I've never understood how people can be both religious and against science. For me, my faith is the biggest reason that I want to learn more about the world, because understanding someone's creation is a great way to learn about the creator.

Not all laws. There are plenty of laws that are a good thing, even in a bad regime. Laws like vehicle wof standards, or anti perjury laws seem universally good.

Mate. I'm a ginger living in New Zealand. Sunburn is an inevitability.

Or the one time you happen to be able to watch it, it's an episode like "the great divide"

I have an office job, but I work with a lot of tradies.

A ute with no mud on it. Either it's brand new, or they have no idea what the point of a ute is, so they bought an overpriced car which is worse for them than an average station wagon

Preferably enough to make me forget about the existence of this abomination

 

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?
