English fuckton, not metric

Shit happens. Condoms break and birth control fails. Let people make their own decisions instead of imposing your beliefs on them just to feel morally superior

Or, maybe, don't impose your beliefs on women and let them make their own decisions with their body

Neville Chamberlain would be proud

Iaeanl, xle! hehe

Give them a break, maybe they're just sims

Have you paid your yearly donut tax?

Physics, yo

From a quick search, it is used to control the flow of refrigerant based on its temperature. The tube deforms based on how hot or cold the refrigerant is, and there are contacts on the tube to switches that permit or resrrict coolant flow

In other words, it's a simple thermostat

I feel like we're going to see an increase in this hate-filled, scapegoating rhetoric that the Republican party won votes with. All we can do now though is try to fight this kind of stuff here in Canada and try to avoid becoming the atates

Fucking over the usa to own the libs

Theoretically, yes he can. Under US law (if the justice system was working correctly at all), no individual is above the law.

However, it is very unlikely. Trump is stupidly popular amongst people willing to overturn the establishment to let him do whatever he wants. Not to mention that he has a favourable supreme court that can just choose not to prosecute him.

This just sounds like that thing everyone does where they say they're better than both the last and next generation.

Honestly, if someone is uninformed and not willing to think critically, they are just as manipulable as everyone else regardless of their age. Blame people being misinformed/lazy, not the next generation

As someone born in 2006, is there really any more to life than this?

My university would give you an automatic F for plagiarism/cheating that would effectively set you back 2 years.

It is good this kid got caught when he did, because all he gets out of it now is one bad grade and a lesson to not use LLMs in the future (hopefully, the parents don't seem to be the best in this regard)

Perhaps it is also that LLMs are horrible at making any kind of argument and probably wrote a shit paper, never mind the plagiarism? Frankly a 65 is a high mark for doing something like this

Did you even read my comment? I was saying that you said nothing about that second point in your original comment and that's why people are going after you. Asking if pointing out people misgendering by accident is necessary is one question. Stating that pronouns don't matter in an agressive matter is another

I guess you could argue whether it was important to bring it up here, but you didn't say that in your original comment. Your original comment was extending the idea that gender doesn't matter to assert that proper pronouns aren't needed in discussions. These are two separate (although sort of joined) ideas

"Gender doesn't matter" means that people should be able to do whatever regardless of their gender. They shouldn't face discrimination if they're male, female, trans, etc. It does not mean gender is not important in conversation as it certainly is to show that you respect someone. People won't get mad if you use "they" to refer to them (or, if they do, they're just an ass) but many people do get mad if you assume "he" or "she" because they'll take it as a sign that you disrespect them or think they're lesser because of their gender.

Also, the tone of your first comments makes you sound like, for lack of a better word, an asshole. Don't be surprised when people down vote when you go after someone like that

Or use gender neutral pronouns when gender is ambiguous. English has them
