You’re not speaking metaphorically, anxiety for an exam, or even for just showing up at work, is the same emotion one feels when in a warzone. Your brain is mistakely interpreting some signals as life threatening and trying to save your life by preparing for fight/flight. The immediate cause might be hard to find.

That’s not being hard on yourself, that would be punishing yourself for your failure and telling yourself you are such a disgrace.

I’ve heard great things about it. Does it also work on linux?

We really live in crazy times

With the amount of work they are putting in compatibility layers technology, I wouldn’t be surprised if you could run The Witcher 3 on it out of the box.

At least they tried to hide it, now they don’t.

As for the cold war, if you consider the conflict USA-USSR they clearly won: Russia was, at least at some point, equally powerful to the USA technologically and militarly, what one did first, the other caught up pretty quickly, then the Soviet Government collapsed for various reasons, and they couldn’t catch up, now the USA is arguably the most technologically advanced country in the world, in many aspects.

China is catching up, but they are in no way equally capable.

I don’t want any “smart” crap in my house, I don’t want my appliances to be connected to the internet and to be controlled by an app, it should all be self sufficient.

And if you really want to add the option to be controlled remotely (but should not be the only way) make it a local connection, why should my phone connect to the internet to turn on an AC located three meters away?

Betheda being bethesda as usual, releasing overpriced merchandise, selling the same game you alreadt bought, while not even caring enough to implement bug fixes that modders already figured out gratis for you.

And gamers spread their asscheeks so they can collect every version of the game that Todd spits out his mouth.

Sorry for my saltyness, but bethesda really grinds my gear like few others do.

I would agree, but imagine someone going through a crisis and reading auch wisdom, it can be insulting at best, damaging af worst

You don’t need to feel emotions to understand the chemical, physical and psicological reactions during intimate moments.

A robot may know that an orgasm is a release of neurotransmitters in the brain, how you get one from stimulating certain nerves in the genital area, and the expected recations, all without every feeling one, just like you generally know how it works before you feel your first one.

You can logically understand all the procress because, at a fundamental level, it’s all physics and chemistry.

When Data banged Tasha Yar, he probably perfectly imitated a sexually-capable male, what is not clear is if he liked it or felt anything, please ore emotiom wise.

As for the borg episode you mentioned (I never saw it) if he watched porn he probably recognize all the “mechanical” actions, maybe even learns new techniques, but doesn’t feel aroused as a human would.

That’s the point, cats and mosquitoes are both animals, but not comparable in the care we have for one of the other, both for affection and simply for how differently complex they are, not becuase we kill mosquitoes in self defense. I don’t knkw much about the vegan phylosophy, but is a mosquito at the same level as a cat? If eating cow patties is offlimits, would mosquito patty also be considered meat?

Not critisizing, just curious

In many places mosquitos are not dangerous and are at most annoying. Can I kill an animal because it’s buzzing by my ear? Or should I capture and let it outside?

Also, is this Loss/Saddam Hussein?

I know, what I’m saying is that latte = milk in italian, so if you ordered latte in Italy you would get a glass of milk, that’s what I mean by mistranslation

English has a really bad habit of mistranslating things, for some reason latte = coffee+milk, while latte means milk

No shaming :) I can have a chuckle on a something that can be considered tragic, I just couldn’t tell if such messages were ironic or just oblivious curiosity.

That’s on my I guess

Is this supposed to be satirical? Because it looks like it.

I’m not saying women cannot monetize their bodies while celebrating their independency, I’m just saying this particular kind of porn videos do not give me this impression, especially since they always creep me out somewhat when I stumble upon one of them. They are either good actors or sometines they seeme genuinely unhappy to be in there.

Unfortunately the exploitation in the porn industry is so high, it’s entirely possible that one of these women didn’t really want to be in any video, especially if you consider that those kind of video are mostly filmed in low-income eastern europe country, so it’s either a localized cultural feticism, or just a place where it’s easier to find vulnerable girls.

People don’t like being told they are wrong, so, if you are sure they are indeed wrong, giving them the option to reconsider is usually more tactful and polite.

Also, I don’t know what your job is, but noone ks paid to be right. People make mistake because you can never be fully certain of anything. You are paid for your time/experience, and that allows you to be wrong (at least in a healthy environment).

Mine is Dyson because he eats any kind of food (regardless of who is eating at the moment) and he will always lick the plate cleaner than it was.
