Yep it belong here, not in the real world.

Had a zombie apocalypse nightmare last night for i think the second time this year, wake up scared even though i recognize it’s a dream inside the dream. I know i shouldn’t play Project Zomboid if dream like this keep coming back, but ehh what the heck, game’s good.

Only scammer use that function.

Phoenix Wright seems like a good fit. A superb lawyer that went to countless court and win, debate is part of his job and Trump would be continually shut off.

Maybe not real for you, but from my perspective it’s believable. I myself are a blue collar working 6 days a week and with paid of the lower income group, still get the time to date someone for two years few years back. Sure, it doesn’t worked out, but it happened. I can see the same with other blue collar i know.

Also, i feels like the problem here is you focus on how they looks rather than focused on who they are. Rocky is a debt collector that’s friend with Paulie, and Adrian work as a store keeper for a pet shop. Not sure how’s that “idealised” working class.

Idk, the romance in Rocky is believable. Not a romcom, i know, but it’s romance. The creative bankrupt is really the issue with writers these day.

Ohh? Do explain about the broken english part, english is my second language, and i couldn’t see anything broken about OOP’s english.

Handheld sewing machine. Not sure if all are like this or just the cheapo one i bought, it can’t sew anything thick else it will get stuck often and can’t make the loop. End up shelving it and never use it since then.

That’s definitely from Naruto

talk to people who love you it really help because we will miss you

This is the hard part me think. As a guy that also suicidal like two years ago and slowly walk myself out of it over the year, it’s hard to identify who will care and who will love, i always feels like most people around me care only because i’m about to do something irreversible, not care about me deeply. It’s that cynicism that i feels drive a lot of people to suicide because they just don’t know who will care.

It wasn’t even the pirate that’s get attacked, it’s an indirect attack on Webhard, a cloud storage system provider that utilise BitTorrent. The ISP attack Webhard users by injecting malware to both disable Webhard software and mess up the user’s file, some even had their PC disabled probably due to messed up C drive. Some individuals is being charged but to think ISP will use such tactic just because their paying customer used up the bandwidth they provided, the only sensible choice is like you said, drop the damn thing if possible.

Best i can do is

Thanks, monday ruined.

No, Islamic COUNTRIES did. They didn’t achieve excellence in science because Islam benefitted science.

No one claiming it is.

They achieved excellence in science compared to Christian countries in large part because their religious authority figures didn’t stand in the way anywhere near as much, not because religion helped.

Not sure how much difference is by changing “Islam” to “Islamic countries”, because the fact still remain that Muslim make scientific discovery and excel in mathematics despite being religious. Again, no one claiming Islam benefitted science.

Not true. They are polar opposites.

You just contradicted your last point. Also science are not religion, how can an apple be polar opposite to orange? One can believe in santa clause and ghost while excel in science. It’s not mutually exclusive.

That’s why scientists are disproportionately atheist and agnostic: the evidence based mode of thinking employed in science doesn’t mix with the superstitious and unquestioningly convinced thinking of religion without some SERIOUS cognitive dissonance.

Science are a broad subject, unless they purposely went and look for god, which they wouldn’t find, there’s like a huge load of subject that doesn’t have anything to do with god. Also your impression of religion is like, wrong lol. There’s more to religion than just praising god.

No. That’s not being human, that’s being brainwashed and/or obedient to authority.

See? Human ARE irrational.

You need statistic to proof socialising more is better than socialising less?

Yes, i do agree on all the thing you said, what i’m saying is it’s not mutually exclusive. Religious people can and will go to religious meetup and all the other non-religious gathering too. I know that because i have some friend that do both. It’s not the case of black and white, this or that, do and don’t.

The issue i have with OP’s question and a lot of atheist is they tend to put religious people as a one dimension entity and think highly of themselves because they “aren’t like that”, that irrationality is what they accuse religious people have. It’s that sort of tribalism that cause a lot of conflict, and i fear tribalism more than i fear religion.

I too don’t like my community centered around religion, but everywhere i look, religion tend to be the biggest community gathering around the world.

What based on what evidence?

Education fails to instil scientific temper in them

Islam used to be the forefront of scientific and mathematical discovery. Believing in god have nothing to do with science or math, it’s superstition, something that cannot be proven or unproven, it’s that irrational thought that make us human.
