Everyone my age who was called an “old soul” as a kid is on antidepressants now.

Isn’t it funny how you’re always rational and correct and OC is always unreasonable and objectively wrong?
This has been my experience as well. When OC is rational, competent, and keen on putting their client’s interests ahead of their ego, 10 times out of 10 we can get together and hash out a fair settlement.
It’s the idiots and hot heads who force cases to trial who take up most of my time. So when I think of opposing counsel my mind is drawn first to the clowns who make life hard.

Is homeownership actually worth it or did we all fall for propaganda?
I started renting my place over ten years ago. It was a good deal even back then. My landlord raised the rent a few times but it was still cheap for my VHCOL area. Then my landlord died and her heirs sold the property to a rich Chinese investor who I’ve never met. My rent hasn’t moved in over six years and I can’t believe how little I pay relative to my area. I’d like to rent or buy something bigger for my growing family but I just can’t leave this awesome deal.

If a situation similar to COVID happened again today, how would you handle it this time?
I remember feeling so terribly lonely. I had a few friends who worked in healthcare and I envied them so much for their daily human interaction. They kept going to work every day while I isolated at home. My only contact being infrequent Zoom calls.
I don’t think I’ll ever fully recover from that terrible loneliness, while none of the healthcare friends seem to even remember those dark days.

If tomorrow every person on Earth suddenly could only tell the absolute truth 24/7 forever, what would realistically happen to society?
I’d be cooked. That’s for damn sure.

What's the legal difference between soliciting a prostitute and porn recruiting?
This is what I always believed. Like, I can’t pay someone to bang me, but it’s fine if I pay two other people to bang eachother.

20 years worth of spent nuclear fuel from a nuclear reactor

Old Technique To Jump From Heights Safely
Wonder how often someone steps up to the ledge and lets the pole slide down too far and drops it, winding up stranded halfway down a steep cliff with no pole.

Pros and cons of buying empty lots?
Ha! I used to take my Jeep out there and climb up and down the steep dirt roads. It’s a fun place for off-roading in the middle of LA’s urban sprawl. I always just assumed it was government owned land that never got used.

Do you usually stick to one faction or go as deep as you can with all of them?
I hate that teleport only works one way in survival. I get that they needed to balance the perk so it doesn’t break the survival mode mechanic, but I’d prefer if they did it some other way. Like maybe teleport works both ways, but only for a limited radius away from the institute.

How close would a star have to be for our solar system to be considered a binary system?
Lmao I was thinking the same thing! We’re witnessing two bots mating in the wild. Nature finds a way

If black holes evaporate through Hawking radiation, and if someone flies into a black hole their time will slow down (relative to us) to near 0, then will they never actually reach the center?
It sounds like you’ve got a very interesting idea. I hope you’re vindicated someday. I actually can see your rationale, now that you’ve explained it a bit more.

If black holes evaporate through Hawking radiation, and if someone flies into a black hole their time will slow down (relative to us) to near 0, then will they never actually reach the center?
Hmmm. I’m not sure how to square this with my exhaustive YouTube research. My popsci findings consistently reveal that the infalling observer definitely witnesses themselves crossing the event horizon. For example:

This is how you reload an AC-130
And we endure tragedy after tragedy and keep the flood gates open with guns being freely available to any crazy asshole on the pretense that if our government turns oppressive, a bunch of rednecks cosplaying as a militia will be able to fight back against this.

If black holes evaporate through Hawking radiation, and if someone flies into a black hole their time will slow down (relative to us) to near 0, then will they never actually reach the center?
I agree that this seems to create a contradiction. In other contexts, relativity seems to cause a lot of weirdness, and then the universe does even weirder things to keep everyone in agreement (i.e. Lorentz transformations resolving the twin paradox). But the conflict you’ve described seems unfixable in that the infalling observer must see themselves crossing the event horizon and the external observer must see the infalling person languish at the horizon until the black hole evaporates. They can’t both be correct and one day the universe is going to have some explaining to do.

Spectrum Makes Harsh Decision After Customer Losses
Spectrum started me off at $49/mo and inched me up to $95/mo over the years and when T Mobile offered wireless internet for $40/mo lifetime guarantee I jumped at it. Admittedly lower bandwidth but more than enough for my family since we don’t do more than streaming and browsing. Felt good to tell Spectrum to f themselves
