I can not believe you are talking about taking drugs on a open public forum. People (wuffos) already think we are crazy to jump out of perfectly good airplanes and they read a thread about taking drugs. I notified two different moderators about this and nothing. You should be ashamed of your selves for talking about drug use on a public forum … Overreact much? Math tutoring available. Only $6! per hour! First lesson: Factorials!

At 1.3 seconds before impact, the self-driving system determined that an emergency braking maneuver was needed to mitigate a collision. According to Uber, emergency braking maneuvers are not enabled while the vehicle is under computer control, to reduce the potential for erratic vehicle behavior. The vehicle operator is relied on to intervene and take action. The system is not designed to alert the operator. Source: https://arstechnica.com/cars/2018/05/emergency-brakes-were-disabled-by-ubers-self-driving-software-ntsb-says/ I interpreted that as the emergency braking that is available on the car from the factory is disabled when the Uber AI is in control, not that the Uber AI was incapable of making an emergency stop.

I have exactly zero trust in the Cheetoh in Chief to refrain from manufacturing a stock market crash in order to create a fantastic investment opportunity for those who can weather the recession with stacks of cash to spare. Math tutoring available. Only $6! per hour! First lesson: Factorials!

That would be factually incorrect, both before and after the correction. Clinton won the popular vote. That's the outcome you have to look at to see what the "average voter" wanted. That being said, even if real-news world-viewers were slightly outnumbered by fake-news world-viewers, the problem would still be with those who can't see past their own confirmation bias to recognize truth when they see it.

US secondary education achievement levels may not be so great by international standards. US post-secondary education, on the other hand, is quite good, which is why our universities attract so many students from those countries with better secondary education. US secondary education struggles in large part because many American students are raised in households in which willful ignorance or disdain for education, those two cornerstones of contemporary American conservatism, are common.

You could be right, of course. You probably are right. But it's her history as a fashion model that makes me believe it's possible someone held up the coat, said, "Here, try this, Ma'am," never allowing her to see the back of the jacket. She sees a cheap pseudo-field jacket that might help her come across as less out of touch. It would be just one more thing she had been told to wear. It just seems so out of character for her. She's typically much classier than that. Math tutoring available. Only $6! per hour! First lesson: Factorials!

Not according to Erowid. One estimate suggested (quoting from memory, because I've already closed the tab) "far above 20 mg, taken orally." Clearly I've never treated this as a front burner project! I've taken lots of hits at once, but I have no idea what the actual dosage was. I was too far removed from the chemists. Same here. Math tutoring available. Only $6! per hour!

I hope there's not going to be any issues... like say if you're color-blind, and you're driving in an area using traffic lights that are oriented differently than you're used to, like horizontally... how do you know if it's red or green? It's been a while since I've seen lights like those. In the US, they should be R-Y-G, left to right. In general, red should be closest to opposing traffic, so the order would be reversed in left-side driving countries. I had to look it up, but it's probably common knowledge among color-blind drivers. Math tutoring available. Only $6! per hour! First lesson: Factorials!

So in your view, fake news and propaganda are "just a counter to [fact based news outlets], and CNN"? All of those networks use the exact same talking points night after night! They have nothing original and look just like the other ones I listed every night all night! The talking points are the relevant facts of the day. Reasonable folks would not find it odd or suspicious that the most credible outlets would report the same facts, day after day. That's what they would, in fact, expect. I'l grant you that their reporting is not as original as the fake news sites to which you like to link. That's going to be true every time you compare fiction and non-fiction. Fiction is always more original than non-fiction. Math tutoring available. Only $6! per hour! First lesson: Factorials!

I wonder if she wasn't trolled by someone on her staff, perhaps at the behest of her husband or one of his underlings. It's not difficult for me to imagine her being given the jacket to put on without ever seeing the back. She's married to a misogynist; would you not expect him to sabotage any message she has that isn't in lock step with his? FLOTUS is definitely out of touch with typical Americans. But I'm not sure that she is missing her moral compass entirely like her husband repeated demonstrates himself to be. ETA: I'm also not entirely convinced she has said compass.

That's the point. If you're not given that all mammals are animals, you cannot assume it. It's tricky on purpose, in order to catch people in a common logical error. Math tutoring available. Only $6! per hour! First lesson: Factorials!

One hypothesis would be that at least 75 percent of Americans are dumber than a box of rocks. Another possible explanation is that many people rushed through, without reading carefully, and missed some. Math tutoring available. Only $6! per hour! First lesson: Factorials!

W.Va. Supreme Court Justice Allen Loughry Is Charged With 22 Counts, Including Fraud "A federal grand jury has indicted West Virginia Supreme Court Justice Allen Loughry on a number of serious charges, from fraud to making false statements and witness tampering. "The indictment says the FBI investigated Loughry under suspicion that for years, he had engaged in a scheme to defraud the government of West Virginia — and that he lied to FBI agents when he was questioned in March. "Loughry, 47, has been suspended without pay, the state Supreme Court says. … "In addition to being a judge, Loughry wrote a book about political corruption in West Virginia; it was published in 2006."

I like them just fine. They're a credible source of non-biased news. Along with several other similarly credible, unbiased sources, I get much of my news from NPR. Math tutoring available. Only $6! per hour! First lesson: Factorials!

Years ago, I read the passage "An honest historian has no country." It was attributed to Thomas Payne, but I've never found any reference to it online, having looked.

A few nights ago I read through a couple dozen forum pages trying to find one single objective true fact in your posts, without success. Pretty sad, given the confidence with which you make your assertions. I think Aesop had something to say on the topic. Sometimes one just has to consider the source. It's pretty safe to assume that the red rectangle captures mostly fake news, right or left. If it's true, it will be picked up by an outlet in the green rectangle. Math tutoring available.
