own style and it\u2019s not that bad but being a guy I really felt like I was not the target demographic for that show lmao\nmelasaur88: I think it was just too conversational for me, I prefer one host just giving you the facts. The exception being True Crime All The Time, I love those guys. But any other podcast like that I just can't get into.\nnicotamendi: Yeah for me Criminal is the gold standard for true crime podcasts. The intermittent music is fire, the production quality is world class, wide range of crime topics, and the host Phoebe has a very nice to listen to voice\nmelasaur88: Mine is a tie between Casefile and Invisible Choir. Both start a bit meh, but the first few episodes of anything are always a bit weird while they find their flow. After that though they're both amazing.\nnicotamendi: Got any good episode recommendations for casefile? I put on some episodes but the narrator\u2019s delivery has me zoning out\ud83d\ude05\nmelasaur88: What brand of true crime do you like? Unsolved mystery, gory murder, other crimes? There's a lot I'd  recommend but if I direct you to ones you'll be interested in that will probably help. It took me a few episodes to get into Casefile but once he hit his stride I got hooked.\nnicotamendi: I like any topic really as long as it\u2019s interesting. Unsolved mysteries, modern crimes, cyber crimes, and anything thought provoking like the Jennifer Pan episode by Casefile. That episode was so fascinating to me in a morbid way and all the twists and turns had me invested 100% the whole time. The Silk Road episode was 10\/10 too but I haven\u2019t had a lot of luck with the other ones\nmelasaur88: I loved the Silk Road episodes, they were fantastic. I was actually going to recommend those so you just ruined my list \ud83d\ude02 the episodes on the Moors Murderers and the Muswell Hill Murderer are interesting, I'm British so I found them especially fascinating because they happened here. Two disturbing ones are Joan Vollmer and Anneliese Michel, if you're into demonic possession. He does a very good account of Jonestown if you like cults. Brian Wells is an insane case, lots of twists and turns in that one, and it involves explosives. Dnepropetrovsk Maniacs is particularly gruesome and touches on the gore\/snuff video scene. Mark and John is a mind bender that I'm still not sure I understand. And finally, Operation Cathedral is another cyber crime one.

My college friends and I have a pretty popular blog and need to do this. We listen to this show every week and love it, but, we didn't think it was fair that the guys remained such a mystery.

So, we sent Joel an email and he said that if we post this, that all their jobs were in jeopardy and they would be fired for doing this podcast. We knew that was bogus. So, for all you hardcore fans out there, here's some \"Yeah, it's that bad trivia\" to use at your next party! Martin **** - (no relation to the famous ****) he's the lead graphic designer working at **** somewhere in the Northeast. Kevin **** - he's a CPA and an operations manager for **** and used to work at **** a few years ago. We're still looking into Joel, who re mains very undercover but we do know his last name is ****!

It's meant to be kind of a roast. Very funny show. \n\n\n2. **Painkiller Already** (PKA)- Weekly 4 hour show that just celebrated its 10th anniversary. It's a long form conversational show, with bits sprinkled in. Some recurring bits are Taylor's Bible Stories, Funny Conspiracy Theories, and Guess the Offense. Video version available on youtube. \n\n\n3. **The Dick Show**- Hosted by Dick Masterson, formerly of The Biggest Problem in the Universe. Just a very funny show that discusses current events and such. Clips available on youtube. \n\n\n4. **The Boyscast**- Hosted by comedian Ryan Long, it's the first podcast just for the boys (boys boys boys...you'll get that reference as you watch his stuff). Funny podcast that pokes fun at current events and various topics. Video version available on youtube.\n\n\n5. **Revenge of the Cis**- Hosted by Mersh and Royce Lopez, the two guys watch various videos and discuss them, often making fun of them too. They're pretty brutal at times, but also get into legitimate discussions, all kinda backed with humor. There is a video component to this show available on youtube.\nMatty5812: Thank you for the recommendations!!\nLaughStupid: No problem! It's worth noting, most all of these shows share a similarly brutal sense of humor. I'd give them all a shot, though. They get me through my workday.\nMatty5812: Will do.

We\u2019re not aiming to ape pundits, journalists or other established media figures. The idea is to develop four authentic individual voices within a group dynamic to create engaging content.\n\nIt\u2019ll probably be tricky to find the sweet spot between too tightly structured, hueing too closely to the bullet-points on the one hand, or too aimless and meandering on the other. Getting this right will require practice and adjustment along the way.\n\nRough Ideas on How it Could Work:\n\nChemistry among the cohosts is obviously critical to making this model work. Picking a good team and building some rapport would need to be the first order of business.We\u2019ll start with a few unstructured group video chats and then move on to practice episodes.\n\nCohosts could use group text and a shared Google Doc throughout the week to kick ideas around.Hear something interesting on another podcast or in the news? Had a brilliant thought while in line at the grocery? Share it to the group text.\n\nA list of agreed topics can be created on a Google Doc by a day or two before recording each week.Record remotely with Skype or Zoom, edit, release, repeat.\n\nAnd so...\n\nThose are the basics.The only demographic detail I care a little about is age. I\u2019m 40 and I feel like it\u2019d be best if we\u2019re all at least within 10 years of each other. So 30 - 50 yrs old.If you\u2019re in the Eastern US time zone and interested, or know someone who might be a good fit, please DM me.\nScottnaye: I would give it a go; How shall you connect??  Seems like Google Hangouts works pretty good... I think Discord works IF settings are correct... We could start with two and try to add...  I do feel like the conversation format makes for a better listening experience... 3 might be MAX...  It can get TOO busy with too many people chiming in...\nNotAgainDan: Thanks for responding to my show concept post! Sorry for my delayed reply. I got more responses than expected. \n\nGoing with 4 I think. I listen to a few podcasts with 4 voices. It would require discipline to avoid chaos but it can be done. Zoom, Hangouts, don't know yet. NOT Discord. Not a fan personally. \n\nA little more detail: So far it\u2019s me and one other person in on this. We\u2019re looking to recruit two more. Both of us have some experience recording but neither of us are deeply experienced in podcasting. \n\nWe\u2019ll be building from scratch. This will be a learning experience. It will not go smoothly and seamlessly forth from day one. It\u2019s probably more accurate to say we\u2019re looking for co-creators\/co-producers rather than just cohosts. \n\nHere are a few basic questions. Please let me know where you are on these points and then maybe we can arrange to Skype if you\u2019re still interested.\n\n\nDo you have, or can you get a decent quality microphone (Blue Yeti or >)?\n\n\nDo you have a solid internet connection? Can you be connected by Ethernet during recording sessions?\n\n\nWould you be willing to take on a share of the research & troubleshooting that we\u2019re bound to face as problems present themselves while we\u2019re figuring things out?\n\n\nDo you have any technical or creative experience relevant to a project like this?\n\n\nAre you willing to draw from your personal life in our recorded discussions?

Whether the podcast is news centered, sports centered or even crime centered, it\u2019s all getting produced to the point where we might as well just be sitting down watching dateline on MSNBC.\n\n  Maybe I\u2019m just being a brat about all of this, but I\u2019ve never quite felt disappointment like realizing a crime podcast host has edited interviews to make their own voice sound spooky. Like really? Are we 11 years old again? You\u2019re interviewing a rape victim, not writing your own Goosebumps story. \n\n  Again, maybe I\u2019m just being a brat about this, but I always thought the allure of podcasting was genuine, thought provoking conversation. Now it seems like it\u2019s becoming 30 year old men editing their own interviews to make themselves sound like Walter Cronkite.\ndspins_in_space: This is just a theory, but getting used to hearing your own recorded voice can be a difficult learning curve. Even with a great microphone, your voice sounds higher than you hear it in your own head. I think some podcasters overproduce the sound of their own voices because they're trying to recreate what they *think* their voice sounds like.\n\nTrue crime tends to have a lot of hosts who 1) want to make sure they sound authoritative and 2) are enthusiastic amateurs rather than voice actors or sound engineers, so you're probably noticing it more in that genre. If you're looking for a true crime podcast that doesn't do this, I really like The Trail Went Cold. The host has a distinctly friendly, expressive voice that he's gotten much more comfortable with over time.\nStrangePleb: Thanks a bunch. Just checked this out and I\u2019ve actually been dying to find a host like this.\nmerewautt: If you like Robin's voice from the Trail Went Cold and just true crime in general then you'd probably really like Trace Evidence Podcast. The hosts have very similar inflection and voices imo. I always think about it when I listen to one after the other. The host of Unresolved has a voice like that too, but his inflection isn't as similar.\n\nAnd they also all do the little break down at the end of each story where they go over the theories and discuss what they think is most plausible, which adds a nice dose of personality to each episode.\n\nCome to think of it all three podcasts are just super similar in general and I might just be sucker for it lol, all 3 are probably all in my top 5.\n\nps- If you do give Trace Evidence a listen his most recent episode was AMAZING. It was a really tragic story and he gets really into it, you can tell it all really disturbed him. It'd be a good place to start w the podcast if you're looking for something a little raw, as opposed to smooth and overproduced.\ndspins_in_space: Ooh, thanks for the recommendations!

Forgive me this will be a long post. But wanted something with a little more quality. So i bought a Behringer C1 from Ebay and a Tube MP preamp and here the headaches began. I have four laptops in my house, all Windows 7 and the white noise that came from the phono and minijack inputs was shocking, on all four laptops. So i thought, crappy amp, and bought an M-audio firewire solo, another great piece of kit, this told me the both amps were working and that I had been harsh on the little Tube MP. Hmmm. What next. I borrowed a friend's Shure SM58 and still the awful white noise. Tried the firewire inputs on two of the laptops but the drivers from M-audio wouldn't work with either Win7 or WinXP and got stuck at the part where you have to enable the device. Leads, bought new leads, no change. So i have a Mac Mini as part of my home theatre and thought, give it a try. Simple installation of drivers, Garageband is sooo simple to use. No more white noise from shitty South Korean Dells and HPs and Lenovos and whatnot. Anyway.

I love to hear about the most believable yet spooky encounters, not some fantasist's improbable story or trivial coincidence.\n\nI tried *Monsters Among Us* and while I like the host I got a bit sick of how many of the stories boil down to \"I had a weird dream\" or \"Listen to me willfully interpret normal things as signs of the spirit world\".\n\nI also tried *Supernatural With Ashley Flowers* \\- the Skinwalker Ranch episode, and when she got around to announcing that the best explanation was a *fucking wormhole* I noped out.\n\nI love when hosts get right to the point and there isn't much chit-chat, just content.

It's definitely two hundred episodes of everything, but they also so multi-episode deep dives.\n\nGenerally they are skeptics by nature but are open to the possibility of the paranormal.\nJasonSuriname: Woah, Astonishing Legends are very much in the 'paranormal things definitely happen' camp. Early episodes are more on the skeptical bent, with a number of *spooooky* instances discussed in a 'this is a fun story to speculate about' kind of way. Both hosts were very much 'believers' but not overly so. They would examine in minute detail as much as they could for each story, sometimes buying out of print books just to get a few paragraphs of 'evidence'.\n\nIn the last 3 years or so, they've leaned hard into the 'this *spooooky* incident is a definite sign of something real' approach. This is a result of one of the host's encounter in the Sallie House, which radically altered how he views evidence. On top of that, the quality control has also dropped significantly. Whereas they would read dozens of books\/articles to get the most complete look at a subject, now they can barely be bothered to read one book.\n\nPersonally, the most recent series on the Conjuring stands as disappointing marker of how far they have fallen off.\nStrathfieldGap: Ah I had no idea. I haven't listened for a few years and generally preferred their historical mysteries stuff to their paranormal activity stuff.\n\nBut this is good info for OP!\nJasonSuriname: The best episodes are still those that deal with a history mystery (e.g. the Somerton Man, Patterson-Gimlin film, Knights of the Golden Circle) or a story with many branching elements of spookiness (e.g. Skinwalker Ranch, Mothman) where they can dig deep into every crevice over the course of a couple, lengthy episodes.\n","num_messages":5,"avg_score":3.6,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0376,"11":0.0354,"12":0.0354,"13":0.0326,"14":0.0255,"15":0.0199,"2":0.3001,"3":0.1713,"4":0.1224,"5":0.0949,"6":0.0722,"7":0.0577,"8":0.0462,"9":0.0407},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0185,"4":0.0074,"5":0.0037,"6":0.0,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2055727554,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.5027624309,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":432.4}

I do a small show about living with depression. I'm on a shoestring budget, maybe half a shoestring. My friend gifted me a Zoom h4n. The one recording I did with the built-in mics didn't thrill me with the quality. Does anyone use this unit? What success have you had using additional mics with it? Any tutorials you could point me to? \n\n​\n\nThanks in advance.\n\nJp\nsocratesTwo: Yep, that's what I use, H4n with a couple of different mics.  One mic I got brand new for $0.85 because the local Circuit City was going out of business, and the other is an SM58.  The impressive part is that the sound isn't that different between the two (build quality is though), they both sound great.\n\nThere's no real tutorial needed, just get an XLR mic, plug it in, and use the 3 and 4 buttons to select the XLR ports as your input.\n\nA few tips that may help for recording on half a shoe string:\n\nIf you're recording in a place that has soft things (couch cusions, pillows, duvets, large stuffed animals, or anything really) shove them into the corners of the room, and if you have more, shove the rest into the edges of the room, and when those are as full as practical if you have leftovers, cover the walls.  Corners first, then edges, then walls.  Edit: I should say, that's if you're using an omni directional mic.  If you have a cardioid mic you'll want to pad behind wherever the mic is pointing first, then the corners...\n\nIf you have camera tripods already, B&H will sell you an adapter for $5 that will let you mount mic clips to them.  Obviously a real mic stand is better because it will have a boom, but if all you have is a tripod, it's way cheaper to buy the adapter than a full stand... and no matter what you do don't put the mics on a table where anyone might set a cup or their hands.\n\nBe religious about keeping your H4n in its case, possibly even to the extent of modifying the case so that you can access the XLR connectors and record while its in the case.

Of course, I do love a good story.\n\nIt can be difficult to choose the right podcast for you, especially when there are just so many out there and readily available.\n\nSo without further ado I give you my top three true crime podcasts:  [https:\/\/wordpress.com\/posts\/bookbiatch.home.blog](https:\/\/wordpress.com\/posts\/bookbiatch.home.blog)\nMCAnnie05: My Top three are DEFINITELY so Basic:\n\nCriminal  \nMFM  \nCasefile\nMCAnnie05: Looking forward to trying they walk among us!\nAphina101: Its defo worth a look, esp if you are interested in UK true crime.\nMCAnnie05: I'm interested in any true crime, I care more about how its presented than the location\/type of crime.  Some true crime podcasts I just cant listen to! I guess there is something for everyone.\nAphina101: I am interested in a lot of true crime, I prefer resolved cases. What ones can't you listen to?\nMCAnnie05: I try not to bash podcasts by name, AND usually I don't remember the ones I don't love, because I'm like BYE and never listen again haha. But there is one where I think its a man and a woman and every time the man chimes in he mostly \"uh huh\" and his voice is SO DEEP it grades on me. Could be the garage one?\n\nI also don't usually like the ones where they \"reenact\" the sounds of the crime.\n\nI get frustrated quickly also with things that are too cheesey .\n\nAnd LPOL is a little too dark for me, some of their humor is just a little icky.  And I think three is too many people talking at once.\n\nI'm going to reply to your other message here, too!  For recommendations of once I think are done well and respectfully:\nOne long story ones - Dr. Death, Dirty John, STRANGLERS WAS SO GOOD! Bear brook was okay, and then someone knows something was okay too! \n\nEach Episode different ones - Jensen and Holes the Murder squad, Once upon a crime (I loved her survivor story) was really good, and then obviously criminal.  I liked the fall line, the producing wasn't great initially but I suspect it has gotten better recently. Southern fried true crime is alright, sometimes she editorializes a bit haha, but I like it when in a true crime mood\/pinch!\nAphina101: I feel like I have loads to add to my list!

This will someday cannibalise iPad sales, which are Apples second most popular product iirc\nMarvelMan4IronMan: They have no choice though.  Either cannibalize their own products with their own products to or have another company like Samsung take their sales.\nShaderzXC: Samsung isn\u2019t a competitor in the tablet space, iPad is the only actual fully fledged tablet device.\nMarvelMan4IronMan: I'm talking about foldable phones.  SAMSUBG IS the king of foldable now\nShaderzXC: Their product is far from perfect lmao, it\u2019s deeply flawed and it\u2019s only popular because it\u2019s the only mainstream foldable phone\nMarvelMan4IronMan: How is it deeply flawed?  Reviews have been fantastic.  And buyers have loved it.  The biggest issue is the inside screen scratches easily but thats avoidable if you're careful.  The phone itself is fantastic.  Apple is years behind in foldable tech.  Samsung makes screens and thats one reason they are on the forefront.\nShaderzXC: The main issue is that the foldable screen is a gimmick, beyond all the material issues and the reliability \/ usability issues. It\u2019s the number one outstanding problem. \n\n\nFoldable screens need to be implemented alongside the OS in a way that they actually add to the experience beyond just \u2018oh bigger text\u2019\nMarvelMan4IronMan: Lol OK.  Go read the reviews.  It doesn't just have larger text.  It's an awesome device.  Get outta here apple fanboy.

It is widely agreed and accepted that Samsung\u2019s implementation of the fold is gimmicky. The shitty Samsung version of Android offers nothing extra. There is no real reason to spend more on it\nMarvelMan4IronMan: Lol OK.   I came from iPhone xs max and switch between android and ios periodically.  I'll tell you the note 20 ultra is one of the best phones I've ever owned.  My next phone will be a Samsung foldable.  Either the fold 3 or maybe fold 4.   The foldable are not gimmicky.  Maybe it's not for you and that's OK.  As consumers we have the choice to buy what's best for us.   I've owned ipad pros and currently I own a galaxy tab s7plus.  Personally I love samsungs devices.  No they are not perfect.  But they do make great hardware and have added great features to their phones before even android implemented those features.  I digress.  Though.  If you are not interested in samsung devices then don't buy the.\nShaderzXC: They are very much a gimmick to the majority of purchasers, or sales wouldn\u2019t be so low compared to other phones. They aren\u2019t useful to corporations or schools in the current form, nor the average joe. If you can find a use for it, great but most people cannot.\n\n\nThat\u2019s not to say foldable technology doesn\u2019t have the potential to be great, it has huge potential but Samsung hasn\u2019t utilised it all yet\nMarvelMan4IronMan: Lol sales are low because it costs $2k.  Most people don't want to spend that much on a phone especially one that isn't water proof and isn't very durable.\nShaderzXC: Of course I\u2019m not saying they would be anywhere near as high as a \u00a31k iPhone, but they\u2019re low even with the price considered because the tech doesn\u2019t provide enough value to most people at the moment.\nMarvelMan4IronMan: Lol I think it does.  It's an awesome experience to basically carry a iPad mini in your pocket that folds small to fit in your pocket.  Foldables are the future but currently cost is too high.  Also when folded its the thickness of two phones which isn't great.  Overall the product has received rave reviews though.  The value proposition is huge.  My wife buys an iphone and ipad mini but this device could literally replace both in one device.\nShaderzXC: Yes that\u2019s the future potential; iPad mini in a pocket. Samsung\u2019s OS is the missed potential, it\u2019s not good enough to be an actual tablet\nMarvelMan4IronMan: Lol.  You obviously have never used a Samsung tablet.  I switched from iPad pro 11 to galaxy tab s7 plus and it's better.  Better multitasking especially with Samsung DEX.  The openness of android is awesome with it.  The OS is really great too.  And most apps do take advantage of the increased real estate especially Microsoft apps since Samsung has partner deals with Microsoft.  With that being said, for a lot of people I still recommend ipad and iphone because it is easier to use overall.  But for power users android wins hands down my friend.\nShaderzXC: You are definitely in the minority if you think Samsung tablets are better than iPads. There's a reason iPad sales outnumber Samsung tablet sales by a HUGE margin\nMarvelMan4IronMan: Lol higher sales doesn't mean it's a better product.  There are still many reasons to buy a Samsung tablet over an iPad.  I switched mostly for the gorgeous OLED screen as I use my tablet in bed at night to watch TV.  For me the OLED screen is a night and day difference over the iPad LCD screens.  I also own an LG OLED.

Sure, it's a cheap phone, but what's the incentive for developers?

I have an old, yet functioning laptop. I'm not really interested in games like Candy Crush, etc.\n  \nI mean, the real question I have is what does a tablet bring to the table?  Could a college student feasibly get by with a tablet\/bulky laptop combo or would a smartphone be a better choice overall?\n  \nFurthermore, how much data do you guys typically use?  Do you think one network is better than another, especially considering I'll be limited to 2GB of data for one of them?\n  \nAny ideas, feedback, etc would be greatly appreciated.\n  \n(Assume that more or less any  reasonably priced tablet\/phone is available to me.  The Apple line of products would be the upper limit in terms of price)\ncode-sloth: If you're mostly going to be on a wireless network, data isn't as much of a concern. Whatever data you use via wifi isn't counted against your network data usage. Nearly all campuses have a student wifi network so a 2GB plan should be fine. If you're often without wifi at home or on campus, I'd get the unlimited one.  \n\nRegarding tablet vs phone, it really depends on what your laptop doesn't do or does badly. Do you want a second screen to display notes, an ebook, or a quick browser\/calculator\/reference? Tablet will be better than a phone. Does your laptop do fine in class? Get the smartphone.  \n\nOverall I wouldn't credit my phone (Motorola Defy, upgraded to Nexus 4) with helping me with my classes - having it out in some classes is a disruption, the screen isn't good for reading full pages... But my tablet (Nexus 7) is a useful tool for gathering notes, documents, managing a schedule, and replacing a lot of heavy books. Tablet apps tend to have more mileage for productivity than phone apps, but that's just my experience.  \n\nIn a couple of my classes, I hand write notes in a notebook (math just sucks to type) and use the tablet as a formula sheet or textbook or calculator. I can ditch the bulky laptop unless I'm taking lecture notes that require fast typing.  \n\nI find tablets difficult to write on with or without a stylus, but they're handy little dynamic screens. Hell, you can play movies and such when you're not in class! Scan your notes, put them on the tablet (or use the cloud like Dropbox!), never worry about shredded paper or smudged ink. Smartphones are more for outside the classroom, I think.  \n\nI got a Nexus 7 tablet because of the pure Android system and it's a great size for displaying a full page. Not too big to hold, not so small you'll go blind. Battery lasts through several classes.  \n\nHope that helps!\nHi-Im-Mike: Hey thanks for the response!\n  \nMy laptop is 14 or 15 inches iirc, and while its overall size and form factor can be an issue (both in terms of dragging it around all day and taking it out during class), the more pressing concern is its limited battery life.  I think that, due to it being old, it can only manage a couple of hours without a charge. \n  \nA question about e-books, since this is something I had not considered earlier: did most of your classes have an e-book alternative available?  If so, did it cost extra?  I'm wondering if the convenience of having a tablet replace the books I'd have to take to class might offset any additional cost of having to buy the e-book.\n  \nI'll definitely look into the Nexus (among other tablets).\ncode-sloth: Other than the book that the college itself published for its own stupid fluff class, every textbook I've needed has been available as an ebook or online book. I'm in my third year of college across two majors if that's any indication of scope. For some books you want to keep as permanent references (often from later classes) you'll want a paper copy. For others, an ebook works well. I wait to make a decision until I've contacted my professors to ask if an ebook is viable for the course. You won't be able to use an ebook on an open-book assessment in class, because you'd be able to Google everything and it looks sketchy.  \n\nSlight tangent.... Renting, used copies, ebooks, e-renting, and international editions can REALLY cut down your textbook bill. Ask teachers if an older edition is usable to avoid breaking the bank - most will say it's fine, and it doesn't hurt to ask. The second-newest edition usually has a big price cut on used copies and ebooks but only a couple different pages.  \n\nFor comparison, one of my textbooks last semester was $296 new, $246 used, or $199 to rent at the campus store via Barnes and Noble. Fuck that. It cost me $76 for an online ebook rental at CourseSmart.com for a full semester. CS even has an Android app for a better tablet UI. That saved me the cost of my Nexus 7 on *one book, in one semester*. With e-renting, you pay to access the book online for a certain period (usually half or a full semester plus a week) and at the end you lose access.  \n\nI use bigwords.com for finding the best book deals, both on paper and on the screen. It's like magic :P  \n\nRegarding the laptop, mine has reached its final hour, too. No seriously, it only keeps an hour of charge! During a four hour lecture I don't even bother bringing it. Learn how to take good paper notes to scan and store later, or use a blue-tooth keyboard with your tablet of choice. Leave the poor tech dinosaur at home.\nHi-Im-Mike: Oh wow, definitely saving this post for later.

I\u2019ve done a total of maybe 15 minutes in an Oculus Rift and another 20 in Google Cardboard. I\u2019m a dilettante of the highest order, always going on about how it will change the world when I\u2019ve barely experienced it myself.\n\nSo it was with a lot of excitement and a little bit of dread that I volunteered to write about the new Gear VR \u2014 a mobile VR headset from Samsung and Oculus. It arrived last minute, so I had to spend the better part of the last 18 hours jacked in. I came away in awe, excited for the future of this new artistic medium, bullish on its potential as an entirely new class of consumer gadgetry, and also a bit nauseous from my prolonged stay in several virtual worlds.\n\nI took the plastic cover off the front and slipped in a Samsung Galaxy Note 5, one of four phones that work with the headset. After a quick tutorial I mastered navigation \u2014 a combination a head tracking and a track pad \u2014 then jumped into what seemed like the most straightforward experience, the video library. I started out with 360-degree videos, since I had recently experienced those with the The New York Times and Google Cardboard.\nThe quality of the image was abysmal when streaming. It improved once I downloaded the videos, but still looked like a 720p YouTube clip at best. Despite the sometimes pixelated and blurry visual, I had to catch my breath while flying over New York City, or splashing in waves next to emerald blue ice floes, or bathing beside an elephant in a reedy swamp. When I showed an episode to my wife, she squeezed my hand in fear and refused to let go as a school of very hungry sharks encircled her. After watching her and my 65-year-old father stretch their arms out while enjoying a video shot from a helicopter flying over Iceland, I tried the same and was rewarded with a much stronger physical and emotional reaction to the imagery.\n\nLike almost all mobile VR headsets, this one is low resolution enough to have a slight \"screen door\" effect. I often noticed the edges of the lens and interior of the headset, bits of light creeping in from outside or reflecting brightly off the lenses \u2014 little things that prevented the image from being totally immersive. But a good VR film more than made up for these shortcomings. My last 360-degree film was the award-winning Inside the Box of Kurious, a recording of a Cirque du Soleil performance. And it was fantastic, frightening, and unique. Watching it felt like staring through a very thin veil, but the blurriness didn\u2019t stop me from feeling as though I was standing beside real human beings, taking center stage in a surreal circus.\nOf course, to get that experience, I had to download the film. While it\u2019s easy enough to navigate and browse inside the Gear VR, there is something incredibly dehumanizing about watching a download bar tick by while trapped in a virtual living room, or worse, an endless black void. And being asked to read through a 69-page terms of service agreement inside a VR environment\u2026 well, that felt like its own special circle of hell.\n\nAfter the 360-degree videos, I tried out a couple of 2D flicks in Samsung\u2019s immersive VR theater. It was one of those funny moments where the most banal parts of the environment became completely entrancing: the empty rows of seats around me, the red carpet, the flickering shadows. One of my strongest moments of \"presence\" was turning to inspect the chair to my right. When I moved toward it and felt nothing, my mind stumbled to understand the empty space where a solid object was supposed to be. That said, I\u2019m not sure the experience would have been less interesting on a nice TV, where I could see my wife sitting next to me \u2014 or the popcorn bowl in front of me.\nNext I tried the more interactive experience, games \u2014 starting with EVE: GunJack, a sci-fi shooter. Again, my favorite part wasn\u2019t the central experience, which felt a little too much like a 2D game played with my face; it was entering the massive space station as the game opened. I felt completely transported into that world, fascinated by its details. Former Pixar employees now working on VR, have dubbed this the Swayze Effect: a tendency to enjoy the surroundings more than the story when you lack the ability to meaningfully control or engage with the narrative.\nLand\u2019s End, a Myst-like combination of exploration and puzzle solving, was better. I knew the \"presence\" it produced was strong when, standing on the edge of a cliff, I found myself unable to move my feet toward the edge \u2014 the lizard part of my brain insisting that the drop was real. Moving my feet wouldn\u2019t actually move me in the VR space, there is no positional tracking, but I still couldn\u2019t do it!\nOccasionally I would see the inside of the Gear VR or the focus would drift off for a second, but my mind and body could easily slip back in. After maybe 40 minutes of gaming, I noticed my forehead beginning to get sweaty from the heat of the screen, the bridge of my nose aching. VR is funny that way. I didn\u2019t find the headset too heavy, but its physical, visceral effects came at a cost. Each half-hour session left me with a slight headache and disorientation that bordered on nausea.\nFor people who already own a new Samsung phone, spending $99 for this caliber of virtual reality seems like a no-brainer. It\u2019s hard to say how that price stacks up against the competition. The world of VR headsets seems to be stratifying in a really interesting way. I got a lot of pleasure out of the Google Cardboard that The New York Times recently sent to my house. But navigating through it was a nightmare compared to the Gear VR. That\u2019s the $4.99\u2013$19.99 VR experience, and it fits the bill.\nOf course, the Gear VR probably won\u2019t be nearly as nice as the Oculus Rift, which is slated for release in the spring of 2016. Some games that had seemed fine in Oculus Rift demos, like the fantasy adventure Colosse, stuttered and lagged on the Gear VR. But the Rift will likely cost hundreds of dollars \u2014 not counting the powerful PC you\u2019ll need to support it.\nAfter my family went to sleep, I crept into the living room, drew the shades, and turned off the lights. I cleared the toy trains and blocks off the rug to make a safe space a few feet in diameter. I donned the headset and began to play Land\u2019s End again. I was lost in the world and yet, at the same time, terrified that at any moment a real person, waking up and heading for the bathroom or coming to ask for a glass of warm milk, might find me standing alone in the pitch black, shuffling around and grasping at air like a madman. I suddenly yearned for the ability to keep the real world vaguely in the background, a tether to reality.\n\nAnd then I cracked the puzzle, and the boulder rolled aside, opening a passageway to the clifftop where I had seen the strange mystic altar. My anxiety about intrusions from the real world slipped away. I crept toward the next challenge, birds wheeling overhead, sunlight streaming through their wings.\n","num_messages":3,"avg_score":36.3333333333,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0308,"11":0.0279,"12":0.0257,"13":0.0184,"14":0.0122,"15":0.0085,"2":0.3267,"3":0.2103,"4":0.1381,"5":0.0953,"6":0.0677,"7":0.0492,"8":0.0428,"9":0.036},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0167,"4":0.0015,"5":0.0,"6":0.0,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2135043889,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.4935654807,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":338.9}

My OS disc doesn't have any bloatware on it...\n\nAnyways, I'm glad you fixed the problem easily and didn't have to shell out $300 for a \"genius\" to \"fix\" it.\ncmykify: You see, to me a laptop is like a car. I care about more than the number of gears, cylinders and wheels.\n\nIt's good that you don't care wether your car is a Toyota, Skoda or Lexus, that will save you money. Me, on the other hand, prefer a car where I can sit comfortably, however I like. And yes, I do care about wether the grill on my car is out front, on the wheel or in my ass, it matters.\n\nAlso, it doesn't overheat. Ever. Both my roommates air-duct-rich HP's and ASUS's overheat. It's just bad engineering.\nM0b1u5: OK, MACs **DO** have a tendency to overheat - they do. Believe me. Maybe yours doesn't. You're lucky.\n\nCars are, most pointedly, NOT laptops. The appearance is secondary to the functionality and quality. You can sit comfortably at ANY laptop. What counts in lap-top land are the following factors in descending order:\n\n1) Reliability and Warranty (That's #1. So get a Sony or a Toshiba)  \n2) Battery life appropriate for its intended use  \n3) Weight appropriate for intended use  \n4) Screen size and resolution appropriate for user  \n5) Features (Bluetooth, optical drives, graphics etc)  \n6) Price  \n\nWhile you might think that price is set too low, if you raise the price up the list you compromise all other items on the list. So buying a laptop isn't something you do down to a price; you buy laptops up to a spec, and THEN think price. If you don't do this, you have to adjust your requirements.\n\nMACX hardware is insanely expensive (totally artificially, it must be said) and they have problems frequently, and very poor service speed (at least in NZ) and the best demonstration of that was when I got new RAM for my Titanium: The memory is EXACTLY the same as PC memory *except* for the addition of a single resistor on the stick of RAM. According to Apple, it costs $100 for each of those tiny resistors.\n\nWith some digging, and some help from a large local PC supplier, we ordered special \"MAC\" RAM from their main memory supplier. It cost 11 cents more per stick than the Apple RAM.\n\nIt was at that point I decided never to ever buy another Apple product ever again. And I haven't.\n\nBut I do have a 17\" kick-ass Toshiba laptop which I run Windows 7 and OSX on.\ncmykify: Ok, but I don't like the Toshibas and Sonys. I'm sorry, I just don't. I have the graphics I need, bluetooth, backlit keyboard, a screen that can show the shades of grey I need for those quick photoshop jobs, blah blah blah. \n\nAnd what you say about memory is false, I can upgrade my memory for the same price as a pc. Kingston, Crucial and other brands make Mac compatible RAM, and I can do change it by removing three small screws (that don't void warranty).\n\nAnd just like some people woud pay extra just for not having any plastic on their dashboard of their car, I am willing to pay a little extra not to have ducts and plastic on my laptop.\n\n>What counts in lap-top land are the following factors in descending order\n\nOh, I see, so you know what counts for me? Here's my list.\n\n1. A laptop should taste like over-boiled pasta\n2. A laptop should smell like bacon\n3. A laptop should have a live chicken inside it\n\nIn that order. Anyone who disagrees is stupid because they don't agree.\ninsllvn: Look, if you tell people you picked a mac because of how it looks and because you don't know how to remove the bloatware they ship on windows, those people will assume you are superficial and stupid. C Can you really blame them? That said, you really need to stop taking this guy seriously. He has a Toshiba laptop and his biggest complaints against Macs are cost and that they overheat. \n\n1. Macs don't cost more, it just seems like it because they don't make cheap hardware. Their product line begins at what most companies sell as midrange. For the stats, there is very little difference between Macs and other computers with comparable stats.\n\n2. Toshiba laptops have among the highest rates of failure due to poor ventilation and bad heat sinks. In my experience, if you have problems with a Toshiba, overheating is to blame. \ncmykify: I know how to remove bloatware, I just don't agree that it takes ten minutes.\n\nAfter all, I've worked in Microsoft support (call center for w98) so I have *some* experience. It takes at least two hours, and you often have to modify registry to get thing right. And it comes back when you use the recovery disc.\n\nWhy assume that I'm stupid just because I dont want the bloatware, the bloatware s stupid, not me.. It's like giving me thirty cans of rotten food when I buy a frying pan, forcing me to carry it home, and then sending me more rotten food every time I put the pan in the dishwasher.\n\nAnd do really people have so bad taste they don't care about materials and design at all? Do they only buy paperback books? Do they buy the cheapest, mot practical shelves for their homes? Do they use only iron-free truckdriver-pants?\n\nSeriously, to say that design doesn't affect your decision when buying something is only true if you're lying.\ninsllvn: I didn't say you were stupid, I said if you tell people that you bought an expensive laptop on the basis of appearance and to avoid doing some mostly automated work (if you prefer I not say \"don't know how\", but that is what some will think), that is what they will assume and they will have solid arguments to support this view. \n\n>And do really people have so bad taste they don't care about materials and design at all?\n\nAre you really so superficial as to think the prime value of a thing is its appearance? It is frustrating when people treat their view as nakedly objective and imply that other views are stupid or, better yet, people lying to prove some sort of point. All those things you listed are on sale and, I would think, outsell designer clothes\/shelves\/etc by a wide margin. People certainly do buy those things, or else they would not be made. \n\nJust do me a favor and try not to become a condescending stereotype of a Mac user. The attitude of techno-persecution does not become you. If you really want to know why people don't react positively towards you as a Mac user, it is because of the popular perception of Mac users. The whole thrust of my post was why you were right and the person badgering you was wrong, but from your post it doesn't seem like you noticed. If you feel persecuted when your laptop is objectively critiqued, you have joined a cult not bought a product. \ncmykify: The prime value is not appearance, but I'm putting this in my home, after all. And since I spent hundreds of dollars *not* buying the cheapest stuff in IKEA when I got my new appartment, I think that having a laptop that I think looks better than the next one is a good argument.\n\nI don't think I'm the only one who didn't buy 100% waterproof shoes this autumn, for instance, and I dont think that all the people who bought semi-waterproof shoes this autumn joined a cult. Same thing with watches, not everybody wants super-precise digital watches for $20, even though they may be more practical.\n\nI hear your argument way too often, but the truth is that Apple is one of the few that produce products that people want more because of the form factor. In a lot of smart peoples eyes, the competitors form-factor is a drawback.\n\nTrust me, I wish I could buy something like the Voodoo laptop, but they don't sell it in my country. There is a lot about Apple and Macs that I hate, and if somebody made a equally prized laptop in aluminium, wood, magnesium or whatever, that didn't look like a turd on my oak livingroom tabletop, my clean workspace at work, or my bamboo kitchen table, I'd be all over it.\ninsllvn: Why are you determined to have this argument with me? I don't care what laptop you bought. Can you really not see this from the other side? It is starting to feel like you cannot be happy with your purchase until everyone around you admits they are fools in the face of your consumerist genius and bow down before your purchasing logic. \ncmykify: I'm trying to say the opposite; that your view and especially your list is not universal. We have different needs and wants. And paying extra for design is not the same as joining a cult.\ninsllvn: The only opinion I have expressed that I personally hold to be true is that if you have a visceral emotional reaction when people criticize something you bought that just broke, twice, because they just don't understand you or your deeply personal product choice, you have  become too attached to something you bought. It is a laptop not a life choice. This started because I was defending you, you ass. I told you if you look up any credible parts breakdown Macs are only slightly more pricey than their competitors and that is accounted for in their more sophisticated heat sinks. So, you didn't pay much of a premium for appearance, get over yourself and try to pay the fuck attention. The rest of my first post was in answer to your question of why people have this reaction.

And if its engine quits it's not going to fall onto the sidewalk. \n\nbettorworse: So, what do you think the odds are that a drone will drop something on your head vs. you getting hit by a delivery truck?\n\nI think the delivery truck is more dangerous, especially if they fly the drones down the middle of the street maybe over parked cars, which they are likely to do, considering there is less junk in the way there.\nEslader: I think we have an infrastructure set up to accommodate delivery trucks and pedestrians, and we don't have one set up to accommodate drones. \n\nAs far as flying down the middle of the street or over parked cars, that works great until you hit a tree or a power line or a lamp post. \nI'm not saying we can't EVER do drone delivery - I'm saying it needs to be regulated and restricted such that people and companies don't do stupid shit with their drones, and so that drones aren't flying around with no safety margins if something goes wrong.\n\n\nbettorworse: See, that's the reason you fly down the middle of the street or over parked cars - there AREN'T any telephone poles or trees there. \n\nI'm saying delivery trucks are just as dangerous and that's why companies have insurance, because accidents happen.\nEslader: [Yeah](http:\/\/0.tqn.com\/d\/govancouver\/1\/0\/v\/5\/-\/-\/P1010095.JPG).. Nothing [ever](http:\/\/www.aaroads.com\/delaware\/delaware010\/us-013b_sb_at_8th_st.jpg) hangs [over](http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7252\/6984578258_083b73e355_h.jpg) the [middle of a street](http:\/\/minneapolis.happeningmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/skyway.jpg).\n\nI'm saying delivery trucks are not just as dangerous, because they're piloted directly by a human and don't fall out of the sky when they stall. This seems like it would be obvious.\n\n\n\nbettorworse: Wouldn't they be flying ABOVE that?? Seems like that would be sensible.\n\n\nEslader: How high do you imagine drones will fly?  I'm not thinking they'll be at eye level or anything, but the higher they fly the harder they hit when they crap out. \n\nMaybe a point I haven't gotten across well is that I'm not against delivery drones, but I'm against unregulated delivery drones. \n\nIf the airline industry were unregulated, smaller carriers' planes would be falling out of the sky every week. If they weren't required by law to maintain the hell out of those planes, they'd skip out on the maintenance and hope for the best. \n\nDrones have moving parts, and if those parts stop moving, the drone crashes. They will need to be properly maintained as well. \n\nAnd unlike the airlines, any idiot is theoretically going to be able to buy and run a drone. The barrier to entry (price) is much lower than a multimillion dollar commercial airplane. \n\nUnless there are regulations, you can book it people are going to be buying drones and then flying them around without maintaining them, and you can therefore also book it that those drones are going to have mechanical problems and crash. \n\nWouldn't it make more sense to regulate them? To use your delivery truck example, commercial road vehicles are regulated as well.\n\nbettorworse: They only have to fly about 30 feet high to avoid all that stuff. And if they drop something, especially over a parked car, it will do some damage, but that's what insurance is for.\n\nTruck loses its brakes, hundreds of people could be killed. Drone loses its power, it would most likely drift down like a helicopter.\n\nWhy would you think there wouldn't be regulations??\nEslader: >Truck loses its brakes, hundreds of people could be killed.\n\nHundreds? Really?\n\n>Drone loses its power, it would most likely drift down like a helicopter.\n\nOr drop like a rock. \n\n>Why would you think there wouldn't be regulations??\n\nConsidering the first thing I said on this subject was that there should be restrictions on their use, and then you started arguing with me about it, I'm thoroughly confused as to why we're arguing if you acknowledge that there will be regulations (which... Are restrictions).\n\n\nbettorworse: http:\/\/viewmixed.com\/15-deadliest-car-crashes\/1967\/2\n\nhttp:\/\/viewmixed.com\/15-deadliest-car-crashes\/1967\/4\n\nhttp:\/\/viewmixed.com\/15-deadliest-car-crashes\/1967\/5\n\nI believe the rotors on the drone would cause it to float down rather than drop like a rock, but I haven't done the science. Helicopters that lose power can land safely, I know that has happened.\n\nI haven't said anything about regulation until that last post - I'm saying it's just as safe to use drones as it is trucks and if an accident occurs, there's insurance.\nEslader: 39, 42, and 31 deaths respectively. All of these are less than half of 100, much less \"hundreds.\" And those were very much statistical outliers. The vast majority of delivery trucks go from dealership to crusher without ever killing or even hurting anyone.\n\nAnd if the rotors break apart or detach from the drone, they won't be there to autorotate it.\n\n>I'm saying it's just as safe to use drones as it is trucks and if an accident occurs, there's insurance.\n\nI'm saying I don't think you have the expertise to conclude that drones are no more likely to have problems than trucks. And I'm saying that in the interest of avoiding accidents we should, as we do with the trucking industry, have regulations.\n\n\nbettorworse: So, you are saying 100 deaths COULDN'T happen??\n\nYeah, and the monkeys that fly outta my butt will catch that drone. Sheesh.\n\nYou don't have the expertise to say that drones are MORE likely to have problems than trucks, either, which is kinda my point.\n\nI'm cool with regulations, as I said.\n","num_messages":16,"avg_score":16.5625,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0528,"11":0.0467,"12":0.0434,"13":0.0413,"14":0.0398,"15":0.0376,"2":0.3287,"3":0.1891,"4":0.1569,"5":0.1194,"6":0.0956,"7":0.0794,"8":0.0682,"9":0.0615},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0282,"3":0.154,"4":0.1071,"5":0.0842,"6":0.0692,"7":0.0562,"8":0.0442,"9":0.0362},"special_characters_ratio":0.2312008979,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.5249500998,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":433.0}

The outputs are identical.\n\nSo this litterally is just a Switch logo stuck on an existing product. For the larger one at least. The smaller capacity one does look to be a new product.\n\n~~This came up on the Nintendo Switch sub so I did some digging.~~\n\n~~These aren't just rebrands, they are actually different to the normal PD products from Anker... They are worse.~~\n\n~~Anker have deliberately pegged back the power output compared to normal PD devices (like their 26800 PD). The normal ones output 9V\/3A or 15V\/2A. The Switch branded ones have been turned down to 9V\/2.4A or 15V\/1.6A.~~\n\n~~The Switch has an issue in that's it's not fully compliant of the USB-C power standards (I don't know the full details but there's loads of info online), the result being that it can, if the charger provides it, pull way to much power and brick itself. So plugging in high powered USB-C chargers like those from Macbooks is a flat out bad idea. Don't do it.~~\n\n~~So this isn't just an overpriced rebrand of an existing product (like the SD cards), it's also been deliberately made worse than its base product, presumably to ensure that the maximum power it can ever deliver is well under the safe limits for the Switch and ensure it won't inadvertently damage anyone's console. It means that while this might be the safest PD battery bank for your Switch, it's going to be slower at charging anything else you plug into the PD port.~~\nKaboose666: In independent testing, the Switch will never pull more than 18W, under ANY circumstances. \n\nPlaying Breath of the Wild while docked and using both joycons uses ~17W. Pretty much every other scenario ends up between 10 and 14 watts. \n\nSo 15V @ 1.6A (24W) is going to be ~5-6W more than you'll ever see being drawn, meaning it has extra left over to still charge while you're gaming.\nEven at 9V you're getting 2.6A (23.4W) which will put you over the maximum draw again. \n\n\nSo even if the output amperage isn't as  high as others, as far as the switch is concerned, it doesn't matter. \n\nhttps:\/\/i.imgur.com\/aFXrun3.png\nrabbyburns: From what I can tell, the image you linked is talking about power consumption not input wattage for charging. I dont think it is relevant here.\nKaboose666: How do you think they measure the power consumption...? \n\nHint, it's by measuring the input voltage and amperage. \n\nLMAO, downvote if you want, but the article specifically says they're measuring input voltage and amperage with a USB-C power meter. \nhttps:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B01MT8MC3N\nrabbyburns: You can certainly measure power draw without a charger. The monitor you linked specifically enables you to measure and charge at the same time - you dont HAVE to be charging to get the power consumption. Charging shouldn't make the consumption read inaccurate, they just aren't measuring how much power the charging port is drawing.\nKaboose666: >Charging shouldn't make the consumption read inaccurate\n\nOkay? Did I say it would?\n\n\n>they just aren't measuring how much power the charging port is drawing.\n\nWhat do you even mean by this? They're measuring how much voltage and current is passing between the USB-C cable, and the Nintendo Switch dock (or in the cases of undocked numbers, they're measuring between the cable and the switch itself).\n\nWhat else would it be measuring if according to you they\n>aren't measuring how much power the charging port is drawing\nrabbyburns: You never linked the full article, just an image where they talk about power consumption. The best I can draw is that they aren't measuring input power AT ALL.\n\nEdit: My point is that power dissipation measurement is not the same as charge port draw measurement. These are absolutely different measurements and are measured in different ways. The summary information you posted seems to indicate that it has nothing to do with charge port draw.\nKaboose666: https:\/\/www.anandtech.com\/show\/11181\/a-look-at-nintendo-switch-power-consumption\n\nFeel free to read the whole thing, it's got a good bit of information. \nrabbyburns: Thanks for the link! I finished reading through it and I'm not sure its fully conclusive. The main area I'm interested in is the docked versus undocked testing. The focus seemed to be the power draw of the dock (i.e., trying to confirm the max 18W max draw).\n\n\nI'm assuming (possibly incorrectly) they were using the multimeter against the dock for one test and against the top port for the undocked tests. How consistent is that going to be when in undocked mode? Theybare measuring against two different hardware designs which have different power needs. This doesn't answer \"is basically any 3rd party charger safe to use?\" for me.\nKaboose666: > I'm assuming (possibly incorrectly) they were using the multimeter against the dock\n\nWhy would you assume that when the article specifically says they didn't bust out a multimeter because they weren't looking for that level of accuracy for a quick look at the Switch power draw.\n\nIt specifically says all measurements are using the same USB-C power meter I linked yesterday. So there is no consistency issues in the measurements, all measurements are taken using the same device. \n\nrabbyburns: The meter you linked is described as a multimeter for USB-C. \n\nI didn't mean to imply inconsistencies in their methodology, just with how the ports could be measured. From the article:\n\n> I\u2019ve been profiling the power consumption between the Switch and its AC adapter\n\nSo they are always testing input from the same device (which is rated at 18W output). This is NOT conclusive in saying any other adapter would behave the same way. They also don't mention if they are measuring THROUGH the dock ever or always through the USB port on the switch. I'm inclined to believe they must be switching based on which style of test they are doing. I couldn't confirm without trying to reproduce their results.\nKaboose666: > which is rated at 18W output\n\nThe Nintendo switch AC adapter is rated at 39w output (15v @ 2.6A)\n\n\n\nrabbyburns: Oof - confused that with the USB port on the dock itself.\n","num_messages":14,"avg_score":1069.9285714286,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.057,"11":0.0502,"12":0.0455,"13":0.042,"14":0.0397,"15":0.0383,"2":0.32,"3":0.2045,"4":0.1575,"5":0.1189,"6":0.0917,"7":0.0782,"8":0.0691,"9":0.0618},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0096,"3":0.107,"4":0.0593,"5":0.044,"6":0.0326,"7":0.024,"8":0.0192,"9":0.0144},"special_characters_ratio":0.2289440603,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.4852240229,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":549.8}

I'm not too interested in using it for music or games, I have a Walkman for that sort of thing. The reason I'm asking for a tablet now is that I'm going to University soon, and all my courses involve a lot of scriptwriting and a lot of different texts. Since I don't have a laptop anymore, I think it would be great to have a tablet to keep all my texts on, allow me to access my scripts and script ideas and notes, and just to look professional.\n\nSo, do you any of you know any good tablets that I could buy? Some of my friends have iPads, but I find them very unuseful in regards to scriptwriting applications. Then again, they never let me on them for long, so maybe I don't know them well enough yet. Anyway, thanks for any advice you may have. \nmwanafalsafa: If you're set on a tablet, get an iPad or an iPad Mini and a quality bluetooth keyboard.\n\nBut you should probably just get a laptop. For a couple hundred bucks more than you'd spend on an iPad + keyboard you can get an 11\" Macbook Air, or a 13\" Air if you want more screen space.\n\nAnyway...\n\nFor what you want, software is the most important thing.

You know, the connector used by damn near every other smartphone on the market. Not Type-C.

The data is sold to interested parties who will judge you based on the status quo rather than your individual actions. The end-game is that entire populations of people are subject to the consequences of their average.\n\nFor example, if you make two transactions at a gas station, there is a 66% chance that you are a smoker. So if you buy gas at the pump and then go in to buy a stick of gum, Google could sell that information to your health insurance provider, who could increase your premium with the assumption that you're a smoker. There are countless ways this idea could be used to punish you for things others do. For example, the amount of time you spend at the gym, or which supermarket you get your groceries from.\n\nThat's a relatively light example, because when governments and law enforcement start using big data for similar things, people could be convicted of crimes in this way.\n\nWhile the law enforcement example is still quite a bit further down the slope, there are already companies (example: Burger King) who sell your aggregate data to insurance companies. We are headed in this direction.\n\n\nthro_a_wey: Yeah... Look man, there are literally billions of people just like that...

It was probably body fat %, but I figured I would clarify due to the number of corrections I\u2019m seeing and being notified of. MY POINT IS THAT IT\u2019S NOT JUST ONE MEASUREMENT. Multiple measurements can be used to determine progress over time relatively easily.\nNukkil: Hasn't BMI been considered inaccurate, or in some cases useless if you weightlift because muscle weighs considerably more than fat?\nw1n5t0nM1k3y: Yeah, it's only supposed to be used for large populations of people and not individuals. The assumption is that most people are not body builders. But it's important to note that you need a lot muscle to mess with BMI. I have a reasonable amount of musicale, and I'd have to put on 30 pounds to be considered overweight. Even people I know who lift weights regularly  and have quite a bit of muscle still don't qualify as overweight based on BMI.\npm_me_your_amphibian: Agreed. If you\u2019re *that* muscular that you\u2019re a BMI outlier, you\u2019re probably not concerned about your BMI.\nTicRoll: You don't need to be all that muscular for BMI to no longer work properly. Your average CrossFit athlete (not the Games level people, but the people in the gym) will be at or near \"overweight\" for BMI. Higher level athletes are often borderline \"obese\", per BMI, despite being in outstanding physical condition. That's easily tens of thousands immediately identifiable non-bodybuilders for whom BMI is effectively broken.  \n\n\nWhich is not to say BMI is entirely worthless; just that its usefulness depends on a population composed of people with very low muscle mass.\npm_me_your_amphibian: I don\u2019t know that that\u2019s true. I\u2019m a reasonable level CrossFit athlete and know many others. We confer about our BMIs, bodyfat and weight quite a lot and those of us with healthy body fat levels are all pretty much smack in the middle or lower end of normal BMI.\nTicRoll: Could be a case of biased anecdotes, but I'm talking about those at the 50th, 60th, and 70th+ percentiles in the Open, probably more looking at males. Especially once you're pushing the 70th percentile, these aren't typically big huge guys you'd identify as bodybuilders or overly muscular, but they have some muscle and not a ton of fat, and that throws BMI for a loop. And that's quite a lot of people just in one segment of society.\nForeverCollege: I'm 6'2\" weigh 263ish considered obese class 2 but I would say I don't look class 2 obese. When I hit the gym consistently I can squat and deadlift around 400#. Now I don't have a 6 pack or anything but I would say aside from a little extra belly fat I'm not too fat. Then again I haven't actually done a body fat % test in a good while.\nWhetherrr: you're really fat. I'm close to 6'2\" and scrawny af. many 6'2\" males have a deadlift of 400 or better, it's not unusually strong, though it does indicate some muscle. for 263 lean, youd have 500 or 600 pound dead easy.\nForeverCollege: I would disagree that most 6'2\" males have a dead lift or squat north of 400. also my max outs were after 5x5 working sets of 380. Or if they do im questioning form. and i never claimed im all lean but im not that fat. \nWhetherrr: I'd put money on you being more than 30% bodyfat, which is really fat. What do you estimate your percentage at?\n\nAlso, I said many, not most. I know less than 50% have a 400 dead, but a lean 267 would have much higher dead than 400. That's a good but not great dead for a 180, 190 pounder.\n\nAlso, you have much greater than 400 dead if you 380 5x5. I can't read minds. You dont have a 400 dead, you have significantly better.\nForeverCollege: just for shits and giggles lets go with your 30% body fat figure. Doing the math going down to 10% would still leave me at 210 and with a bmi of 27. still well with in the overweight range. Would you call 10% fat really fat?\nWhetherrr: If you are exactly 30%bf at 263, lost nothing but fat, and got to 10%bf, youd lose 58lbs of fat, no lean mass, and weigh 205 for a BMI of 26.3. I think BMI is a crock, but I also said I was willing to bet money that you were \\*at least\\* 30% by. You're more likely mid 30s or even 40+. When I estimated your body composition given a 400lb deadlift, I estimated your bf at 34%. You're not giving me your true deadlift, and you're not answering what you estimate your bf% at. It's not surprising that this calculation yields a 10%bf guy who'd barely overweight by BMI, because it's very unrealistic. Most 6'2\" 263lbers are significantly more than 30% bf. Maybe you're not, but you're not giving enough information to work with, and the hypothetical states we calculated dont support the (true) conclusion that BMI is often uninformative.\nForeverCollege: Last I had it done was mid 20s years ago. The calculated 1rm when I last did a heavy heavy lift was 429ish. I don't remember if I did 405 3 or 5 times after my working sets. I couldn't estimate bf% because I just  wouldn't know. Our math is a bit different on the hypotheticals but still claiming I'm really fat given that average is around 24 is a bit excessive. \nWhetherrr: I dont claim you're really fat, you may be very exceptional. I'm saying that of males who are 6'2\", 263lb, a 429ish dead, such people are overwhelmingly over 30%bf. I do maintain that 30%bf for men is \"really fat\". I dont know what average has to do with anything. Are you claiming 24%bf is average? For what population? Men are on average leaner than everyone. 6'2\"ers are also leaner than the population. Your BMI puts you in very obese category, and I dont have any reason to estimate your bf% is <30%. 34%bf is \"really fat\". If you estimate yourself at 22%bf, then maybe you arent. I'm not here to coddle and support you emotionally. The info you've shared suggest theres an overwhelming chance you are really fat. If you want to compare to American average, fine, but that way lies ruin: Americans are fat on average. Dont deceive yourself, man.\nForeverCollege: I'm not saying I'm thin. I know I'm over weight but just a quick Google on body fat puts 10% at elite athlete status. And I would also ask how height has anything to do with lifting ability. I would say it is harder to lift heavier the taller you get just based on simple physics you have further to go. \nWhetherrr: \n>just a quick Google on body fat puts 10% at elite athlete status.\n\nLOL. No. 10% bf has nothing to do with athleticism.

Please don't make any more random quick google searches that don't further the conversation.\n\n>And I would also ask how height has anything to do with lifting ability.\n\nIt generally has nothing to do with lifting ability. I never claimed it did. I claimed that given your height, weight, and max dead, you were almost certainly over 30%bf. I also claimed that 34%bf is \"really fat\". Stay on topic in future replies, please.\n\n>I would say it is harder to lift heavier the taller you get just based on simple physics you have further to go. \n\nGenerally true, but it really depends on specifics. For example, if you have really long arms relative to other proportions, regardless of your height, you don't even have to lift the weight more than 1 cm off the floor to complete a deadlift.\n\n","num_messages":19,"avg_score":220.7894736842,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0411,"11":0.0369,"12":0.0329,"13":0.0307,"14":0.029,"15":0.0278,"2":0.3063,"3":0.1821,"4":0.1391,"5":0.1031,"6":0.0748,"7":0.0595,"8":0.053,"9":0.0459},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0287,"3":0.1031,"4":0.0663,"5":0.055,"6":0.0483,"7":0.0423,"8":0.0378,"9":0.0333},"special_characters_ratio":0.246819008,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.4815927874,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":574.2}

There were other game consoles that people could have purchased...  \n\nNow MS eventually pivioted due to people going to that other console and that's fine but to say anyone was forced is bullshit.\n\nachensherd: Me at the time:\n\n> But what if I want an Xbox One but not a Kinect? Why do I **have** to buy a Xbox One with a Kinect? Can I use the Xbox One without a Kinect? Can I sell the Kinect and still play with my Xbox One? No? Why not?

You're telling me I can't play Halo without a Kinect? **Why the fuck not?!?**\n\nI didn't get an Xbox One.\nmonkeywork: which is exactly fine... but why would you buy an echo then?\nachensherd: Same reason I bought a Kinect with my Xbox 360 back in the day: because I wanted the optional features it offered and do the things that functionally required it. Microsoft did not sell that idea with the Kinect for the Xbox One. They couldn't adequately explain why the Kinect was *necessary* for an Xbox One to function, and their later removal of that necessity because people were freaking out and because of Sony's mic-drop by announcing the Playstation 4's camera was optional proved their reasons were arbitrary.\n\nIf Amazon required Prime subscribers to have and use an Echo in order to get free shipping, then we'd get a very similar freakout.\nmonkeywork: You are equating two different product lines saying:\n\n>If Amazon required Prime subscribers to have and use an Echo in order to get free shipping, then we'd get a very similar freakout.\n\nIs about as accurate an example as saying MS's decisions with the XBone impact MS Office.\n\n>Microsoft did not sell that idea with the Kinect for the Xbox One. They couldn't adequately explain why the Kinect was necessary for an Xbox One to function\n\nActually they did they showed the features (voice commands, etc) that they were trying to do with the Kinect ... in fact they actually got super criticized for it by saying they didn't focus on games enough.   The Xbox One wasn't a game console for Microsoft, it was an entertainment device that happened to also play games... it was their push into content delivery.     Was it the correct choice - quite possibly not and it hurt them but they offered a product and the public lashed out at them ... which is 100% fine.    They eventually pivoted because otherwise would have been a much worse senario - however the changes MS were forced to make with the XBone set it way back from the vision they originally had for the product.\n\nThe problem is watching that same audience of people go *shrug* when another company comes along and is offering the same always on listening device to sit in your home.   All those privacy concerns people had for MS are equally true for Amazon or hell even Google or Apple ... but people don't like to hate on those companies nearly as much as they do on MS.   I'm no MS fan at all - however I really dislike fanboyism...\nt_rexus: They are equating it exactly right. You're confusing the practice of BUNDLING something with it as a standalone product. Just because people hate that a product they want on its own is forcibly bundled with something they DON'T want, doesn't mean they have to say the thing they don't want shouldn't exist at all.\n\nIf you wanted an Xbox One, you were going to be forced to have a Kinect, which many people didn't want in their homes because it was always on. If you wanted to play the Xbox one, which was their primary reason for buying, you HAD to have the Kinect on. A product they had wanted and waited for was suddenly only available if they also accepted this other thing they never wanted.\n\nThe difference is that this is a standalone product. You buy this because you specifically want an always-on device. You are specifically buying it for this reason. Why are they going to fight against it? If they don't want it in their house, they don't buy it, and they are missing out on nothing. And if they buy it and they are going to have a crazy combination gaming night orgy combo, they can unplug their Echo Dot and still play games! Because it is completely SEPARATE.\n\nI don't see what is so hard to understand, the other person explained it perfectly fine. Your argument is \"well if they didn't want the Kinect they didn't have to buy the Xbox one!\" but they WANTED the Xbox one, not the Kinect. That was the whole damn point.\nmonkeywork: > but they WANTED the Xbox one, not the Kinect. That was the whole damn point.\n\nWhich MS wasn't selling at that point is what I'm saying.\n\nDot \/ Echo are always on audio listening devices... that's what they are designed to do.\n\nXbox One was also DESIGNED to be that as well...  that's what Microsoft was selling... that was their product...  An always on, always listening, home entertainment media consumption device that happened to play video games.\n\nNow that isn't the product people wanted but that's the product MS designed and was selling.   People didn't want that product (which is fine) however that's what they were being sold.   They then freaked out with tons of conspiracy theories and \"accessories\" to block the kinect... but many of that same group are willing to stick an Echo in their home.\n\nIt goes to show that the real reason people were pissed about the Kinect being included is that it increased the price of the xbox by 100$\n\n\nachensherd: > ... but many of that same group are willing to stick an Echo in their home.\n\nThe internet comprises many differing opinions, and they aren't necessarily mutually exclusive or black and white. People can be okay with tracking in one circumstance with certain factors and not another. For example, I was okay with the 360's Kinect because it didn't effectively contain a kill switch for my 360 if I disconnected it. I passed on the Xbone because the Kinect for it was arbitrarily mandatory.\n\n> It goes to show that the real reason people were pissed about the Kinect being included is that it increased the price of the xbox by 100$\n\nIt can be both, you know. And even if it was just about the price, a $100 price difference for a mandatory accessory that Microsoft evidently couldn't convince many customers (me included) was worth the constraints isn't small potatoes. Had the Kinect been optional as it is now and was marketed in such a way that made those without one feel like they were desperately missing out, I might have actually bought an Xbone with a Kinect at launch. But no, it had to be all or nothing, so I opted for nothing like many did.\n\nRough car analogy, since everyone loves those \/s:\n\nImagine Ford announces a New Mustang. I really want a New Mustang. Been waiting for it for a while. Ford announces that the New Mustang includes a mandatory, always on, always listening computer system that offers compelling navigation, entertainment, and convenience features, something that was an option in the previous generation Mustang. Oh, and the car's more expensive for it.\n\nMe: That system sounds cool, but... can I turn it off or maybe get it later?\n\nFord: No.\n\nMe: But what if I don't want to use it all the time? Can I still drive the car with it off or removed? \n\nFord: No.\n\nMe: But... why? Does it have a kill switch or somethi--\n\nFord: We're selling the New Mustang as an always on, always listening, mobile navigation and entertainment system that happens to be a car.\n\nMe: But what if I want to just drive the car?\n\nFord: Get an older Mustang or a different car, then.\n\nMe: But... but I want a New Mustang! Why does it have to be always on and always listening?\n\nFord: You're okay with automated cars that have similar tracking features. Why is that okay and not this?\n\nMe: Because... an automated car reasonably needs those features in order to function?\n\nFord: Well, the New Mustang needs to be always on and always listening in order to function, too.\n\nMe: How is that the same? The New Mustang isn't automated. Why does it need to track me for me to drive it? That's like an Xbone requiring a single player game to be connected to the Internet at all times in order for me to play it.\n\nFord: Get an older Mustang, then. Or get another car. There are plenty of cars to choose from.\n\nMe: But I want a New Mustang! I just don't understand why the tracking device is necessary and why I can't just drive the car like the car that it is!\n\nFord: Well, you're okay with having an Amazon Echo in your house, an iPhone in your pocket, and Gmail as your email provider. You're okay with those products tracking you. Why are you okay with those and not this?\n\nMe: It's not that I'm *not* okay with tracking, it's that I don't understand why the *New Mustang* needs to track me. What's so goddamn different about the New Mustang that it *needs* to track me in order for its wheels to turn?\n\nFord: It is an always on, always listening--\n\nMe: Damn it, I know *that* you're selling it that way, but why does it *have* to be that way? Why did you *design* it that way?\n\nFord: That's the New Mustang for you, and that's how we designed it. Take it or leave it. You do have a choice, and you don't have to choose us.\n\nMe: You're goddamn right I don't!\n\n-6 months later-\n\nFord: Oh shit.\nmonkeywork: To be honest in that Ford \/ Me scenario you were the one acting like a baby... if you don't like a companies product move the fuck on... stamping your feet and acting like they owe you something is stupid.  \n\nEnough people move on and Ford will see loss of sales and adjust if they wish... but throwing a temper tantrum because you didn't get something designed just the way you want it ... childish...\nachensherd: Childish? Eh, why not. I did it for dramatic purposes, but the question remains: if a company doesn't design a product for their customers, who exactly are they designing it for? Why is (or was) Microsoft so prone to *forcing* decisions like this on its customers (see again: Windows 8's Modern UI) despite repeated feedback from existing and potential customers telling them to back off? \n\nYes, people can very easily fuck off and go somewhere else and get something else, but they don't (or try not to) because many  of them *care* about the brand (or just want to continue playing new Halo games). They don't just want a gaming console, they want an Xbox (for one reason or another), and they're distressed that Microsoft is going in a stupid, undesirable direction, so they respond by either being mature and writing the company an open letter or starting a petition, or being childish and freaking out on Twitter or making car analogies to random strangers on Reddit. Whatever it takes for Microsoft to get the message and give them the product they want so they can throw money at them. \n\nWhy would a for-profit, publicly-traded company not want this? What vision is so worth fighting for that active, large-scale, and passionate customer feedback and potential profits are ignorable? They can have their vision! All *I* (at least) wanted was a choice and to (hopefully) remain a customer. But they didn't want to offer a choice (initially), so I did what you said and fucked off.\n\nWhy is it so wrong for a customer (or in this case many, many customers) to want a certain product from a company they like?\nmonkeywork: >Why is it so wrong for a customer (or in this case many, many customers) to want a certain product from a company they like?\n\nNothing wrong with it ... but there is a difference between hoping for something and acting like an entitled fuck if you don't get it....\nachensherd: Nah, entitled fucks sue.

This is due to the main chemical in banana flavoring to be isoamyl acetate, the same chemical found in all bananas. Isoamyl acetate is popular due to it being a versatile and easy to work with compound. It is perceived to be closer in taste to a Gros Michel banana due to that strain having a higher concentration of that chemical and fewer \"volatile components\" that are found in other bananas. The Cavendish banana has a lot more complexity in its makeup, and therefore tastes less like pure isoamyl acetate. Whether or not banana flavorings were purposefully designed to taste more like Gros Michel is unknown.\n\nhttps:\/\/en.m.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Gros_Michel_banana\nsugarfairy7: How can they at the same time say it's a legend and then in the end conclude with \"it's unknown\" \nconfuseddd999: The reason it is an urban legend is because it is unknown whether it was *intended* to taste like the Gros Michel. \n\nIt *does* taste more like the Gros Michel because as they explained, a higher concentration of isoamyl acetate was found in that banana. Isoamyl acetate is the basis of the artificial flavor.\n\nArtificial banana flavor does not taste like the cavendish because the isoamyl acetate flavor is masked by flavors caused by other components in the banana. \n","num_messages":19,"avg_score":957.4210526316,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0652,"11":0.0587,"12":0.0526,"13":0.0471,"14":0.0436,"15":0.0407,"2":0.3089,"3":0.1909,"4":0.1511,"5":0.1277,"6":0.1058,"7":0.0895,"8":0.0789,"9":0.0708},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0664,"4":0.0216,"5":0.0033,"6":0.0,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2031620553,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.4900662252,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":462.6}

All I was saying was being able to buy either a cheap cardboard (literally free for many promotions) or a daydream (wouldn't have paid full retail $100, but it was frequently free - $50.) That is much easier to justify jumping in on. It's a much easier entry level for VR, and I think the market can and should support that.\nmataushas: Psvr works with regular PS4. But I'm in the same camp, I don't have an PS4 or a good enough PC. If Xbox had a VR set for 300-400 I would buy it probably. Now I have to spend at least $500 to get any sort of vr.\n","num_messages":6,"avg_score":8.1666666667,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0252,"11":0.0158,"12":0.0084,"13":0.0042,"14":0.0011,"15":0.0,"2":0.2546,"3":0.1459,"4":0.1015,"5":0.077,"6":0.0566,"7":0.0487,"8":0.0451,"9":0.0399},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0,"4":0.0,"5":0.0,"6":0.0,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2528735632,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.4744744745,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":627.0}

I have tears of experience with pcs and wouldn't go back for anything, except if a decent version of windows ever came out. You have no experience with Macs otherwise you to would be a Mac user. Even though a PC can technically run many if the same things a Mac can, it's like using a go kart instead of a BMW. No thanks. \nTheDukeAtreides: So, what i got from your comment was that, you encountered a few problems on your parent's PC and didn't know how to fix them. Instead of doing the rational thing and learning more about computers so that you can operate them properly, you had them buy you a Mac for graduation.\nYou're like a child who doesn't want to problem solve. It's like falling off a bike one time, but instead of learning how to ride it properly, you resigned yourself to a tricycle for the rest of your life. Enjoy sucking Apple's cock in return for feeling \"special\".\nAnd for your information, I've used Macs EXTENSIVELY in video and audio editing. I prefer my 2 year old Dell to a modern Mac.\ntruthie: Do you even comprehend how pathetic you are? You have to build up these ridiculous fantasies to justify using a piece of shit. Get a little perspective dude. \n\nMacs and PCs do the exact same shit, except Macs aren't a pain in the ass. And they're beautifully made. Using a pain in the ass to save $200 isn't a sign of intelligence, it just means you have to goddamn much time on your fucking hands. \n\nIf your dumb lie about video and \"audio editing\" were true, you'd be one of the 1% of people who use Macs professionally but prefer a PC. Congrats! You would be special after all!\nTheDukeAtreides: >Do you even comprehend how pathetic you are? You have to build up these ridiculous fantasies to justify using a piece of shit. Get a little perspective dude.\n\nSee, I was about to type out the same thing.\n\nMy Dell laptop has served me admirably in many applications and *heavy* use. It has never been a pain in the ass to me because i know how to operate a computer properly. I don't need an OS that has safety bars and padded walls to keep me from fucking up my computer. You see, I'm an adult that can handle solving problems. I dont see the sense in paying extra for the same exact hardware and \"Baby's First OS\".\n\n For the price of a low level Mac, I can build a far more powerful PC. Not slightly more powerful, I'm talking *vastly* more powerful. Then, with my knowledge of computers, and magical problem solving abilities, I can operate that PC with extreme efficiency, with money in my pocket.\n\nNow, I'll admit, I'm no professional audio engineer or video effects artist, but I definitely know my way around the Adobe suite and many other programs of the like. I've done editing, special effects, and audio manipulation for a couple of my brother's amateur films. I've worked on these projects both on my old desktop and a not so old Mac. The programs are (gasp) THE SAME THING. They don't run any better on a Mac and therefore, I see no reason to tout the Mac as superior. Therefore, there is no real reason to pay out the ass for the same thing.\ntruthie: Yeah I understand you don't know what you're talking about. You don't need to keep proving it. Nice how I caught you in that lie too hey buddy?\nTheDukeAtreides: Ah, good job not addressing my actual points. Smacks of a brainwashed fanboy.\ntruthie: You don't have any points worth addressing dumb dumb. It's fine that you spend hours inventing scenarios where it's not a total waste owning a PC, but I don't have to concern myself with them. I can afford a real computer.\nTheDukeAtreides: Really? Like Apple's Price to Performance ratio being wayy lower than PC's?\nLike how anything you can do, a PC can do just as well if not better? How you pay out the ass for the brand and like to look down on the PC users? \ntruthie: Except you can't and it isn't. Don't sweat it, for your low end uses I'm sure a PC will be just fine, no need to have such an inferiority complex about it. A piece of shit is good enough for you. Why do you think that needs to be my problem?\n\nWhat you really don't get is that a tiny discrepancy in hardware spec is meaningless to a professional when workflow is of utmost importance. That you could build an exactly spec'd gross PC for $200 less than a Mac is meaningless when it comes saddled with the massive hinderance of Windows. If you're ever a creative professional you'll know exactly what I mean. If you ever get a sense of taste, Apple's world-class industrial design will just be the fucking icing on the cake.

You haven't provided any counterpoints or counter arguments.

I'm saying that if you drop 1500 dollars on a self built PC, then you are getting more raw performance than a 2500 dollar Mac.

While some purchased them for other reasons (Android\/resell), many are purchasing this because there is finally a tablet at their price point.  If someone buys an iPad, they are willing to allocate a good amount of money to their tablet, and by extension to the apps that go along with it.  \n\nPurchasers of the HP tablet don't have that same mindset when it comes to allocation of funds.  They got a tablet cheap, a couch computer that you can use to fire off the odd email and surf the internet, I doubt that they'll be the same people who will spend big bucks on apps for years to come.\nFooHentai: > there is finally a tablet at their price point\n\nThis isn't quite right. There was a tablet which was $400, and it's suddenly $100 or a quarter of the perceived retail 'value' of the tablet.\n\nIf the tablet had come out at $100, even with the specs it currently has, interest would likely not have been as high as it is right now simply because the perceived value of the item is lower.\n\nNot to mention, these steeply discounted, previously expensive luxury items were suddenly in limited supply with no more to be made. Everyone rushed for the bargain.\n\ntl;dr Some people bought this because it's a $400 item going for $100 in limited quantities, not because there's a market for $100 tablets. So you can't take this as an indicator of their being a market for $100 tablets.\nShakeyBobWillis: If a piece or hardware equivalent to the Touchpad came out and was only $100 right out of the gate, people would flock to it.  That's BS that nobody would want it simply because of the perceived lack of quality in a $100 device. \nbrlito: It would need to be heavily hyped and marketed, which just about all shitty Coby and nameless $100 tablets are not. People have a perceived value of things, which is why Apple can sell a $500 laptop for $2000++. People are retards, they'll flock to anything... as long as its perceived value is high. $500 Coach purse? Yeah why not. $20 purse? Nope. The people attach quality to price (which people thing the $20 purse doesn't have), when they see a $500 tablet like the WebOS go down to $100 they see a *deal* on something that used to be expensive. \n\nThe masses are a bunch of ninnies fumbling around like zombies until the next big thing to buy presents itself. You know why just about everyone has an iPod or an iPhone or a Blackberry even though when you see people with it, they clearly couldn't afford it? It's because it's a status symbol (go into a poor neighbourhood, *everyone* will have something they really shouldn't have put a financing plan on). \n\nNow going back to $100 tablets, even if it did have the HP tablet's specs no one would pay attention to it because the same retards that would overpay for tech a few years old aren't the ones looking at specs. \nShakeyBobWillis: Funny I've never seen a single commercial for a Coby tablet or hear anyone hyping them up \n\nbrlito: Exactly.\nShakeyBobWillis: >It would need to be heavily hyped and marketed, which just about all shitty Coby and nameless $100 tablets are.    \n  \n\nbrlito: A whoops, missed a word there, my bad.\n","num_messages":9,"avg_score":40.5555555556,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0475,"11":0.0431,"12":0.0408,"13":0.0381,"14":0.0363,"15":0.0355,"2":0.29,"3":0.1785,"4":0.137,"5":0.1105,"6":0.0896,"7":0.0723,"8":0.0622,"9":0.0543},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0314,"3":0.1034,"4":0.076,"5":0.0657,"6":0.0589,"7":0.0521,"8":0.0452,"9":0.0383},"special_characters_ratio":0.2384456874,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.5412371134,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":561.6}

Do the right thing for once; release some more tablets, but with Android on them, and then continue to sell them relatively cheap. You'll make buttloads of money. Sadly, the current leadership seems incapable of making such decisions.\n\nEDIT: I could've worded this better. As stated below, a price of $199-299 would be considered rather cheap, but it wouldn't be less than the production cost. Coupled with Android, this would make quite a dent on the market. I'm just saying we shouldn't count HP out, should they choose to re-enter this market.

They are (maybe) getting rid of their consumer PC business even though they are the #1 PC manufacturer.

I'm guessing that the RT version won't do very well unless it's cheap just because of the availability of apps and other things that people like to do with tablets.\n\nHowever, I can see the Pro being a huge success (and I hope it is). I have a 5 year old Dell laptop that I hate using now because it's just big and clunky. I use my desktop for the majority of my computer use but the Pro would be perfect for any kind of mobile use (battery permitting) because it's the size and weight of a tablet but has the power of a notebook. Ultrabooks are nice, but if the Pro is $800 or less then that's going to be a replacement for my laptop. Very excited to see the pricing and actual specs for the Pro\nFireEnt: Here's my FB rant:\n\nLooked into the specs of the Surface today. It is in fact designed to be a piece of shit for anyone using it. First off both versions have 1 gb of ram...already a dealbreaker. Now it gets weird on a design standpoint. The RT version has a quad core Nvidia cpu and a 12 core nvidia graphics card. The Pro version has a sweet i5 for the proc...but why they put an intel POS graphics card in it I don't know. \n\n\nThen the RT version maxes out at 64 gb internal memory and the Pro maxes out at 128...a useless stat change aside from shafting the gamer. Last piece of icing on the stupid cake: The Pro version has micro SDXC capability whereas RT has only standard SD. Even if you want to expand your internal memory the RT isn't fast enough to use it as anything more than extra storage.\n\ntldr: You suck Microsoft!\n \n\nI'm going to go play BL2 on my Windpad now. \n\nEdit: [Specs](http:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/global\/surface\/en\/us\/renderingassets\/surfacespecsheet.pdf)\ntotalBS: Like I said, the RT version will probably fail due to better competitors. However, I don't quite get the rest of your rant. \n\nFirst point with the RAM, do you have a source because I don't remember Microsoft officially releasing any specs including the RAM. 1gb might even be fine for the RT seeing as the iPad and other tables function well on 1gb. But again, I would be interested in an official source for that.\n\nFor storage, again, I guess I'm missing your point a bit. 128 for the pro plus 64 external SD card gives a nice bit of storage. Actually, that's the most storage any tablet type device has ever had. 3 times that of the largest iPad and I can't think of any Android tablet that has a 128gb internal option (correct me if I'm wrong though, I'm don't know too many Android tablets). So around 150gb of free storage after formatting and the OS which isn't horrible. \n\nBut of course I compared the Pro to a real computer, so I must continue to treat it like one. Personally my laptop has 200gb of storage taken up on its hard drive (360gb total) and this includes all my music (only 8 gb) some games (at least 50gb) and various junk I've accumulated over the years. If I was limited to 150gb then I should still be able to install anything I want and use cloud storage for music or whatever else. And what exactly are you wanting to use the SD cards for that they aren't fast enough? They are for storage, that's their purpose. You can buy a class 10 to get the highest speeds, or a class 4 and save some money. I'm not sure what you're wanting to use it for besides storage.\n\nAnd now my biggest problem with your rant and probably the source of it. Gaming. You want to play games on this? That's just not realistic because that's not what it's made for. I would absolutely love for something that's 13mm thick to play all my games, but the reason I built my pc was specifically for that purpose.\n\nIt seems like the Pro is meant for mobile productivity. Word processing, internet, photoshop, and other software like that. We can't expect it to do everything a desktop can. For me the Pro is exactly what I want because I never need something crazy powerful on the go. I need something that's light and compact while still being able to launch any program I want. I need to render something in AutoCAD? I'll go home and fire up my desktop. I guess we just a have a difference in what we're expecting from this.\n\nSorry for my own rant\nFireEnt: That was a beautiful rant.  [The specs were in my original post](http:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/global\/surface\/en\/us\/renderingassets\/surfacespecsheet.pdf) I generally agree, but I still think they are going to ME or Vista it up with this one.  The Windpad has 4 gigs of ram and Windows 8 can still chug.  Think of when Vista came out...most of the  consumer computers were still coming with 1 gig or less of ram.  I worked at BB during that time and almost every customer was surprised at the shitty performance, even when I warned them of it.  Windows 8 is clearly the winner if you want a PC as a tablet.  I have used XP tablet and 7 with a tablet overlay and they are both unbearable.  \n\nThis does leave 8 as a clear winner, but you need the power to back it up.  The average person (or average business person) that wants a tablet needs something with the exact functionality of an iPad...anyone proof.  Windows 8 is NOT anyone proof.  \n\nSo my math is:  \nNot anyone proof + Actual Windows compatible OS + Needs more ram = Not a usable machine for anyone\n\nIf it had more ram then **maybe** it would be a reasonable purchase.  If it had more ram and combined the best aspects of both of the devices then it would be reasonable for me to even purchase, and I just got the Windpad.  Realistically the only advantage is compatibility with PC stuff, it seems all downhill from there.  \n\nThe source of my rant (gaming) was me opening Borderlands 2 on my Windpad for the first time today.  I can technically play it at 15 ish frames per second, but it's going to be a mildly disappointing experience no matter what.  The Surface almost got me really excited, but then that stat sheet confirmed that MS wants to do their usual flounder before they succeed.  Again...\n\nWow, that was long.  Sorry.  I shoulda smoked that bowl *after* I posted this. <--edit this to the bottom...oops\ntotalBS: I guess I'm still missing where it says 1gb of RAM on that page :\/ But I do hope Microsoft gets it right. I wouldn't be surprised if they get everything completely wrong since they love doing that. 1gb is really low seeing as it's the minimum they require for 32 bit, but even if it does have that it's possible they can pull and Apple and make it work since they have complete control over the hardware and software which means good integration and optimization and less things that would go wrong on our end. I am excited to see how the final version of windows 8 works on a touch screen since it was designed for it.\n\nI will continue to have faith in Microsoft until they prove otherwise for this. I just hope they don't kill the project after one year because I'm guessing the first round of surface tables will be meh, but the second round will have more things the consumer wants (RAM, batter life, processor power). But only about a month until the RT comes out technically so they should be releasing more information at some point\nFireEnt: Damnit.  I had like 2 sources at work (I think) when I was whining on facebook.  I'll try and find them, but not seeing them on the official spec sheet makes me suspect their validity now.  My disappointment earlier could be shushed with a decent amount of ram.  Unfortunately the gpu is still a deal breaker for me as my tablet already has a radeon 6250 in it.\n\nThanks for sticking in with my potential idiocy.  :)\n","num_messages":7,"avg_score":2.0,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.03,"11":0.0263,"12":0.0247,"13":0.0239,"14":0.0234,"15":0.023,"2":0.323,"3":0.195,"4":0.1367,"5":0.0984,"6":0.0729,"7":0.0578,"8":0.0468,"9":0.0375},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0409,"4":0.0073,"5":0.0015,"6":0.0,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2320052253,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.5346462436,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":513.0}

Do you really think Samsung would provide their competitor with the same grade display that they use on their own devices?\n\nAnd a security enclave?? Really?? The only reason why apples fingerprint scanners are more secure is because every home button is serialized to the device and stores the data on the home button itself, the whole thing goes to shit when you can just replace the home button and remove Touch ID functionality. \n\nI see the insides of all types of phones practically every day, they\u2019re almost all the same with the only real difference being that apple makes the components appear to be different when they\u2019re practically the same thing, but with a \u201cApple\u201d snowflake sticker attached to it \nSeizedCheese: You... you have no idea what contracts and lawyers are, do you?

You don't need to pay it back but then you won't get your collateral back either.\nTuckerCarlsonsWig: Was your collateral worth more or less than the loan? \n\nIf it was worth less, why not take the loan and run?\n\nIf it was worth more, why get the loan in the first place?\nniktak11: Overcollateralized. For the same reason you wouldn't cash out part of your brokerage account to buy a new car when there's low interest funding available.\nTuckerCarlsonsWig: Hm, I guess that makes sense if you assume your crypto is like a stock market investment that is expected to grow in value over time.

There are already tokenized equities and commodities on ethereum but I'm not aware of any platforms that let you borrow against them yet. I'm sure that is coming soon though.\nTuckerCarlsonsWig: interesting. I suppose that could lead to better rates or something if you cut out a bunch of middlemen.

Just because scalpers aren't causing the shortage doesn't mean that we should defend scalping as a behavior. The only value added to society from scalping is that the scalper doesn't have to work traditional labor to earn money. The downside is that products are more expensive for people who actually want to use them, without any of that added expense going toward increased production, R&D or anything else that might actually benefit the consumer.\n\nScalping is bad behavior regardless of whether it is to blame for the GPU shortage.

If it does then the soil sensors will pick up on it and it will go back to it's normal schedule. \n\nWeather data is accurate enough. Part of my job is paying attention to the weather because we store things outside that can't get rained on. Usually when MSN weather says it is going to rain it actually rains. Sure it's wrong every once in awhile but to say they are \"horrid\" is just bullshit. \n[deleted]: > but to say they are \"horrid\" is just bullshit.\n\n50% rain chances exist for a reason.  Statistically speaking it means that half the people won't get rain in a given area over a given period of time.  So spare me the \"that' bullshit\" line when forecasts by their very nature are intended to have a huge margin of error. You will rarely see a 90% or even a 70% rain chance unless you're in the middle of a tropical system.  And I'm not paying hundreds of dollars to save a little bit of water in those rare instances.\nshaggy1265: Yeah, that's not even how you read weather forecasts. A 50% chance of rain doesn't mean half the people in that area are going to get rained on. Not even statistically speaking.\n\n50% chance typically means scattered showers. These showers move with the wind and will typically cover the entire area with some rain. When you get upwards of 80% that means it will typically rain over an entire area all at once.\n\nIf weather reporting was as \"horrid\" as you are trying to make it out to be then there wouldn't be so many industries that rely on weather reports while doing business.\n\n\n","num_messages":11,"avg_score":70.7272727273,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0523,"11":0.0464,"12":0.0427,"13":0.0406,"14":0.0384,"15":0.0369,"2":0.3153,"3":0.183,"4":0.1445,"5":0.1025,"6":0.0825,"7":0.072,"8":0.0637,"9":0.0594},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0989,"4":0.0531,"5":0.0284,"6":0.0178,"7":0.0107,"8":0.0071,"9":0.0036},"special_characters_ratio":0.229796422,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.5193661972,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":427.8}

But, it's not like racial superiority and anti-semitism were exactly new thoughts come the 1920's\/30's. So was Hitler a product of his environment? Or was he revolutionary in his ideas\/thoughts? And\/or maybe did he just know how to galvanize people to act on those thoughts?\nTurboSalsa: I think it's more towards the latter.\n\nObviously with all the problems the Germans had in the aftermath of WWI with the worldwide depression and hyperinflation on top of that most were probably looking for a scapegoat. Combine that with the centuries-old European tradition of anti-semitism and the two dovetail nicely.\n\nHitler gave the German people their scapegoat and I'm sure the rearmament policies gave the Germans something they could be proud of given the years of humiliation following the Treaty of Versailles.\n\nIn short, I don't think Hitler was that revolutionary in his beliefs but was able to find an unusually receptive audience in the aftermath of WWI.\nRtstevie: Do you think\/know if prior to Hitler becoming popular and well-known, most Germans were anti-semitic and held some sort of Germanic superiority views? I know Germany has a history prior to that period with anti-semitism, such as the Hep Hep Riots in the 1840's. Did Hitler maybe seem to them like the perfect leader\/politician who exemplified views of Germans?\nTurboSalsa: I think most European societies harbored latent antisemitism to varying degrees, though I can't be sure they believed Germans were superior to Jews. With the rise of the Third Reich Hitler basically institutionalized the underlying antisemitism and expounded on it with Nazi eugenics programs and such. I don't think the average German cared about race to the extent that Hitler did, but they supported him because of what he was doing for the economy and national pride.\n\nIt is worth noting that there were proponents of eugenics in the West (i.e. forced sterilization for mental patients) during this period as well, though it was never at the forefront of national policy like it was in the Third Reich. Needless to say, after Nazi atrocities came to light most people abandoned their support.\nRtstevie: It should be noted that what made think of this question today was a religious person telling me that they think Hitler was sent from God, to change the world for the better by committing evil so people would never want to do that sort of stuff again. But, I guess this religious person only thinks God cares about Europe\/North America, and not any other places where stuff like that happens.\n","num_messages":5,"avg_score":2.2,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0417,"11":0.0402,"12":0.0391,"13":0.0383,"14":0.038,"15":0.0376,"2":0.3107,"3":0.1895,"4":0.154,"5":0.1136,"6":0.0862,"7":0.0675,"8":0.0537,"9":0.0447},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0592,"4":0.0274,"5":0.0183,"6":0.0092,"7":0.0046,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.193488024,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.514739229,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":282.4}

And yet when we look at Protestant armies like the Dutch, the English, the danish and the Swedish it seems like they don\u2019t have any financial problem whatsoever. Why is this the case?\nPatrickhes: They absolutely did, to use one example, the 2nd Anglo Dutch War.\n\nThe English were winning but then essentially ran out of money and had to mothball almost the entire Royal Navy. The massively underfunded and mostly absent defenses then allow the Dutch to sail up the Thames in the raid on the Medway, setting fire to the fleet and capturing the flagship.\n\nThis was largely possible because all of the major warships were in slipways, the guard ships had been mostly drawn down due to lack of money and the defending troops\/sailors had in most cases not been paid for literal years whilst they had almost no munitions available. It was an unmitigated disaster that lost England the war.\nprzemo_li: Why didn't England sue for peace?\n\nWas it some kind of cruel incentive to leavy the taxes? \"Look what dutch can do to us if we can't stop them! Compare your losses now to the tax. What's lower??\" ?\ndeezee72: England had actually already started informal peace talks by that point. However they tried to hide their financial difficulties and were essentially bluffing by claiming that they were winning the war.\n\nThe Dutch raid was essentially their way of calling the bluff, forcing the English into a peace agreement favoring the Netherlands.\nHeyyoguy123: Has there been a war where the English or the UK had decisively lost?\nUllallulloo: Hundred Years' War and American Revolutionary War at least.\nwallmoj: As well as when William the conqueror invaded to add another\nLionheart1807: Neither the UK nor the English people existed at that point.\nwallmoj: England was literally the nation, as William and the king of Norway both were claiming the kingdom the England.

Since the Anglo Saxons shared language and ancestry and occupied the territory of modern England, surely that fits the definition of nation? It might have been called England but it still looks like the right word to me.\nLionheart1807: >Why did you even say anything in the first place if you agree England did exist?\n\nBecause the question was whether the UK or **the English** have ever definitively lost a war.

The Uyghers are subjects of the Chinese government. That doesn't make them Chinese. \n\n>Since the Anglo Saxons shared language and ancestry and occupied the territory of modern England, surely that fits the definition of nation?\n\nNo, because a nation needs to be conscious of its own nationhood.

I'm arguing it *was* the former, but *not* the latter.\n\nJust because England existed as a legal entity, and an individual was recognised as the \"King of England\" does not necessarily mean that England existed as a *nation*.\nwallmoj: Genetically, Tibetans are actually very similar to Chinese. I don't think it would be truly wrong to say they're Chinese, but over time the Tibetan nation had developed it's own identity.\n\nAnyway, I doubt we'll ever agree about the nation thing considering how we clearly see the definition differently. \nI do thank you for the debate though, and wish you the best.\nkerm1tthefrog: You don't understand what he wants to say.\n","num_messages":18,"avg_score":147.6111111111,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0496,"11":0.0439,"12":0.0396,"13":0.0374,"14":0.0359,"15":0.0349,"2":0.3368,"3":0.2249,"4":0.1751,"5":0.1323,"6":0.0951,"7":0.0761,"8":0.0664,"9":0.0563},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.1897,"3":0.3316,"4":0.2856,"5":0.2605,"6":0.243,"7":0.2289,"8":0.2147,"9":0.2022},"special_characters_ratio":0.2220795892,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.5235294118,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":414.1}

What they had, for that time, was mindblowing. Even the democratic giant Athens didn\u2019t treat women right while Egypt did.\n\nWomen could be merchants, medics, priests, enterprenuers as well as *army generals*. When their husband dies they used to become the head of family. In any case, mother\u2019s name was always next to the child\u2019s name instead of father\u2019s. People were introducing themselves with saying who is their mother. Also, female children inherited just as much as the boys after their parents\u2019 deaths. \n\nWomen could also become extremely rich with exclusively their own work of any kind. The graves of female faraons were all in gold and more wealthy looking than some of the male ones. \n\nMany historians explain this, for that untolerant time, unusual phenomenon with an explanation that it was like that due to the inheritance of matriarchy. That hypothesis simply doesn\u2019t add up. \n\nIn the New Tsardom, way past the matriarchy period, women were treated better than in early years of the rise of Egypt. The status of women was getting better as time passed. At the point when Egypt couldn\u2019t be more further away from the period of matriarchy women were still getting more respected and equal to men.\nBentresh: Egypt was always a strongly patriarchal society, and I think we have to be careful not to overstate the freedoms and rights of women in ancient Egypt, especially when comparing the rights and activities of women in Egypt to women in contemporary societies. \n\nThere are virtually no references to female scribes after the Old Kingdom, and women seem to have been almost entirely excluded from government positions after that period. Even the roles and responsibilities of the queens, often the best attested women in ancient societies, are still poorly understood, though there is somewhat more evidence for the half dozen queens regnant like Hatshepsut. The entire corpus of letters written to and by royal women consists of a letter from the king of Mitanni to Tiye (18th Dynasty) and a few formulaic letters exchanged between Tuye and Nefertari and the Hittite court (19th Dynasty). We have nothing approaching the large amount of letters exchanged between Zimri-Lim and \u0160ibtu of Mari or Aqba-\u1e2bammu and Iltani of Karana (in modern Syria and Iraq, respectively), to say nothing of the extensive dossiers for Hittite queens like Pudu\u1e2bepa. \n\nWomen were excluded not only from the government but also from the military. There were a few remarkable exceptions like Ahhotep, who \"looked after her soldiers,\" but here too we have Bronze Age parallels, such as Fu Jing and Fu Hao of Shang China, who seemingly took a more direct role in military affairs. \n\nIt was not unusual for Egyptians to identify themselves by their mothers' names (e.g. Ahmose, son of Ebana), as you pointed out. That said, biographical inscriptions nearly always stress the importance of the authors' fathers rather than mothers. In the biography of Ahmose, for instance, he reveals that his father was a soldier, but we know nothing about his mother aside from her name.\n\n>I grew up in the town of Nekheb. My father was a soldier of King Seqenenre, justified, and was called Baba, son of Rainet.\n\nEgyptian women did engage in trade, exchanging goods and food produced at home for market goods, and could accumulate wealth. There is little evidence for Egyptian women engaging in long-distance trade, but we admittedly don't have much evidence for male merchants either. (For more on this, see Christopher Eyre's 1998 article \"The Market Women of Pharaonic Egypt\" in *Le commerce en \u00c9gypte ancienne*.) \n\nVery similar activities are attested for women in Mesopotamia. In her article \"Women Work, Men are Professionals in the Old Assyrian Private Archives,\" for example, Cecile Michel summarizes the economic activities of women in the Old Assyrian period.\n\n>Assyrian women appear as very active, both as housewives and heads of households, and in their contribution to the international trade. When producing textiles for Anatolia, they acted as true professionals. Indeed, their skills were recognized abroad, and they were paid for their work as weavers. With the money they earned, which built up their personal assets, independent of their husband\u2019s, they invested in trade and initiated financial operations...\n\nWomen are most prominent in the cultic sphere, and female musicians, singers, priestesses, and other cult personnel are well attested. This is not unique to Egypt, however, and similar activities are attested in Mesopotamian, Anatolian, and Mycenaean archives. Take, for example, the career of [Amat-Mamu of Sippar](https:\/\/www.brooklynmuseum.org\/eascfa\/dinner_party\/heritage_floor\/amat_mamu).\n\n>Amat-Mamu was a priestess and temple scribe in Sippar, a city of ancient Babylonia. She was a member of the gagum, a walled precinct with hundreds of houses inhabited exclusively by naditu women. Naditus came from the wealthiest families in Sippar; they controlled their own money and participated in the city\u2019s economy through investment and trade. They were prohibited from marrying or bearing children (the word naditum means \u201cfallow\u201d or \u201ctaboo\u201d), which greatly increased their life expectancy. Naditu documents indicate that Amat-Mamu was one of eight scribes within Sippar\u2019s gagum, and that her career spanned the reigns of three kings\u2014Hammurabi (1792\u20131750 B.C.E.), Samsuiluna (1749\u20131712 B.C.E.), and Abi-eshuh (1711\u20131684 B.C.E.).  Thus, she must have lived in the gagum for at least forty years.\n\nLaws regarding inheritance and economic activities in neighboring societies differed between regions and time periods. Inheritances were typically divided evenly between sons and daughters in the Old Assyrian period, and unmarried women in Syrian cities like Emar could inherit land and property as well. Mesopotamian women could manage businesses, buy and sell slaves and land, and engage in joint trade ventures (*\u1e2barr\u0101nu*), although they did so less often than their male counterparts. To cite a Neo-Assyrian example, [tablet ADD 0339](https:\/\/cdli.ucla.edu\/search\/search_results.php?SearchMode=Text&ObjectID=P335283) reveals that a *\u0161akintu* (harem manager) bought a plot of land.  \n\n>[An estate of x hectares] and 2 decares, a garden [...] \u2014\n\n>[NN], the harem manageress of [the central city harem], has contracted and bought it from Lu-te[...] for 5 minas and 10 she[kels of silver].\n\n>The money [is paid] completely. That estate is purc[hased and acquired. Any rev]ocation, lawsuit, or litig[ation is void].\nVisenyaRose: Also consider the beliefs in the Great Goddess Isis. Isis was the throne, AKA the power. Every Pharoah was her son and as such when taking the throne sat in her lap. That sort of matriarchal tradition wasn't there in Greece and Rome. Horus was considered the 'Son of Isis'. Prioritising his matriarchal lineage\nBentresh: The queen consort and queen mother held significant religious roles in Egypt and were often associated with Hathor and Isis,^1 but Egypt was never a matriarchal or even matrilineal society. Women ruled Egypt only under rare and extreme circumstances, and a prince did not have to be born of a king's daughter to ascend to the throne.^2 \n\nIt's worth noting that we have goddesses tied to kingship in Indo-European cultures despite their strongly patriarchal nature. Kingship was not a significant feature in classical Greek and Roman society relative to Pharaonic Egypt or the eastern Mediterranean during the Hellenistic period, but it was well-established among the Hittites, and there one finds the Hittite throne goddess \u1e2aalma\u0161uit. An excerpt from the ritual for the building of a new palace (KUB 29.1):\n\n>To me, the king, the gods have given many years, and the years are without limit for me. \u1e2aalma\u0161uit brought to me, the king, (authority in the form of) a couch and throne from the sea. \n\nThe sovereignty goddess of early Ireland are another example, though they conferred kingship through a sacred marriage rather than by giving birth. \n\nIn any case, we do not have a good understanding of how kingship and royal succession worked in the Bronze Age Aegean. Certainly it was not uncommon for would-be kings to marry royal women in Greek mythology, though it is unclear whether this was necessary or simply politically expedient. Menelaus became king of Sparta upon marrying Helen, the suitors of Ithaca sought to marry Penelope, Oedipus became king of Thebes upon marrying Jocasta, and Aegisthus became king of Mycenae after murdering Agamemnon and marrying Clytemnestra, to name only a few examples. \n\n^1 Addressed at length by Lana Troy in *Patterns of Queenship in Ancient Egyptian Myth and History* (1986). \n\n^2 See Gay Robins, \"A critical examination of the theory that the right to the throne of ancient Egypt passed through the female line in the 18th dynasty,\" *G\u00f6ttinger Miszellen* 62: 67-77.

Thanks for taking the time to open the link.\n\nAs I've been building Chinese vocabulary, I've been trying to make character etymology my foundation as an alternative to rote memorization.  In doing so, I encountered radicals that were called 2nd heavenly stem, 5th heavenly stem and so on.  There were also terrestrial branches, and strange time demarcations.  \n\nI'm insanely curious about the philosophies that these stem from, and I'm looking for something between the frou frou New Age Western adaptation of Daoism and an inanely specific academic research paper.

The first important dichotomy you need to file away is Philosophical-spiritual Daoism vs early religious Daoism, contemporary religious Daoism is a cultural syncretism of Buddhist and Confucian ritual and theology with Daoist ideology and other folk practice. Philosophical-Spiritual Daoism is the main source of religious daoism, the other being folk practices, the Daodejing is the first, and most obvious, the Zhuangzi and the Liezi following the philosophic tradition. These three texts form the ideological crux of 'Daoism', and alone make up the basis of Philosophical Daoism, Religious Daoism incorporates these ideological bases alongside extant or wholly new (and later often Buddhist) mythological constructs. \n\nAs for 'celestial stems' I am less familiar, I believe they have to do with numerical and ordering systems, and thus relate to the veneration and recording of ancestors, which further relates it's usage in death ritual and memorial recording. This kind of Daoism falls out of my specialty, but I am very interested in what you are learning! I've you like to ask, or wouldn't mind being asked, some questions about this material, please message me! \nDomhnal: Thanks for the thoughtful reply.  \n\nThese celestial stems seem to predate Laozi and his contemporaries by a lot, fist appearing during the Shang dynasty - the second of the three kings that Confucius mythologies from time to time, and the last of which saw Laozi and his philosophies near its end before the Warring States period.\n\nFrom the [Wikipedia page](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Celestial_stem), I've gathered that these radicals are for the purpose of astrology.  But like Western astrology, there is a deep symbolic mythos as many of the stems are called things like \"the warming principle, the sun's penetrating fertilization of the earth, the masculine principle\".  These certainly pertain to the ideas of Yin and Yang, but I wasn't even aware how remote in time these concepts are from Laozi's philosophies.  \n\nAnd we can certainly message one another as the research ensues!\n\nThanks, again!\n","num_messages":3,"avg_score":2.3333333333,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0419,"11":0.0403,"12":0.0386,"13":0.0311,"14":0.0215,"15":0.0122,"2":0.2972,"3":0.1851,"4":0.1406,"5":0.0975,"6":0.0695,"7":0.062,"8":0.0521,"9":0.0455},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0127,"4":0.0,"5":0.0,"6":0.0,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.1957880882,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.4620253165,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":374.7}

Apparently the universe is just over 200 years old. Need help.\n**TL;DR** (Too Long, DON'T Read): Learned history in Australian high-school some years ago. Really only covers about 200 years and is extremely inward-looking. Have read and watched a lot about history in my own time, but looking for accessible learning resources that would develop more of a proper historian's perspective on things. Skip to the last paragraph for more details as to what I mean.\n\n\n\nThe following is an over-the-top rant with a bit of context.\n\nHistory has always been a massive passion of mine; I have spent countless hours navigating the wondrous rabbit hole of Wikipedian links, watching documentaries, reading biographies, and even playing historically-accurate computer games [(shout out to the wonderful people at Europa Barbarorum)](http:\/\/www.europabarbarorum.com).\n\nThis passion was acquired at a very young age, but not really nurtured in my years as an Australian high-school student (can't speak for the current curriculum, but I was schooled from 2005-2010). In the first year, it was briefly mentioned that there were some places called Egypt and Britain where some history had happened. Pick one and make a poster with some spears on it. The subsequent years were spent repetitively learning the following:\n\nAboriginals were here first (just in case the name didn't give it away). Then British and Irish peoples came here. We Federated. Have a parliament. Parliament made a succession of real shitty laws regarding Aboriginals and people got increasing jack of those laws. Fought some wars in between persecuting Aboriginals. One of the Prime Ministers was sacked. The end.\n\nI don't have a problem with the heavy emphasis on the indigenous peoples of this nation- it's probably the one thing the course covers really well in regard to the laws and referendums. However, we don't learn much of our history before European settlement, and it's quite a sanitised version (for example, we skipped the debate as to whether the disappearance of indigenous Tasmanians was due to acts of genocide, [though I doubt there's many historians who would say the settlers didn't at least have a fair crack at it](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Aboriginal_Tasmanians)). It felt a lot like a patronising lip-service to a much-shat-on people just to make sure that politicians and bureaucrats can claim that they've been politically correct enough, because racism doesn't poll well anymore.\n\nWhen the course touched on places outside Australia, it was only in regard to our British\/Irish settlement, the Boer War, Great War, WWII, and Vietnam. Great, the World Wars in particular provide an excellent chance to get some global perspective at the same time as exploring our own history directly right? No. Australia's involvement in any of the given conflicts was too important to allow for discussion of silly, insignificant, made-up places. Like Russia. \n\nI think it's important to study the history of where you're from, but when you only cover a 200 year window you miss the point of history. It's always repeating. You learn from it, open your eyes, and try to steer away from repeating the unpleasant bits. Even whilst remaining quite inward-looking, you still have ample opportunity to study other cultures. What of at least comparing Australian history with the countless other examples of colonialism, whether it be Europeans to the Americas or Phoenicians to North Africa? What of looking at the experiences of other nations involved in our conflicts? Don't even bother mentioning Napoleon, Augustus, Alexander, Bismarck, the Ptolemies, Socrates, Attila, the Crusades, Muhammad, Ghengis, Hannibal... Too many people here don't know that the American War of Independence and the American Civil War aren't the same thing. Goths are people who wear black. Mel Gibson taught us most of what we know about Scotland, England, America, and Freedom. Your best bet for developing a taste for history here is a chance childhood viewing of a movie or documentary, or playing a video game. Your education must be self-directed from there. I already loved history, and the exposure at school pushed me away from pursuing it as a viable senior subject or university degree (which is a huge regret of mine, as I'm sure that at these levels it's just great).\n\nNow I've mentioned that I've pursued my passion for history in private, but it's surely subject to my personal biases, and my understanding has never been tested to ensure that I've not misinterpreted events or missed crucial lessons. What I'm looking for is a list of recommended and accessible learning resources. Not a proper course to enrol in, but one example of a thing I'd be interested in is quality open courseware from good universities- especially anything that incorporated some form of  exercises with examples or solutions to test your understanding against. Don't really want places that list fun facts. A good, structured exploration of key moments from any part of history that not only lists dates and events but draws potential lessons and conclusions from said events (without having an agenda). For example I'm reading works such as The Wealth of Nations and The Prince, but I'd like someone more qualified than me to explain their context, discuss their impacts, make sure that I know what is being said, and don't just let my ego get away with assuming that I've understood. Something that progressed from a junior to a more advanced university level would be ideal. Not after any period or culture specifically, anything that fits the description is great.\n\nSorry about the rant. Passion and an unrequited love of history and all that. Thanks a bunch in advance.\n\nTheophrastusBmbastus: [*Worlds Together, Worlds Apart: A history of the world from 1000 to the Present*](http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Worlds-Together-Apart-History-Present\/dp\/0393934942) is a good, introductory global history by some Princeton historians.  They also run a MOOC every once in a while built around that text.\n\nAnd I know this isn't quite what you asked for, but check out Paul Carters *Road to Botany Bay.*  It's a history of Australia, in a way, but it's also a massive criticism of the way the history of Australia is usually written, and even of the standard mode of history telling itself.  Given your own experience, you might find his critique works for you.  It really knocked my socks off when I read it.  Very dense and theoretical, though. \nGrimmestFandango: This is exactly the sort of response I was after. A good text plus some MOOC's is perfect. Also very interested to read the Paul Carter suggestion.

Unable to breach the walls of Volohai, Genghis Khan resorted to a clever trick. He sent a message from his encampment to the Tangut general announcing that he would end his siege in exchange for a gift of one thousand cats and ten thousand swallows. Astonished by the unusual request, the fortress commander gratefully complied. After the animals arrived in the Mongol camp, Genghis Khan ordered his men to tie a small cotton-wool tuft to the tail of each creature then set the tuft afire. When the panicked and frightened animals were turned loose, they made directly for their nests and lairs inside Volohai, igniting hundreds of small fires. While the panicked defenders were preoccupied with putting out fires, Genghis Khan's warriors stormed the city in conquest. \n\nIf you want more info - [http:\/\/www.koreanhistoryproject.org\/Ket\/C05\/E0507.htm](http:\/\/www.koreanhistoryproject.org\/Ket\/C05\/E0507.htm)\nrayner1: Ahh cool. I did some quick investigation in the Chinese wiki pages (again, not reliable), the fortress of Volohai is gone and it's near the banner of Urad Middle. Unfortunately, quick searches do not indicate Genghis Khan used this tactic but just said it was a big fortress. However, i cant say it's not true and if it's true, it wouldnt surprise.

They spent generations winning most of the major battles. But when the French lost, the English just burnt villages for another few years. When the English lost, they lost everything. And a few victories in a row ended the war.\nslacker25: > Longbowmen were quite popular as mercenaries in Italy.\n\nInteresting, I didn't know that.

There's no scoreboard available or anything but, IIRC, the french army won pretty much every land engagement it got into during Charles V's time and after the death of Henry V.\n\nI always got the feeling that each side had two winning streaks and two losing ones, with France always capitalizing better on theirs, but I won't pretend to be an expert or anything.\nJack_Shaftoe21: >Eh, Idk. There's no scoreboard available or anything but, IIRC, the  french army won pretty much every land engagement it got into during  Charles V's time and after the death of Henry V.\n\nIn Charles's V's time the French usually avoided pitched battles, this worked out pretty well for them (but not so well for the peasants who couldn't hide in the fortified towns and castles fast enough when the English or the bandits who claimed to be fighting for England ravaged the countryside). And after the death of Henry V there were still great English victories like the Battle of Verneuil in 1424. The English certainly won most of the major battles overall, but they never had enough men and money to effectively occupy the lands that they conquered. They had to rely on the local nobility except for some key fortresses like Calais - but garrisons like that of Calais cost a huge amount of money, so this method was of very limited use. So, once the French got their act together, they could methodically reconquer the lost territory, in many cases by simply bribing the local nobles into switching sides once again.\n","num_messages":5,"avg_score":6.8,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0587,"11":0.0553,"12":0.053,"13":0.0496,"14":0.0457,"15":0.0437,"2":0.2986,"3":0.1731,"4":0.1309,"5":0.1013,"6":0.0814,"7":0.0708,"8":0.0654,"9":0.0605},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.1431,"3":0.3521,"4":0.3092,"5":0.2758,"6":0.2423,"7":0.2152,"8":0.188,"9":0.1623},"special_characters_ratio":0.204298291,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.453525641,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":508.5}

It was like a hop, skip and a jump from Roman Britain, to mediaeval warfare to the industrial revolution.\n\nAnd then 2 years learning the precise details, dates, and important clauses of every significant international treaty between 1918 and 1939, and the names of significant old Bolsheviks murdered during the purges.

Did they have to boil it like we do today if we want to drink water from a natural source, or did they simply have stronger immune systems that prevented them from falling ill due to drinking \"raw water\"?\nDeuce232: They just got sick more often.  \n\n\nYou *can* drink 'raw water' btw.  We just like to avoid the risks these days.\nHandsome_Claptrap: Your guts also get used if you start to do so, reducing the Ill effects (but not completely canceling them). If a US or European drank tap water in the bad parts of South-Eastern Asia, he would get diarrhea in a whim, but locals drink it every day.\nTheWrangledOne: It's also important to note that VERY early versions of man still had an appendix, so their bodies could filter bacteria out of food and drink\nFriendoftheDork: We still have appendices... well not me but those of us who have not had it removed.\nTheWrangledOne: The modern appendix is vestigial, meaning it is completely useless, but served a use for our ancestors. Back in prehistory, the appendix served to digest raw meat and water with contaminated bacteria in it, and served a vital role in our digestive system. When man discovered fire and began to cook food, the appendix was rendered useless, and thus mankind gradually evolved away from having functioning appendices.\nMemesAreBad: I don't know how true the second part of that is, but the appendix is only debatably vestigial. It's more common now to believe it serves a role in the immune system.\nTheWrangledOne: I've seen that's true in some animals, but I thought in humans it actually is vestigial\nMemesAreBad: That was the predominant theory for a very long time, but evidence over the last few decades shows otherwise. Since this isn't an \/r\/askscience question, I'll just link the [Wikipedia](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Appendix_\\(anatomy\\)#Functions).\nTheWrangledOne: Interesting. So it has evolved a lot and been lost about six times. I think this is really interesting to consider, even the wikipedia article references it having a vestigial nature, but it is not ENTIRELY vestigial then.\nMemesAreBad: It's certainly very interesting! It's accepted that removing it is never advisable unless necessary, but that's primarily because of the risks of major surgery. In this context I think it's possible that it was more useful 10,000 years ago, but that's (a) pretty short scale for human evolution, and (b) Occam's Razor would suggest it's still more likely that people did just get sick more often. \n\nIn general when people ask, \"how did people deal with X disease\/health issue 500 years ago\" the answer is: they didn't. Looking at how giving birth has gone from a huge risk for the mother to having an incredibly low mortality rate is evidence of that.\nTheWrangledOne: It's not they they just didnt pay attention to the issue, it's just that oftentimes they didnt really know how to deal with it. With birth, it became more common to see that as an innate risk of childbearing as opposed to a problem. Some cultures even honored women who died during childbirth (the Norse are a good example of this).\nMemesAreBad: Oh I never meant to imply otherwise; that was my point: they couldn't do anything, and the person just died. Many modern medical problems then that would kill you are solved by antibiotics now. In general when people ask how how people used to survive these illnesses without medication, the answer is just that they didn't.\nTheWrangledOne: Or at the very least, it was very unlikely.

If there is a modern counterpart to Saturnalia, that would be the carnival, not Christmas (please note, that Saturnalia were part of Brumalia, a late Autumn carnival that lasted for an entire month) . Today, the latter are a very festive, lavish holiday, but it is pretty much quite modern phenomenon. In the first centuries of the Christianity's existence, this holiday did not exist and until the end of Middle Ages, Christmas was not that of an important holiday (think Pentecost in Catholic Church today) and was not too festive for a common man. The main holiday for a Christian was, and in Orthodox Church still is the Easter.\n\nThis changed only in 16th century, as Protestants started to differentiate from Catholics, what led to some changes in the holiday observances. Christmas became more and more festive, although it gained its modern character only in 19th century. Thus, most of the alleged similarities between Christmas and Saturnalia are pretty modern invention, with no continuity between them and the Roman traditions.\nSarahDrish: Christmas became festive long before the 19th century. The Lord of Misrule, the Feast of Fools and other \"role inversion\" practices go back centuries, probably millennia. In 1329, Bishop John Grandisson of Exeter expressed concern that the Feast of the Holy Innocents, which was celebrated on December 28, had degenerated into irreverent and disorderly activities. By the 17th century, the Christmas celebration in England had become so debauched that the Puritans deemed it pagan and declared it a \"stench to Puritan nostrils\" and those who settled in America forbade the celebration of Christmas. In fact, it wasn't until 1856 that Christmas became an official holiday in the state of Massachusetts.

I'll wait.\nsovietygo: I actually have read the report, and plenty of the great books on the assassination. I've read the great books for and against the position, and I stick by my position that the actors involved in the Warren Commission did not have as their first concern\/priority a full and proper investigation of the actual plot that killed JFK.\n\nIf there literally was not even a shadow of a doubt that Oswald acted alone more people would think so. In fact, only about 20% of Americans polled believe Oswald acted alone. Polled 40 years after the assassination a whopping 75% of Americans polled believed in a conspiracy was the cause. Your view is the minority position. And frankly I don't think I'd have much luck convincing someone with your attitude of anything regardless of how much I know\n\nsource: http:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/8301-201_162-57584061\/poll-continued-belief-in-jfk-conspiracy\/\n\nedit: to address your point, there are problems with the report. Think about how we know now that the CIA, FBI, and other central actors vitally important to the investigation withheld evidence. The single bullet theory was conceived by LAWYERS not experts on ballistics guns etc. Most importantly the commission DID NOT WANT TO DISCOVER A LARGER CONSPIRACY. the central actors involved were more interested in moving on.\naidrocsid: >If there literally was not even a shadow of a doubt that Oswald acted alone more people would think so.\n  \nNope. This doesn't follow. It's an inversion of *argumentum ad populum*. There was once a time when most people believed in a geocentric solar system, but that didn't make it true. \n  \n>And frankly I don't think I'd have much luck convincing someone with your attitude of anything regardless of how much I know\n  \nThis is an *ad hominem*. His position is irrelevant to the amount of evidence you have that the Warren Commission is unreliable.  \n\nDo you have an actual logical reason for doubting the Warren Commission or just irrelevant opinion polls, assertions, and deflection?\nsovietygo: lol, I've taken an intro logic class before.\nI've already cited logical reasons for doubting the Warren Commission, and so have plenty of super smart academics who continue to publish research doubting the commission and the government explanation. There's an incredible amount of evidence showing that our political leaders did not do all they could have done to get to the bottom of the killing, that's not even debatable at this point\naidrocsid: And yet you come at me with *yet another fallacy*. Go back to school, guy. If you have evidence stop blowing  hot air and present it. \nsovietygo: lol. redditors. love it.\naidrocsid: Shove off you ignorant twat. \nR_Endymion: No really, I'm not a trans-phobic sexist bigot! I just use gendered and trans-phobic slurs. That doesn't make me a bigot!\n\n-aidrocsid\n\naidrocsid: Go fuck yourself you weirdo stalker troll. \nR_Endymion: Ok bigot, sorry to bother you. :)\naidrocsid: So what's your wait between posts on this account? 9 minutes?\nR_Endymion: It's like 5 minutes or so. It's pretty low when you use an email account, even when it's new and all your posts are downvoted by MRAs.\naidrocsid: Not an MRA, but you keep stalking me and I'll keep downvoting. ;) \nR_Endymion: Just a transphobic\/sexist biggot? Sometimes I get confused, you people all seem the same to me. I wasn't really stalking you, I just got home from work and I had an orangered from earlier. I just found it adorable that one of your posts of the day had a sexist slur.\naidrocsid: Sorry, I don't buy into your silly little \"sexist slur\" nonsense. I get that you think women need to be coddled, you're a sexist, but I disagree. I still find it hilarious that you keep calling me transphobic. \nR_Endymion: Yes, because bigotry is a myth(except against men!) and there's no such thing as sexist\/transphobic slurs, such as the ones you use quite liberally.\naidrocsid: Ah yes, those elusive transphobic slurs that are all up in my post history nowhere at all. Anyway, it's been fun dear, but you're really not my type. Go fuck off to SRS with the rest of your ilk. \nR_Endymion: Its cute how you focus on the slur you can refute with supposed misintentions and not the one that is direct and just a few posts up. Somehow, after you using the slur here, I'm less inclined to believe you calling people \"it\" isn't what you claim it to be and is in fact just simple transphobia. Occams razor and all.\naidrocsid: The difference is that trans people actually face discrimination that has no remote equivalent in the experiences of cisgendered people. What you want is for women and the words that refer to their vaginas to be put on a pedestal, and you can go fuck your entitled self. You'll find no pathetic servant here, no bowing and scraping from this one. I support gender *equality* not gender *supremacy*. \nR_Endymion: As do I. I simply don't perceive the effects of the patriarchy(or whatever you'd like to refer to the social imbalance as) to be equal to men and women. That's as insulting as implying that the inequalities experienced by transgendered people and women are equal.\naidrocsid: It's really not, though, and the fact that you assert that it is is erasure. You're the one saying sexism against men *isn't possible*. You're the one who makes it about the oppression olympics with your narrow sexist pseudofeminism. \nR_Endymion: I don't understand your position. You put trans slurs above slurs targeting women, but when I put womans issues above mens issues it's erasure? I'm not saying trans issues aren't above womens issues, in fact, they are, but why does it not apply to the inequality between the cissexes?\n\naidrocsid: Because gender isn't intersectionally equivalent to gender conformity. \n","num_messages":26,"avg_score":5.9615384615,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0501,"11":0.0466,"12":0.044,"13":0.0396,"14":0.0363,"15":0.0342,"2":0.3127,"3":0.1905,"4":0.1382,"5":0.1013,"6":0.0792,"7":0.0676,"8":0.0613,"9":0.0553},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0378,"3":0.0964,"4":0.0734,"5":0.0658,"6":0.0582,"7":0.0522,"8":0.0463,"9":0.042},"special_characters_ratio":0.2128373654,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.4991482112,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":495.0}

So not that many was addicted to coffee prior the age of exploration when coffee was easy to export since it doesn't need to be fresh but could be dried to last the voyage across the atlantic. \n\nWith a higher supply of coffee the price went down and more and more of the poppulation of europe became interested in the goods from the new world. sugar, coffee, tobacco all became highly consumated and got a high demand because one didn't have to be rich to afford those goods. \n\nDuring a long time in the 16th-17th century coffee was acutally banned in the ottoman empire, because of many reasons. One reason being how it affected the human body, the name coffee it from the arabic word qah\u0101 which means \"to lack hunger\" coffee lowers the bloods iron intake and thus makes one feel less hungry.\n\nAn other reason is because it's a social drink. One takes a cup of coffee with a friend and all of a sudden rebellious thoughts could be raised. So to keep stabillity of the realm up coffee was outlawed.\n\n","num_messages":4,"avg_score":3.5,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0468,"11":0.0413,"12":0.0385,"13":0.0361,"14":0.0293,"15":0.0235,"2":0.3249,"3":0.2187,"4":0.1654,"5":0.1246,"6":0.0954,"7":0.0793,"8":0.0667,"9":0.0539},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0239,"4":0.0056,"5":0.0,"6":0.0,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2230915126,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.5203366059,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":253.0}

Comparing India and the West\nI would like to discuss whether or not India in pre-modern times had bonds that could be called \"proto-national\", or that represented an early form of modern, pan-Indian nationalism. My answer to this question is a clear and firm NO; India, in my view, had nothing that could remotely approach modern pan-Indian nationalism until the 19th century, and this nationalism largely emerged as a reaction against British imperialism. Without the British, it would be extremely unlikely, in my view, that any nation-state called \"India\" spanning the majority of the Indian subcontinent would ever come into existence.\n\nTo start off the discussion, I would like to refute some common Indian nationalist arguments that I have seen by drawing a comparison between pre-modern India and the pre-modern West (which essentially includes all lands from Portugal to Poland). Both of these entities were extremely diverse and were made up of many constituent parts that can be said to have a common \"civilization\" and common cultural elements, but nothing remotely approaching a sense of common nationality or national identity. Let me compare pre-modern India and the pre-modern West more explicitly, and demonstrate the fallacies of the Indian nationalist position:\n\n* Indian nationalists claim that pre-colonial India was a single country because elites and educated people in almost all parts of India, from Kashmir to Kerala, learned and used Sanskrit. However, this is no different from the position of Latin in the West. Latin was used by intellectuals throughout Europe, and almost all scientists and scholars wrote their most important works in Latin, including Nicholas Copernicus from Poland, Galileo Galilei from Italy, Johannes Kepler from Germany, Rene Descartes from France, Isaac Newton from England, Carl Linnaeus from Sweden, and numerous others. Following the invention of the printing press, around 70% of Renaissance texts were printed in Latin, and not in regional languages like English, French, or German.\n\n* Indian nationalists claim that pre-colonial India was a single country because of pilgrimage sites located throughout India that attracted Hindus, sometimes from distant corners of India. Once again, this is no different from what we see in Europe. Since early medieval times, we have Christian pilgrimage sites which attracted people from all across Europe. The most important such site was Rome, which housed the holy relics of St. Peter and St. Paul, but there were also many others like Tours in France (where the relics of the famous St. Martin are housed), Canterbury in England, and Santiago de Compostela in Spain. For medieval and early modern Europeans, such pilgrimage sites were of immense importance. Likewise, many monasteries across Europe were founded by people who came from different parts of Europe. For example, the Irish saint Columbanus founded the abbeys of Luxeil in France and Bobbio in Italy, while his disciple St. Gall founded the abbey of the same name in Swtizerland. All of these disparate, diverse regions of Europe shared a common Christian culture, and by the High Middle Ages, Christian monk could travel from Italy to France to Ireland to Sweden to Poland without crossing the boundaries of this common civilization.\n\n* Indian nationalists claim that pre-colonial India was a single country because individuals like the philosopher Adi Shankara could travel from Kerala to Kashmir unmolested, and without being killed or shunned as an \"outsider\". Once again, this is no different from what we see in the West. In Europe, numerous teachers, philosophers, scientists, etc. traveled freely between countries and were patronized by rulers of different ethnicities from their own. The medieval philosopher William Ockham, for example, was born in England, but traveled to France to become a lecturer at the University of Paris, and later was patronized by Louis IV of Bavaria in southern Germany. The great anatomist Andreas Vesalius was born in Brussels in what is now Belgium, but traveled to Italy where he became a professor at the University of Padua, and later became the physician of Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor. The astronomer Tycho Brahe was born in what is now Sweden, but was invited to serve Emperor Rudolf II in Bohemia, in what is now the modern-day Czech Republic. We can list many more such examples.\n\n* Indian nationalists claim that pre-colonial India was a single country because of a semi-mythical entity called \"Bharatavasha\" which is occasionally depicted as stretching from the Himalayas to the southern ocean. However, Europeans from Early Middle Ages onward also had a concept that they belonged to a common entity called \"Europe\". For example, the *Life of Gertrude* states that the Abbess Gertrude of Nivelles (in modern-day Belgium) was, by leading an exemplary Christian life full of piety, \"well-known to all the inhabitants of Europe\"; this demonstrates that the entity called \"Europe\" was not merely geographical, but was being defined in terms of a common Christian culture. Perhaps more concretely, following the Battle of Poitiers in which the Christian Franks repulsed the Muslim invaders, the chronicle *Continuatio hispania* described the victory at Poitiers as a [\"victory for the Europeans\"](https:\/\/books.google.com\/books?id=AA6ZsZhwU5oC&pg=PA115&dq=%22as+a+victory+for+the+Europeans%22&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0CB0Q6AEwAGoVChMI-szvk7nUxwIVzwOSCh0jjAVZ#v=onepage&q=%22as%20a%20victory%20for%20the%20Europeans%22&f=false), making it clear that the term \"European\" referred to the Christian inhabitants of the continent. Do we have a single text from medieval times that similarly describes a Hindu victory over Muslim armies as a \"victory for all Indians\"? To the best of my knowledge, the answer is \"no\".\n\n\nFrom this brief comparison of India and the West in pre-modern times, I think it should be clear that India was no more of a \"nation\" than Europe was. Both could be labeled as \"civilizations\" whose constituent parts shared some overarching cultural elements, but nothing more. What are the opinions of others on this topic?\nimnottheoneyouhunt: There are historic and prehistoric names which define the Indian subcontinent as one nation.\n\nIts a land isolated by geography and has a shared history.\nThere have been times when majority of the subcontinent was united many times in the midst of all the chaos.\nPeddaKondappa: >There are historic and prehistoric names which define the Indian subcontinent as one nation.\n\nLike what?\n\n>There have been times when majority of the subcontinent was united many times in the midst of all the chaos.\n\nWhy does that make the subcontinent a single nation? The Mediterranean world from Spain to Syria was united for many centuries under a single empire (Rome). Is the Mediterranean world a single nation?\ndumbest123: >The true nations of India are found in the individual ethno-linguistic groups, such as Telugus, Tamils, Marathis, etc.\n\nFrom your own hitstory, what makes Indian divided states based on language just 40 years ago legitimate states ? They never in their history united . As for your question regarding India being nation state in past has no bearing on future , no country in world have same boundaries they keep changing, its clear from your history you have an agenda . \nPeddaKondappa: Of course I have an agenda. That should be obvious. Do you think having an agenda makes me wrong?\n\nA \"nation\" is defined as a group of people with a common language, culture, identity, etc. States like Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Maharashtra, etc. are based on such ethno-linguistic ties. On the other hand, the erstwhile Madras Presidency was merely a geographic expression. It doesn't matter if \"they never in their history united\", because nationalism itself is a modern phenomenon enabled by print culture and a widespread awareness of cultural similarities among large numbers of people. An average Tamil man in the 11th century may not have been aware of a larger Tamil nation or ethnic group, but in the 21st century he is definitely aware of this Tamil nation. Even in Europe, nation-states only emerged after the 18th century.\n\n\ndumbest123: So basically don't like multi cultural and diversity .\n","num_messages":6,"avg_score":0.3333333333,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0492,"11":0.0471,"12":0.0452,"13":0.0435,"14":0.0428,"15":0.0417,"2":0.3198,"3":0.1936,"4":0.1437,"5":0.1087,"6":0.0841,"7":0.0682,"8":0.057,"9":0.0519},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.033,"3":0.1553,"4":0.1039,"5":0.079,"6":0.0673,"7":0.0564,"8":0.0486,"9":0.0408},"special_characters_ratio":0.1969987995,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.477786438,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":299.2}

Governments are monolithical structures. You have different ministries, each with thousand employees, with different ministers guiding them. You have many personalities and many institutiones, each and every one of them pursuing their own agenda. The CIA is just one of them.

Instead of being a colonial empire or the 19th Century style empire, the United States' empire is hegemonic.\n\nNotice that English is becoming the world's first universal language - it is the most commonly taught second language, and it is also the most commonly spoken language in the world.\n\nAdditionally, American culture (music, television, movies, etc.) are all widely known and copied world-wide. I was speaking with a pair of German teachers recently and they were commenting that their students followed the Los Angeles Lakers games. That is rather telling about the strength of American culture.\n\nSecondly, today's standard of living in the United States far outstrips the standard of living Americans had at any other point in US history. Moreover, the standard of living in the United States is equal to or better than any other comparable region in the world.\n\nFinally, both economically and population-wise, the United States can only be reasonably compared to other enormously powerful states & regions - China, Russia, Brazil, and Europe as a whole. In the various match-ups, the United States generally compares favorably, speaking to its various competitors. For example, even though the United States is often compared poorly to various European countries on standardized tests, when it is compared to Europe as a whole, the United States is quite competitive. \ntadashinae: I disagree. Hereunder adressing points one by one:\n\n1. The United States are not an empire. US is one among many strong powers. Russia, China and EU are all very strong, and more countries are upcoming (India, Brazil).\n\n2. English language came from England, not US. Yes, US like all other countries adopted English.\n\n3. American culture is very dominant, especially music and movies. The rest of American culture is pretty nonexistant in Scandinavia for example (with the exception of Halloween).\n\n4. The standard of living in the US is worse than the standard of living in Scandinavia. Depending on view, I would also add a lot other european countries such as France, Germany, United Kingdoms et cetera to the list of countries being better to live in than the US.\n\n5. The US economy is smaller than the EU economy. I do not know the numbers for China, Russia, Brazil et cetera - but they are also main contenders to the throne.\n\n\nEDIT: And we are not even considering the US lack of Human Right acknowledgement in their actions.\nodd_badger: Comparing the US to the EU is not very fair, at least in economics. While both having separate micro economies, states of the United States are not comparable to the UK or Germany. \ntadashinae: I agree it is hard to do a comparison. However, how else to do it?\n\nEDIT:\nSorry, I edited my text to provide for a more meaningful discussion\nodd_badger: It was wrong when the US was bigger than the EU and it is still wrong now.\n\nIf I could go back in time and slap the writers of textbooks I would.\ntadashinae: Either way, it proves the point that US is not some sort of superpower economy wise.

Such as language.\nI have recently acquired some interest in languages, mainly regional variants, and came across several instances of education suppression of different language use. I've read about;\n\n\n* [American Indian boarding schools](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/American_Indian_boarding_schools), in which native language was forbidden\t\n\n* [The lack of dialects in Russia, one reason being compulsory education](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Russian_language#Dialects)\n\n* The Chinese state allegedly moving Uyghur and Tibetan youth to schools were Mandarin is the norm (read it today, can't find the source for it)\n\n* [Welsh Not](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Welsh_Not), [Vergonha](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Vergonha), [Dialect card](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Dialect_card)\n\nAdditionally, Dutch research showed there still being a negative attitude towards dialects, and while there might not be physical punishment there seems to be social and institutionalized disapproval; children with dialects are seen as - by teachers - less intelligent and so on and so on. I say institutionalized because of the dominance of linguistic prescriptivism as opposed to linguistic description. In other words, there's importance placed on correct language, of which a majority of the linguistics would actually say that correct language hardly exists. Linguistics in the Netherlands suggested to teach actual linguistics in school to combat certain misunderstandings about language use, but this was disapproved of by the government.\n\nSo I am curious in how much education has been used as a tool of suppression or oppression in particular towards (other) cultures, not limited to language. I suppose I can expect the use of education by the Nazi's, which is fine. I do not mean to discuss propaganda in general that's used in education unless it relates to the oppression\/suppression of a culture. \n\nIf you contribute, thank you for doing so.\ntroubleintechnicolor: So so much. Especially in the case of minority language speakers. I actually wrote a rather long thesis on this, but TLDR: To think of it one way, education is an indoctrination into certain types of thought, beliefs, historical narratives and languages. It makes sense that the powerful group who is writing the curriculum would perpetuate their language and culture over others they think are inferior. Examples of groups whose languages the powerful elite have attempted to wipe out through education: Amazigh (Berbers) in N. Africa and Quechua in S. America. Both also did\/do come up with some very creative resistance strategies, most of which also centered around education. \nAntinero: I've read somewhere that Quechua might be itself a sort of forced language by the Inca empire. I am not certain and as Google does not give any quick results, I am without a source. \n\nEducation itself is portrayed as positive and mainly about learning, \nbut it seems to have a much darker history and not all is what it seems. For modern Western education I think it goes a bit too far to call it indoctrination, as there's more openness and freedom, but it still relies on homogenization and there is a certain bias towards the powerful and the normative. With normative here I mean both that which is established and considered normal, and that which is part of the majority and thus considered normal.\n\nI thought the teachers (unconscious?) negative attitude towards dialect was an interesting example. It is a less severe disapproval compared to physical punishment, but still a kind of disapproval and thus a sort of suppression of the language.\n\nI guess Michel Foucault has something to say about that, which I started reading some time ago but have yet to read again and finish.\n","num_messages":3,"avg_score":1.6666666667,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0661,"11":0.0572,"12":0.0528,"13":0.0502,"14":0.0478,"15":0.0458,"2":0.2897,"3":0.1824,"4":0.1408,"5":0.1093,"6":0.0957,"7":0.0895,"8":0.0827,"9":0.0741},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0174,"4":0.0,"5":0.0,"6":0.0,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.1940609534,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.5069444444,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":265.7}

Forcing people to kill and die for values and reasons that aren't their own is wrong. \nHadrianunlimited: whats the difference between that and paying taxes to support government programs you dont believe in. like being forced to pay taxes to pay the salary of government clerks who issue marriage licenses to gay couples if you beleive fervently that gay marriage is an abomination.  The situation is the same, in both cases you are compelled to do something you dont beleive in in support of a cause you dont beleive in. you cant have it both ways. You can try to argue that one involves killing, completely ignoring the fact that the grand majority of our military is non combat troops but also take into account that people on the religious right also beleieve in their hearts that gay marriage is damning someones soul for all eternity which is arguably worse than death. We as a society tell those people to suck it up so why shouldnt you be told the same? \n\nbear in mind this is for the sake or argument and not a personal attack on you. I am also going to the length to assume you are like myself a liberal because conservatives generally accept the validity of their obligations to the state though they grumble about taxes.\nAuto_Traitor: The difference being that I have a voice (however stifled it may be) in what I pay taxes for, for the most part. I wholeheartedly believe in voting and can accept if my opinion doesn't land on top. Being forced, *without the slightest sliver of say*, to invade a land, kill it's people, and be maimed or murdered because of some suit, will never be OK. I get zero choice in a draft. We've both seen that war can commence even if Congress says no, so no, I will never support a draft, especially when it means my life can be decided by basically one man or one small group of disconnected people for their personal interest and gain. \nHadrianunlimited: but you have the exact same voice by voting again in where we go to war. vote for the candidates (note candidates with an 's' because congress is as important as the president) who dont want to go to war. So there really isnt a difference. \nAuto_Traitor: You obviously didn't read my comment through, we've been to war even when Congress voted not to. Effectively making an active draft give one man or *small* group of people (not Congress) the power to send millions of young men to murder and die. If you don't believe me, [see for yourself.](http:\/\/www.infoplease.com\/us\/government\/war-without-congress.html)\n\n\nFor some reason you seem to think that we wouldn't go to war unless it was the right thing to do. You're dead wrong and I refuse to continue this conversation unless you educate yourself on this matter. \n\nThe reason the draft was put into hiatus was because people didn't want to fight or die in someone else's battle. The uproar over Vietnam was because we stuck our nose where it didn't belong and when people disagreed, the government forced our young men to fight and die for someone else's land and ideals. \n\n\"Suck it up\" is something to say about a voter's opinion, not about a rifle shoved in your hands. \n","num_messages":14,"avg_score":67.6428571429,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0361,"11":0.0333,"12":0.0319,"13":0.0309,"14":0.0246,"15":0.0196,"2":0.3173,"3":0.1965,"4":0.1362,"5":0.0909,"6":0.0657,"7":0.0549,"8":0.0473,"9":0.0422},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0414,"4":0.009,"5":0.0022,"6":0.0,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2140031646,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.5452513966,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":460.2}

How come it never really fell to the advances of agrarian societies?  I know the inhabitants were really powerful and all, but over history you see warlike pastoral tribal peoples being pushed out of their lands by the steady creep of agriculture and \"civilization\".  What allowed the Steppe resist this?\nMateo777: The same reason why sedentry civilizations never flourished in western North America, or the Pampas of South America.  Those regions were very difficult to farm due to unpredictable weather patterns, a normally dry climate, and less than favourable soils.  Even irrigation projects were difficult to undertake (and are still difficult).  \n\nThis made the steppe's economic value tied with animal products and subsistence herding.  The peoples there predictably lived a nomadic or semi-nomadic lifestyle.  \n\nI mean, really it wasn't until the 18th and 19th centuries that technology allowed for European farming techniques to be applied to the harsh landscape.  Inexpensive ploughs, barbed wire, and motorized vehicles really helped with this.  Even then the region was prone to the ill effects of deep ploughing methods (just as they were in North America).  It wasn't until the latter part of the 20th century where zero till practices were founded reducing erosion.  \n\nFarming today in regions like that is usually very captial intensive which can pose problems for poorer farmers.

Now it's important to remember that at that point in time, the Papacy was in Avignon, southern france, and basically the Pope was the vassal of the French king. Not on paper ofc, but it was in actuality they were. Everything the French king wanted, the pope granted. So since the French Monarch, king Phillip, was heavily in debt to the templars, instead of granting them more favors or dispensations or lands, he wanted to be rid of them and get all that they had. The crusading era for the french was over, they had no interest in being crusaders against the ottomans since they were a thorn in the side of the HRE, and thus a crusader order like the templars was useless. \n\nAdd to that things like the fact that the templars had secret ceremonies for their initiates, that the crusades in the holy land ended up in failure. Add that in order to get a confession they would resort to torture ( testimony must be gained under duress for it to be considered true ), and you can see how a lot of myth about templars could be started... a tortured man would admit to anything to put an end to his suffering. And a lot of templars said yes to it all.\nlingben: > The templars lend to the french king a lot of money\n\nhow did they get around the religious law against usury? weren't the Jews the only group that engaged in lending at that time?\n\nI've read online several explanations, none of which seem really grounded in evidence or persuasive enough. These include that they skirted the law by not charging interest but 'rent' or that the Church frowned on high interest rates so they lent below this unwritten ceiling and got away with it.\n\nAnyone know something definitive and sourced?\n\nThanks\nRainman105: The jews weren't the only money lenders in town. It's just that money lenders were a greater portion of the population than christians. But if you look at the first banks, they were christian merchant banks and guilds, not jewish moneylenders. These banks were tolerated by the church because they didn't dispense loans with usury but mostly with fixed return. \n\nThe church looked poorly upon money lending with usury, aka, at an interest. We don't have exact documents showing the nature of the loans between the crown of France and the templars, if they charged an interest or if they charged a fixed return. \n\nTo exemplify. Usury is lending as you know it today. You go to the bank and ask for a loan and they charge a percentage of interest in it. This is deceptive. A 20k euro loan with 8% interest for 2 years traduces into about 25k euros back. Now it doesn't take a mental giant to figure out that 5k is more than 8% of 20k, it's 25%. This is because of how interest works. \n\nEuropeans would lend a fixed rate of return. You borrow 20k and you give me back 22k. Or something like that. Not at interest. That way, everything was plain and the church was much more accommodation of those sort of transactions. That is what I mean by fixed return. \n\nI hope things are clearer, I may have repeated myself here and there. \nkenazo: I'm not following your math on the loan, but I'm assuming you're saying that an implicit rate of return was acceptable (I'll give you $20,000 now and you give me $22,000 in two years) while charging 5% per year on $20,000 as an explicit rate of return was considered usury and was not permitted. \nRainman105: Well not really. \nSo lets do some simple math. \nFirst example is fixed return. I give you $1000 and you will give me, in 1 year time, $1100. That's 10% more. And that's how we communicate, I'm not lending you $1000 at 10% interest, I'm lending you $1000 and you give me 10% more back in 1 years time. If you pay me $91.6  a month or pay me all $1100 at the end of the year, that's fine. \n\nNow for interest. \nIf I lend you $1000 at 10% interest, how does this work? The 1000$ is what is called \"the principle\". The 10% more than that is called the actual interest. So your first month, if you pay 91.6$, you won't even pay the 100$ that is 10% of 1000$, which is the interest. You will have to pay more than 100$ to even put a dent into the principle. It is the principle on which every month your interest is calculated upon. \n\nIn other words, you'll have to pay more than 100$ to put a dent into your debt. So if you pay me 150$, you'll pay the 100$ from the interest and then 50$ from the principle. So at the end of your first month you'll have $950 left to pay. However, for the next month, your interest will be 10% of 950, so 95$. So if you pay me 150$ you will have 895$ left to pay from your principle because the first 95$ of the 150$ goes to paying off the interest. And so on and so forth. \n\nTo put that in contrast to the above rate. If you have to pay back a fixed sum of money of 1100$, at the end of the first month, when paying 150$, you're left with 950$ to pay back. Pay another 150$ in the 2nd month, you're left with 800$ to pay back. See the difference? it gets worse as you go on. The discrepancy is going to get bigger and bigger. \n\nInterest is what usury is and what the Church was against.  \n\nAre things clearer now?\nkenazo: I think I follow what you mean, but that's not how loans are calculated at all.  I fully understand the concept of interest (I'm a CPA), just trying to understand the historical difference between acceptable rates of return vs. usury and how it was viewed by the church.\n\nInterest is generally stated as an annual rate, not a monthly rate.  You seem to be assuming that interest is compounded monthly at 10%, which obviously would be something else entirely vs borrowing $1,000 at 10% interest.\n\nSo, as I'm understanding it really is the difference between having an implicit rate of return vs. an explicit one (and perhaps an excessively explicit one!)\nRainman105: I was using months for convenience.\n\nLet me use the word turns instead. \nIf I loaned you 100$ and you have to pay me back  a fixed sum of 110, if you have to pay it in 2 turns, you can pay 55 + 55 and you're done. \n\nIf I loaned you 100$ and you have to pay me back at a 10% interest, if you pay me back 55 in the first turn, you'll have 55 left. But by the time you have to pay the 2nd turn, its' 55 + 10% of 55, so 60.5$. That's the difference between fixed and interest. And it's interest -> usury, that is condemnable by the Church. \n","num_messages":8,"avg_score":26.375,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0493,"11":0.0436,"12":0.0404,"13":0.0353,"14":0.0318,"15":0.0294,"2":0.3445,"3":0.2304,"4":0.1724,"5":0.1263,"6":0.0953,"7":0.0766,"8":0.0651,"9":0.0567},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0066,"3":0.1215,"4":0.0633,"5":0.0378,"6":0.023,"7":0.0165,"8":0.0132,"9":0.0099},"special_characters_ratio":0.2577648766,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.5819672131,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":365.0}

I don't understand how people confuse that with being a good leader. Frankly I think he was lucky that WWII went as well as it did for him. \n\nThere are a lot of terrible leadership choices made in WWII can be traced back to him. Some notable ones are:\n\n- Land war with Russia. While fighting everyone else at the same time mind you.\n\n- Ethics aside I can't help but think the Holocaust was a poor use of resources. You can argue it was a *good* move to unify the people of Germany by singling out the Jews but what happened after that doesn't seem like a good idea from any angle.\n\n- He didn't listen to Rommel and made D-day and the subsequent invasion less of a bloodbath for the allies than it could have been. \n\n- He was quite the dreamer and put a lot of faith in untested weapons, especially at the end of the war. \nQuickSpore: Hitler was very intelligent and very charismatic. But he was largely self taught. That led to some odd gaps in his education and understanding. And I think he was clearly suffering from some sort of mental illness toward the last year of the war at least. But I think as world leaders go, he had a very good understanding of people and situations. He knew he could push the West a lot further than most Germans thought possible. \n\nAnd he could see clearly that the next century at least was going to be dominated by a very few countries with continental sized resource pools to draw upon. If Germany was going to be one of them, the window was closing, and the only possible location to set up the \"greater Germany\" was to the East. The Soviets were weak, but they were getting stronger by the year. In the 20s the Poles fought them to a standstill. A decade plus later the Finns did it. It was reasonable to believe that Germany could do it too. In retrospect attacking the Soviets seems insane. But at the time it was a reasonable gamble... a **big** gamble but a reasonable one. And I've read more than one Eastern front expert that thinks that the issue was in doubt through 42 at least. But it isn't like Germany had any great options at that point. Having started the war, they were committed to see it through. Britain was temporarily out of reach. And Africa and the Middle East were a disaster waiting to happen (the British could likely out-supply him anywhere he had to rely on the Italian merchant fleet). So either he could sit back and take a passive war of attrition with U-boats and the air war and try and build up the logistics for a cross channel attack or to support Axis forces further afield (and he wasn't the type to sit back and let his enemies prepare). Or he could try and hit Stalin right when Stalin looked weak (after the Winter War) and while he British were helpless to do anything about it. At the time it was a reasonable choice. \n\nEven declaring war on the US isn't as crazy as it may seem. The US was unlikely to be in any position to put troops in the field for a year or so. And they would likely declare war at their leisure anyway. They were already sinking German subs, and supplying equipment. So the declaration cost him nothing... and it just might have gotten the Japanese to declare against the Soviets. It didn't work. But it risked very little that wasn't already at risk, and had a nice potential gain.\n\nAs far as the persecution of the Jews and the other \"undesirables\" goes it was vile. But it was effective. It created a common enemy and unified his country. And while they were still in work and concentration camps they provided useful slave labor. And it kept the system going at certain points when it might have otherwise collapsed. Hitler ran deficits without the economy, reserves, banking system, or anything like them to support it. Being able to functionally \"tax\" Jews, communists, political enemies, and the like at a 100% rate by confiscating all their property and then turn them into free slave labor. Hitler never would have made it to WWII without the antisemitisim. The Third Reich ran on looted property. Without that he couldn't have grabbed the early \"peaceful\" conquests (like Austria and the Sudetenland). Without those he couldn't have funded the later military ones.\n\nI'm not going to defend the man morally. He was evil. But I think it is a mistake to think of him as incompetent or stupid. He certainly made mistakes. But he was very clever. And the world suffered from his sharpness.\nStone_Conqueror: I think it's more accurate to say Hitler was clever *in some ways*. He was largely effective at rallying Germany to war (although how much of that was due to sheer chance is another matter), and in his own extremist way was 'reasonable', in the sense that he rationalized \"If A, then B\".\n\nHowever, the idea (I'm inferring from your post, apologies if you're not implying this) that \"Hitler saved the German economy\" is erroneous. Germany devoted all of its resources to a war economy, at the expense of its civilians and non-war related expenses (including draining all financial and currency reserves). If anything, Schacht was responsible for keeping the economy afloat despite Hitler's fanatical demands. \n\nNor did he operate alone. This idea that he was a lone genius who singlehandedly took half of Europe ignores the help and cooperation of many, many other actors, from the fascist inspiration of Mussolini (\"hey, this shit actually works\") to other leaders within the Weimar and later the Nazi leadership (Schleicher, von Papen, Goering, Drexler, Putzi, Ludendorff), not to mention the apathy of Allied diplomats. Hitler was more of a phenomenon, in that he came in at the right time and did things in the right way at the right moments. He was a product of the growing antisemitism, postwar disillusionment, extreme nationalism, popularity of eugenics, and social Darwinism of the period -- not to mention his own experiences with paternal abuse and wartime espionage. \n\nHis mental issues are still a matter of debate, with speculation that he had everything from syphilis to schizophrenia, and took a rainbow of pills ranging from heroin to anti-psychotics. These questions often come up because people have difficulty believing someone who was perfectly sane could do such horrible things. Calling Hitler \"insane\" is therefore somewhat academically inaccurate, and I've corrected my own post to reflect it. The fact that he was sociopathic and an extremist is more accepted, though. Even in his early career, with *Mein Kampf*, his ideas about Germany, race, and the world were pretty clear, and thus cannot be confined to his last few months.\n\nHe also was much worse a military commander than he was a statesman. His attempts to micromanage his generals\/sub-leaders and his increasingly erratic orders actually crippled Germany's military, and actions like invading Russia (even though the Nazis miscalculated Russia's strength at the time, they initially agreed to fight at the border, as they knew invasion would be a terrible move. It was Hitler who insisted on pushing forward, draining money, troops, and supplies along the way). Many of his orders that were coherent were extraordinarily irrational and based on emotion, such as the intended burning of Paris or the successful razing of Warsaw and Stalingrad. He wasn't a \"great leader\" in the sense that Napoleon, who brought stability, banking, and education to France through ordinary brilliant conquest, was. He was a fanatic whose views happened to exist in the zeitgeist, and manipulated and gladhanded his way into power, but wasn't stable enough to keep it very long or create a lasting system that actually helped Germany.\n\nHundreds of books have been written about Hitler though, and there continue to be many opinions about this phenomenon of a man. What I have written isn't necessarily The Definitive Truth^TM , but it is a condensed version of many majority opinions by mainstream academic historians. You are right in the sense that it is a mistake to think of him as completely incompetent, as this is exactly what Weimar and Allied politicians did, much to their detriment. But by no stretch of the imagination can he be described as a military genius, and a political genius likely only in the sense that all psychopaths are.\nWARFTW: >He also was much worse a military commander than he was a statesman.

It was Hitler who insisted on pushing forward, draining money, troops, and supplies along the way). \n\nThat makes absolutely no sense and is contrary to what actually happened.  If it wasn't for Hitler's meddling, the Rhineland would never have been remilitarized, Austria would not have joined Germany, Czechoslovakia would not have disappeared, and Poland and France would never have been invaded.  His field marshals and generals consistently thought his ideas for enhancing German territory would backfire and the Wehrmacht was not ready for another showdown with the forces of Great Britain and France, among other European states.  It was really only against the Soviet Union that there was little to no opposition voiced by German generals. \n\nStone_Conqueror: I don't know what books you've been reading, but it's pretty widely accepted that Hitler wasn't this great military genius. He certainly thought he was, and he was successful for a while, but he made some terrible, fateful errors, and by the end of this days, was giving increasingly erratic orders to his officers. Whether or not invading those countries was a good idea or not has been the subject of tomes and tomes of debate. But it certainly wasn't a good idea to alienate the Japanese, antagonize the USSR (for the sole reason that doing so was the ultimate goal of Lebensraum), arrogantly assume a 'quick war' was inevitable, not building enough railways because of that assumption, the Greek campaign which fatefully delayed the invasion of Russia, burning Warsaw and Stalingrad to the ground and planning to do the same to Paris *just because they pissed him off*, declaring war against the US, the invasion of Russia and pushing through to Stalingrad just because of its namesake, the invasion of Norway...there are plenty of examples that definitively prove Hitler's arrogance, megalomania, and refusal to listen to his own generals cost him dearly. The ambition to conquer half the world is not enough to build and hold an empire.\n\nThis isn't a terribly controversial idea, so I'll stick to some easily-accessible sources.\n\nhttp:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/AskHistorians\/comments\/ub368\/was_hitler_a_political_and_military_genius_or\/\n\nhttp:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Adolf_Hitler#Path_to_defeat\n\nhttp:\/\/www.encyclopedia.com\/topic\/Adolf_Hitler.aspx\n\nThe Greatest Battle by Andrew Nagorski\n\nhttp:\/\/www.history.co.uk\/biographies\/adolf-hitler\n\n Engines of War, Christian Wolmar\n\nWARFTW: >I don't know what books you've been reading, but it's pretty widely accepted that Hitler wasn't this great military genius. \n\nI've read them all.

If it wasn't for Hitler actually choosing to antagonize the allies and continually pushing them to see if they would break, Germany would never have gotten to the point she did in June of 1941.  *If he had listened to his generals*, as you proclaim he should have, the Rhineland would have never been remilitarized, Austria never incorporated into Germany, Czechoslovakia split and invaded, or Poland and France invaded and defeated.  His 'micromanaging', which only really began to affect German victories in the latter parts of the war would have been a moot point since Germany would never have been in the position she found herself in.\n\n>But it certainly wasn't a good idea to alienate the Japanese, antagonize the USSR (for the sole reason that doing so was the ultimate goal of Lebensraum), arrogantly assume a 'quick war' was inevitable, not building enough railways because of that assumption, the Greek campaign which fatefully delayed the invasion of Russia, burning Warsaw and Stalingrad to the ground and planning to do the same to Paris just because they pissed him off, declaring war against the US, the invasion of Russia and pushing through to Stalingrad just because of its namesake, the invasion of Norway...there are plenty of examples that definitively prove Hitler's arrogance, megalomania, and refusal to listen to his own generals cost him dearly.

Your problem is that you've parroted a line developed by apologists in the post-war period to excuse and exonerate German generals for their defeats in the war.  The issue is that they would never have gotten any of their *victories* if it wasn't for Hitler's meddling.  Germany's command staff wanted to do *nothing* that could bring about a war they thought they were not ready for, starting with the Rhineland and ending with France.  It was only with the invasion of the Soviet Union that practically no one disagreed with Hitler and where all of their major defeats stemmed from.\n\n>And really? You've \"read them all\"?

I've read more books than I can recall, including helping with research and translations for authors and academics writing on the war.\n\n>And the move to actually invade Russia was largely seen as a mistake by all except Hitler, who essentially just wanted to stick it to Stalin by conquering his namesake city.\n\nYou're now moving on from simple ignorance to confusing multiple ideas and actions.  What is your source for the invasion of the Soviet Union being 'largely seen as a mistake by all except Hitler'?  As for conquering Stalingrad, that was hardly the foundation of Operation Barbarossa.  You're mixing up Operation Barbarossa with Operation Blau.\nStone_Conqueror: As I said, this period is one that has inspired debate for generations of academics. As a fellow human in grad school for history (my focus is early 20th century Poland), you should be extra aware that there's no such thing as a historical \"truth\", just facts and interpretations. Seriously, there's no reason to be such a dick. I didn't provide serious academic sources because this sub is generally catered towards laymen with an interest in history, not people who have access to J-STOR or who would be willing to fact-check multiple 800-page books. It's also Reddit, not a oral defense.  It seems we've both mistaken each other for your average armchair historian. Can we just agree to disagree, and leave it at that? Clearly we have vastly different views on this topic. \nWARFTW: We're not discussing any type of historical 'truth' here.  You've made numerous mistakes in how you've presented Hitler and his actions in the war, including the overall chronology of the Eastern Front, which doesn't rely on 'historical truth' but rather on facts, dates, and details.  My views on this topic have been forged through over a decade of reading and research, including archival information, and books and articles on the topic that range into the hundreds, if not thousands.  I'm not arguing for my infallibility, but if you want to prove me wrong or inaccurate, you'll have to do better than a few links to questionable sources.  In this case, there's nothing to agree to disagree about.  From what you've written you lack an in-depth understanding of the Second World War or the Eastern Front.  If you want something explained, ask, if you want to disagree, support your position with evidence. \nStone_Conqueror: To be perfectly honest, I've got a thesis to write, so I'd rather work on that than try to prove someone wrong on the Internet about Hitler, especially someone who hasn't been all that respectful a debater.

It's not meant to be up to the same standard as a publishable paper, or even a decent AskHistorians post. These are my general views as someone who frankly cares more about the cultural impact of Stalinism and post-Soviet cultural memory than how great a leader Hitler actually was.

The type of military commander that Hitler proved to be is a minor point to the one I've been making.  German generals, during the war and in the postwar period, found a scapegoat in Hitler for their own mistakes and blunders.  And a reviled dead man can't say much in his own defense.

To this Hitler replied that if the occupation of the Ukraine, Leningrad and Moscow did not bring about peace then the campaign would just have to carry on, using mobile forces, to Yekaterinburg, a staggering 2,000 kilometres further east from Moscow.  Bock recorded Hitler's response without comment but, as an experienced field commander, alarm bells should have sounded at the mere suggestion of such an audacious assertion.  Yet early in the war Hitler still possessed the ability to allay many fears in the minds of his generals with long, at times grandiose lectures, exuding unbounded confidence and showing off his meticulous acquaintance with military and political developments.  Here Hitler's use of sweeping euphemisms, especially in military matters, often allowed little room for attention to detail; he was content with vague references to 'annihilation', 'collapse' and 'reduction to ruble'.  Bock would not be the first, or last, general to falter before Hitler.  Thus, the planning for Barbarossa proceeded without delay or revision and Hitler's unrestrained megalomania was left unchallenged by the principal army commanders.\" \"Operation Barbarossa and Germany's Defeat in the East\" by David Stahel, pgs. 76-77.\n\nGet yourself a copy and educate yourself. \n\n","num_messages":14,"avg_score":1.9285714286,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.03,"11":0.0267,"12":0.0253,"13":0.0247,"14":0.0236,"15":0.0228,"2":0.353,"3":0.2234,"4":0.1576,"5":0.1084,"6":0.0773,"7":0.0569,"8":0.0442,"9":0.0352},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.245,"3":0.3489,"4":0.3141,"5":0.2948,"6":0.2831,"7":0.2718,"8":0.2622,"9":0.2536},"special_characters_ratio":0.2093756234,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.5098747592,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":302.0}

BC and had an autonomous province (Arab\u00e2ya) within the Achaemenid empire, and fought alongside the Babylonians against Cyrus.\n\nThe Persian golden age was in the 11th century, around the time of the Shahnameh, which is when Persian identity and language peaked. You don't know what you're talking about.\nJohnDaBarr: So you claim that Persians didn't do anything before the Arab conquest?\nJuliaDomnaBaal: No I did not say that. You said \"before Arabs were a thing\", but Cyrus gained power literally after conquering \"Land of the Assyrians and the Arabs\" in the 6th c. BC, and Arabs were a part of the first Persian empire and were indispensable to Cambyses II''s conquest of Egypt.\n\nWhat I did say is that the golden age of Persians was much later than you assume. The \"Persian\" identity shared by Iranians formed in the second millennium AD, and its seeds were in fighting Islamic influence, not before it. There were accomplishments before Islamic conquest but it's massively overblown. Can you name me 5 Persian scientists\/scholars before Islam?\nJohnDaBarr: I am aware that Arabs didn't just came out of the thin air when they started conquering stuff left and right and by \"before Arabs were a thing\" means before they became a conqueror in the region. \n\nStill the same \"identity\" argument can be used here because Arabs in the 10 c. BC are not the same Arabs that went on a conquest spree in the 7 c. AD. So you would give the Arabs their cultural continuity over the span of 1500 years but not give the Persians their cultural continuity of 1000 years... because from what you write here you clearly do not consider the Achaemenids and the Sasanians to be of Persian cultural origin.\nJuliaDomnaBaal: Arabs were certainly \"a thing\", when they allied with the Aramaeans against Assyrians, or Babylonians against Assyrians, or Babylonians against Achaemenids. They provided tens of thousands of soldiers and died defending their lands, and the last Babylonian king spent 10 years in the court of the Arab king, who was his biggest ally against the Achaemenids. And in the Achaemenid period they had a unique-status province and they fought against Alexander in Gaza. I'd say that's definitely a thing.\n\nAchaemenids and Sassanians were Persian, and there is continuity (Arabs also had continuity), even if the notion of a political \"Persian empire\" was only a Sassanian notion. But regardless, the Persian golden age with no other equal is undoubtedly the one in the 2nd m. AD, which combines nostalgia for the pre Islamic empires with a strong national identity which was being defined in that time and took the form of literary works using the language of this identity. Continuing, the Shahname influenced Shah Ismail of the Safavids, whose works define Persian architecture. And so on. You can argue if ancient Persian empires were a golden age, but they weren't \"the\" golden age. Either way this discussion is delving into pedantry.\nJohnDaBarr: So the Achaemenids and the Sasanians are both great empires with intricate societies, customs, languages and culture and they both did a lot of great things! Buuuuuut they where just not good enough because we today use our immaculate worldview to grade their accomplishments and they just don't score well on the civilization leaderboard.\nJuliaDomnaBaal: They were ruling dynasties. The modern notion of Persian identity and Persian culture came from the works of Ferdowsi and those influenced by him. And whatever accomplishments were in the past, they pale in comparison to the ones post Islam. Again, can you name me 5 pre Islamic Persian (or even Iranian) scholars? It took for them to get invaded by Arabs to accomplish things truly of note.\nJohnDaBarr: Lack of something is not much proof of anything.\n\nAnd if I can not name 5 post Islamic Persian does that mean that particular society was not really that great in the first place?\n","num_messages":9,"avg_score":0.2222222222,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0589,"11":0.0532,"12":0.0467,"13":0.042,"14":0.0388,"15":0.0366,"2":0.3266,"3":0.2096,"4":0.172,"5":0.1373,"6":0.1107,"7":0.0939,"8":0.0782,"9":0.0686},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0754,"4":0.0317,"5":0.0121,"6":0.0,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2013389536,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.5187969925,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":388.3}

I know of three videos by this man, and I also know of three videos where he is wrong. In one such video, he claims that the Age of Enlightenment WASN'T caused by great people with great ideas or by any events in history that led up to it like the Renaissance and that it instead owed its creation to coffee. I don't need to ask historians or history enthusiasts if this is right because I know that it is not. The consumption of coffee could have played a minor part, but it wasn't the cause and that's just a fact. This is extremely frustrating, though, because my little brother is a kid who doesn't know much and now he thinks that the Enlightenment was caused by coffee. Part of what makes his videos so frustrating, though, is that it's not ALL misinformation, but is often just hand-picked information which is exaggerated in order to skew things in his direction.\n\nThere are two \"facts\" from his video that I remember that I wasn't sure about.   \nThe first \"fact\" was that he said that the beverage of choice prior to the Enlightenment was alcohol, which I'm sure is true, but he then said that people would drink only alcohol throughout the day, morning till night. Can anyone tell me if this is the case? I tried to look it up but wasn't really sure if what I was finding was accurate.  \nThe second \"fact\" was actually debunking a counter-argument to his theory. Obviously, coffee containing a stimulant, caffeine, couldn't have been a contributor to the Enlightenment if people had already been drinking tea, but he claims that tea was outrageously expensive and wasn't typically consumed by normal people. This sounds possible, but knowing this YouTuber he was likely only saying it was expensive because expensive tea did exist and he was probably disregarding that cheaper tea also existed. As you may have guessed, my second question is whether or not tea really was universally expensive enough back before the Enlightenment to have prevented people from consuming it commonly or regularly.\nyermawsgotbawz: Ok, how to unpack this.... \n\nThere is a semi flippant\/amusing remark about how coffee led to the the enlightenment... the real answer here, is that it didn\u2019t but that the circumstances and social norms that were all changing at the same time as the arrival of widespread coffee consumption were contributors to the enlightenment. \n\nAlcohol consumption in the Middle Ages was the norm. Often, particularly in more urban areas, the water sources were not potable. Brewing ale or beer was a way of ensuring that any waterborne parasites could be killed off. \n\nPost-reformation, literacy was on the increase and with it the supply of books and pamphlets multiplied.  Books dictating the proper way to conduct oneself and how a gentleman or lady should present themselves in public or private were very popular. These books recognised the potential for social faux pas through consumption of alcohol and so advocated for the control of its consumption and in some cases temperance (abstention from alcohol). \n\nAt the same time as this, we have an increase in overseas mercantile operations, these imports led to tea and coffee houses setting up in urban areas. These were bright and modern spaces, with access to the daily newspapers and fairly affluent places given that their clientele had money to spare to buy something non-essential.  Unlike inns or pubs, these were less rowdy places, where merchants came to network and entrepreneurs came to think and discuss their ideas with like-minded people. \n\nSo this new trend of coffee houses, was encouraged by popular writing of the day and became an aspirational activity. \n\nThese sober spaces and sober living were touted as the proper and correct way to live your life via Christian ideology, and as such societies began to come together in the upper classes to resolve the problem that was intemperance and the bad behaviour of the poor. If only these people in poverty would subscribe to the ideals of their social betters- they would no longer be a threat to the fabric of society. \nThat said, many of the upper classes still caroused and partied at music halls inebriated, but they felt they could dictate to the poor how they should live as they did not rely upon charity. \nAs such, it became more common for the poor to obtain a little tea where and when they could. It tended to be brewed themselves rather than in a salubrious coffee house but in this way, they could feel like they were part of modern society and not be left behind. The expense of this commodity also meant that you could barter or sell your tea if need be. \n\n\nSo, to answer your questions:\nYes alcohol drinking was common over water.\nYes coffee is often associated with the enlightenment but it is not a factor of the causes of the enlightenment itself.\nMr_136: >Alcohol consumption in the Middle Ages was the norm. Often, particularly in more urban areas, the water sources were not potable. Brewing ale or beer was a way of ensuring that any waterborne parasites could be killed off.\n\nThat's just false.

It is, however, an argument I am familiar with.  \nThe author of the post that you have contended with has concurred that in urban spaces, there were indeed issues with contaminated water. There is referenced material from the enlightenment period that confirms the tannery\/butchery\/brewery runoffs into tributaries in urban spaces. \nThe sheer number of inns, alewives and brewers in these dynamic spaces speaks to a great deal of demand beyond recreational drinking. Given that urban spaces were in their infancy at this point, the number of people engaged in this line of work locally would not be sustainable for the population if this were the case. \n\nRe: the OP of this particular question who is asking specifically about coffee houses -being a phenomenon found only in urban spaces- it is fair to propose that an answer to improve general understanding would be based solely on the dynamics of the area in question. \n\nThe clear and potable water of non urban spaces was not relevant to the OP\u2019s question and therefore was not something I had explored in my response.\n","num_messages":6,"avg_score":5.1666666667,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0444,"11":0.0398,"12":0.0359,"13":0.0329,"14":0.0303,"15":0.0287,"2":0.3388,"3":0.2155,"4":0.1512,"5":0.1095,"6":0.0812,"7":0.0653,"8":0.0547,"9":0.0478},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0485,"3":0.0929,"4":0.0672,"5":0.0603,"6":0.0552,"7":0.0535,"8":0.0519,"9":0.0502},"special_characters_ratio":0.199053492,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.5309278351,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":309.2}

As a Marine Officer, we definitely adopted their version of centralized command\/decentralized control that allowed them to be so successful in the field.  There is no denying that they were an extremely professional and effective organization (regular army only, we didn't study the SS)\n\nEdit: if anyone with more experience, schooling, or combat deployments wants to add to the discussion please do. Apparently a Marine Officer's input by itself is with the downvotes but not worth commenting on. \nwiking85: Not really, the Marines developed it on their own.  Post-WW2 they certainly picked up lessons from the German way of war, but the US Marines have had plenty of their own experience to form doctrine on and owe their system to no foreign power.  Boyd and the OODA loop are more influential than Auftragstaktik.\n_get_off_my_lawn: Sort of. Boyd's OODA loop wasn't published until after Vietnam with a short paper. The Marine Corps adopted in into AWS in 1980.  Fire team and squad tactics changed significantly since WWII and had been adopted in Vietnam. The Marine Corps doctrine or the world had yet to see Col Boyd's published papers on theory. He was still an instructor pilot at the time. \nwiking85: I am aware of that, but the USMC was really only exposed to German doctrine post-WW2; they developed their doctrine in combat pre- and post-WW1 based on their own combat experience, not German doctrine.  After WW2 they didn't really draw that much from the Germans other than some terminology and the lessons of Europe, as they were soon in combat again in Korean and later Vietnam, so got modern experience to draw on.  It was more the US Army that was using German experience to prepare to fight the Soviets, while the USMC was focused on 'firefighting' during the Cold War around the world and their role as a rapid reaction light infantry force to storm beaches, rather than fight a continental war against the Soviets in Europe, where German experience really made sense to pay attention to.\n_get_off_my_lawn: You don't think the Marine Corps adopted the same vein of commanders intent and centralized command\/decentralized control as Auftragstaktik?  The Germans did it in WW2 better than the US did. This is pretty core MCDP-1 doctrine based on Prussian\/Clausewitzian doctrine.\nwiking85: No the USMC didn't adopt the Germans system.  They developed their own doctrine via their own experiences that was separate from the US Army.  The US Army took a LOT of doctrinal lessons from the German army after WW2, but the USMC didn't need to, they had a lot more combat experience of their own to draw on, which is why they innovated the fire team concept on their own as well as their own leadership doctrine.  The USMC developed their own innovative systems during WW2 without having any experience of the German model and had their system in place long before ever being able to interview or fully study the German system.  Sure they might have drawn lessons pre- and post-WW1, but they had plenty of small unit, decentralized combat experiences in the Philippines and in Central America\/the Caribbean in the 1900-1920s period to develop a concept of warfare around.  Certainly the fighting in Europe helped instill a European style of combat experience on them, but that was an outlier and they had been working with decentralized small unit command long before and after that, not requiring German models to do it on their own.\n_get_off_my_lawn: Maneuver warfare has grown a lot since WW2 and the USMC has definitely adopted a lot of tactics from other sources. Germans were doing it earlier and better as a doctrine than we were. http:\/\/www.globalsecurity.org\/military\/library\/report\/1990\/HPE.htm\nwiking85: Can you demonstrate that USMC doctrine is based on the German model?  One report from 1990 doesn't prove that.\n_get_off_my_lawn: I'd have to dig out my notes from Amphibious Warfare School and TBS in Quantico.

I can imagine a bunch of excavators pissing themselves as they come across these.\n\nRegarding the teaching, it's always been the case that a \"clinical\", sanitized version of history is preferable to teach rather than the real, filthy, funny, tragic, human reality.\nRichardWang: Heh,  I can imagine the archeologist yelling \"I know that Icarus is buggering you\" at each other over beers each night.\n\nBackOfTheHearse has a point that if history was taught with a more raw\/violent\/profane\/realistic aspect, it would be much more appealing to students like myself.  I've learned 50x more from [Dan Carlin's Hardcore History podcast](http:\/\/www.dancarlin.com\/disp.php\/hh) than I picked up in grade school and college history courses.  However, in America at least, everything must be sanitized to protect people's precious snowlflakes from traumatic reality.  It is a shame, really.  It makes me want to home school my children, but I'm afraid that will turn them into socially inept mutants.\n\n[deleted]: > I'm afraid that will turn them into socially inept mutants.\n\nIt probably would, but then again, given the number of socially inept mutants I attended school with, maybe it's not that huge a factor.\n\nI was actually amazingly fortunate to have history teachers who made it come alive.  I mean, really so.  They often-enough cut through the sanitized bullshit.  \n\n[This woman](http:\/\/www.umass.edu\/history\/people\/faculty\/barton.html) who taught the history of the Roman Republic at university was a tiny wisp of a thing, a visiting prof from Harvard, with a high, thin voice and the most amazingly dramatic, clearly enunciated, pathos-laden presentation I've ever seen from a lecturer.  I distinctly recall her acting out the Roman ideal of a defeated gladiator baring his neck for the killing blow, to a packed room of students paying utterly rapt attention.\n\nAlso, props for Dan Carlin, I don't know anyone in here who doesn't like that podcast (although I can do without his dramatic....pauses)\n\nAlso, the guys who wrote those tags seemed to have an abnormal obsession with turds.\nRichardWang: Heh,  I think every teenage boy has an abnormal obsession with turds.  Also, before modern bathrooms, finding a good place to poop in a city must've been a big issue.\n\nYou got lucky, my friend.  My history teachers were mostly uninspiring failed authors who had given up on life. \n\nAre you still around MA?  I am in (non history) grad school in Cambridge right now.\n[deleted]: I actually went to Berkeley, hence visiting prof, so no.  \n\n\nRichardWang: Sorry, link about prof was to UMass and you mentioned she was Harvard faculty so I assumed.  \n[deleted]: Ah no worries, that's just the first link to her I could find.\n\nWe had a lot of great visiting profs, including a guy whose name I wish I could find (\u02dc20 years ago, dammit), an Israeli prof who did the absolute bestest-ever  course on the history of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.  Shame that he was inevitably shouted down by the insane cockmongers from the \"Israel Action Committee\" on the one side and the \"Muslim Student Union\" on the other, every single lecture.  \n\nI'd also love to remember the name of the guy who specialized in British colonial history - that was a fantastic, polished, but un-gussied-up course...\n\nThe cool thing is that I got to attend an academic magnet school and a good public university, giving me a vastly better take on American public education (I'm European but lived in the US for >10 years) than seems to be par for the course.  For example, one of my history teachers in HS was a guy who'd somehow struck it big money-wise and didn't give a shit about anything but doing a great job teaching the subject; he was typical for the amazing, dedicated faculty we had.\n\nOh well..\nRichardWang: Hah, we have had a very similar experience.  I sat in on Noam Chomsky lecturing about the Isreal\/Palestine conflict my first year of grad school.  He is incredibly reasonable and intelligent...but incredibly old, and he was overwhelmed by the pissed off zionist.  It was a very charged atmosphere.\n\nYeah,  I wish I had experienced the same quality of history teacher that you did when I was younger.  It might've changed my whole path.\n[deleted]: TBH, and I am horribly biased here, I think Noam Chomsky is pompous and smug - he has some good points, but they're often so cloaked in his own absolutist self-righteous \"I-have-the-truth-and-nobody-else-does\"-ness that I couldn't imagine a lecture on such a tricky subject going any other way.  \n\nIn fact, I really think that it's the very blandness of a lot of people's history, poli sci, economics, and other liberal arts education that pushes them eventually to be more receptive to thinkers like Chomsky, Eric Hobsbawm, and others who're not very, ahem, balanced much of the time\n\n(Apologies lest this turn into a pro\/con debate about Noam Chomsky, like I said, these are my own personal opinions).\nRichardWang: For once,  this stranger on the internet is not going to argue with you because you expressed a different opinion.  I really just went to see Noam because he one of the most famous intellectuals at my University.  I know that he is widely disliked, and I don't really have a strong opinion about it.\n\nI am actually a biologist so he is pretty far from my field for me to provide any insights into most of his work.  I will say that some of the linguistics stuff he worked on back in the day is pretty brilliant. Especially the [context free grammar](http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Stochastic_context-free_grammar).  A lingustics theory that was so insightful\/fundamental that it ended up being applied to solve problems like RNA folding.\n[deleted]: And that is a very good reason to go see the guy - disparate viewpoints are awesome, and that is actually one of my main replies to the \"you don't need a university education\" crowd.  University is there to give you exposure to these kinds of people and viewpoints, use it.

It also seems like they lack the very concept of a \"nigger\" in their culture, even in movies.

I am endlessly fascinated by this particular period of history, so I've studied it a lot. Huge ramble incoming.\n\n\n\n\nI feel like it's been kind of a cool kid thing in academia to be hard on Justinian. Part of this I'm sure is due to the Secret Histories, which I see a lot of scholars taking maybe without quite enough salt; the other part...I'm not sure? Edginess or something? The argument I usually see is from people comparing him to Heraclius (maybe more rightfully) or Basil (probably less rightfully), but he was neither of those men. All three were great emperors because of their own individual strengths. It's funny how he's viewed so favorably now, though, when he wasn't too liked in his own time. Hindsight is great.\n\n\n\nPersonally, I'm quite sympathetic to Justinian and I *do* think he was a good emperor. That's not to say he was without his fatal flaws. I agree he should have focused on securing and defending the eastern border rather than messing around with Rome, and there's some speculation that had they focused on it, Byzantium could have taken Persian territory, if not Ctesiphon itself. Sassanid Persia pre-Khosrow had a fantastic military but was weakened by a lot of internal problems, and the succession crisis that followed after Kvad's death would have been an opportune time to strike. Africa was probably worth taking and keeping, and I think it would have been defensible, especially since the empire had allies\/vassals in the area in the form of Axum. Italy, however, was just a money sink -- as in even when it was under imperial control, it wasn't turning a profit. The Goths feared the Byzantines enough to mostly play ball with the east and Justinian should have just left it. By overextending his military and the resources that the empire was able to provide, however, Justinian definitely screwed up.\n\n\n\nHe also was extremely paranoid, and this began to undermine the logic of his decisions as he got older, especially where Belisarius was concerned. Some people think this came about as a side-effect of surviving the bubonic plague, but I think he just was always that way. He was always an anxious and sleepless individual. When he was younger this helped to fuel his workaholic nature and enabled him to get a great deal done, but I think the Nika revolts and his near-overthrow stuck with him his entire life and he and Theodora never quite could trust people ever again. The thing is, though, both of them struggled their entire reigns to maintain their own legitimacy. Justinian rose to power basically on a technicality. The previous emperor Anastasius's heirs were still alive ~~for a while anyway~~ and Justinian never had any sons or daughters of his own. He was a peasant and his wife was a literal whore. So if you're in his position, you have to go dictatorial to get people to take you seriously. If you don't, the senate starts paying the wrong people or the army decides to name a popular general the new emperor and you get more Nika revolts. Once the army stops protecting you, you're done (which may be why he liked to keep them occupied as well).\n\n\n\n\nBut for all this, I honestly believe that Justinian was a benevolent ruler and I do think he had nothing but the long-term prosperity of his empire in mind. His domestic policy is incredible, and this is why I admire him as a ruler. Again, this is a guy who was born a peasant. He was a pig farmer's kid who came to Constantinople when his uncle Justin invited him. Because Justin was doing well working his way up the ranks in the military, he was able to get Justinian an excellent education and help elevate him as well (the two basically served in the emperor's personal bodyguard). This meant even as a kid, Justinian was hanging around the palace and learning how politics and intrigue worked...he basically got an imperial apprenticeship.\n\n\n\nSo if you're a commoner now given a rich kid's education and access to the inner workings of the royal family and the senate, you're probably going to be able to spot a *lot* of the bullshit right away, and you can see this in all of the policies Justinian implemented soon after he rose to power. What I love the most is that he reined in the aristocracy hard and started forcing them to play by the rules which, imo, if Western Rome had done earlier they might have fared better. (Justinian may have been aware of this too, as history was one of the subjects he studied). Now the rich had to actually pay their taxes, the Demes (political parties\/thugs, basically) had obey the law, and government positions were given out based on merit rather than family name. To the aristocracy, this was a shocking and grave offense, but it's also how Justinian was able to find so many brilliant and talented individuals to help administer his court. It's pretty clear that Justinian valued a sharp mind above all else -- it explains Theodora, Belisarus, Tribonian, John, and all the other controversial people surrounding him. The one thing they all had in common is they were all damn smart.\n\n\n\n\nWith a qualified administration in place, he then set about reforming laws, which became the base of our modern legal system today, and which increased the rights and protections of women; he increased taxes, and a good portion of that did fund his wars, but he also used the income to build new infrastructure, including countless new aqueducts, cisterns, hospitals, orphanages, roads, sea walls, forts, etc; and he of course commissioned (and possibly helped work on) the Hagia Sophia, which for its time was a mathematical and engineering breakthrough. There's also the infamous tale of how he got two monks to smuggle silkworms from China, allowing Byzantium to set up its own silk industry. As fun as this industrial espionage is, it was a tremendous boon to the empire and a big economic blow to the Persians: it increased Byzantium's self-sufficiency and gave it an enormous source of income that would be critical for its future survival. \n\n\n\nNow, at face value, all of this probably doesn't seem terribly impressive when laid alongside someone who accomplished military victories -- but without this reform, without these laws, and especially without this new income and infrastructure in place, those future victories probably wouldn't have been possible. Justinian's public works were on a New Deal kind of scale; in fact, the emperors who preceded him were misers, and were so afraid to spend that a lot of the existing infrastructure was either crumbling, or a brutal fire\/earthquake hazard. In the years before Nika, there actually was a certain optimism about Justinian's eventual rise to the throne, because the local guilds had grown tired of Leo's and Anastasius' lack of investments in particular; Justinian had proven himself a spender while his uncle was still on the throne, and thus, a potential source of jobs. Similarly, we see a lot of Constantinople's lasting problems begin to arise centuries later when they start to neglect their infrastructure again. While Byzantine power would wax and wane, what Justinian built helped ensure the strength, prosperity, and defensibly of the empire for centuries to come. I absolutely believe that he was integral to its long-term prosperity, and that it would have fallen much sooner without him.\n\n\n\n\n(**TLDR?**) I think the greatest problem of Justinian's administration was just that it was lightning in a bottle. For one generation, you had this dream-team of exceptional individuals who came together and accomplished the impossible, even against stupid odds like a volcanic winter and the black-freaking-plague. When they all died, there was nobody even remotely competent enough to take their place, and that's why we see a rapid contraction of Justinian's progress under the emperors that followed. Maurice basically saved everything at the last minute.\nThibaudborny: Interesting post overall but nowhere do I see adressed how his administrative reforms destroyed the last vestiges of civic autonomy and ensured that the centrepiece of Roman rule, the Graeco-Roman polis was rendered impotent. This is important because these centres of Roman power and culture proved unable to deal with the strain of natural (and man-made) disasters that soon followed. The urban landscape withered and the focal point of Roman defence\/control shifted to the rural element of the Empire which had been poorly to not Romanised at all (and thus not quite loyal either). \n\nHis imperial dreams west furthermore compromised the defense of his eastern borders, which soon after the Sassanians would happily exploit. \n\nBut yes, he sure did reconquer Africa and Italy...\n\nAnd financially ruined the Empire... so to be honest your take on his 'New Deal' is kikd of overblown as he ultimately did a lot of harm with it as well.\n\nThat's not because \"it's cool to take a piss on J.\", that's because it is a *fact*.\n\nladyderpette: You...just skimmed that, didn't you? :P I actually did acknowledge most of your points.\n\n\n\n\nI agreed with the fact that Italy was bad. And that the east should have been secure no matter what. And that the whole fiasco was a financial disaster and overall bad for the empire. All I said was that Africa theoretically *could* have been profitable and defensible, given the resources they had at the time. You are right, these are facts. Nothing changes them. As sympathetic as I am, I don't deny any of that for a second.\n\n\n\n\nI also acknowledged the shift towards authoritarianism, although yes, I didn't go into specifics and it was mostly aimed at the nobility. Feudalism was on the rise across the continent. It was changing how wars were fought, how taxes were collected, how everything was administered, period. I don't think the old civic systems would have survived no matter who was at the helm; that's an unfortunate consequence of a number of things lost when the west fell, but that's a separate topic. A different ruler might have delayed it, but the days of the old republic were long gone. I'm not saying that's a good thing or advocating for feudal systems. They're no better than corrupt senators. It's painful that the progress made by the republic was lost, and it's easy to see why Procopius was pissed. But. I also don't believe that Justinian went this route simply because he was a douche, or trying to enrich himself, or be an evil tyrant, or even that he was stupid. This was the absolute worst-case scenario, where literally almost half of the population was dead. That creates a dearth of all kinds of labor and all kinds of specialists. \n\n\n\n\nNow, granted, this is kind of where my knowledge on this particular Byzantine subject ends, but my point is -- I'd be very interested to see how much of the effects you describe were a direct result of the reforms, and how many were an unfortunate consequence of the disasters and subsequent labor loss. It seems to me that increased ruralization, for example, would be an obvious side effect of the plague, because you can't get anything done without food and you've gotta replace those farmers somehow. If you do have more knowledge on this subject -- or even better, some favorite reading material on it -- by all means, I'd be happy to learn more and even correct my view if need be. I'm just always wary of claims that any disaster could be attributed entirely to one person, although there's certainly obvious instances where it has happened.\nThibaudborny: The main part of my point was generally not present in your post (administrative reforms, ruralisation) the rest was indeed touched upon but a reply is not necessarily a dispute. \n\nSo no, I did \"not just skim\" that. I fully read your otherwise good post.\n\nI'll try to look up the sources I read on this in the past. Mind you, I'm not saying it is 'just' Justinian, but he is part of a broader trend (that was ongoing since the Dominate), but in effect the administrative decisions he took only added and excacerbated these evolutions.\nladyderpette: All good, friendo, all good. Apologies if I seemed on the defensive; your tone just struck me as a little aggressive, and I hope I did not misread it.\n\n\n\nI seriously look forward to what you find.\nBoscolt: Don't mind him. \n\nPlenty of people on this site actively look for a fight or think they can discredit a entire paragraph with a nitpick.

Comes with the territory. :P\n\n\n\n\nI don't mind being (constructively) critiqued, though. Debate is healthy, and if I missed something I genuinely want to know. My Byzantine obsession is semi-recent and I'm still learning as best I can now that I no longer have access to university resources. My understanding of the civics of this period are broad at best, as is my understanding of the religious schisms, which is why I don't feel confident commenting on either of those yet. I didn't leave them out as part of some weird agenda, though. (Can you even have an agenda for someone who's been dead 1500 years? Vote Sabbatius\/Belisarius in 2020, everyone).\nBoscolt: Hey! Welcome to Club Byzantinophile! It's very small, but you should really check out Reddit's local r\/byzantium.\n\nIf you're just starting out, I'd recommend reading either Norwich's A Short History or his unabridged trilogy, or Lars Brownworth's Lost to the West. Both are great introductory reads.\n\nIf you're interested in any further readings on a general scope or a specific topic, I'd be happy to help. Always great to see a fellow Byzantine obsessionist interested in more than \"Are Byzantines really Roman?\"\n\n> Vote Sabbatius\/Belisarius in 2020, everyone\n\nPreach!\nladyderpette: Hah, thanks! I burned through Norwich and Brownworth pretty quickly (and I'm sad r\/byzantium isn't more active, although I think someone might have carried a Deme riot over from 4chan recently).\n\n\n\n\nI feel like I've got a pretty good grasp of the broad strokes now -- the various emperors, the military, the technological advancements. It's the less grand stuff I'm having a hard time finding out about now...things like civilian life (I know that's always notoriously hard to find), or the entire culture surrounding the Hippodrome, or a better understanding of how the government itself functioned in terms of specific positions (quaestor, prefect, etc). I'm hungry for any and all details, basically, because I'm that kind of person. :P I'd absolutely love suggestions!\nBoscolt: I find Byzantine Studies the most enriching once you're past the generalities of Byzantine political and military history and you delve into specialist topics. I'm not sure where your particular interest might be in so I took the liberty of just throwing out a bunch of different works for specific topics. I hope you don't feel overwhelmed by it which isn't my intention and any of these books are great for discussing their specified topic.\n\nIf you're looking for a primer on the Byzantine economy, including its rural and urban aspects along with case studies on commerce in specific regions, I really recommend ***The Economic History of Byzantium***. It really is a definitive work and goes into all aspects including the resources and capital the Byzantines had to going over trade laws. A further read dealing with numismatics is ***Byzantine Coinage*** by Philip Grierson.\n\nJohn Haldon's  ***A Social History of Byzantium*** deals with the social relations of the empire including law, gender roles, court society, family structure and an attempt to analyze the lives and roles the peasantry and the invisible slave classes played. Averil Cameron's ***The Byzantines*** is also a very good work dealing with the Byzantines as a people.\n\nIf you're looking into East-West relations, I really reccommend ***The Crusades from the Perspective of Byzantium and the Muslim World*** which really follows the vein of *The Crusades through Arab Eyes* but is written by scholars. While Jonathon Phillips' ***The Fourth Crusade and the Sack of Constantinople*** deals with primarily the event itself, Charles Brand's ***Byzantium Confronts the West: 1180-1204*** is critical for understanding the background and the diplomatic breakdowns that led to the catastrophic sack by the crusaders and I really recommend reading it after. ***Byzantium and the Crusader States*** by Ralph Lilie deals with the diplomatic relations between the empire and the aforementioned Levantine Crusader states.\n\nMy personal topic of interest is urban studies of Byzantine Constantinople and a great work that goes into dissecting the civilian  life in the capital is the classic ***Imperial Constantinople*** by Dean Miller in the *New Dimensions of History* series.\n\nThese are just some of many topics in this fascinating and awesome field and if I missed your particular interest, let me know and I'll be happy to go over what texts I know about it. Cheers!\nladyderpette: I think I definitely lean toward the social side of things. I love seeing how people lived and how they react to different events, both as individuals and as groups. It's fascinating to see what led them to take the actions they did (hence why I find the reign of Justinian so interesting), and to examine how things could have been done differently. And, well, I also loves me some good ol' palace intrigue. You can probably guess my favorite fiction author.\n\n\n\n\nThat said, this list is freaking *incredible* and I cannot thank you enough for taking the time to compile it! I may have to carefully budget for all these but I'd honestly love to read them all. I went and turned my hobby into my career, so now Byzantium is my escape, hah.\n\n\n\n\nI don't know if\/when I'll have more questions in the future, but do you mind if I ping you if I do? And seriously, thank you again.\nBoscolt: Yeah, for sure you can, I'd be happy to answer more. =)\n\nMany of the works I talked about are also available online in one way or another.\n\nThe Economic History of Byzantium, for example, is available for free download as a pdf on Dumbarton Oaks' site.\nhttps:\/\/www.doaks.org\/research\/publications\/books\/the-economic-history-of-byzantium\nladyderpette: Even better!

From the image you included the exhibition dates the pot's creation around the early 5th century BCE. The trouble of course arises that since this pot has made it down to us from antiquity relatively intact the ability to accurately date an informal inscription is rather speculative. What I did find interesting was that, in my own opinion, the characters were not obviously classical greek but some form of variation. Just going over the listings of character sets on wikipedia therefore I attempted to get an idea of what matched closest to the style on the pot. The angling of the inscription suggests it is meant to be read from left to right but many of the characters appear reversed according to classical Greek forms. This lead to looking at the [Old Italic scripts](http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Old_Italic_script). Cutting a long story short, in my estimation the writing could likely be a form of [Etruscan](http:\/\/upload.wikimedia.org\/wikipedia\/commons\/7\/73\/Etruscan_alphabet.png) with a heavy influence from the Western Greek alphabet as until the formalization of classical Etruscan the direction of writing was not uniform as such many of the adopted characters ended up being reversed. As to possible translation, unfortunately my expertise is definitely lacking in this area but I will put what I think are likely characters.  \n  \nSo going from left to right:  \n*1 Seems obviously an [Alpha or A](http:\/\/upload.wikimedia.org\/wikipedia\/commons\/4\/45\/Greek_Alpha_03.svg)  \n*2 This was tricky and one of the reasons I suspected Etruscan. Essentially it looks to be a backwards Nu or N but the possibility exists that its an informal version of [San\/Sigma](http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Tsan#Arcadian_.22Tsan.22) or even a version of [H\/Eta](http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Eta)  \n*3 Seems most likely to be [Rho or R](http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Rho) but could also be a poorly scribed Alpha.  \n*4 & 6  Seems to clearly be Psi but the pronunciation is the problem as that symbol represents an [aspirated consonant](http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Aspirated_consonant). The pronunciation of which varied temporally and geographically across history. My intuition that this was early Etruscan would place the pronunciation into the Wester Greek\/red category making it a Kh sound similar to Chi or our modern X as opposed to the classical Ps pronunciation. Keep in mind this is all speculation on my part.  \n*5 Another tricky one as at first glance it appears to be the miniscule version of classical Lambda \u03bb . But noting the hook at the top drawing downwards and to the left it does open the possibility for it to be a poorly scribed version of Epsilon or a uniquely [Lydian\/Etruscan character  for F also shown as an 8.](http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Etruscan_alphabet#Etruscan_alphabet)  \n  \nAgain I'm not an expert was just bored and felt like doing some detective work.

I\u2019ve been playing a lot of imperator Rome this month and made me interested in the hellenization of different regions including Egypt. My friend is a Coptic Christian Egyptian now living in New Jersey. His first name sounds very Greek to me and his last name is demian. I was wondering what is the possibility or likelihood of having Greek ancestors and the overall impact of hellenization had on the ethnic population. I was interested because I am Italian myself. And I know there is a lot of crossover between Italian and Greek.\ntoluknuknuk: Off topic:\n\n 'I am Italian' in Europe => You live in Italy and almost pure Italian lineage for centuries.\n\n'I am Italian' in the US => You live in the US and may somewhere in your lineage have had an Italian ancestor. Most likely 2-3 generations agao, but you're probably actually American as f\\*ck .\n\n​\n\nIt's just weird man :D\njhf2112: I think your point about Europeans having centuries of \"pure lineage\" is way off the mark. If you look at the continent's history of population shift and political upheaval you'll find that the states of Europe are just as artificially constructed as the the Americas.\nColeusRattus: That is because nations are artificial constructs.\n\nAnd the \"lineage\" is irrelevant. You're Italian if you have Italian citizenship.\nTouchyTheFish: Citizenships are even more artificial constructs. Even languages are made up and their words don\u2019t have any inherent meaning. So the question becomes not what does Italian **really** mean, but what meaning is useful for communication?\n\nThe American usage is not wrong. It refers to family ties, which is probably closer to the historical meaning.\nColeusRattus: Of course citizenship is as artificial as a nation. Still, it's the only valid way to be a member of a state.\nTouchyTheFish: Not sure what you mean by valid or what a state has to do with it. I\u2019m talking about communication. If someone comes to Italy in order to vote or stand for election, then it\u2019s about citizenship.\n\nwhen an American tells me they\u2019re Italian, I take it to mean their ancestors lived in Italy, they are likely to speak some Italian, their parents and grandparents almost certainly speak it, and that a genetic test would show Italian ancestry. \n\nThe Italian state has no say in the matter, because it\u2019s over there and we\u2019re over here.\nColeusRattus: Thing is, Italy has not existed until 1861. So not many ancestors would have identified as such. Now I know nationality can be important for the identity of an individual (which baffles me TBH), but that does not make it something tangible. Sure, your ancestors might come from there, but they themselves would've identified as lombardian, or sicilian, and before that as whatever the people called themselves there, be it etruscan, phoenician, greek, roman...\n\nBut wherever anybodies ancestors came from, and even as whatever nationality one identifies oneself with, the only defining trait of an Italian (or any other nationality of course) is the legal status as a citizen.\nTouchyTheFish: That's wonderfully progressive outlook, but it's borderline silly. Genetic and cultural ties are far more durable than legal ones. Citizenship is written in ink, not blood.\n","num_messages":9,"avg_score":33.6666666667,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0477,"11":0.0417,"12":0.0387,"13":0.037,"14":0.0301,"15":0.0218,"2":0.3058,"3":0.1825,"4":0.1332,"5":0.0979,"6":0.08,"7":0.0685,"8":0.0625,"9":0.0551},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0234,"4":0.0072,"5":0.0,"6":0.0,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2088532383,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.5332136445,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":487.0}

But was this the opinion of the majority?\n\nFrom what I\u2019ve read, North Vietnam and South Vietnam weren\u2019t really two countries, but rather two regions of the same country governed separately after the French vacated their colony there. The Geneva Accords, in which peace was brokered between the French and the Viet Minh, separated the two regions, but the separation was meant to be temporary until general elections could secure reunification under a single government. The War began after the President of South Vietnam refused to allow the planned elections and reunification in 1955 causing North Vietnam to seek reunification through force.\n\nThe South Vietnamese government\u2019s stated reason for not allowing the elections was that they did not sign the Geneva Accords therefor they didn\u2019t have to follow the accords.

It's obvious to me why it ended, but I don't understand how the years before were different?\nSo I get that the period was incredibly short, but I'm having a hard time understanding how the, say, 50 years before 1865 weren't equally \"wild\" and lawless, particularly considering how many new territories\/states were admitted to the Union.\n\nThe Union by 1865 had already moved quite far westward, in other words, and the beginnings of all those previous settlements certainly existed in lawlessness and strife. I imagine thievery, robbery, etc. as well.\n\nAre there qualitative\/objective qualities about the \"wild west\" that really stand out as separate from previous ongoing trends toward westward expansion? The only thing that comes to mind for me is the gold boom, as we often associate wild west tales with gold prospecting. But I'm at a loss, when I imagine the American west, for why the end of the Civil War seems to mark this different epoch, when nothing from my studies stands out as being that different in terms of westward expansion behaviors.\nMAGolding: The conditions which made the Wild West wild, to the degree that they were actually historical and not fictional,  had different time spans which overlapped to a degree, but not enough that there was one single period when all of those conditions existed at once.  So the image of the Wild West is largely non historical since there was never a time when all the aspects of the Wild West existed at the same time.\n\nAnd it seems to me that the wildest part of the Wild West was the Indian Wars.  Compared to the Indian Wars, even the most ferocious other aspects of the West were more like the Mild West.\n\nThe period of intense Indian Wars in the trans-Mississippi West lasted for a little more than 20 years from about 1855 or so to about 1877 or so.\n\nThere were various Indian conflicts and wars in the West on and off from about 1812 or 1823 to 1890, or 1898, or 1918, or 1923, but the main period of Indian Wars began in the mid 1850s as the number and intensity of Indian Wars rapidly increased and ended in the mid to late 1870s as the number and intensity of Indian Wars rapidly decreased.\n\nTo the degree that Indian Wars are an important part of the Wild West, the end of the Civil War in 1865 was about halfway through the period of intense Indian Wars and also about halfway through the longer period of sporadic Indian Wars.\n\nTherefore, I don't think that the wilder aspects of the history of the West began in 1865.\n\nIt may be noted that all through the 19 Century the literacy rate in the USA was rapidly increasing and communications were becoming more rapid and certain.  Thus popular culture was spreading to more and more of the population.  So in the later parts of the 19th century the legend of the Wild West arose and became more and more widespread, even while the west was becoming tamer and tamer.\n\nSo 1865 was the year when sensational war news from the Civil War came to an end, and the public's thirst for exciting news stories and exciting popular fiction coincided with increasing news coverage of the West and increasing publication of sensational fiction about the West, and thus more or less with the birth, or rapid growth spurt, of the image of the Wild West, more than with any sort of beginning of any real aspect of the Wild West.\nthe_twilight_bard: Fascinating. How exactly did the Civil War impact relations with the Native Americans? Did they see the war as an opportunity to capitalize, or as a potential end to their own conquest? Do we have extant records that show us what the Native Americans thought about the Civil War?\nMythicalGnome: https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Native_Americans_in_the_American_Civil_War\n\nNatives were all over the place as far as what they believed about the Civil War. They mostly were worried about sovereignty and loss of culture in this period.\n\nThe Choctaws actually had slaves, and many Natives were fond of the Confederacy as they viewed Federal overreach as a blockade on their sovereignty.\n\nThe Cherokee fought on both sides and had internal conflicts. Give the link a read. It's very fascinating.\nthe_twilight_bard: Awesome, I'll be sure to check it out.

There was also a concentration along the North east coast: Fernandina down to New Symerna with Jacksonville (generally Pro-Union because of trade) the largest city with only 2000 people.  Pensacola in the far west was tied closer to Alabama than the rest of Florida, and Key West which was extremely isolated. The rest of the state was virtually empty.\n\nThe demographics of Florida dramatically changed starting with the Spanish-American War in 1898, the building of the railroads south to Tampa and Miami. The concentrations along the Southern Coasts and the central part of the state simply didn't exist until more than 50 years after the Civil War. Northern Florida is tied to the old south, Central and Southern not at all.\nGlader_Gaming: I was born in south Florida, grew up in north Georgia, and now live in Tallahassee, Florida. I tell everyone most of Florida is a Yankee (Northern)state, especially south Florida. Tallahassee is a lot like Georgia and other states in the Deep South. As far as I am concerned everything south of Gainesville is Yankee and can suck it. \n\nBasically much of southern Florida and the large cities here are full of people from northern states who wanted to move for sunshine. They are very different culturally than southerners. In my experience people from the Deep South love sports, especially football and baseball. Whole towns close down for high school football. There are 5 churches within a one mile area. The food we eat is just different, the accents are different. The ways we grew up were different. Most people in the south seem to have grown up in non major urban areas, (minus charlotte, New Orleans, Atlanta). People from the north just do things different. It seems like many more of them have grown up in or near major urban areas. They are more accustomed to a completely different climate. They have accents that sound foreign down here. People from NY and NJ are considered very rude down here. Shoot northerners even drive a car different. \n\nEverything I just said is based off of my experiences and the people I know who have had types of experiences like this. Not all northerners fit into the descriptions above nor do all southerners. \n\nThe point is that the main difference is the cultural.

Romans in media are often depicted as clean shaven, is that accurate and was that just for profesional soldiers and the upper echelons of society? Would all the peasants have big beards? Sorry for how poorly this is phrased I'm just curious.\nIM3dpenguin: You are making assumptions about how shaving and cutting hair works.  If you can sharpen a stone sharp enough it will easily cut hair, native Americans used sharpened rocks to clean hair from skins, and access to bronze and iron blades would be far superior to stone.  You forget those blades were sharp enough to pierce skin it would be sharp enough to cut hair.\nczarcy: >You are making assumptions about how shaving and cutting hair works.\n\nI've done it for years, but I'm unaware of how they use to do it that's why I'm asking.\n\n>If you can sharpen a stone sharp enough it will easily cut hair, native Americans used sharpened rocks to clean hair from skins\n\nNative Americans can't grow substancial facial hair at all though, many think of it as disgusting. So people would just break obsidian daily and drag it across their face? I don't buy that.\n\n>You forget those blades were sharp enough to pierce skin it would be sharp enough to cut hair.\n\nI don't think that's a fair assumption at all, piercing and cutting flesh is mostly attributed to the force behind it, not how fine the edge is for shaving, bronze is notoriously difficult for retaining an edge. You ever shave with the same razor after shaving a full beard? It dulls and pulls at hairs rather than giving you a smooth shave and even that retains an edge finer than bronze. Besides, would blades not have been costly? Not like disposable razors today people would likely value whatever knives they had. Skinning animals and repeated sharpening gives knives a shelf life.\nTicklings: >Native Americans can't grow substancial facial hair at all though, many think of it as disgusting. So people would just break obsidian daily and drag it across their face? I don't buy that.\n\nThat's quite a generalization of numerous tribes\/groups spanning an entire continent. Some Native Americans have hardly any facial hair, but many do\/can.  \n\nAlthough plucking the hair seems to have been the preferred method of removal. Sharpened clam shells are also documented as being popular and traded for that purpose.\nczarcy: Okay so that was an unfair generalization and I won't speak about the entire continent but here in Canada the Ojibway can't grow facial hair for shit. The mi'kmaq can but they are basically metis. They explained it to me that in general it was common for tribes to find facial hair to be vulgar and they can't really grow facial hair and if they do it's sparse because of some past European intermingling. Here in Ontario I've gone tree planting with natives while living in camp with them for months and they never grow any.\n\n>Although plucking the hair seems to have been the preferred method of removal.

We\u2019ve molded them into racing machines and solar-powered engines of industry and agriculture, we\u2019ve made eating horsemeat taboo and thrown elaborate horse-flesh banquets, we\u2019ve used them to test machine guns, deliver bombs, and carry our most important leaders, sold them for millions and ground them up into fertilizer, we\u2019ve even made them dance to prove a kingdom was stable and bred wild horses to legitimize dodgy eugenic theories.

Horses actually went extinct in the wild in the 1960s, so truly the only reason they exist is because we domesticated them. \ngoatart: Horses went extinct in the wild? Wow. Could you elucidate a little on that, regarding how\/why they went extinct, etc? Thank you!\nSusannaForrest: Post-domestication, some genuinely wild horses survived. By the nineteenth century, there were just two types left: the tarpan (western steppes and eastern Europe) and the Przewalski's horse or takhi in Central Asia and the western steppes.\nThe tarpan was driven to extinction (literally \u2013 the last one was chased till it broke a leg) in the late nineteenth century. \n\nThe Przewalski sorta survived in increasingly hostile territory, being hunted for its meat and, later, as a specimen (people would come from Europe and steal the foals of entire herds). They ended up in the Gobi and mountains on the Chinese\/Mongolian border and the last one was seen there some time in the 1960s.\n\nHowever, all those collectors still had the Przewalskis they'd managed to catch and they bred some. It's been a long and tangled history involving world wars and various nationalist theories, but there are now about 2,000 Przewalskis in the world \u2013 all descended from just 13 horses post WW2. They have a different number of chromosomes to domestic horses and look exactly like the horses in cave paintings.\n\nThey do have some domestic blood though. They've been \"rewilded\" in some locations in Mongolia and Kazakhstan. I was lucky to see those in central Mongolia, at Hustai National Park.\n\nAll other horses are descended from domestic horses one way or another.\n","num_messages":11,"avg_score":8.0909090909,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0493,"11":0.0461,"12":0.0434,"13":0.0414,"14":0.0389,"15":0.0349,"2":0.3255,"3":0.2028,"4":0.1443,"5":0.1126,"6":0.0886,"7":0.0741,"8":0.0643,"9":0.0538},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0284,"4":0.0095,"5":0.0032,"6":0.0,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2056985754,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.4803149606,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":460.0}

Thought the people here would be interested to discuss it more generally. Pike and Shot for the win.\n\nHere's what I asked.\n\n-----------------------\n\nIn the 16th to 17th centuries, where pike and shot was the dominant form of warfare... how important was the length of the pike? Do sources indicate the army with the longest pikes would assuredly win? There was a discussion about this, and some claimed the longest pike would assuredly win, which has made me curious.\n\nA good way to determine the answer to this might be to look at what lengths of pikes nations were fielding at this time. If some of the successful nations fielded shorter pikes than their rivals, that implies it wasn't an all or nothing affair. A battle that demonstrates pikemen with shorter pikes winning would also demonstrate length isn't the deciding factor.\n\nWhile I'm focusing on the renaissance with this question, examples from earlier centuries (like the Hellenistic or Roman periods) are perfectly valid.\nI_dream_a_meme: Hellenistic and Roman period pikes aren't really valid because of shields. Using a shield you could easily enough push through a pike formation, which makes length fairly irrelevant.\nfunkmachine7: Then later pikes are just as invalid due to sword and buckler men.\nbut such roles fade out of use in the Pike and shot era.\nSimply the more and better guns means that it get harder to cover the distance.\nI_dream_a_meme: No. A buckler is very different to the type of shields they had in the roman period \nfunkmachine7: So the roman shields are larger, but still trying to push your way it to a wall of spear head straight on is daft.\nIf your a roman then use your pilums, formed up pike men don't any ability counter attack.\nI_dream_a_meme: Yeah because each roman has 50 pilums.\n\nThe pikes would be shoved off the side of the curved shield (roman scutums were curved btw). It would be difficult to do but not impossible. \n\nfunkmachine7: Each legionary has 2, that's 10,400 it total and there being thrown from near blank point range at people that can't duck, doge or raise there shield freely. \n\nSure it might be possible but your trying to attack 5 skilled, well armed and armored men head on, fighting them in the way there highly specialized at.\n\nEdit:Off the side of a scutum so in your mates way?\n\nCastener: A popular strategy was to combine pikes with sword and buckler. So you had skirmishers rushing under the pikes, to try and overwhelm them at close range. Another popular alternative was the doppels\u00f6ldner with a zweihander, who obviously had no shield.\n","num_messages":8,"avg_score":1.5,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0496,"11":0.0473,"12":0.0458,"13":0.0364,"14":0.0269,"15":0.0205,"2":0.3014,"3":0.1811,"4":0.1404,"5":0.1046,"6":0.0778,"7":0.0661,"8":0.0582,"9":0.0514},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0247,"4":0.0,"5":0.0,"6":0.0,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2209653092,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.4955357143,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":565.4}

I knew it was special, even though a bit dirty, and grabbed it.  At 8'x4' it was a bit big for my office, so I had to trade my office for the dining room to accommodate it! \\(Hah!\\)\n\nImages: [https:\/\/imgur.com\/gallery\/UfrA3PW](https:\/\/imgur.com\/gallery\/UfrA3PW)\n\n  \nFurther investigation as I picked it up and cleaned \\(dusted and waxed\\) found an inscription stating the desk was originally in the Treasury Building, Room 66. The markings and age of the piece have been validated by the Heraldry Society in the UK. The first Regent's marking on the desk is George III, and it includes markings for William IV and George V.  Kent's Treasury Building is now the Cabinet Office.\n\n  \nI know that this isn't  an \"identify my furniture\" subreddit, but I'm looking for help on finding resources to help me determine who exactly sat at this desk, and given that it is a historically important desk and that office was held by important historical figures \\-\\- maybe a history geek might be able to help me out.\n\n  \nIt  was likely sold at the time of the Treasury's move to the new Treasury  building \\(1920\\-30s\\) or in 1940 when the Treasury Buildings was bombed,  which led to an evacuation of the historic furnishings from the First Floor principal rooms.\n\n  \nRoom 66 appears on this map in the top right corner \\([http:\/\/www.british\\-history.ac.uk\/sites\/default\/files\/publications\/pubid\\-748\/images\/figure0748\\-083.gif](http:\/\/www.british-history.ac.uk\/sites\/default\/files\/publications\/pubid-748\/images\/figure0748-083.gif)\\).\n\n  \n**Room 66**  \nFinding out who exactly used Room 66 is now the challenge, and that's where I seek a historian's assistance.\u00a0 As of 1835, the Secretary of State was using the Lord President's Office.\u00a0 It appears that the Secretary of the Treasury, Chancellor of the Exchecquer and First Lord \\(Prime Minister\\) used the principal rooms which include the room in question.\n\n  \nIt's funny, the US Treasury's 19th Century history and documents are readily available.

Good tips to get the right information from the National Archives are also much appreciated!\nWaitingforadragon: My only suggestion is, would it be possible to find an internal mailing list \\(if such a thing even existed back then\\), as that could potentially offer some clues as to who was in that room at different time periods. \n\nIn terms of getting the right info from the National Archives, I've been told that it's better to contact them in advance to ask for advice on what documents to access, as not everything is digitised or available to access at the drop of a hat. \n\nThis is an outside shot, but there is a genealogy forum in the UK called Rootschat.

How did the US react when they found out who he really was? \nsvarogteuse: It was the Cold War, anyone who fought Communists was generally considered an ok guy. U.S. generals were suggesting using what was left of the German military to immediately fight the Soviets, there wasn't a stigma.  Also note the fascist dictators the U.S. supported against communist threats. There were some bad guys in that group but crimes were overlooked in the name of fighting Communism.\n\nLooking at his record its not like he was a long time dedicated Waffen-SS solider committing atrocities across Europe. He served in the Finnish army for the entire war until Finland left the war in Nov 1944. He did train with the Germans in that time, Finland was allied with the Germans against the Soviets. Later he did train with the Germans again, so he could fight Communists for Finnish groups. He seems to have only joined the Waffen-SS in the last months of the war seemingly so he could specifically fight the Soviets (there seems to be a theme developing here) and because he couldn't even get back to Finland. His stint in the Waffen-SS seems to have lasted less than 4 months and some of that was as a POW.

Is that true?\n\nNext up, did or did not each legion have an attached unit of ballistarii? In one place, I read that it did, and in the other that legions rarely had their own artillery.\n\nWhat was the training process like to become a legionary? How were you recruited, what was the actual training like, how long did it last, how were your legion, cohort, century, and contubernium that you would be joining chosen, etc.\n\nAfter that, what were standard sizes for units in battle? I mean, as in one formation. An entire legion pressed together in a testudo doesn't seem very feasible, but neither does a single contubernium. Did it just depend on the battle?\n\nHow were centuries and... uh... more than one contubernium named or numbered? Were they at all?\n\nHow were (I forget the actual name) horn blowers distributed?

Surely if you travel from Qu\u00e9bec to Canada , or vice-versa, you would experiment that.\n\nThey took a song written specifically to represent the Qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois (yeah, pre-WWI, the word \"Canadian\" meant what we now know as \"Qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois\".

Hahaha !  They were Anishinabe, Cree, Mohawk, Atikamek, etc, not \"Canadians\". Lol, it's the best one I heard today.\n\nCanada meant \"village\". First Nations people did not use the word \"Canadian\".\n\nThanks for the laugh, bro.  And learn your history a little.\n4011Hammock: Yes. Upper Canada residents called themselves Canadian. And yes, they referred to the first nations in Canada Canadians as well. Jesus Christ. And \"the Canadiens\" are \"le Club de hockey Canadien\". \"Canadiens\" is a nickname. So please, try actually knowing what you're talking about before telling people to \"learn your history a little\". \nAmazingKnowledge: The name Canada was first use in a map of Jacques Cartier for all the land north of the St-Lawrence (at the time Canada river). Than the french used the term to designate the inhabitants of the land (first nations). In late 1600s, the meaning shifted to identify the french living in the colony.\n\nFrom wikip\u00e9dia: https:\/\/en.m.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/French_Canadians\n\n\"From 1535 to the 1690s, the French word Canadien had referred to the First Nations the French had encountered in the St. Lawrence River valley at Stadacona and Hochelaga.[7] At the end of the 17th century, Canadien became an ethnonym distinguishing the inhabitants of Canada from those of France. After World War I, English-Canadians appropriated the term \"Canadian\" and French-Canadians identified as Qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois instead.\"\n","num_messages":8,"avg_score":317.25,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0529,"11":0.0458,"12":0.0399,"13":0.0376,"14":0.0365,"15":0.0357,"2":0.2999,"3":0.2004,"4":0.1657,"5":0.1324,"6":0.1073,"7":0.091,"8":0.0724,"9":0.0599},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0404,"3":0.1449,"4":0.1162,"5":0.0982,"6":0.0801,"7":0.0693,"8":0.0585,"9":0.0476},"special_characters_ratio":0.2225669958,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.4314079422,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":336.5}

I find a bit difficult to believe in something like that. But actually it seems that since Russia received a lot of foreign capital to invest in the country, the russian bourgeois were different of the rich bourgeois from England for example. I've also read that the serfs should get a property where they could plant, but it needed very long time to become real and I also would like to know if it was true.

One of the very first things that the new government did after the Bolshevik Revolution was indeed giving the land to peasants, yes. Although it\u2019s somewhat more complicated than that - the land was nationalized and delegated to local soviets (councils) for distribution. Private land ownership was prohibited. In effect, peasants got what they wanted, making them pro-Soviet, at least for a while.\nwaternyxe: but the serfs and peasants are the same?

Most people lived on bread and beer\/wine diet daily. I assume they must have come up with some good harm reduction techniques... \n\n\nkaz1030: Ancient Greeks fermented their  crushed grapes\/juice in open vats,  and since air-tight sealing was difficult,  spoilage was a problem.  Therefore most wines were not heavily fermented,  were consumed when \"young\"  and probably had a relatively low alcohol content.  Todays wines are approx.  14% so in ancient times it may have been less.  They also diluted their wine with water at ratios of 1:6 to 1:3.  At 1:6,   it must have been  like \"flavored\" water.  \nDasKapitalist: I'm a little dubious about open fermentation leading to lower ABV wine.  Even after a mere week wine is going to be 10-12%.\nkaz1030: Well,  I didn't phrase it correctly.  I added  the open fermentation as it might have effected the rate\/speed of spoilage for wine.   I don't quite understand how wine spoils.  It might be caused by exposure to aerobic  activity.  I know that pine tar resin was used to seal the lids of amphorae,  but it seems that this wasn't always effective.  \n\n\nIt's a little strange.  Wine drinking is always mentioned in Greek history,  but I haven't read anything substantial about the process for making wine,  storage limitations,  make-up and taste.  \nBromanJenkins: That's why the current natural wine movement is sort of interesting to me as a mead and cider maker. Think natural foods for wine: capturing wild yeasts or making use of natural yeasts on the skins of the grapes used for the wine. \n\nModern wine yeasts will bring your brew to 12-13% in a month or less in a sealed container, but the percentage is based on what the yeast can take and the presence of sugar to convert to alcohol. I am not entirely sure how sealing a container will effect fermentation time or alcohol content.\nkaz1030: Hmm.  I had always thought that a properly corked and sealed wine bottle,  in a cool dark place,  mostly terminated fermentation.  But,  I'm pretty clueless about vino.  I drink it by the mug.  I go by the old Russian tag,  \"quantity has a quality all it's own\".   \nBromanJenkins: The traditional sparkling wine making method is to add sugar and fresh yeast to a still wine when bottling it and having the fresh yeast ferment the wine further while in a sealed bottle. Yeast doesn't require the presence of air to produce alcohol, just the sugars from the medium it is in. Yeast will just eat whatever sugar you have in the liquid until it either consumes all of it or makes the medium too alcoholic for it to survive. \n\nDepending on what you want your alcohol level and flavor profile to be (the higher the alcohol the less sweet the final product and vice versa) you can select different types of yeast or rack the liquid away from the majority of the yeast while fermentation is still happening. \n","num_messages":7,"avg_score":3.2857142857,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.04,"11":0.0374,"12":0.0273,"13":0.0205,"14":0.015,"15":0.0111,"2":0.2953,"3":0.1827,"4":0.1399,"5":0.0991,"6":0.0718,"7":0.0575,"8":0.0475,"9":0.0423},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0077,"4":0.0,"5":0.0,"6":0.0,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2280246513,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.4712643678,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":476.0}

In my research, I have found that the European countries in Central and Northern are much more left than that in the United States.  \n\nFor example, the US has far more climate change deniers than any other European Country, according to a global trends 2014 study.  Additionally, many conservative parties in Europe support abortion, something heavily criticized by the conservative parties in the US.  \n\nAnother example is the Conservative Party in Great Britain.  They support abortion, same-sex marriage, action on climate change, stopping the death penalty, and national healthcare policy.  All of these things conservatives in the US loathe, and spend most of their time battling.  So my question:  Has this divide between US politics and European politics always been so wide, or is this left leaning Europe recent?\n\nSources:\nhttp:\/\/www.thewire.com\/politics\/2013\/08\/how-conservative-would-uk-conservatives-be-us\/67930\/\n\nhttp:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/interactive\/projects\/cp\/climate\/2015-paris-climate-talks\/where-in-the-world-is-climate-denial-most-prevalent\nBob9999999999999: Well, first of all, the right-left spectrum is a product of the French Revolution, so it didn't actually exist yet in 1776.\n\nSecond of all, the question itself depends on how you define \"right-wing\" and \"left-wing\", as the meaning of those terms has evolved over time. During the nineteenth century, \"right-wing\" pretty much meant \"pro-monarchy\" while \"left-wing\" pretty much meant \"anti-monarchy\". By that standard, the nineteenth-century U.S. was on the left simply by virtue of being a republic at a time when Europe was still dominated by monarchies, either absolute or constitutional. Even the French Revolution gave way to Napoleon's French Empire and France didn't become a republic permanently until 1870, near the end of the century. We could alternatively apply the current definitions of \"right-wing\" and \"left-wing\" retroactively, but that would just result in everyone being wildly far-right.\nMister_Justin: What in asking is: has America always been traditionally more conservative than Europe?  This is comparatively.  The definition of conservative and liberal are always in fluctuation, but as those definitions have fluctuated, has America been more conservative than Europe?\nBob9999999999999: In the nineteenth century, the terms \"conservative\" and \"liberal\" had very different meanings than they do today. Conservatism meant the sort of conservatism of Klemens von Metternich, i.e. maintaining absolute monarchy, keeping aristocratic privilege entrenched, and crushing the next would-be French Revolution. The countries considered most \"conservative\" were the harsher absolute monarchies, such as Czarist Russia and Metternich's own Habsburg Austria.\n\nMeanwhile, \"liberal\" meant more-or-less what \"libertarian\" does now, hence some libertarians describing themselves as \"classical liberals\". The United States, Britain, and occasionally France were considered to be the more \"liberal\" powers in the nineteenth century. The people who espoused ideas similar to those of present-day liberals were considered \"socialists\" or \"radicals\". In both the U.S. and Europe, they mainly existed on the fringes.\n\nBasically, if you brought someone forward in time from the nineteenth century, they would describe the Republican Party as \"liberal\" and the Democratic Party as \"radical\".\nMister_Justin: But on policies like labor and social reform, were European countries more progressive as they are now?  For instance, minimum wage, child labor laws, slavery abolishment, civil rights, etc.\nBob9999999999999: >minimum wage\n\nNew Zealand passed the world's first minimum wage law in 1894, after which the concept spread to Australia and Britain. The U.S. wasn't too far behind.\n\n>child labor laws\n\nThis is what Wikipedia says:\n\n>In 1839 Prussia was the first country to pass laws restricting child labor in factories and setting the number of hours a child could work. Though the reasons behind why these laws were passed were to expand working conditions for adults, it did lead to laws being passed across Europe. In 1839 Britain enacted its Factory Act which restricted child labour and in 1841 France adopted its first child labour laws. After Britain, France and Germany adopted their laws. Almost the entirety of Europe had child labour laws in place by 1890. Although individual states had adopted laws starting with Massachusetts in 1844, the United States did not enact federal laws until the Fair Labor Standards Act was passed in 1938.\n\nPrussia is basically present-day Germany, by the way. Unlike Britain and France, Prussia was considered to be one of the \"conservative\" powers and it had an absolute monarchy until 1848.\n\n>slavery abolishment\n\nFor the most part, the U.S. was a few decades or so behind Europe when it came to abolishing slavery. However, there were some European colonies in which slavery was not abolished until after it had been abolished in the U.S.\n\n>civil rights\n\nCivil rights are integral to classical liberalism. When the U.S. passed the Bill of Rights in 1789, it was way ahead of most of Europe, with Britain and Revolutionary France being the only real exceptions.\n\nHowever, I assume you are saying \"civil rights\" to mean \"anti-discrimination laws\". The U.S. seems to have been ahead of Europe in terms of passing laws against racial discrimination, but this is probably just a reflection of the fact that racial discrimination has historically been a bigger problem in the U.S. than in Europe. In Europe, discrimination has historically been based more on religion and European countries have been passing laws about religious toleration since before the U.S. existed. In terms of women's rights, the U.S. has generally been in about the same place as Western Europe and, if anything, a little bit ahead. France, for instance, did not give women the vote until 1944 compared to 1920 in the U.S.\nMister_Justin: This was exactly what I was looking for.

Well Pyrhhus never sacked rome. He was in magna graecia, \"defending\" cities like Tarentum, Rhegium and Messana from Roman expansionism. He definitely tore up some of the Roman armies for a few years there though. \n\nEdit to your Edit- Just for clarity, Pyrhhus was more a liberator. Southern Italy at the time were made up of greek city states (like greece proper). A dispute broke out between them and the Romans, and they called on Epirus to defend them. \n\nSo Pyrhhus came and succesfully defeated some Romans for a few years. He was so successfull that the greeks began to fear him as he began to consolidate power. Pyrrhus eventually lost support and man power and returned to mainland greece where he got imbittered in another war attempting to install a puppet king to Sparta.\n\n\nIranianGenius_: > He was so successfull that the greeks began to fear him as he began to consolidate power. Pyrrhus eventually lost support and man power and returned to mainland greece where he got imbittered in another war attempting to install a puppet king to Sparta.\n\nWas that a fatal error by Pyrrhus or was it the Greek colonies lacking  foresight? I'm imagining a Hellenic alliance in Southern Italy keeping the Romans at bay and stopping them from expanding.\n\nDo we know whether the Carthaginians would've backed Pyrrhus as well? \n\n\nyamsjustyams: Pyrrhus was a brilliant tactician on the field, but didn't make very wise decisions off it. The problem is he would go from one war to the next to forge his empire, which massively depleted his army and exhausted resources. \n\nAfter winning a war against Macedon, he immidiately invaded italy. So while he was preoccupied with Rome, Macedon rebelled. The italian greek states were between a rock and a hard place- they wanted their independance, but didnt have the military power to insure it. That's why they called on Epirus for help against Rome and Carthage. \n\nWhen Epirus did come to italy, he decided he wanted the greek colonies for himself- which led them also to rebel. After eventually being forced to leave italy, he went to war against Sparta and was killed in battle. I think he idolized his mother's cousin (alexander) too much and was just too ambitous for his own good.\n\nAs for Carthage. Well Carthage had a long history of competing\/waring with the greek states over control of the western mediteranian. At the time while the Romans were in conflict with the greeks of southern italy, the Carthagenians were fighting for control of Sicily against greek city states like Syracuse. So technically, Carthage and Rome were allied against Epirus, even though they fought on different fronts. \n\nIt's quite impressive when you consider Pyhrrus was not only at war with, but largely won most his battles against the superpowers of the time.

All those famous explorers setting off on ships from Portugal and Spain are the first wave of modernity.\n\nFor Medieval explorers probably the most famous are Marco Polo (Europe), Ibn Battuta (Islam) and Zheng He (China).\nkennj123: Your probably right in the end, but, I would consider it still the middle ages up until about the late 1500s or very early 1600s.  Spains and Portugal's exploits in the 1500s were similar operations that had happened since the dawn of time, pure exploitation and extraction of wealth.  Age of Enlightenment which started early 1600s was the real birth of the modern era.  The sheer scales of what Spain and Portugal were sitting on was incomprehensible, and everyone else in Europe wanted in on it.  By the 1650s the Dutch-English commercial and war ships and corporations firmly established the modern era, basically the period of superpowers, the ability to project power around the globe.\ndessy_22: The problem is the 'line' between the two eras happened in different places places at different times and also depends upon what criteria is used.\n\nFrederick II in the 13th Century has all the attributes of being enlightened. \n\nThe influx of 55,000 texts the West from Constantinople before it fell in the 15th Century was a big trigger for the Enlightenment.\n\nCannon was a huge factor. Europeans wrote the formula for gunpowder and described its use for projectiles in warfare in the first half of the 13th Century. Certainly, cannon use promoted the study of mathematics, greatly aided by the newly introduced numbering system from India via Persia.\nkennj123: I agree, drawing of lines is messy.  A lot of the 'modern era' was kicked off with the Humanism movements in the 1100 - 1200s.  A lot of things happened between then and the early 1600s, but then the sheer scale of results of all that development took off.  The 1600s were the inflection point, when GDPs and technology exploded.  Like your cannon example, in the 1500s naval battles were typically fought with merchant vessels converted to military,  and the ships grappled together and fought an essentially land battle.  In the mid 1600s the galleon, purpose built triple decks of cannon, were built in large numbers.  Before that you could take an educated Greek or Roman and they would understand what they saw.  After the mid 1600s I think they would be dumbfounded.\n","num_messages":5,"avg_score":0.8,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0384,"11":0.0359,"12":0.0319,"13":0.0213,"14":0.0144,"15":0.0081,"2":0.3078,"3":0.1879,"4":0.1325,"5":0.0985,"6":0.0702,"7":0.0568,"8":0.0481,"9":0.0418},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.039,"4":0.0074,"5":0.0,"6":0.0,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2201806291,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.4888888889,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":323.3}

After visiting I am shocked this part of Civil War history is not more prevalent in EVERY US History text book from middle school on up.  Everyone knows Appomattox court house and the surrender by Lee to Grant but how about the story that Jefferson Davis wanted General Johnston to keep fighting and it was Johnston himself who decided he and his men had had enough and surrendered to Sherman at a local family farmhouse owned by the Bennett family!  Unreal most text books end with Sherman just burning his way through Georgia and do not count the second (or arguably 1st most important) biggest surrender of the Civil War in North Carolina\nhttp:\/\/www.bennettplacehistoricsite.com\/\n\nI urge anyone who travels to the Raleigh area of NC to check this place out, its fascinating \nWithouterspoon: Something like 90,000 troops surrendered there, right?  I remember going there, looking around, trying to imagine what that many soldiers would look like.  Very cool place, and you're right, very under appreciated slice of history.\nDiscko14: Yes, as far as I remember (I was just there first time on Friday) Confederate General Johnston surrendered his 90,000 troops (from basically the rest of the South) to General Sherman at the Bennett house where they drew up the terms of surrender.  Interesting facts about this. The first house they went to the Neil House, told the generals she wouldn't let any Yankees on her property and sent both armies down the road! set you of you know what on that woman\nthe first surrender was sent to Washington and they did not approve of it and send Grant down there to properly draw it up. Grant did not want to embarrass a general like Sherman so he let him have another crack at it and this time Washington approved.\nSteveweing: Sherman was surprised his March to the Sea was so much better remembered than his march north through Georgia and the Carolina's to engage Johnston.  With the March to the Sea, he swept through the state with little resistance in order to reconnect to the Union army and supplies.  \n\nHeading north from there was unexpected and quite an achievement.  They raced through an impenetrable swamp by building dozens of miles of improved roads per day to move the army.\n\nJohnston was amazed by that and later stated he thought Sherman's army the greatest one since the time of Julius Cesar.\n\nSherman sometimes overstepped his bounds into the political space.  Lincoln told him to get peace and be generous with his peace terms.  When he did offer generous terms, based on Grants, it led to tremendous bitterness after Lincoln was assassinated then the war department rejected those terms.\n\nIn another example, of political overreach, Sherman granted 40 acres of Carolina land to each family to many thousands of freed slaves.  That was revoked 9 months later by Andrew Johnson as Generals didn't have the authority to grant anything past the duration of the war.\n\nBut it was his political and social understanding of the Southern people which guided his military campaigns and made him so effective at ending the war.\nDiscko14: It may have been those 40 acres that the War Department originally said oh hell no to. Our tour guide only mentioned it was the civilian part of the surrender Washington did not like.  correct all the way on Lincoln though.  You wonder how much better reconstruction may had gone if he had a second term.   \nSteveweing: Here is an interesting link where Sherman started up the whole idea on 40 acres and a mule.  https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Sherman%27s_Special_Field_Orders,_No._15\n\nHe issued that well before the surrender.  I was just commenting that it wasn't the first time he overstepped when generals normally do.  \n\nHe's often remembered for abandoning Slaves in his march northward but he couldn't protect and feed them all and needed to focus on winning the war.  It's often forgotten how many millions of slaves he directly freed and the huge generosity of this field order.  \n\nAndrew Johnson was kind of the opposite of Lincoln.  I do think Lincoln would have done something to help the freed slaves.  For one thing, he let the field order stand during his lifetime.  It was only revoked after Lincoln was assassinated.  \n\nIn his (awesome) memoirs, Sherman detailed the whole chronology of the surrender of Johnston and the debacle with the terms of surrender which Lincoln first outlined then Washington rejected.  He was extremely bitter.  During the huge grand review after the war, Sherman very visibly shook hands with the president and all his cabinate but refused to shake Stanton's outstretched hand.   \n","num_messages":6,"avg_score":3.3333333333,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0366,"11":0.0321,"12":0.0303,"13":0.0293,"14":0.0287,"15":0.025,"2":0.3338,"3":0.2087,"4":0.1449,"5":0.1055,"6":0.081,"7":0.069,"8":0.0585,"9":0.0461},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0316,"4":0.0097,"5":0.0,"6":0.0,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2053933496,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.4975728155,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":434.7}

Deficit financing means they financed their acivities by simply borrowing a lot.  \n\n\n The question is, who gave them this much amount of money while they obviously see that germany has huge deficit ? \nT1D1: I'll probably be corrected ...but I think they started printing their own currency and broke away from global banks. \nbfercan: You cant finance yourself by printing money unless it is backed by gold or valuable assets. Maybe at the beginning it seems its working but hyperinfilation definitely occur like in 1920 germany.\nLobMob: No that is wrong. Prices (and thus inflation) are determined by demand and supply. There are situations were the industrial capacity of an economy isn't used fully. In that case a government can use the printing press without creating inflation.\n\nHyperinflation like 1920s Weimar isn't caused by the printing press but a collapsing public order. In wiemarar French troops invaded the industrial centre of Germany, in Zimbabwe the government destroyed a core industry. \n\nBut that general point aside, they just turned the country into a command economy. They also nationalized savings. Anecdote: My great-grandparents used to put some savings into gold in the bank. During the war they got notifications their gold was transferred into \"certificates\". Those naturally were worthless after the war. \nbfercan: thank you for sharing real life experiences from your family, it is interesting to read. \nRavingMuninn: Here is a simplified example of what the user was talking about, in case it is helpful to you or someone else:\n\nLet's say that the country is producing 80 million tons of coal per year, and there is 15% unemployment. The government can print money, use it to buy 20 million tons of coal, and this will lead to increased value of coal by lowering supply AND will increase demand for coal labor, thereby leading to lower unemployment of 10% by creating jobs for coal extraction and improve quality of life by increasing the wages of coal laborers. \n\nIf that coal is then used to produce electricity, and that electricity leads to the production of goods throughout the country that people need to buy, and the newly hired coal miners are using their money to buy those things, then the economy remains stable.\n\nBut doing this can also not work out. Let's say that in the above example that 80 million tons of coal per year was 100% of the capacity of the mines currently being worked. This means that no matter how hard they try, the coal companies can't increase production by hiring workers. Instead, they have to take money and spend it opening new mines. In the mean time, you've bought up a major portion of the country's coal production. Because there isn't a fast fix in the form of new labor, the cost of coal shoots up. This leads to higher prices for electricity throughout the country, which trickles down to other things. The coal companies, seeing these high prices, decide to take the money they got from the coal purchase to open new mines, hoping to take advantage of these new high prices. Skip ahead to the next year. Now they are producing 100 tons of coal per year, but the government doesn't choose to buy coal again. Now they are overproducing coal, the cost of coal plummets, and the new mines they opened (usually by borrowing money) are a net loss. This leads to layoffs, and all the money and time spent building that new infrastructure (e.g., new mines) was wasted because it's now decaying in mothballs not being used.\n\nThis is very, very simplified, but hopefully it helps you visualize the issues at play.\n\nThe short take away is this: printing money is a way of infusing cash into an economy. When that cash is spent to create things with upkeep costs or to expand industry beyond market demands, it's going to blow up in your face. If you spend that money on one-time-cost things that cannot lose value (i.e., paying labor costs) then it is much safer for the economy.\nbfercan: Lets assume government will keep buying +20 ms coal. Why do you think that coal factories will produce exactly +20 ms ton \/year ? They will calculate the profit maximization point and maybe they will decide to produce + 10ms coal although there is a +20ms demand. that decision will cause increase in coal prices. Increase in coal prices will increase the cost of inputs of other factories and results in higher infilation.  \n\n\nIn the worst case coal factory may even chose to not to increase production and they will just increase the price of coal.\nRavingMuninn: I was just giving an (obviously reductionist) example. Obviously, it's a dynamic system. It's part of what makes tilting the scales of an economy so thorny. In nations that practice this sort of market manipulation (all of them) they control output by working with companies before the work is done to prevent over-production. The practice is more than a century old at this point, and they are very good at it.\n\nA good example of how this would work well would be if you knew that 1) you had surplus labor and 2) the current infrastructure was not being maximized. You could pay for the coal, turn around and give it to the power production industry (this is a model where environmental damage isn't a thing) and you would also produce more electricity, thus lower power costs nationwide, increasing production and reducing production costs. This would allow your new and old workers to spend less to obtain more, and would result in more money exchanging hands more often (which is the absolute measure of the health of an economy). \nbfercan: thanks for both answers, it widened my perception about economics. \nRavingMuninn: No worries. Bear in mind, this is obviously a very theory driven issue, that I don't claim to be more than what you might call an entry-level expert on economics, and that I'm personally persuaded by certain concepts (e.g., that money exchanging hands more often is the absolute measure of the health of an economy) that are obviously debatable.\n\nAnd you're welcome.

At a certain point it had a quarter of the world's landmass and population under its control. My question is how did it become so huge. What were the main events, people, policies, etc. that led to its rise from a few colonies in the Americas to its world-spanning dominion?\n\nI'm aware that Napoleon's defeat removed Britain's main rival and that the Industrial Revolution had a significant impact on how the empire operated, especially since it was a mercantile empire if I'm not wrong. But how was it able to take advantage of its colonies' resources? How did it gain its later colonies in Africa and India, where other countries couldn't? What made it so invincible in its conquests and battles?\ndeezee72: It's worth pointing out that when we talk about Britain controlling nearly a quarter of the world's population, nearly 70% of that was India. As a result, when looking at how the British empire grew to that size, it makes the most sense to start from the British conquest of India. \n\nThe lessons from British India are often applicable when trying to understand the British empire elsewhere, and that's not even accounting for the fact that Britain depended on India as a power base for controlling many of its other colonies in the Middle East and South East Asia.\n\nThe British empire in India is often described as an \"accidental empire\". Britain by this point had already become a major trading power as it sought to control the spice trade, but it did not yet control any large colonies (the largest, the future United States, had just 3M people at independence). \n\nThe tipping point was the collapse of the Mughal Empire in India. The Mughals had granted trading concessions to many foreign powers in order to facilitate trade. When the Mughals collapsed (due to unrelated reasons - there was a succession crisis), this created a power vacuum in their territories in India.\n\nAs a result, local Indians were willing to rally to the banners of European powers that could offer order and stability. At the Battle of Plessey, often viewed as the turning point which established British control over India, Britain faced not an ancient empire, but a French-backed upstart, and their troops were predominantly Indians who owed no more loyalty to upstart lords than they did to the British.\n\nThis is a dynamic seen many times elsewhere in British or with other colonial powers. Until the Industrial Revolution and the Opium War in particular, European powers were not able to win head on conflicts against established local powers - and even then, the British were quick to sue for a limited victory because even with all their industrial might, there were real doubts about their ability to win a protracted war. The French were similarly industrialized and came very close to losing the Tonkin War - militarily, the war was a stalemate but the threat of Japan joining the war as a French ally forced Qing China to sue for peace.\n\nIt is also doubtful that Britain was ever fully able to take advantage of its colonies' resources. It is worth remembering that non-colonial powers like Germany were economically competitive with the British empire. \n\nThe British were not \"invincible\", as you are asking. The broad reach of their naval trading power allowed them to expand opportunistically across a massive geographic range - which is what truly caused them to become an empire where \"the sun never sets\".\njjack339: I would also add that in India most of the population was still Hindu despite most of the sub-continent being ruled by Islamic dynasties. Many times these dynasties were quite brutal.\n\nSo when the British went in they were not facing a unified India that had been ruled by strong Hindu empires\/ states, but rather it is quite fracture and they lacked a unified Indian identity.\n\nSo the British moving in was in large part a large upgrade in quality of life. In India at least the British were there for economic reasons as opposed to being on a crusade to mass convert the population by force.\ndeezee72: I think your overarching point is correct. Most of the population of India was not overly attached to the (mostly Muslim) ruling dynasties. India is such a huge region that most Indians at the time would not have identified people from distant parts of India as being the same people, let alone identified themselves with Muslim foreigners over Christian ones. \n\nHowever, it is worth commenting on:\n\n>In India at least the British were there for economic reasons as opposed to being on a crusade to mass convert the population by force.\n\nA bit of a nit pick, but for the most part the Islamic dynasties were not on a crusade to mass convert the population by force either. I think it's fair to say that many of the Islamic dynasties were also fairly economic in nature as well - as long as Hindus paid (sometimes extortionate) taxes, they were mostly left alone.\n\nIt is actually illegal in Islamic law to force people to convert. While anyone who has followed the news in Syria in the past few years would know that this law is not always followed, in India it generally was - the only well documented example of a violation of this law in Indian history was under Ghaznavids, who had been out of power for over 500 years by that point.\njjack339: Well, I do know the worst genocides in history took place over centuries in India by the Sultanates. Now I did assume it was a matter of forced conversions, and the real reason might have been cultural cleansing or simply killing people who resisted.\n\nMy overall point was it was brutal, thus falling under the British to them may have looked like the lessor of 2 evils at the time.\ndeezee72: There was certainly a large decrease in India's overall population during the 1000-1500 CE period, typically estimated at ~200M around 1000 and 120-170M around 1500. It is also true that this period coincided with the worst examples of persecution of Hindus by Muslim rulers (largely under the Delhi Sultanate and the Timurids).\n\nHowever, it is hard to say how much of this is cause-and-effect. This was also a period which saw large decreases in population elsewhere in the world due to the spread of pandemic diseases and wars started by nomadic tribes - China's population fell from 140M-65M over the same period, which is far more extreme that what we saw in India. Both trends were definitely present in India, and as a result while it is clear that, for instance, the Delhi Sultanate killed a lot of Hindus, it is hard to say whether this was a concerted campaign of persecution, or if it was simply because the Delhi Sultanate spent its entire existence in a near constant state of war and killed a lot of people in general. \n\nIt is also worth pointing out that the most extreme persecution was largely over by the time the British entered India. The Mughals had even abolished the head tax that non-Muslims were expected to pay in other Muslims states. There are not really good examples of people switching sides from other states to support the British - many of the Muslim princely states survived as British puppets, and the core of the British Raj was formed by territory which had been held by the Mughals, which collapsed on its own independently of European intervention.\n","num_messages":6,"avg_score":1.3333333333,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0466,"11":0.0431,"12":0.0402,"13":0.0364,"14":0.0334,"15":0.0318,"2":0.3332,"3":0.2119,"4":0.1642,"5":0.1244,"6":0.0953,"7":0.0773,"8":0.0635,"9":0.0527},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0239,"3":0.1144,"4":0.0669,"5":0.0492,"6":0.0408,"7":0.0354,"8":0.0301,"9":0.0262},"special_characters_ratio":0.204616999,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.5130368098,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":225.1}

Then, when Stalin reintroduced grain requisition, peasants had their grain taken from them forcibly.\n\nMy question is, how often was the grain 'forcibly' taken from them?

Or was there a more complex system of requisition?\n\nI'm still trying to get my head around how this whole thing worked at grass-roots.\n\nThanks in advance for any answers.\nppitm: Forcible grain requisition was something that happened in ordinary peasant communes (the 'mir'), not the kolkhoz, which was a Soviet institution.\n\nRequisitions were a tool used to fund industrialization, and as an element of repression while collectivizing agriculture. The kolkhoz just 'sold' grain like any other state-run business collective.\nTheSerdangMan: Ah I see. I was confused. I thought the kolkhoz referred to the peasant communes, whereas the sovkhoz referred to the state-owned farms. Seems the both of them are similar then. Thanks for clearing that up.\nppitm: The peasant commune, or 'mir' (which literally means 'world'), was the traditional arrangement of village-based agriculture in Russia. Every family owns a strip of land, and male heads of households make collective decisions in each village, assigning land, etc. It was viewed as a primitive form of pre-modern socialism at the time, but was also highly inefficient and incompatible with mechanized agriculture. After the Russian Revolution, the peasants began spontaneous uprisings, burning manor houses and breaking up the big noble estates in a way that effectively reconstituted the peasant commune.\n\nA village commune was often turned into a kolkhoz, but Soviet collectivized agriculture was more similar to the aristocratic large-scale commercial agriculture of the late 19th Century.\nTheSerdangMan: That makes sense. Okay, so in cases where grain requisition was occurring in peasant communes, how did this requisitioning process work? How frequently was grain seized from the peasants?\nppitm: I don't have any specific information, but you can't seize grain much more than once or twice a season.\n\nThe 'process' really ran the gambit from something similar to routine taxation, all the way to violent, deliberate starvation.\nTheSerdangMan: Right.

Their mystic was mostly built up by uncritical readers reading primary sources about the samurai and accepting what they say at face value. This is how horrendously inaccurate claims about Japanese culture get made into entire books in things like *The Chrysanthemum and the Sword*.\n\nWhile it is not always the correct lens to view history, a good rule of thumb whenever you read something like a moral code or opinionated perspective on how to lead a good life, you should remember that people rarely felt the need to admonish behavior that wasn't happening. In other words, if you read a primary source that says something to the effect of \"A samurai must never engage in gossip, gambling, or heavy drinking,\" then you shouldn't immediately assume that samurai all lived by these rules, but rather that someone (the writer of the primary source) was upset about the ongoing gossip, gambling, and heavy drinking amongst samurai.\n\nThis isn't always exact, but a lot of the mystique surrounding samurai came about through these kinds of errors. If someone felt the need to write down a social rule then there must have been a reason. People don't usually write down things that are so commonplace as to be mundane or universal.\nRypred: For sure. Edo samurai had to convince others (and probably themselves) that they deserved their position in society.  I'm sure written content like this, Bushido, or even Five Rings were all designed to convince society of the importance of maintaining the social class.  Like you said, samurai of the period were super involved in this sort of thing, and the only way to counteract it was by creating a document that says \"no look, we have a document saying we're not\".\n\nSamurai mythos really is funny. It's a great way for people to get interested in Japanese history, but it's a little disappointing when the romanticism fades away. Anyway, I kinda love how \"un-samurai\" the samurai really were (especially Edo period and beyond).\ndan_con: >Bushido, or even Five Rings were all designed to convince society of the importance of maintaining the social class\n\nBushido (as it's commonly known) was intended more to influence outside (Western) perceptions of Japan than convince the Japanese people of anything.\n\nIt was a mythology that imbued Japanese history with Christian virtues and chivalric values at a time when Japan was ending it's self-imposed isolationism and stepping out on to the world stage.\n\nThe Japanese, at the time Nitobe wrote \"The Soul of Japan\", for the most part, had never even heard the word Bushido and the book didn't really generate much interest.\nNewhollow: Yeah and i am sure all vikings raped and pillaged all the non whites. Honor is not just words people say. However the writings you are talking about are for scholars or someone needing to explain.\n\nHagakure i think mentioned. Something about the bushi being not put in a category or easily explained beyond being prepared to die. As opposed to the knight whom fought for god then country.\n\nSaying samaurai or the precepts of the code to be lacking is saying you are not a warrior under those rules. Something along the lines of being christian and not helping your fellow outside of race or other bull puckey.\n\nAnywho the bushido came late into being defined as western influence (technology and trade) and the waning of wars to a higher class of samurai. Mainly the poetry and aesthetics of being a samurai. The bushi were something way before that.\n\nAll soldiers who fought in battle were only promised death but that is because taking life means something else to somewhat mostly buddhist nation. Although local customs and traditions were the norm.\n\nAs for Nitobe all i can say is that only samurai or warriors can talk about war. If he is not a samurai it is not the bushido; again life is sacred. I play war games on video games but it does not compare to being a veteran who does not speak about warfare. \n\nOne point in the Hagakure was when a soldier worried about taking a life. The samurai said the death is the path for samurai and the honorable way to die. Not live or exist; if he is troubled about death then seek a priest not a practitioner of the bushido.\n\nThe rumor thing stems from mostly knowing your heart and soul and if you speak to harm better to do with weapons then words. Again to the lore of sword reflecting a samurais soul. Clean perfect instant kills to the enemy not a deluge of words. But during the \"romanticism\" rewrite they washed the gore unbalanced reality of those people and that time.\n\nHagakure was samurai of the bushi asked to speak on the bushido copied from a young scribe. At that time of change when charcoal became unpopular and samurai wrote poetry. The old man said he should have died on the battlefield.\n\nBook of five rings (miyamoto mushashi) another book to read if interested on the bushido not the bushi. Hagakure is just a collection of sayings and mini stories meant to give a clearer picture in the \"honor of death\".\n\nMainly in response to above and \/u\/genericpcuser and \/u\/rypred. I like when people use mythos when tossing of opinions about written history thinking something like bible powers meaning it happened as exactly written.\nRypred: I use the term in reference to the modern ideas we have about samurai.  While there was plenty of strength of will and men who fought and died for what they believed, we have a very inflated idea of their code or system.  There were loads of samurai who turned on their lords and plenty who would take dishonor over death.  A lot of our perceptions of samurai were created and\/or written by a class of samurai who had never seen combat nor had their fathers or grandfathers. For over 200 years a warrior class was pretty much unnecessary and very few had seen action. Therefore they did their best to convince the population they were still noble warriors.  \n\nI'm not saying samurai NEVER had these traits, or that ALL samurai were this way. There was definitely a time that samurai were badass warriors... Just not so much after the capital moved.\nNewhollow: My comment was mainly a response to multiple points all valid in a limited capacity of reddit logic. As for the OP and source material, never even bothered to tap.\n\nMy view is that killing is never honorable even in war time let alone peace. But to read a document that is way out of time and expecting no loss in translation was what ticked me off.\n\nPhilosophy of the samurai is why i red the two books i mentioned. Although i read art of war before them. English translations way after the people whom you get your direct understanding.\n\nModern ideas? Is war or killing ever necessary for a religion or code? Before the bible apparently people were bad and also after. I mention the bible because of a mythos. Again after jesus passed the word was written.\n\nBible is a part of recorded history as much as the many contradictory latin writings from war or historians. Back to the crusade of armies who battled.\n\nMy view is a samurai path is death. Just like any soldier. Some go awol. Some become ceaser then betrayed by a brother. Most die trying to kill.\n\nI am a japanophile to a certain degree and extent but for me i never saw the upper class as lesser than. Meaning the hierarchy of the social class as opposed to the military position. Which i think is the hair you all choose to split.\n\nEdit: wanted to mention i am typing on phone. Not going to change spelling errors. Also to clarify last paragraph in that the justification bit about upper class as lesser than is referencing samurai caste system being a malformed thing as it was a militaristic not social in my view. \n\nPeople are people no matter what and will break a rule or fix what they choose. Caste system is not en vogue. But comparatively what system in modern times can you laude over and say their are no issues and is perfect? I believe in democracy but think it still needs a reworking from its recent start position when it invaded america.\n\nIdeally i would rather we all can have all the upvotes. Or rather exist with our religion without the need to have the last breath over thine enemies or spread the disease of we are better than.\n","num_messages":7,"avg_score":651.1428571429,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0327,"11":0.0283,"12":0.0257,"13":0.0238,"14":0.0224,"15":0.0216,"2":0.3319,"3":0.2185,"4":0.1579,"5":0.1117,"6":0.0813,"7":0.0623,"8":0.0505,"9":0.0409},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0118,"3":0.0469,"4":0.0248,"5":0.0196,"6":0.017,"7":0.0157,"8":0.0144,"9":0.0131},"special_characters_ratio":0.200729927,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.517578125,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":573.2}

The same can be said for any country in Central America or Mexico.  Poor folks from those countries come here because there is danger and they don't have options for safety within their country due to crime and corruption. Americans traveling to Central America and Mexico can choose options that are safer: Because they have financial resources.    \n\n\nYou're a racist.  This conversation is over.\nmeanpride: No, whats racist is you generalizing the entire country. That its chaos everywhere. \n\nI never spoke ill will against other countries, that is all you.\nDollyPartonsFarts: I'm supporting the life stories of asylum seekers coming from those countries. There is chaos for these asylum seekers in their home countries in the aspects of life that are available to them.  \n\nWe then take those asylum seekers, separate them from their children and lock them up in accommodations that causing people to die.  \n\nI'm not sure how you look at yourself in the mirror with how deluded you are.\nmeanpride: How about the life stories of the people who found prosperity living in those countries? If someone can make a life there, others can as well.\nDollyPartonsFarts: So you get to choose who from another country has a valid life story and who doesn't?  Not a court?  You?  \n\nDo you think that you're going to find tons of people in Honduras who agree with you, that asylum seekers should just stay in Honduras and do their best to build a safe life for their children in a country with drug cartels that are corrupting entire police forces? You think that's realistic? \n\nWe used to say, \"Give us your huddled masses yearning to breath free\" and now we say, \"Hey, stay there.  Some people can build decent lives there, so you should stay there because that's enough reassurance for me!\"\n\nHow much Fox News have you been smoking?\nmeanpride: How can you ask for asylum when there are people in your home country living normally?

So, you are saying you have no problem with the people coming here and we should treat them with dignity and allow them to seek asylum.\n\nThat's not what you're saying though.  You're not being honest in this discussion.  I am done with you.\nmeanpride: So if these people cant even make a life for themselves in their own country, what makes you think they will propser in the US? By living of welfare? Yeah, make taxpayers babysit you for life.\nDollyPartonsFarts: That's why immigrants come here. To build better lives.\n\n​\n\nYou didn't just make an argument against asylum seekers: You blanket made an argument about any immigrant who comes here for a better life.  \n\nDo you even think about what you are saying? Or do you just say whatever makes you feel good? \n\nWho raised you?  Is she proud of the person you became?  I am doubtful.\nmeanpride: Lol. So the truth comes out finally: Its not to \"flee safety and escape prejudice\" but to build a better life. That would ultimately disqualify them from seeking asylum.  They can apply for immigration the same way like everyone else then.\nDollyPartonsFarts: Bullshit.  They're escaping countries where they don't have to ability to escape the dangers within those countries and coming here.\n\nJust because some people within those countries have the resources to make their lives there safer does not disqualify asylum seekers.\n\nYou are not an ethical person.  I am going to block you now so I don't have to see the garbage you write.\nmeanpride: Yes it does. You dont even know the basis for seeking asylum, yet you keep throwing it around.

However, saving our planet should be top priority for all people and it sucks that I may have to choose a party that wants to protect the planet and thus give up my 2nd amendment rights over a party that will protect my right to defend myself but destroy the planet in the process.\n\nIf the left really wanted to destroy the right all they have to do is defend the 2nd amendment as they do every other right we have and you would see the downfall of the GOP quickly there after. I do understand though that will never happen as the left is so against the 2nd amendment that it would turn their base against them.\n\nI don\u2019t want to hear about the bs claims you can\u2019t fight the government so owning a gun is pointless, not all of us gun owners want to take down the government. I don\u2019t own guns to fight some revolution, I own guns to protect my family should I ever need too and as a way to reduce stress by going to the range.\n\nHowever at the end of the day we should all be for protecting our planet as best we can, politics shouldn\u2019t even be part of this conversation. At the end of the day protecting the planet is about protecting the future for my children and I view it no different than own a gun. We all need to do what we can to protect our families and right now it is trying to reduce the effects of climate change.\nedk128: Well Trump banned bumpstocks said he wants to \"take the guns first, go through due process second,\" if they suspect someone may be violent, and also wants to raise the age you can legally purchase guns to 21.\n\nNot exactly pro 2nd amendment there.  People ignore it though. Just like they ignore the fact that GOP are not fiscally conservative (at least in modern history). \n\n\nAlso, I think you underestimate the power of the anti abortion position. Millions of people passionately view all abortion as murder. GOP can stick to this and be just fine.\nDgibs47: I wasn\u2019t talking about Trump, I know the left really thinks  everything revolves around Trump for the right. But for the party as a whole the right is far more pro 2nd amendment then the left, that doesn\u2019t mean everyone on the right supports the 2nd amendment just majority of them do and vice versa for the left not everyone is anti-2nd amendment just the majority.\n\nAlso not all of us are anti-abortion, even though we think it is murder. I think abortion is murder, but I also think a woman should have the right to decide if they want a child. Would I prefer women to have the child and put up for adoption over abortion, absolutely. However that is not for me to decide as I\u2019m not the one having the child.\n\nAlso, I\u2019m not religious so that could have a impact on my view of abortion. So while you may be correct that many on the right might stay there due to the lefts views on abortion, I still think peeling off the 2nd amendment crowd from the right would be enough to return the left to majority power in almost all levels of government.\n\nAlthough, I really wish we could just all agree saving the planet is too important to be divided over, doesn\u2019t matter what your views are on any other political or social issue, climate change we need to all be standing together world wide.\nedk128: People voted for Trump over established candidates who actually were actually conservative. So not much room to pretend Trump doesn't represent them. They had numerous other candidates towing the party line and they went with Trump for whatever reason, probably cuz he had some sick zingers. Definitely not because of his actual policies lol. \n\nMurder means the illegal killing of another human. If you don't think abortion should be treated as an illegal killing of another human, you don't think it's murder.\n\nWhat do you even mean when you say the majority of the left is anti 2nd amendment? Are you saying they want to remove the 2nd amendment? Its quite ambiguous language. I don't personally know anyone who has suggested removing the 2nd amendment. \n\nI assume since Trump has banned bump stocks, wants to raise the gun ownership age restriction to 21, suggested taking guns without due process, and has claimed global warming is fake and was invented by the Chinese you no longer support him?  Or do you ignore this as I said before? \n\nI mean, you did say the biggest reason you vote GOP is because they are pro gun... But they are totally silent on Trump in regards to his anti gun sentiment and laws. Hmm...\nDgibs47: Your correct, no one on the left actually states they want to remove the 2nd amendment, however the regulations they vote for and some of the ones on the books in blue states go far past common sense gun laws. I don\u2019t look at what the left says, I look at the laws they support, and in my view I trust the right far more than the left when it comes to the second amendment.\n\nAs for supporting Trump that depends on the situation,  I would have rather had any other republican as president. However, if it came down to Trump or Clinton like it did then I will choose the idiot Trump every time. I don\u2019t like Clinton and never will, had it been Trump against any other Democrat then I would have looked at their stance on gun control and the laws they supported.\n\nI also viewed Trump as an idiot that was too stupid to do any real damage to our country and so far that had been about right, we are no worse off then when Obama was in office and with a split Congress I don\u2019t see Trump doing much else regardless if he is out this election or we got him another 4 years. Any and everything he supports will be challenged in court, making it drag out and limiting the amount of changes to any laws, regulation, etc..\n\nAs for bumpstocks, they are not a 2nd amendment issue as it is just an accessory not an actual firearm and in my opinion is not protected under the 2nd amendment. I also am not against age limits on firearms, I would prefer it be 18 since we are willing as a nation to allow people to join our military and law-enforcement at that age, but I can accept 21 for regular citizens if it makes others feel safer. Only thing I don\u2019t agree with is taking anyone\u2019s guns without due process, that in my eyes is a violation of the 2nd amendment and hope our courts will rule that way soon.\nedk128: For sure. Clinton bad because reasons. Guns above all. Except bump stocks and raising the allowed age of ownership. Ignore that GOP is trying to criminalize abortions and ignores global warming issues. By the way Trump has gotten rid of many protections and regulations to reduce global warming impact. He's already caused plenty of damage.\n\nNice gymnastics though. Abortion rights and global warming are core issues for Dems. But because some locally elected Dems talked about banning some automatic rifles you vote GOP in perpetuity. Conveniently making excuses for age restrictions and bump stocks ban. Brilliant. GOP will never give a shit about global warming. Dems have been campaigning on it for two decades now.\nDgibs47: Can you please explain the damage Trump has caused as President? He didn\u2019t reverse our carbon footprint it is still on the decline, just as it was before him. He hasn\u2019t came through on one issue yet, only difference between now and when Obama was in office is the person as President. So while you want to hate Trump and blame him for every issue, the truth is he is exactly what I thought he would be an idiot that wouldn\u2019t really get much done while in office, and the better choice if it was to be him or Clinton. \n\nAnd for me yes 2nd amendment is my top concern then it is climate change, and then immigration, then fiscal responsibility, then it is the various social issues. That is how I rank what is important to me, yours are probably different and that is fine, everyone has one or two main concerns that tend to direct how they vote. For me it is the 2nd amendment, and then I care about climate change, which I wish was accepted by both parties and we all wanted to save our planet. However that isn\u2019t the case and next election will be harder on me if Republicans don\u2019t decide to stand up to Trump on climate change. \n\nIt\u2019s not mental gymnastics to understand that some regulation is acceptable on our rights, however when it gets to the point of ban that gun because it looks scary, or you need to show proof that you need a gun for self defense, or gun free zones then yeah things are getting out of hand. Banning accessories like bumpstocks, enforcing age restrictions, background checks, required licensing, and gun registration are all things I support as they don\u2019t infringe on the right to own a firearm. I don\u2019t complain that I can\u2019t yell fire in a movie theater and that it violates my first amendment.\nedk128: When did I blame Trump for every issue? The GOP obviously enables him, but he still has direct power over who he elects to the executive branches like the EPA and his board. He's also hired global warming denier, William Happer, to lead a secret White House climate panel. Happer has refered to co2 as a good molecule and said its mistreated much like Jews in the Holocaust.\n\nTrump just rolled back EPA regulations limiting carbon emissions. There are now no emission limits for states for energy production. The EPA estimates that this new regulation change will reduce national co2 emissions by 0.1% over a decade and reduce growth in natural gas and renewable energy production. They also estimated thousands of deaths annually due to the increased pollution. The previous estimate with Obama's regulation was 32% decrease from 2005 levels produced by the energy sector by 2030. If you care about global warming this is damage he's done. He has enabled coal to grow faster while damaging renewables. No surprise considering he put a bunch of coal execs and lobbyists in power of the EPA.\n\nWhy be okay with banning bump stocks? Just cuz they look scary?\nDgibs47: So what your saying is Trump has now left it up to the states to decide their emissions limits, just cause the Federal government doesn\u2019t limit something, doesn\u2019t mean the states can\u2019t enforce their own regulations, kind of like California is doing. So to say Trump has caused damage by doing this is not exactly true, cause states could enforce strict emission limits thus doing better than even Obama\u2019s regulations.\n\nTrump only has control over the enforcement of Federal Laws and changes to them doesn\u2019t automatically make every state also follow those changes, if that was the case Marijuana would still be illegal everywhere in the US.\n\nIf the American people truly want to reduce our carbon footprint then they will elect people to office in their states that will change the regulations locally. Giving Trump this much credit is ridiculous, he is an idiot that does nothing more than tweet stupid stuff and golf hardly the type of person with the mental capacity to get every state to lower their emissions limits and then convince the rest of the world to do the same.\n\nWe will continue to reduce our emissions and green energy will continue to grow. I believe this because I like to think Humans have at least some desire to survive and that when faced with threats that affect us all we are able to come together and do the right thing regardless of politics.\n\nNot sure your fixation on bump stocks, but one they don\u2019t look scary so pretty sure that has nothing to do with it. Two, I\u2019m guessing they are banned now because they allow a semi-automatic rifle to have a higher rate of fire than is intended. We banned rifles that fired at higher rates then semi-automatic or one round per trigger pull, so not a big stretch to also ban bump stocks even though they still fell within this guideline technically. Three, bump stocks are novelty items that most gun owners don\u2019t use thus making it an easy item to ban for political points.\n\nAppreciate the conversation, hope you have a great end to your week. Pretty sure this conversation has produced all it is going to, I\u2019m not changing my views and neither are you.\nedk128: if climate change is a major concern what do you think will help prevent it? Doing nothing? The states that profit the most from dirty energy production are the least likely to regulate that energy. \n\nTrump nomated the current EPA chief, a coal producer's lobbyist and climate change denier.

Trump bears so\ne responsibility for enabling this.\nDgibs47: People to start caring, it doesn\u2019t matter who is in office if we the people demand that the companies we do business with align with our values. Doesn\u2019t matter how much a company could pollute the environment if people refuse to do business with them they will either change or go out of business.\n\nI don\u2019t get why everyone wants the government to make a bunch of regulations when we have the power to create change if we could just stop fighting with each other over politics, sports, parking spaces, or what ever. Change doesn\u2019t come from electing this party or that party it comes when the citizens start using their power which is their buying power, as a capitalist society the people have a lot of power, but too many are just too comfortable to care.\n\nSo what do I think with actually help effect change, learning to respect each other regardless of our difference and start caring about the things that matter and not up votes, likes, shares, or views. Till that point, doesn\u2019t matter who is elected to what office, we won\u2019t change neither will companies, states, or countries. Individuals have to change first before we can hope to change the world.\n","num_messages":12,"avg_score":2523.9166666667,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0441,"11":0.0386,"12":0.0322,"13":0.0278,"14":0.0249,"15":0.0224,"2":0.3309,"3":0.2107,"4":0.1568,"5":0.1173,"6":0.0893,"7":0.072,"8":0.0614,"9":0.0521},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0548,"4":0.0156,"5":0.0056,"6":0.0024,"7":0.0008,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.2089050886,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.5247603834,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":461.3}

Not just patched up and forgotten but looked after for rest of their days.\n[deleted]: I assume quite a few went through the armor. Those plates are really only good for one round so the fact his armor stopped sixteen is pretty impressive.  Not as impressive as him surving the rest of course \nDROpher: Not true at all.

I don't want to speculate on the rating, because it was a very long time ago. I can say that I was a medic with infantry, and I've seen first hand the armor do its job and save lives. I've also seen rounds hit people in the shoulder and kill them (that little pesky artery that's about as thick as your thumb running under the collar bone and out to the arm), so I kind of have a pet peeve with Hollywood giving people the old shot-in-the-shoulder wound and act like its no big deal. Regardless, this SEAL is really fucking lucky to be alive. There was also a Marine, I think? Maybe was a soldier, who threw himself on a grenade and saved his entire squad from near certain death in similar circumstances (room clearing, bad guys were expecting). His armor took the brunt of the explosion and miraculously saved his life, but I wouldn't repeat that and expect the same results. He still was gravely wounded so it's not like he got up and brushed it off, but it kind of serves as an example of crazy shit that can happen and people somehow survive. \nDROpher: They have made leaps and bounds. I say military has better but the truth is I've also heard that a lot of military guys supply their own things sometimes. Preferred magazines\/accessories\/etc. It may very well be these plates are the same as military issue but I just figure we probably have something a bit better than civilian available plates. If it's really good, it isn't available to just everyone. For example certain military grade lasers etc.\n\n\n\nThanks for your service bud.\nIdrkc: I've heard the personal gear thing as well, especially in regards to special forces.

My goal was to be successful, and like successful people, I achieved it by doing what I had to do to reach my goal instead of setting arbitrary and juvenile limits.  \n\nNobody deserves anything other than what they make for themselves.

They say there is such an orphanage issue but they make it exceedingly expensive to adopt. If they have the money to care for the child and pass background checks\/interviews, why charge a fee from the state?\n-oopsie-poopsie-: It shouldn't be cheap and easy to adopt.  I mean, in ideal world it should be. The less parentless children the better, but in this world safeguards need to be put in place to assure less abuse of the system and children.  \n\nAdoption is a serious personal and financial commitment. Paying a big sum of money up front is proof you can manage both. \nPhapples: Seems like there is a much much better way to assure that adopters can support the kids though. I mean, it's not like they just wander into an orphanage and grab a child that very day, they could just do background checks to confirm they have enough to support the child without requiring them to fork out many months wages to lawyers just to do a good deed.\n-oopsie-poopsie-: They do that too. But paying a large sum of money is proof by action that you are willing to spend what is necessary to look after the child. Ultimately it is a small small fraction of the cost you will ultimately pay to raise a child. \n\nIt also slightly offsets what you might save by putting the child to work once you take it home.  Adoption isn't exactly like foster care. Eventually the caseworkers go away.  If you can adopt a domestic slave for free, at least one person is going to do it. there are bad people out there. \n\nI mean adoption fees suck. But I think ultimately they are there for legitimate reasons. \n\n\ncorey_m_snow: >  But paying a large sum of money is proof by action that you are willing to spend what is necessary to look after the child\n\nIt's a child. You're not making an earnest payment on a house bid. \n\nI don't buy the notion that excessive fees accomplish anything useful, unless one is specifically intent on making it impossible\/impractical for people without significant liquid assets to adopt, because a) any number chosen in the service of that goal is essentially arbitrary, b) it doesn't necessarily reflect the ability of someone's financial capacity to handle the burden of raising a child (not having significant liquid assets in today's economy is more the rule than the exception), and c) it takes away money that could be used to care for the child to no good purpose.\n\ntl;dr, the amount of money you can withdraw in cash from your bank account doesn't accurately reflect your financial status in today's economy.\n\n(And if this kid has been properly cared for by the potential adopters for years, it gives the lie to the idea  that requiring a big fee somehow ensures that the kid's gonna be well-cared for, because... it looks like he already is).\nUndercoverGovernor: It should be very difficult for people without liquid assets to adopt.  Too many selfish people want children for status but don't take responsibility for investing time and money in them.  This creates another generation of people who can't support themselves nor their children, and they also fail to pay their share into the system.  Every generation leaves fewer people to take care of the freeloaders, and until that trend changes, it is immoral for the poor to exacerbate the problem.  We shouldn't let professional victims imply that it is their right to have children for whom strangers must provide.\n\nWhy do you think adoption fees serve \"no good purpose\"?  Don't you think caring for children who have been failed by the selfish adults who brought them into the world is a good purpose?\nsammgus: > Every generation leaves fewer people to take care of the freeloaders, and until that trend changes, it is immoral for the poor to exacerbate the problem.\n\nWhen you learn a bit more about the world, you'll find out that the freeloaders are the ones with a lot of liquid assets, while teachers\/artists\/musicians have relatively little. Caring for a child takes time, not money.\nUndercoverGovernor: It takes money, too.  Teachers are paid.  Artists and musicians are paid based on the value others feel that they bring.  Some people take far less enjoyable jobs so they'll be able to provide for their own families and end up providing for families who don't earn enough to pay their own way because they want to sculpt.\nsammgus: > Some people take far less enjoyable jobs so they'll be able to provide for their own families and end up providing for families who don't earn enough to pay their own way because they want to sculpt.\n\nYou seem to suggest that those people are sacrificing. Yet very few of them would swap their jobs for that of a cleaner, let alone their paychecks. There are zillions of jobs that pay decently but do nothing for society - layers of middle management, marketing executives etc effectively operate in a zero-sum game yet somehow they are deemed more worthy of adopting than a teacher via this cost of entry. That just seems wrong.\nUndercoverGovernor: My comment was about **teachers\/artists\/musicians**, because I was responding to you.  You can't pretend you said something different and then say my response doesn't make sense.\n\n\"You seem to suggest that those people are sacrificing.\"  Of course they are sacrificing.  They are sacrificing the chance to take an easier or more enjoyable job in order to make more money.  Those who want to teach, make music or make art are also sacrificing.  Since those professions are enjoyable, people who get to do them have to sacrifice higher pay.  That **is** the sacrifice.  When musicians start families, they often have to sacrifice that enjoyable career for a less enjoyable one that pays more as a result.  What your saying is that these people should get to have enjoyable jobs and people with less enjoyable jobs should have to supplement their income.  Why?\n\nAnd once again, I'll ask:\n\nWhy should I have to refrain from having more children as a result of paying for other families to never have to make that sacrifice?\n\n\nsammgus: I'll say again: your premise is that job income is inversely proportional to the ease\/enjoyability of the job. That premise is just completely, blatantly false. The example of the cleaner just makes it incredibly obvious. Is the job of a teacher so easy and enjoyable that a CEO deserves to be paid 500x more? Of course not, that's a ludicrous suggestion. In your world the CEO is sacrificing a huge amount and supporting many families, but in reality the economy is just inequitable.\nUndercoverGovernor: It's not \"completely, blatantly false\" as it applies to all of the positions you mentioned before trying to change tac retroactively.  Before we get into a discussion about whether cleaning professionally is a more difficult job than any other one, will you just answer my question?\n\n**Why should I have to refrain from having more children as a result of paying for other families to never have to make that sacrifice?**\nsammgus: > Why should I have to refrain from having more children as a result of paying for other families to never have to make that sacrifice?\n\nObviously the answer is *you don't have to refrain, because you are not making a sacrifice*. You can pretend that you are making a sacrifice, but the reality is that some people get paid less while also doing shittier jobs and they do not deserve to be discriminated against because of that.\nUndercoverGovernor: Of course I am.  I won't have a child I can't afford.  I could have (and have had) shittier jobs in terms of pay.  I couldn't afford to raise a child.  Now I have a more difficult job that pays more but I still can't afford multiple children.\n\nThe difference is that you think it's fine to voluntarily burden someone else and I don't.  You think billionaires are the only people paying taxes and you willfully pretend that people like me aren't affected by greed of people like you because it protects a fragile justification for a political ideology that victimizes people you don't like.\nsammgus: I think you're forgetting that we're talking about people who don't have a child, and for whatever reason want\/need to adopt a child. And they may well have the funds to raise a child, but are not able to pay for the legal fees to adopt. Now if your argument is that if they can't pay for the legal fees then maybe they don't have the funds to raise a child, why doesn't everyone having a child by normal means have to pay a lump sum to show they can raise it?\n\nThere are doubtless people doing more difficult jobs than you and earning more. Now they're propping you up via paying more tax? Looks like you're the greedy one burdening them now. That's a terrible way to look at things.\nUndercoverGovernor: Of course there are people paying more than I am in taxes.  I think that's fair, but I don't think it's fair that they pay a higher *proportion* of taxes.\n\nThat's why I take the position that I won't have children I can't afford, but I would be able to afford more if I didn't have to supplement other families.\n\nAs far as the adoption fees, I just assumed they helped contribute to paying all of the costs associated with caring for children failed by their parents (or orphaned).  That's beside my point, which is that people who increase the burden on society by raising children they can't afford - especially given the fact that we know those children are more likely to remain poor until adulthood - is selfish and destructive to society.  It's not sustainable to ask a smaller and smaller portion of the population to pay higher and higher costs.\n\nI'm not in favor of ridiculously disproportionate CEO salaries (though disproportionate taxes justify them to a degree).  I would hope you're not in favor of people having children who are starving at home.  I'm not talking about hyperbolic extremes, though.  I'm talking about people who don't have enough income to pay income tax exacerbating their financial situation by having children and then requiring more assistance from strangers who would prefer to use that money to have their own children responsibly.\n\nIt's also insulting to the poor to act like there are just rich and poor people in the world.  I've been poor, and it would have been very easy to stay that way.  There are people who for whatever reason **can't** provide for themselves while paying taxes.  It's not half of the country, though.\nsammgus: The problem with your argument is that wealth is distributed inequitably. For example, financial firms playing fast and loose with credit arrangements and exchange rates make a huge amount of false money, which they spend on lots of services like advertising, accounting, legal fees. At some point, usually not too far in, people like you and I are beneficiaries of that imaginary wealth, which obviously lets us \"provide\" for our children. And now we get to sit and grumble about having to support the people further away from the made-up cash. In this economy, there is often a big difference between one's worth to society, and one's usefulness to the people that literally print money.\nUndercoverGovernor: The problem with your argument is that regardless of how much you assume my work is worth to society, you are comfortable with me making a sacrifice in the number of children I have and you feel it would not be fair for others to make the same sacrifice.  The kicker is that the people who you have chosen as procreaters leave a smaller and smaller percentage of people to pay their tabs.  Then you blame the expanded poverty on the \"system\" because it helps obfuscate an obvious cause and effect that you would prefer to deny.\nsammgus: You have not sacrificed anything for someone that has no kids and wants to adopt one.. Not a council tenant with eight kids. God, you must *hate* disabled people. \nUndercoverGovernor: I don't hate disabled people, and that's obviously offensive.  Every discussion about problems with half of the country paying taxes devolves into the stupid hyperbole that implies half the country is disabled and has no options for gainful employment.  Your solution to a taxpaying person saying he can't afford to have a family the size of families which don't pay taxes is...That CEOs make too much money, that I hate disabled people, that money isn't distributed evenly, that limiting my family to a size for which I can afford to provide isn't a sacrifice?  These aren't reasons this predicament is fair, these are justifications for why it's okay to be unfair to me.  I'm not a CEO, though, and I didn't create the idea that people's production be converted to money from bartering.  \n\nWhen we get to the point where you say I hate disabled people (why not just saying I'm racist or that I promote rape culture??), it's clear that you're interested in preserving the beneficiaries of your manipulative paradigm rather than progressing toward a better society.\n","num_messages":22,"avg_score":258.0,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0414,"11":0.0366,"12":0.0332,"13":0.0311,"14":0.03,"15":0.0288,"2":0.3273,"3":0.2127,"4":0.1719,"5":0.127,"6":0.093,"7":0.0747,"8":0.0613,"9":0.0495},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0758,"3":0.1762,"4":0.1248,"5":0.1086,"6":0.0994,"7":0.092,"8":0.0854,"9":0.0806},"special_characters_ratio":0.2077254517,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.5206321335,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":325.9}

Yes, yes I am.\nBelinxi: Calling out cunts and calling them as such does not make one a misogynist. From what I have seen he has revealed cunts without bias for their gender. He has also equally as much called people dicks, so I see no bias.\nMowgli3: Well, I can see you're certainly not sexist at all. Not at all.\nBelinxi: So saying 'cunts' is sexist? Interesting!

TIL.\nMowgli3: *psssssst! internalized misogyny is a thing that exists!*\n\nbut in any case, I'm glad you're learning!\nBelinxi: So uh, why exactly should I be offended by a word? Especially a word that refers to a part of my anatomy? Are you saying I should be ashamed of my anatomy? Would that not be the sexist thing here?\n\nI know words can be used offensively, but in this case, that was not the case, it was used for the purpose of humour and derision of utter scumbags.\nMowgli3: No, & it's pretty clear you have no idea what the objection is. [Perhaps you should read up on it before presenting an opinion]( http:\/\/www.shakesville.com\/2007\/11\/on-bitch-and-other-misogynist-language.html?m=1). (That article isn't the end-all be-all, I just grabbed it because it's decent & hits the main points.) \n\nAnyway, if you google, you'll see other examples of Penn being a jerk. My point still stands.\nBelinxi: Okay, after looking for other articles, you actually have a point about Penn, he has certainly gone way over the line on some occasions and does not seem like such a great guy. Honestly after being linked to buzzfeed I had originally given up hope on finding anything credible, but what do you know.\n\nContext matters however and when used in a gender neutral way I really don't see an issue with any words being used for humours sake in the context of a TV show you can chose to watch or not.\nMowgli3: But it's not used in a gender neutral way ever. It's not a gender neutral word. It's an insult meant to deride genitals that are associated with women. We like to say that certai. words are gender neutral, but that's not how our brains process them. Language matters & it affects our thoughts, actions, & feelings. I don't think it's over the top to say, \"hey, this word that is a slang for female genitals? don't use it as an insult.\"\n\nI'm not sure where you live but \"cunt\" is definitely not allowed on tv here (they can't even show boobs on tv because zomg human anatomy!!). But for words that are allowable but still objectionable...yeah, I mean I can just change the channel. But to me, that's just passing the buck. I want to end gender-based oppression, & an insidious way we perpetuate it is by using language like this. Everyone has implicit sexist biases, & using gendered terms as insults keeps those biases strong. I want to get people to think about those biases & work to change them so we can have a more equal society. :)\n\n(I'm sorry if this sounds weird...a migraine just hit & so words are hard for me right now.)\nBelinxi: Okay I can see your point and I think this is a cultural issue more than anything.\n\nWhere I live (Australia) it *IS* acceptable to use the word \"cunt\" on TV (After a certain time of course). It is also acceptable to use the word \"dick\", and I think it's important that either both or neither are used. The words themselves may not be neutral, but using them both and not targeting a specific gender with them, to me, makes the overall context much more so. To say otherwise, to me, would be to limit the speakers ability to decide what they mean.\n\nDepending on context, here, sometimes \"cunt\" is even a positive, friendly term, similar to 'friend'. So yeah, I can see the objection from the context of only ever seeing the word used in a negative manner, but again, context matters.\n\nEdit: Hope your migraine gets better quickly.\n","num_messages":16,"avg_score":42.25,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0375,"11":0.034,"12":0.0316,"13":0.0312,"14":0.0307,"15":0.0285,"2":0.2958,"3":0.1688,"4":0.1189,"5":0.0913,"6":0.0716,"7":0.0594,"8":0.0493,"9":0.0419},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0533,"4":0.0273,"5":0.0199,"6":0.0125,"7":0.0075,"8":0.005,"9":0.0025},"special_characters_ratio":0.2344057781,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.5173267327,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":440.5}

My gf works at a school with multiple unvaccinated kids. They're children of engineers. You would think they're intelligent people. I'm against state mandated vaccinations, but I also believe businesses have the right to turn away your family. What's crazy is there's a huge amount of heroin and fucking used needles around. Lots of homeless. I imagine, and I could be wrong, that these types aren't really helping the herd immunity. This state is so fucking weird. Maybe it's just the Seattle area, but fuck they're nuts about a lot of issues.\nMEANINGLESS_NUMBERS: >\tI'm against state mandated vaccinations\n\nCurious as to why. The state requires that you do many things for your children: feed them, clothe them, educate them, seek treatment for their illnesses. Why do you draw the line at *this* life-saving intervention but not others?\njpastore: I'm libertarian and against many state mandated things. I also spent some time in Peru and learned of their former president Fugimori, who is in prison, maybe dead now from cancer if the tongue. One of his many crimes was providing vaccines to indigenous people, but they weren't vaccines. He was sterilizing them to make it easier to steal their land for the resources underneath. US govt has a history of doing fucked up shit, like infecting 40k blacks with syphilis, putting radioactive material in food, and more. Govt doesn't mean good people who are benevolent. In fact we see fucked up people in office and regularly have to choose between the lessor of 2 evils, usually just different flavors of the same evil.\nMEANINGLESS_NUMBERS: >\tI'm not antivaxx but I believe they may be part of a government plot to sterilize people.\n\nYeah, that's antivaxx. Just own it, man.\njpastore: You put words in my mouth, dude is in jail for a crime you can look up. It should be a decision, not a mandate controlled by fucked up people. You're an assuming asshole, you should own it man.\nJemimas_witness: What do you think as a libertarian about not vaccinating as infringement on the civil liberties of others? Given that by not vaccinating you increase the risk of communicable diseases by reduction of herd immunity\njpastore: If you're vaccinated what's your risk? I'm vaccinated, my kid is vaccinated. I don't think I should force someone to be. I also think school or businesses can make the choice to reject those people for that exact reason.\nJemimas_witness: Well you don\u2019t pop out of mom vaccinated for one. A newborn can absolutely get measles etc. additionally kids with immune dysfunction (transplant, cancer, immune deficiency syndromes) may not be able to get vaccines on schedule or at all. Furthermore, vaccines aren\u2019t permanent. If you went and got your vaccine Titers Drawn you may not have immunity (not everyone retains immunity, that\u2019s why it\u2019s important everyone is vaccinated, because you may be at risk still)\n\nI understand your argument about personal choice, consistent with libertarian thought. However, one tenet of libertarianism is that your freedom cannot impinge on others freedom, and that\u2019s what I argue not vaccinating does by unnecessarily endangering others.\n\nConsider drinking and driving. DD is a choice that unnecessarily endangers others, and I think any reasonable libertarian is against DD. I say not vaccinating is similar, just the consequences aren\u2019t as apparent\njpastore: DD is not the same thing. I'm not saying vaccines are bad, some have problems. They have has been misused. Free market options and consent shouldn't be destroyed out of fear.\nJemimas_witness: Are they both not choices with possible negative outcomes inflicted on others? \n\nYes, vaccines have been used for political gain, sadly. Still, they are the crowning achievement of medicine, maybe second to antibiotics.\n\nI\u2019m arguing the infringement of others freedoms overrides free market options, not fear.\njpastore: It's not for free market concerns. I was saying the free market is s better option to solve the problem. My concern is justifying violating someone's rights for the supposed rights of others, because that creates a very slippery slope. A person's rights shouldn't be violated but they should suffer the consequences of their actions. Everyone else has the option to request proof of vaccination, and refuse interaction.\nJemimas_witness: I would say Nobody has the option because these diseases are surreptitious. Just Going to Disneyland can and has resulted in spread of these infections. \n\nI would also argue that we\u2019ve already codified this. The preamble of the constitution specifically mentions general welfare of the people. Also: \n\n\u201c In 1905 the Supreme Court addressed mandatory vaccinations in regard to smallpox in Jacobson v Massachusetts [2]. There the Court ruled that the police power of a state absolutely included reasonable regulations established by legislature to protect public health and safety [2]. Such regulations do not violate the 14th Amendment right to liberty because they fall within the many restraints to which every person is necessarily subjected for the common good [3]. Real liberty for all cannot exist if each individual is allowed to act without regard to the injury that his or her actions might cause others; liberty is constrained by law. The Court went on to determine in Jacobson that a state may require vaccination if the board of health deems it necessary for public health or safety\n\n https:\/\/journalofethics.ama-assn.org\/article\/mandatory-vaccination-legal-time-epidemic\/2006-04\n\nReal liberty cannot exist if individuals can act without regard for others.\njpastore: But Disney has the option to refuse service to those not vaccinated.\nJemimas_witness: This is not strictly true. Anti discrimination laws prohibit requiring vaccinations if there is a religious or medical exemption - and in some states philosophy is acceptable too. It\u2019s a murky part of the law. \n\nI\u2019d argue Disney, as a media corporation, does not have the right to make that decision and it falls to the department of health. I fundamentally don\u2019t agree with this aspect of libertarianism that the individual corporation or person should be able to decide as quite honesty I think public health decisions are above the level of the individual person. I recognize that is probably not what you believe though. I think the individuals autonomy ends at themselves and their minor children\njpastore: Every business or organization has the right to refuse anyone service. I do not agree with religious organizations. Their beliefs are not my problem. They shouldn't be tax exempt. Their beliefs in their shared imaginary friend is not reason to be exempt from the laws.\nJemimas_witness: Is that strictly true? We had the whole gay wedding cake debacle go down with lots of backlash\njpastore: I agree and think that's wrong. A business a right to refuse anyone for any reason IMO. The beauty of the free market is that some can create the gay bakery to service that market. My father always the worst thing you can do to someone is not do business with them.

Not only would it save money printing a single piece of paper rather than manufacturing a toy but it would be easier to change (changing kids puzzles is easier than coming up with a new toy idea) but it would also encourage children to use their brain which as a mom of 2 I'd rather have the puzzles than the toy.

They said freedom of speech doesn\u2019t mean anything if you can\u2019t realize what you\u2019re speaking about. So it wasn\u2019t only freedom of speech, it was freedom to be heard. If you can agitate for revolution and most of the working class wants a greater stake in our society but it never actually happens because the powers that be repress it, then that freedom of speech doesn\u2019t matter.\u00a0That is a view of \"freedom of speech\" worth protecting and promoting.\n\n\n\nMeanwhile today everything that happened up until Heather Heyer being killed(woman run over by a white nationalist in Charlottesville) was legal as free expression.

Them organizing was legal, you know, being on forums and in-person groups and all of that was legal. So it was only really the murder which was not legal. And seeing how free speech helped those Nazis, helped those white supremacists do all that and seeing the kind of almost reflexive defense that the mainstream media had, even supposed liberals saying, \u2018oh, you know, Charlottesville was terrible, but to do anything about it would be even more terrible.\u2019 Is absolutly insane to permit and is absolutely not \"freedom of speech\" worth protecting or tolerating.\namleeslypig: So where is the line, do you think? That\u2019s the tricky part.\nbertiebees: Don't promote right wing racism and xenophobia has \"protected speech\". It isn't. \n\nIt's important to talk about that distinction between government suppression of speech and the cultural suppression of speech or whatever you want to call it. And that in the 1970s the Koch brothers, the family of Betsy DeVos and a few other billionaires and millionaires purposefully tried to erase that distinction. They funded books, they funded over 300 centers at universities, they funded student groups that all pushed for this idea that freedom and freedom of speech were connected to freedom of the marketplace, were connected to the freedom of conservative ideas to be spoken without backlash. And that kind of directly led to the PC crisis \u2014 supposed PC crisis \u2014 in the early nineties where you have Dinesh D\u2019Souza saying that college students were fascist because they yelled at conservatives and you can kind of see that continuing today. So I think there\u2019s a lot of confusion over free speech and what is a violation and isn\u2019t a violation of free speech because of that purposeful campaign that started many years ago.\n","num_messages":11,"avg_score":4.8181818182,"character_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0586,"11":0.0527,"12":0.0476,"13":0.0443,"14":0.0412,"15":0.0387,"2":0.3006,"3":0.1968,"4":0.1522,"5":0.1121,"6":0.0889,"7":0.0772,"8":0.0718,"9":0.0654},"word_repetition_ratio":{"10":0.0,"3":0.0312,"4":0.0094,"5":0.0031,"6":0.0,"7":0.0,"8":0.0,"9":0.0},"special_characters_ratio":0.1984693878,"lang_id_score":1.0,"stopwords_ratio":0.498447205,"flagged_words_ratio":0.0,"perplexity_score":458.0}
