Many ways to cast at flash speed, or use something like universal solvent

Usually only if there's something good as part of the credits (eg. Portal 1 & 2)

And it can still be destroyed with only 7 mana

It's probably different for everyone. My dad retired a few years ago, but he has far from stopped working. He does a lot of work for the church (he's an elder), and he does a lot if work on the farm they live on.

Well it's your loss if you don't get it

That would be because of the caffeine

Or by that point they will have created a self scaling system

I'm just saying I wouldn't mind hearing what Jeffery epstien would say over the clean air act

Not what I'm saying. My point is that one flaw, even one as terrible as pedophilia, doesn't influence all of a person's opinions. Sure, I wouldn't ask Gandhi for his views on healthy relationships, and having learned about this I have lost pretty much all respect for him as a person. But his opinions on international politics should be reasonable because of his role as a leader of a protest movement, and likely aren't impacted by him being a pedo.

With your Epstien example, is there reason to think his opinions on climate science are more well informed than the average person's? Do you think his role of running his pedo island would impact his views on topics like the clean air act?

The trouble with your line of thinking is that we'd run out of acceptable people's opinions really quickly. No one is perfect, and it will usually be possible to frame someone's flaws in a way that makes them a horrible person in all aspects and never worth hearing out. When it gets to "Bob is a racist, Jim is a pedo, Fred is a domestic abuser" (to be clear, in not saying these are equally bad or anything, just some examples of 'this person is inherently bad because of one thing') and so on about everyone, who's left to be worth discussing things with?

the dude was a pedo

How is that related to his opinions on international politics? Just because someone is terrible in one aspect of their life, doesn't mean the rest of their ideas have to be thrown out.

Well it's clearly not bullshit. They're pigs

They're like an underwater unicorn

 

My general assumption for the lowest I can expect a person to behave is basically always looking for their own absolute gain, and any attitude towards other people comes secondary to that. So while a person living by this standard wouldn't donate to charity without some other motive, they would have basically the same answer to something like the trolley problem as anyone else.

Am I wrong thinking of this as a "minimum reasonable behavior", or is there something people actually gain from the suffering of other people?

This question was born out of seeing how people are being treated by the US government at the moment, but I'm asking about more than just that. People like abusive partners/family, hostile cops, or just bullies in general.

 

What does someone have to do that means no amount of remorse or effort to fix things will get you to forgive them? I don't mean forgive and forget to the point where they can hurt you again. If someone repeatedly steals from you, forgiveness doesn't mean putting them in a position where they can steal again.

I'm asking this purely out of curiosity. I'm just wondering what the attitude in my corner of the internet is.

 

There's a mod I want to make, but I've never made a mod for any game before. What resources are there for starting out?

I know programming well enough so that's not a barrier, this is more about mod structure and testing

 
 

The most versatile of foods, creating chips, hash browns, and vodka, among other things. Which option is the best one?

IMO some good hot chips (fries for you incorrect Americans)

 

What movie do you want made? If you got a pitch meeting with a producer and a guaranteed green light, what would you say?
