@StefanMolyneux Using the term "creation" to refer to the universe sneaks in assumptions You need a creator for a creation We do not know the universe was created, it could have always been The causality chain could be a loop (These statements does not approve or deny the existence of God)

The builder and the painter were both created by prior causes. What is the prior cause for a god?

@HansFiene Quick search of the AAA: 30% of collisions are in parking lots. Of those an estimated 91% are due to backing out. Sure it's easier to drive in and back out. Being a civilized person means putting personal comfort aside for the greater good. Safety first!

It’s much easier to back out of a spot than into one. I don’t understand you people.

@GAvocado22 @ReviewsPossum We redefined how long a meter is to land on a perfect integer.

@ReviewsPossum Is it 299,792,458 m/s exactly? As in a whole integer? Or are we rounding cause it ends in 0.741 or something?

Scientists don't currently have an answer for why the speed of light (c) is what it is. We know that it's 299,792,458 m/s (and we even redefined the meter to be exactly 1/299,792,458 of the distance light travels in a second just to keep it precise), but we don't know why it goes that specific speed from first principles, or what combination of factors make it so. One guess (if you apply the anthropic principle) is that there exist multiple (possibly infinite) universes, each with a different set of physical constants, and the reason c in our universe is what it is is because that's the speed at which it's possible for physical matter to exist. We observe it as what it is because if it were different, we wouldn't be able to observe it because we wouldn't exist. But that's a conjecture. No one actually knows. By the way, the speed of light is more accurately thought of as the speed of causality.

@obama6ix9ine @Nearly30Podcast @whizkidslab @DavidWolfe "Deep Throat" was the code name of the FBI (or maybe CIA) director who was involved in the Watergate scandal involving president Nixon.

@Nearly30Podcast @whizkidslab @DavidWolfe Deep throating a conspiracy now 🤔🤔🤔

Tell me a crazy conspiracy theory. I don’t mean 9/11 or chem trails. I mean something absolutely unhinged that’ll send you down a rabbit hole for weeks

@g_lamarche @bruce_barrett @grok You seem to be conflating education with skills. Some people go to school for decades and come out with no useful skills, others can skip formal education and provide immense value.

@ELEMECTec @bruce_barrett @grok "less incentive to grow beyond skill-less jobs." do you mean all the people with stem degrees that are now uneployed?

Hey @grok, how can there be record youth unemployment in Canada and also a labour shortage?

@g_lamarche @bruce_barrett @grok Yes, and we are ALL better off because of it. World-wide starvation rates have dropped 95% in the same timeframe. The richest now have more than the richest of the 1920s, but the poorest now are richer than the poorest of the 1920's too!

@ELEMECTec @bruce_barrett @grok Income inequality in the U.S. has returned to levels not seen since the late 1920s, with the top 0.1% holding wealth shares close to the 25% recorded just before the 1929 Great Depression.

@g_lamarche @bruce_barrett @grok Five decades ago 60% of the world lived in poverty, today it is under 10%. The "top CEO's" have done far more for the minimum wage earners than the other way around. THANK YOU CAPITALISM!

@ELEMECTec @bruce_barrett @grok If minimum wage in Canada had kept pace with the explosive growth of top CEO compensation over the last five decades, it would be roughly $100 per hour as of late 2024. [1]

@g_lamarche @bruce_barrett @grok So the solution would be to not expect to be able to live by yourself unless you have the skills to pay the bills! You know, like how it has been for 99.9% of history.

@ELEMECTec @bruce_barrett @grok A report found that for a one-bedroom, only about eight out of 62 Canadian cities analyzed were affordable on full-time minimum wage.

@g_lamarche @bruce_barrett @grok Halifax, Nova Scotia. What is your point? If the point was that minimum wage is too low, than you further prove my point. If adults were to gain skills and move up, they would be better off AND youth employment would improve. ABOLISH MINIMUM WAGE!

@ELEMECTec @bruce_barrett @grok Name one region where a minimum wage earner could afford even a tiny apartment to live in?

@Galahadios @7saah9 This is Canada. PEI or Newfoundland

@AlexBarnicoat_ The Straight of Hormuz is the only way to sail from the Persian gulf to the rest of the world. Closing the English would only force traffic to sail around the UK. Close Hormuz - oil stops flowing, ships pay millions. Close the EC - minor inconvenience, UK crys.

If Iran can charge $2 MILLION per ship to sail through the Straight of Hormuz, Why can't we charge ships to sail through the English Channel? It's the world's busiest shipping lane, we'd make trillions of pounds. What do you think?

@bob_fedderly @buperac "There were no bureaucrats. They were all in PetroCan's offices." Bureaucrat: an official, often unelected, who works within a large administrative system. (Office workers ARE bureaucrats)

@buperac There were no bureaucrats. They were all in PetroCan's offices. Same as any other producer. decisions mostly made in Calgary. Downturns = cuts at any company.

Retards are Canada's biggest asset. Petro-Canada was fucked, they couldn't compete as a nationalized oil company, it was filled with bureaucrats sucking off the tax payer as usual. They cut 6,000 people because they never actually needed those people for anything at all, it was bloat. They saved $300 million from this, it did not affect the efficiency of the company at all, but made it less Fake And Gay.

Hydraulic Press! Hey @grok explain this process in very easy way !
