"Well.... If the person is wearing a drysuit + appropriate gear beneath and has good training and is with a group it may not be *but* I see that they aren't wearing gloves so I'm unsure. Still, I don't think the average person would do something like that and the kind of person that would do that would likely have good gear. I'm guessing they took their gloves off then posed for the photo. \n \n",

"Is this on the river Tethys",
"Well if for whatever reason you tipped or got a decent amount of that water in your kayak you’re probably screwed. Considering your now freezing to death body is on a very short timer and you’re only option is paddle yourself out of there while your muscles slowly lock up. ",
"My guess is that they are wearing drysuits under that (hopefully waterproof) jacket. So as long as they are experienced (which anyone kayaking in cold temperatures or climates should be) and know how to roll and get out of the water quickly on their own they should be fine. I would be more nervous about the ice moving myself.",
"Yes. These are the ice caves to the ice fortress in which Conan the barbarian slayed the Wizard. They are in danger of collapse at any moment.",
"[Thought it was this?](https://youtu.be/TVEyGntyOZQ)",
"That, or a gremlin clearing out my ear canal with a qtip.",
"Well that was an unexpected combination. Great photo and a bit unnerving to me.",
"The fact that someone already ran lighting through makes me think it's been vetted at least a little. \nAnyone know where this is? I'd be down. ",
"Exactly this. I remember the first time I saw pictures of someone in an ice cave I was like \"wow that is so beautiful!\" then I read how unstable ice caves are and I was like \"wow that is so stupid!\" That being said I do understand the compulsion to take risks to \"get the shot\". I've climbed a few places I probably shouldn't have myself. ",
"I'd be hard to gauge the scale. ",

"If it's an iceberg and it flips upside down, that tunnel could be under water. Gloves don't help much there... ",
"I haven't seen anyone else mention that if a wave or swell momentarily raises the water level up about seven feet (not crazy given how narrow the cave is) the entire buoyant force of the kayak will crush the paddler up into the ceiling. That could be over 300 pounds of force.",
"I knew a first responder to an ice fall at Big Four ice caves NE of Seattle. He said a woman was nearly cut in half by a shard of ice hitting her. She didn't make it.",

In the anime when this technique technically first appeared, Beerus utilizes the Ultra Instinct technique as he is fighting Goku in King Kai's planet, then later as Android 18, Tien Shinhan, and Piccolo attack him together, before blowing them away. In the manga's Zen Exhibition Match, Beerus uses Ultra Instinct against the other Gods of Destruction, enabling him to handle multiple Gods of Destruction simultaneously; however, he is eventually restrained by Mosco due to not having yet perfected the ability. Whis often uses this ability against Goku and Vegeta during training, and reveals its existence at around the time of Frieza's revenge.

However, I'm going to give you some samples about the correlation of mathematics and the real world.\n\nNumber theory was considered for a long time to be the only pure mathematchics with no \"practical\" application. Hardy even wrote the book \"Mathematicians apology\" on the subject. However, recently this thing called computer changed things. The modern cryptography relies solely on the pure mathematical theory of number theory - that is, every time you send a text message or do online transactions you can thank number theory.\n\nThat is an example I love - the beautiful pure mathematics actually made the whole Information Age possible :)\n\nComplex numbers (f.ex. 3i-2) are extremely important in many fields of physics. Both fields that make measurements and ones that don't. (Or is theoretical physics not a science as well?)\n\nThe couple of basic axioms of mathematics, that all mathematics is derived from, are based on our observations of nature. F.ex. 1+1=2 That is why, even though mathematics is not based on making measurements of anything, it describes the underlying and invisible mechanisms of the world. That is why theoretical mathematics can be used to help so many \"real life\" problems in physics and other empirical sciences - even if when making those theorems the mathematician had no motivation in an empirical problem.",

That's often what happens with jehovahs witnesses , they learn one side so thoroughly they don't have any info from ex jehovahs witnesses to make them critically analyse decisions better. \n\n\nI feel like I have to mention this because I've had a lot of assumptions made about me, but I was a scientist in a field that may be a viable decent stop gap solution before we get to fusion or Higher efficiency renewable energy as a energy crisis solution. \n\n\nWhat Eric and Bret weinstein talked about that modern science has a bunch of underlying assumptions within the system that have not been critically examined to see if there is more science under the bedrock, this is the same with climate science. \n\nThe models use a lot of simplifications that can massively impact predictive abilities, and being able to assess risk accurately is not a job scientists can do well. It's a job economists can do very well. \n\n\nMy view is that I have a 60% belief that anthropogenic climate change exists but that its not doomsday already even remotely and there are various other mechanisms in play we have not properly examined because climate scientists are in so much lockstep agreement there is no critical B team to examine the data and find different options. \n\nFor example solar cooling, or the assumption that companies will continue extracting resources all the way up to resource exhaustion when that is not the case. We are in a system where people and companies respond to change when there is a cheap way to price it in. \n\nhttp://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/aaa494\n\n\nAlso not discussed is what would the effects of a global tax have on the economies of the world that abide by it in the marketplace. \n\nWhy don't we have a figure that shows for instance how many of the poor would die due to a slowdown of the economy caused by massive climate change policies (so affects on health service, joblessness, life expectancy etc) versus the predicted amount of poor that would die as a result of anthropogenic climate change. \n\n\nBecause it's a zero sum system when it comes to government money (though life is still not a zero sum game) we have to figure out whether the cost will solve the problem or will it simply hamper our ability to innovate to solve the problem at high efficiency and on scale when it becomes economically viable to do so. Profit is the best motivator for solution finding, not taxation. \n\n\nBest example I can give of this is how 3rd World countries skipped infrastructure and went to mobile technology for business and banking. \n\nChina and the South East Asian countries in particular, really embraced fast Internet because they didn't spend money on broadband and telephone modems so the west did the R&D and now they have faster Internet than us. \n\nThat's an example of delaying a big decision to gain a competitive advantage when the technology is there and ready to be implemented. \n\nAnd now that they are mobile banking ready their economies are growing faster even for the poor which helps other countries via trade. \n\n",

A disaster cannot be predicted, any scientist claiming 100% certainty that if we don't decrease CO2 emissions by a certain amount within 50 years we'll all be underwater is not only lying, they're ignoring the potential of technology. We will burn coal and oil until none of it's left because not only can the energy be used, the \"dirty\" process of extracting the energy produces other valuable materials. We'll use all the minerals, all the metals, all the resources and all the different kinds of energy. And we won't just figure out how to live sustainably by switching to electric cars and mostly renewables, we'll also figure out how to capture pollution from the environment, we'll send out nanobots that clean the oceans of plastic and repurpose those materials. People are shouting to pull back, stop investing in new energy projects. That's so wrong, we need as much energy as possible so that energy is as cheap as possible.

"Plus - and partly a result of my believing mathematics is a science - the unifying force of science is that of using deductive logic to draw conclusions. The rule of falsifiability. When you take whatever axioms and previously proved findings you need to deduce something new (often but not always with support of empirical data).\n\nNever do you or need to induce something in a science. You may make a hypothesis based on some inductive logic (because some *good* inductive arguments can be made), but a hypothesis is then *tested.* The test is essentially an attempt in contradiction. In mathematics, a generalised answer to a specific problem may be contradicted very clearly: just show an example where the rule does not apply.\n\nAnd in all sciences what can happen is you reiterate on the theory, and formulate a new hypothesis to test. Euclidean geometrical rules may be a good example if I'm not way out of my depth, here: previously, they were thought to apply *everywhere:* a triangle's interior angles always add up to 180^(o). This does not apply on a 3-dimensional surface. So this Euclidean rule isn't necessarily *wrong,* it is amended: a triangle on any 2D surface will have its interior angles add up to 180^(o). I don't know if this applies to all Euclidean rules, so anyone can feel free to clarify.\n\nMathematics is a science. Empirical data being a requirement to class a school as a science is, to me, missing the point of science. Science seeks truths that can be proven or supported with great -- nay, perfect -- logic. Empirical data is just a means to that end. If mathematics can elucidate truths that apply in the physical universe without it, then it's still a science to me.\n\nPardon my rambling.

"I never argued that mathematics had no correlation to the real world. I'm also not arguing that pure mathematical constructs can't be built and then realised in the real world. What I am arguing is that science is the process through which we develop our understanding of the natural world, via measurement and observation, and that mathematics doesn't concern itself with the measurement and observation of the natural world, so it's not a science. All the real world applications in the universe won't change what it is, fundamentally.\n\nI'm well aware of the use of complex numbers in many fields of physics, and while that's an application of complex numbers (to allow the description of rotation/wave motion), there is no physical basis for 3i-2 like there is for 1+1=2: they're an abstraction. They help describe real world phenomena, but they are *not* real world phenomena. I'd go as far as to argue that 1+1=2 is abstraction as well, how would you describe the physical properties of precisely 1 apple? It's volume, mass, caloric content, nutritional content, etc? You could do that for *an* apple, but \"1\" apple? There is no 1 apple, where slightly larger apples are 1.1 apples, and slightly smaller apples are 0.9 apples. So already having 1, 2, 3 apples is a level of mathematical abstraction that negates some portion of physical reality in exchange for convenience and simplicity. You could average all the apples in the world and give me values for mass, volume, etc, but again an average is just another level of abstraction. \n\nI'll concede that plenty of maths was developed based on observations (calculus, etc), and that mathematics can and is used to describe the underlying mechanics of physical reality (I use it every day), but that doesn't make it science. You can describe a flower in English but that doesn't make English a form of botany, and beyond that, flowers aren't the only thing that can be described in English. Which, in a similar sense, applies to maths, because mathematics isn't restricted to describing *only* physical reality. There are infinitely more things with no basis in physical reality that can be described using mathematics than there are that do have a basis in physical reality. Mathematics doesn't automatically describe the natural world, you have to combine it with science to do that.\n\nJust to repeat my main point: I'm not arguing that mathematics isn't used to solve real life problems, I'm arguing that it is not a science in itself. Scientific truth is generated via measurements and observations, innately tied to physical reality. Mathematical truth is generated via axioms and proofs, and isn't confined to what exists in physical reality. It goes much deeper than that. ",

"As a chemical engineer who has flip-flopped from a focus in carbon-based renewables to fossil fuel extraction to hydrogen production I can empathise with you on people making assumptions. I assure you I made none. But we're past the point where it could be easily and cheaply solved as well. Even if we managed to flip over to 100% renewables and carbon neutrality overnight we'd still have to stop the damage already caused or face damage as a result of it.\n\nYes, it's unlikely that fossil fuels will be harvested until there are none left in the ground. They're already facing competitive pricing due to China and others subsidising current tech. The chances are that regardless of any policy changes the energy giants of the world already fully expect that they will switch from fossil fuels as their majority investments. But this is where the tax comes in. You suggest that the tax will slow down the economy but human ingenuity is beyond that, I feel. The demand for what can be made via the use of carbon will still exist. It's simply that in the previously marginal cases of adopting a tech vs keeping an old one the answer will become obvious. \n\nYou say that profit is the best motivator and I agree. That's why people will find ways that allow them to maximise profits while minimising taxes - as they always do.

"99.9% consensus on climate change being real. My argument is not that this shouldn't be dealt with, rather that the technology and processes we will use to deal with it mostly don't yet exist. There are countries slowing their energy production, there are countries constraining companies from collecting oil and distributing it. These countries will suffer from higher energy prices, higher cost of business as a result, and the biggest effect will be cost of computation. \n\nBut anyway, again, my argument is that the fix to global warming is not to stop doing what originally caused it. What originally caused it is carbon emissions, that's the 99.9% consensus I'm aware of, the consensus you mentioned is inaccurate and a lie. The fix to global warming is clean energy production via better technology. Oil is literally one of the most energy rich substances on the planet, it's fucking dense like you. If the good guys don't use it to produce oodles of energy and computational power, the bad guys will. There are a lot of ways to collect carbon emissions from the atmostphere, as well as extract energy from oil and coal while, again like I stated before, only producing useable byproducts. It's more expensive, but that's why there should be a carbon tax. \n\nBlind followers such as yourself don't realize why a carbon tax is the best idea. It would still allow us to burn as much oil as we want, while taking into account an appropriate external cost. I'm not a climate change denier, I'm with the consensus on that, I'm against the consensus that we should entirely stop burning fossil fuels. All the world leaders agree the world would be plugged into chaos if we stopped burning fossil fuels to meet energy demand. Quote me some facts please, I'd be happy to point you towards some patented technologies that have overwhelming scientific evidence showing that climate change can be mitigated not just by limiting our resource burn, but by burning our resources more intelligently. \n\nI don't understand what we even disagree on, I think you're used to jumping on anyone that isn't 100% against oil and fossil fuels.

Climate change is here, now, and will only get worse.What we aren't sure of is whether we can even do anything in time to fix it.

"This is why the fearful and the progressive curious risk-takers are the core to understanding creativity.\n\nFamiliarity involves information or environments you know are safe or unsafe already. Familiar can be trekked safely. The unknown is undetermined to be safe or unsafe as of yet. The more risky has more potential for discovery than familiarity, because familiarity cannot lead to discovery, by definition, because it is the known. Novelty is the basis of discovery. Venturing into the unknown risks death, which poses evolutionary-survival problems. There is genetic benefit for advancing society, via exploration of environments and ideas and technologies, but we need most of society to fear change and the unknown. Fearing the unknown provides more evolutionary benefit than does craving the unknown, but craving the unknown is still useful, or even necessary. These traits operate on a gradient, rather than binary, trait/non-trait status. It’s inevitable that those who fear the unknown will reject extreme risk takers. Schizophrenics, ADHD, and bipolar individuals go into the riskiest zones of reality, the creative zones. Education can heavily alter the outcome of theory-thinkers, such as schizophrenics. Theory-thinking does not necessarily correlate with factual and correct information. Being intelligent does not guarantee more correct interpretations of reality. People with these disorders aren’t inherently uneducated though. In general, most people are actually severely uneducated. The overlap of the uneducated with schizophrenics would be heavy, leading to poor outcomes and justifying the stigma, due to the dangers of uneducated hypotheses, and essentially uneducated risk-taking. We also stereotype our rejection of novel ideas. It doesn’t mean the ideas are wrong but rather, potentially wrong, instead.",

But the Earth's climate is never truly in some stable equilibrium where sea levels can't suddenly rise without us predicting it.\n\nAnyway, the answer to our problems, to the problems of climate science, are floating cities, space factories, nanotechnology, burning some of that sweet sweet crude you despise so much to power it all. Yes, solar panels will be cheap. The factories will power themselves. But for now we should literally maximize our energy output, we should make it as cheap as possible and with as much competition as possible, and we should have a carbon tax based on emissions. Since it's already nearly economically viable to burn gas while utilizing all the off products, a carbon tax equal to the difference would incentivize gas producers to switch from refining to just extracting the power themselves and distributing after.

Also, this article states that people use gender interchangeably with sex, but, as people on your side of this argument say all the time, language changes. Words are defined by the user, and most users of the word gender use it interchangeably with sex, which also just so happens to fit the etymology and the proper definition of the word.",

I'm glad we got to experience the hardships of pregnancy, and be able to relate to others going through this terrible time in their relationship.

"Awesome dude. How did u do it?",
"Started off obese and finally decided it was time to lose weight. Started off with cardio only and lost 26 kilos because of that. Then, after seeing that I was starting to get lose skin, I decided to start lifting because I had heard that it helped reduce lose skin. So I lost about 12 kilos more (picture taken after losing 7 kilos). And yeah, I’m still going hard at it. ",
"Did u do anything particular with ur diet or just avoid junk food?\n\nI hear intermittent fasting helps with loose skin. No idea on the science behind that one tho",
"When I first started off, I just avoided junk food and sugary and fried stuff. After I started lifting I got really serious about the diet. Other than cheat meals, I only eat chicken, rice, eggs, salami, a bowl of cereal and then a few fruits and vegetables. But I strictly record everything through the app ‘MyFitnessPal’ and that helps a lot. It tells you how many calories you need in a day and in what proportion your macros should be in, depending on your goal. \n\nI don’t know about intermittent fasting but I do know that through weight training it will go. And to be honest, I don’t trust intermittent fasting mostly because of the fact that when you don’t eat for a long time you will gain weight and all of that. But I don’t know. I haven’t done my research. ",
"That's awesome dude. I use simple macro instead of fitness pal :) and I've nearly completely stopped eating chicken. It's not very nutrient dense it's just kind of pure protein, like egg whites, which isn't very good for u. Throw some fish in ur diet if u don't hate fish like some people do\n\nIntermittent fasting means u do all ur eating in a 4-9 hour window every day and don't eat for the rest. It's proven to reduce fat and increase muscle mass. You don't take days off or anything like that. It mainly works by increasing your growth hormone by like 2800% or something ridiculous like that. Have a look into it dude :)\n\nI did a really heavy deadlift session on a 28 hour fast before and I set a new pr. The shit is real :)",
"Oh shit congrats on the PR! How much was it?\n\nI used to love fish but I live in India so for me it’s a little bit to come across something as cheap as chicken. The cheapest fish here is The ‘basa’ fish. I don’t really know what it’s called in English. English isn’t my first language. \n\nI’ll definitely look into intermittent fasting but I have my finals starting in 2 days and I want to just keep everything working so that I’m not tired and I can’t study or whatever. But thanks anyway!",
"It was 165kg. I dont know what that is in lbs. That was last year too so it's prob gone up I just havnt tested my 1rm in a while.\n\nWell if it's a cheap fish it probably isn't the most healthy. Anyways dude if it's working for u don't change a thing :)",
"165 is lot! I personally don’t like deadlifts but I have tested my bench and squat 1rm PR many times. Last month, I squatted 100 kilos (2 20 kg plates on each side with a 20 kg bar). My legs has always been strong because I used to be a cyclist and professional squash athlete. My upper body, however is quite weak. It’s not even close to my legs. My bench PR is 55 kilos (20 kg plate on each side and a 15 kg bar). In the deadlift category I stick to stiff leg deadlifts for my hamstrings but I have never tested my 1rm on that."

"One member of the Dambusters straight up named his dog Nigger\n\n>The Operations Room for the mission was at 5 Group Headquarters in St Vincents Hall, Grantham, Lincolnshire. The mission codes (transmitted in morse) were: Goner, meaning \"bomb dropped\"; Nigger, meaning that the Möhne was breached; and Dinghy, meaning that the Eder was breached. \"Nigger\" was the name of Gibson's dog, a black labrador retriever that had been run over and killed on the morning of the attack. \"Dinghy\" was Young's nickname, a reference to the fact that he had twice survived crash landings at sea where he and his crew were rescued from the aircraft's inflatable rubber dinghy.\n\n"

"Seriously I mean no offense, because I like your color palette, but I think it would be more obvious what it was if you could've made him stand & thinned out the legs; foil underneath instead of using solid clay throughout will prevent a single level blob. \n\n(I thought it was a melted xylophone\n:-/ until I read other comments) ",
"I'm by no means a good sculptor, but one day, I aspire to be one, so thank you! \n\nI love polymer clay, but it certainly isn't my first and/or chosen medium, so all sculpting tips gratefully received!\n\nThanks for the corrections :)",
"You are off to a very good start! You have a great eye for color, and definitely have natural skill. Also, I admire your choice to make such a challenging piece. As I'm sure you already know, polymer clay is quite costly, so the more you are able to use foil balls & ropes underneath clay layers, it will not only stretch your dollar but it will bake your creations more thoroughly without cracking your thinner pieces.\nLots of luck!! :-)",
"I really genuinely love both your critique and support! You're helping me be a better artist, and are so nice as well! This is why I love Reddit :)\n\nThank you so much for your considered input, it's really instructive!",
"Very fun! And night bright colors.\n\nI do agree that unless this was intended to be a particular character that crawls on its belly, or was a posture/look you intended for another reason (which it certainly could have been), it might have been better to have the body raised up on its legs a bit if you wanted it more like a lobster: \nhttps://www.google.com/images?q=lobster+walking\n\nCan't tell exactly how large this item is, but if you do want to save on polymer clay when making thicker areas, using various \"permanent armatures\" inside the clay can do that (and important to use them to avoid cracking while baking if any area will be solid and thicker than 1 1/4\" as well). \n All kinds of things can be used as permanent armatures from tightly-scrunched shapes of aluminum foil, to shapes of (thoroughly dry) paper-based air-dry clay or papier mache, foil-covered \"Styrofoam,\" wire mesh and wire, dried or sealed wood, whole blown eggshells, and many more. \n\nAnd the stronger lines of polymer clay can also be used (often with temporary armatures) to make \"shells\" of clay in just about any shape, etc, instead.\n\nIf you're interested in those things, there are a number of pages at my polymer clay site you could check out for info (see below). \nAnd btw both permanent and temporary armatures or forms, etc, are used not only inside or under polymer clay sculpts but also inside or under all the other items that polymer clay can create (e.g., vessels, jewelry, and \"covering\" more things than one can usually imagine)\n\nYou might also be interested in all the cool \"bugs\" etc that clayers have made, sometimes with mixed media--sometimes simple and cartoony, sometimes realistic, etc, etc (limited only by imagination): \nhttps://www.google.com/images?q=polymer+clay+bug\n\nYou seem to like color too, so be aware that zillions of new colors can be created by mixing together two or more colors of solid clay or by mixing in certain polymer clay-safe colorants, as well as created by adding more particulate \"inclusions\" for all kinds of interesting colors and fauxs, etc. \nIn fact, a whole palette of colors can be mixed from just 3 basic colors plus black and a lot of white. \nIf interested in those options, check out at least these pages at my site (tho more on other pages): \nhttp://glassattic.com/polymer/color.htm \nhttp://glassattic.com/polymer/inclusions.htm \n\nIf you have questions about polymer clay in the future or want to show items you've made (including this), or anything else, you might want to post in r/polymerclay.\n\nRe armatures and \"covering\" things, there's *loads* of info/tutorials/tips/variations/etc on at least the following pages of the site too. \nIf interested click on each from the alphabetical nav bar on the 2 pages linked to above, or easiest to do from the *Table of Contents* page (and/or scroll down that whole page to browse all that's covered at the site):\nhttp://glassattic.com/polymer/contents.htm \n \n--Armatures-Perm \n--Armatures-Temp \n\n--Covering (including > Slices & Sheets) \n--Beads (> Covering a Core) \n--Vessels \n--Eggs \n--BOH \n--Pens \n--Frames, Mirrors, & Decorative Tiles \n--Books, Covers (> Notebook, Journal, etc) \n--Christmas & Winter (e.g., > Glass Ball Ornaments) \n--Halloween & Other Holidays \n\n\n",

The Soviet weapons production was famously shoddy during war communism 1918-21 where factory owners beat their workers if they were unproductive and use terror tactics. This led to cheap low quality mass produced weapons being made, so you're either lying about that or you really are ignorant. Socialism and communism don't work, and if you want socialism go to Venezuela where people are shooting their pets to eat.

So there's less incentive to slaughter every last wolf than there is to harvest every last piece of ivory.\n\nYes, licenses and regulated hunting have helped save several different NorAm species, but those same strategies will not work with elephants.\n\nThis is all of course aside from the fact that elephants are far more intelligent than any land mammals found in the Western Hemisphere. The propriety of killing animals that posses language, engage in ritualized gatherings to mourn their dead, and otherwise generally behave far more like humans than like wolves is questionable at best. This acknowledgement of the potential sapience of other mammal species is what led to international bans on whaling. The enforcement of **those** bans did far more to save whale populations than any hunting regulations or licensing. (Of course there's still more work to be done, but we did bring a number of whale populations back from the brink of extinction. The same cannot yet be said for elephants.)\n\nOne size does not fit all.

"The point is westerners aren't poaching wildlife. \"Western poachers\" isn't a thing. Poachers are almost exclusively locals who kill indiscriminately without paying anything, and then sell the parts on the black market to generate a profit. When a rich western tourist pays to hunt big game, they pay a massive price and are given an animal to hunt. It has nothing to do with profit and it's sanctioned by the authorities. They are funding the protection against actual poachers. As far as this Thai case, the \"billionaire\" in question is Thai, not a westerner and the case is somewhat unique. In other words, OP is a bundle of sticks. ",
"The actual poachers are almost exclusively locals who kill indiscriminately, pay nothing, and sell the parts on the black market for profit. \"Western poachers\" isn't a thing, at all. Westerners aren't even the target market for the poachers. In fact, the fees big game hunters pay pay to protect against actual poachers. In other words, OP is a clueless bundle of sticks. ",

"Eagle 20, fox 2.... or some shit like that.",
"To add some more information. The F-16 is fly-by-wire so the flight control surfaces are 100% electronically controlled. The stick the pilot uses is a force transducer. It only moves a fraction of an inch so instead of measuring the deflection it measure the amount of force. You can literally fly the F-16 with one finger on the stick. What's even cooler is the ~~stability~~ command augmentation system. The amount of deflection on the control surfaces is dependent on air speed and density. So a certain amount of force on the stick results in a proportional amount of G forces no matter the speed of the plane. It is one of the easiest planes to fly in the world (assuming you can handle 9+ Gs regularly).\n\n[Edit] - Corrected the augmentation system name. Stability Augmentation is the system that maintains the planes position even with outside forces. If you put the plane sideways it will do everything it can to maintain that position despite sheer winds and even battle damage. There is a HUD mode called \"ground clobber\" (not joking) that allows you to aim the plane at a point on the map. So if you need to eject you can aim the plane at an empty area and the plane will fly itself to that point (if it can).",
"I worked on these planes for years and the HUD looks wonky to me. It looks like the older HUD with the thick support bars but it has the newer GPS system. Maybe they retrofitted the block 30s with the block 40 GPS. Any pointy heads or pilots around who can say?",
"Being 6'4 it sucks, the military is heightist!",
"Possibly not American. The flight suit looks different. ",
"They are very similar planes. A lot of the same avionics. The F-18 is larger with much lower stall speed and heavier landing gear to land on carriers and lower power due to the fuel economy the Navy requires fore their longer missions. Both engines in the F-18 are only about 80% as powerful as the single F-16 engine. ",

Pilot somehow survived, unfortunately the back seater did not.\n\nAnyway, here's the relevant quote.\n\n> Two weeks after the accident Weaver was back in a Blackbird. As he recalls: “It was my first flight since the accident, so a flight test engineer in the back seat was probably a little apprehensive about my state of mind and confidence. As we roared down the runway and lifted off, I heard an anxious voice over the intercom. “Bill! Bill! Are you there?” “Yeah George. What’s the matter?” “Thank God! I thought you might have left.” The rear cockpit of the SR-71 has no forward visibility – only a small window on each side – and George couldn’t see me. A big red light on the master-warning panel in the rear seat had illuminated just as we rotated, stating: “Pilot Ejected”. Fortunately, the cause was a misadjusted micro switch, not my departure.”\n",

Cool job, I loved it but I'm happy I don't fix them anymore. \n\nFun fact about this picture. To the left of his right hand you can see something that looks like a ton of square buttons. Those are lights that you press down to change the bulb...someone has mashed that thing down and a ton of the bulbs are rises. These lights are generally pretty important...not super important though because the important ones are going to be in the pilots immediate view.",
"The wide angle definitely exaggerated things, but it was interesting to learn that the pliot's seat is reclined about 30 degrees backwards.

"The pilot is actually sitting square in the seat, but the seat is about 45* reclined, it's actually super comfortable.",
"Jeez you weren't kidding about the lurking",
"The pilot pretty much has to know everything you see. It seems like a lot but there's a sameness to it and the main instrumentation is laid out the same in most airplanes. Right in front of the pilot is the artificial horizon with pitch and roll and some other handy stuff. That's surrounded with heading, airspeed, and altitude. This is the basic information you need to fly and land in one piece. You can tell this is older cockpit because all the instruments are separate. Newer cockpits have displays that integrate all that. Because there's a sameness to cockpits, the learning curve has more to do with the performance of the aircraft and not the instrumentation per se.",

"UI looks cluttered",
"Yup, it's better :)",
"I had the opposite reaction.",
"What about Flightgear?",
"New cockpits are all glass meaning they use displays to show status of the aircraft and environment. There are still lots of switches though.",
"nah, not at all talking about the blackbird. just saying if someone was moving 300 miles in a few (seconds) and they ejected, you would watch a spectacular fireball in the sky - not the body come apart in \"pink mist\".",
"You're right. Man, my memory is shot. And I worked on block 42s.\nI was flight controls though, so all the times I sat in the seat were spent looking at the MFDs and not the HUD.",
"How is that?",
"Oh... I was wondering if Flightgear had a realistic F-16, since Flightgear is libre software",

"This is awesome. You're happy about it. omg you're happy about it. Just to let you know, i support Trump. I support him because he is going to fist you so deep, you're going to need a new set of internal organs.\n\nAnd then he'll get impeached (or fuck the consitution)..either of which is awesome. And you've created divide in your country for nothing. \n\nThis could not have gone better. and you're happy about this. Love it.",
"your comment reeks of mental illness. are you ok dude. where you bullied everyday in your childhood? seek help",

"wtf is this bot",
"Hey. How come half of your moral leadership is begging for donations using picture of kids who are considered crisis actors by the other half of your moral leadership?\n\nDid those kids die or did those crisis actors fake die? \n\nAnd what the fuck does you Trump daddy need money for?

Germanys own politicans (e.g. [Merkel](http://www.dw.com/image/15697646_303.jpg)) are by no means an exemption to be depicted in a rude way. \nSo, before you start yelling about \"leftists\" or lament how dare Germans criticize your beloved pres, be aware that part of the carnival is exactly that: to dare to say and do things one would normaly not do, especially towards authorities. \nYou will always find something which wont align with your political/personal opinion, but that is on you, guys.",
"The people who made this waggon dont hate him, they see him as the clown he appears to be. And they are using an exaggereted depicture at the appropriate place, in a carnivals parade, not on regular days.\nThat is quite a big difference to Mr Trump´ actions."

Replaced them with some black wire frames and stopped wearing them a couple years down the line.\n\nWent to college a couple years later and there were a few people with black horn rimmed glasses at school. Thought nothing of it. Skip to a few years later and everyone had them. Now it was “hipster.”\n\nEyes start to strain again. Look for old prescription. Can’t find it. Go to eye doctor.

They helped me to branch out into other theatres and corporate gigs. I was eager to learn and do good work. People noticed and were willing to drag me from gig to gig based solely on my ethic. One became an amazing friend and when I was having a hard time finding a steady job, he hired me to work in an AV warehouse. He knew I was above the work there, but they had the contract for rigging at our convention center, so when they needed help, he'd send me there as a ground rigger (guy who stands below the left and help get the rigger in the lift stuff). The rigger took notice of my ethic and ability to learn and retain, so when the time came for him to move on, he and my friend basically went to bat for me, saying that I might not be an experienced rigger, but they would hold my hand. \n\nIt's a LOT of who you know, but you have to impress the ones you know. If you want to get into it, join the stagehand's union or a stangehand labor hall like Rhino, NRG, PSAV etc etc, and be willing and eager to learn and do.

"The issue with cold brew is that without heat a lot of the more complex flavor compounds go un-extracted from the bean. That's also why the acidity is lower, the heat is what leeches those things out of the bean. So what you end up with is an underwhelming cup that's relatively devoid of character.\n\nThe bright side that you get a very consistent, easy to drink cup that's relatively blind to bean quality. Because a limited number of flavors are being extracted, you're going to get a similar product from a decent prepackaged, preground bag as you would freshly roasted and ground bean.\n\nThat's why cold brew has enjoyed so much mainstream success — it's easy to drink with light simple flavors and low acidity, and when compared to the black-fountain coffee most people are drinking on a daily basis it does taste better. But that's not necessarily because cold brew is great, it's because there's a lot of bad coffee out there.\n\nI don't mean to say that cold brew is completely awful. It's a great for people who are particularly sensitive to acid, or as a stepping stone for people who are used to covering up their coffee with sugary creamers. It's something better than drip-brewed folgers that people can make at home without needing an expensive espresso maker, or even a kettle. But if you're paying $4-6 dollars for a cup of coffee, there's a world more depth of flavor you could be getting. And if you like cold brewed coffee but want to dip your feet into other ways of making good coffee at home, I'd implore you to go get an Aeropress. They're cheap, dead simple, easy to clean, and they can give you an incredible cup of coffee.\n\nThat's definitely way too long of a rant about cold brew, but I'm getting my penny's worth out of this poo break.

Ian's story was over the top and farfetched, but he should go to jail regardless. Definitely don't think you can be an EMT as a felon.. also the back and forth with Trevor is too dramatic and tacky. \n3. Debbie should never be performing work without steel toe boots. We know she has them because she would never be admitted to the classes without them.. so that's just a silly plot hole than I'm not sure what they're going to do with it. \n4. Lip finally got the chance with the girl he's been working towards for 2 years, and he ends up trashing it to potentially adopt Eddie's cousin..? The entire season was him whining about his sobriety while worrying about other's problems too.. \n5. Carl and that fucking psychopath Cassie lasted way too long. I thought it was funny after their first interaction in the basement, but it needed to end an episode after that. I'm afraid she'll be in the start of S9 as well.. \n6. Frank started off as the most interesting character, finally becoming a father for Liam and a member of society, and now he's just his original self instead of finding an alternative part time job. \n7. Fiona should never have been cleared of that lawsuit. I'm in property management, and maybe it's that fact that this one sticks with me more, but there's no scenario where she wins that case, that's a slam dunk liability claim. For them to give it up for less than $2k is ridiculous, and since they have squatters rights all they needed to do was call the cops and say that she put a stink bomb in their apartment with intent to injure.. On top of that, Ford is just out of place and I can't stand it. \n \n \nIdk though, maybe I'm just annoyed and blowing things out of proportion.",

"I'd be very surprised if the soluble composition of cold brew vs hot coffee from the same roasted bean differed very much as all. The overwhelming flavor affecting reaction in coffee is Maillard and Maillard like reactions occurring during roasting, producing melanoidins, caramelized sugars, methylbutanol, acetylaldehyde, etc . . . Water:coffee ratio and temperature will affect the way these compounds will taste in solution and the overall ph of the solution. You are right that perhaps more will be \"pulled\" from the bean in hot brew, but this could overcome by pouring flash boiled water over the beans pre chill and honestly, most will likely still be solubilized from the grounds in a standard cold brew procedure. My guess is the biggest difference in taste from cold brew vs hot is quite literally just the temperature of the solution, which does affect the way you perceive taste/what you taste, and how those solublized components interact with you.",

"It is different, and not just due to serving temp. Despite the name, cold brew coffee can be and is often served warm. It still tastes different.\n\nThe basics are that soluble compounds in coffee beans dissolve best between 195-205°f, with some chemical components essentially requiring heat to be dissolved at any meaningful level (some of these are the bittering, acidic chemicals that cold brew is famously devoid of). Heat also provides for a quicker extraction, meaning the chemicals drawn out of the bean are more volatile and and fragrant, which is where serving temperature (and expediency) affects taste most. \n\nVery high temperatures also encourage oil oxidation, and acid degradation which is why brew temps need to be controlled in hot brews. This is the main issue cold brew seeks to solve. Cold brewing doesn't efficiently extract many of the offending chemicals, and coffee brewed cold and stored cold can avoid oxidation for weeks. But due to that general inefficiency of extraction, it requires much more time and twice as many grounds to produce the same amount of palatable product.",

"I think a lot of those compounds I listed are miscable at room temp and arent volatile until like 200°C. In addition to that, they are generally anionic which I think would offset oxidation. Which compounds are you referring to (generally curious, food chemistry is certainly not an area of expertise for me and I certainly want to learn more because food is fun!). So if the majority of flavor producing compounds are produced by roasting, they are soluble (more extraction time may be required depending on the method) and non gaseous in the full range of temp, I'm still dubious to the degree of difference between hot coffee and a flash boiled or prolonged cold brew. I wonder if someone has done a mass spec experiment comparing normal hot coffee and comparatively ratio'd cold brew, that would be pretty fun to see. Also a tasty experiment to perform haha",

"I have a friend I use to keep track of the shifting tides of the hipster movement, and he appears to be at the cutting edge from what I gather. The mainstream understanding of the term is extremely outdated. Beards? Craft beers? Flannel? That's all played out and has been for years. Hipsters moved on from that probably close to a decade ago. \n\nFirst, they are largely sober these days. Many went too far in their youthful experimentation, often diving deep into their search for creative individualism, but in their growing maturity realized the route to fulfillment requires a clean body and mind. They may still use nicotine or caffeine, but that will change soon if they can help it. Sugar and meat are no longer safe either.\n\nTheir intellectual pursuits have morphed as well, while ultimately still centered around the arts. Beyond the more mainstream forms of literature and poetry, they're branching into the realm of organized religion, though I'm not sure I'd go as far as to say they're believers. Religion is falling out of favor in the developed world moreso every day, which has them licking their kombucha glistened chops.\n\nMusically, they have explored the depths of every genre and while quite varied, their tastes appear to center around an eclectic mix of old school minimalist trance/house, r&b, and a variety of 80s/90s pop music from countries with questionable human rights records. It's actually really great stuff.\n\nAnd though this post comes off as judgmental, I don't mean it as such. While protective of their identity, true hipsters have become markedly more welcoming and positive. They have matured and grown into themselves with age, and they have focused on a particular identity that suits their soul. They may have found their passion or the love of their life, so their search for meaning has given way to a greater sense of comfort and quiet confidence. They know what they want and like, not for the sake of being unique, but because they enjoy it. In a world marked by division, hate, and growing fear, they stand opposed.\n\nTheir style is reaching its truest form as well, and by that I mean it is way more varied but ultimately unique and difficult to parse. There are a lot of colors, big military style boots, and formula one racing jackets, but there are also a shit load of denim, *blouses* you could only find at an estate sale, airbrushed track suits, puffy jackets, and even some velour. It's caught somewhere between the 80s and 90s and would fit in as well in a rave somewhere in East Germany as at a Boyz 2 Men concert. Whatever it is, it's visually entertaining. I just hope it stays out of the mainstream, because I think they're onto something these days. Perhaps a true hipster, with enough grit, eventually transcends the label and become an actually unique, interesting person.\n\n",

Men get obvious signs like chest pains when they get a heart attack and can immediately go to the hospital, women get flu-like symptoms and die without ever knowing their disease.

We know that cheeseburgers are fatty, so it stands to reason that fatty foods cause heart disease.\n\nHOWEVER\n\nThere is no way of knowing what your body does with the fat that you eat. The thinking was that it becomes fat in your body, but that was just a guess based on the fact that animal fats in food are the same as when they're on your thighs.\n\nAt this point many people believe that your body can't turn dietary fat into body fat. What your body turns into fat is sugars. \n\nMany people report that cutting out sugars and carbs and increasing proteins and fats causes weightloss.

"Sorry I have to admit that I didn't really look for numbers since none were cited originally but do we know the spending breakdowns for these campaigns as well as money raised? Further, the idea that the funding should be broken down along the percentage of the affected population is ridiculous. ROI and exisiting supports structures, funds, and awareness have to be taken into account so that money can be effectively mobilized most effectively tackle public health issues. It could very well be that experts who study the issue realize that women and children are groups that more aggressive targeting could help immensely while past campaigns that focused on the male side of the issue gained enough cache and social awareness to build and sustain those efforts. Again the prime example being that anyone who's seen a heart attack on prime time TV probably saw it acted out with symptoms that align with the male presentation of these issues. Structuring public health campaigns purely around demographics is a nearly disastrous idea, and while I take your point that a majority should not be underserved purely for the benefit of a minority, I see no evidence of this being the case here. The heart association builds their brand on awareness, advocacy for healthy living and an open dialogue with your health professional so your point that these campaigns are designed to prey on benevolent sexism/paternalism doesn't really ring true for my reading (doubly so in the case of this ad). It could very well be that there is a marketing element to this, that campaigns focusing on men hit a point of diminishing returns and refocusing on women not only refreshes up the public discourse regarding the issue but allows for even more funding to be brought in for everyone by way of sidestepping donation fatigue for well-trodden campaigns in addition to targeting a potentially underserved population.",

"Well, arm pain, chest pain, and shortness of breath probably cover most of the performed heart attacks in popular media today (save for the gonzo clutching chest and instantly dying gags).

My guess, along with a brief look at google scholar is that the prevailing opinion is that men are aware of heart disease being a risk or at minimum being aware of what it looks like to seek help. It makes sense then to run a campaign to educate women on the same until susan toomanycats at the end of the street has some idea. Just because they've been running campaigns for a decade does not mean one group is still not effectively (from a numbers perspective) under served. It can take a painfully long time to educate the public at large about this stuff even when it's been known to physicians and researchers fot a long long time. Eight years of effort is not even bordering on unrealistic in this regard. And unless we have some numbers showing that mens outreach has suffered then it doesn't mean this has negatively effected them either.\n\nYou know whatever your opinion ends up being let me end with this. If this is genuinely something that gets under your skin and fires up your motivation boiler, get involved.

"> To be frank, working on the assumption that money raised from one campaign focusing on a group is spent solely on that group is a very very bad assumption.\n\nIt is the assumption that's used correctly, but you missed the important part namely that it didn't matter that even if all the money raised was spent on male health the idea that the best way to raise funds is to mention women speaks to the inherent social issue within the charity industry.

Everyone (yeah not really a gender selected group) \n2. Women \n\n>I know myself and any of my colleagues would welcome that sort of drive with open arms.\n\nAdvocating programs exclusively targetting men isn't something that most charities are particularly positive towards.\nBelieve me, I tried but it comes down to it being a PR nightmare I mean if you want a particular case study look at the backlash Movember got in early years.

(and to there credit over time that barrier did get broken were raising awareness for male health issue's is considered a lot more socially acceptable these days, but to take an issue that is affecting everyone and highly specifically the male problem society isn't there yet).\n\nAHA has been dedicating programming to Men's health month for years now including live chats with doctors on social media, awareness raising campaigns, lifestyle advice tailored toward \"male interests\" and more. A month to focus exclusively on men just like you've been saying they simply don't do. That's just for the AHA as well which I thought was most relevant given the preceding conversation, but I've seen my fair share of male-targeted initiatives and research come across my desk. Maybe trying to loop into one of these programs would be a good start for you?

Hence why these campaigns have been needed. So that women can recognize the symptoms society at large has not yet understood and can seek help before it's too late. Yes, healthy living is obviously the best form of prevention, but pragmatically speaking it often takes an awful event to get most people who are at the highest risk for these issues to take it seriously and make a change. So let's make sure the awareness to identify and survive these events is out there for everyone.\n\nJust as a brief anecdote, one of the seminars I frequently sit in on asks the audience about the signs of a heart attack and time and time again across pretty diverse demographics, people can cite the symptoms that are common to men but not to women.

"What is necrotizing pneumonia? Sounds terrifying. Mind providing a little back story? How did this come about and what did the whole process look like? As a father of a six year old girl, I definitely want to know more! ",
"It’s a type of pneumonia that has a high mortality rate. She had to have 800 ml of fluid drained from her lung using a tube inserted into it thru her chest and ribs. \n\nWe think it started with the strep germ. We now know that her strep symptoms are like mine which are not typical so we never caught it. It seemed like she was just sick with a bad cold. Also my mom sensors were faulty bc I had just had a hysterectomy 2 weeks earlier and my recovery was difficult so I wasn’t as in tune as I normally am. \n\nIt turned to pneumonia fast. We also discovered she’s now allergic to amoxicillin which is the best for fighting it. The antibiotics don’t get rid of the fluid just the germ. So much fluid formed the germ could hide and so we had to drain it. \n\nOver all it was 14 days in the infectious disease ward, 9 days of a tube in her chest. We also stayed home 7 extra days until we were sure the antibiotic worked. It was a somewhat dangerous one so we had to watch her like a hawk. Also, it upset her tummy but anything with magnesium, zinc, aluminum and other things like it affected the progress so we couldn’t give her anything for her tummy. Not even peppermint. \n\nShe was looking at a very dangerous surgery bc the tube wasn’t working. So I began to pray and asked others to pray. This was a Saturday. By Monday the surgeon looked at me and said “keep praying for your miracle because you’re getting it. She’s getting better, no surgery!” So I must give all glory to God! \n\nIt was an ordeal. Honestly not sure what we would do different bc we didn’t know she had strep and I was so miserable I just didn’t see it. It was all unfortunate but it worked out thankfully. ",

"$145,000!!! Luckily we didn’t pay a dime because I had just had surgery and we met our deductible that way. Since we were in network it was all paid for. Our total medical for 2017 was upwards of $170,000. ",

He often preached that one needed to meet hatred and ignorance with compassion and understanding because he knew that by meeting hatred with hatred, it would continue the cycle and nothing would change. He was firm on his stance against racism, but he was not cruel to those who opposed him. \n\nIn short, you can acknowledge the wrongs of someone, but if you never acknowledge the good then it will only grow the divide instead of bridge it. I could go deeper with this, but unfortunately I’m not very eloquent and am starting to have trouble accurately dictating my thoughts.",

"So is Indonesia and they don't have mandatory facial wear for women. The enforcement of the hijab, while tied to Islam, is more tied to reactionary elements in Iran's non-western culture. It has little to do with an incompatibility of religions and cultures and much more to do with the motives philosophies of those in power. \n\nRun by Muslims =/= run by zealots. That's like saying having a \"Christian\" like Obama, Bush, or Trump in power is the same as having Charles Coughlin or a member of the Westborough Baptist Church in power. One's religious beliefs are not binary states.",

Following civil law/policy within a government's jurisdiction is compulsory regardless of religious proclivities. \n",

I just wanted to know the source of the claims because they sound exaggerated, and yes I do know people from Iran some still living there who themselves have refuted such reports as exaggerated, but non the less, to a proportion these reports are real. \n\nBut let me tell you one thing. What you do at the moment is branding anyone who has a doubt about something realistically doubtful, as an enemy, this isn’t really helpful for your case as many who don’t have an opinion will be averted by such hostile behavior. And secondly and most importantly: if the claims you make are false or easy to refute, your support will fall within seconds. So is it really asked too much when I ask about sources for claims made by a redditor who already choose one side, and one side only?

">The group dancing to “Happy” was arrested for “hurting public chastity,” in the words of Police Chief Hossein Sajedinia. Shortly thereafter, the six were shown on Iranian state television confessing. In September, they were sentenced to up to one year in prison and 91 lashes. Their sentences have been suspended for three years, meaning that the punishment won’t be imposed if there is no further offense during that time.\n\nThe source is Iranian judicial system. That was for dancing.\n\n>A string of acid attacks on young women in the city of Isfahan last month raised questions as to whether the attacks were a response to the women wearing “bad hijab”—the term for a woman who does not adhere to the most restricted style of the hijab—and “un-Islamic” clothing.\n\nNow, these attack were committed by private citizens, so no worries here.\n\n>Little hope for change is on the horizon. On October 8, the Iranian parliament passed a bill that gives the “morality police” a free hand. The new law, which promotes the principle of Amr be Maruf va Nahy az Monkar—“commanding the right and forbidding the wrong”—says no person or institution has the right or authority to prevent the enforcement of “commanding the right.” In other words, the law expands the authority of the morality police to dictate to women how to dress. **No matter how aggressively the police behave, they will not face prosecution, whereas those being targeted who respond with force will be punished.** This law could also potentially be perceived as a green light by “pressure groups”—citizens with radical political and religious views who exert “pressure” on fellow citizens, including beating bad hijab women—to exercise violence without fear of prosecution.\n\nPresumably, this will include corrective rape, as it has in the past.\n\nhttp://www.mei.edu/content/article/irans-headscarf-politics",
"> make a statement that they are progesive\n\nWearing the hijab as a way of supporting muslim women is not progressive at all, it's just silly virtue signalling. Having a quick look at women's rights in islamic countries, should help them understand that. The fact that they're supporting something that's forced onto women in most islamic countries is absolutely mind boggling to me.",
"Damn, calm down dude, I wasn’t trying to offend anyone whatsoever. I’m just saying that our rules of what’s allowed to be shown and what is not are just as arbitrary as in Islamic culture and that we just follow it blindly because that’s how we were raised.

When the regime hijacked the election, I was a blogger, spreading the word about the protest marches.\n\n>As a result, Iranian Revolutionary Guards abducted me at gunpoint in August that year. I was delivered to a secret prison somewhere east of Tehran, into the hands of the regime’s sadistic torturers.\n\n> My medical report documents cigarette-induced burns over my body, bruising from multiple beatings with metal flails and other objects, and slash marks and deep wounds on my legs and arms.\n\n>It also confirms I suffered injuries consistent with something known inside Iran as taaroz. For this, my interrogators used a baton, but I recall little else about the actual event because I passed out almost immediately, such was the agony. The West and international law know taaroz by another name: rape.\n\n>Cameras rolled as my interrogators asked me for a signed confession while accusing me of such activities as “working with Facebook networks.” When the camera light went off, the torture began.\n\nBut hey, that was in 2009, so it's really not that bad at all.

A mixed-race, TV-watching, weed-smoking casual sex culture. Next week they'll all want government morphine patches and virtual-reality brain chips. So what? Who cares? Just lock them up instead.",
"No one cares about facts mate... this is a bonfire!!!",
"But I thought women loved being forced to wear such things (either by force, law or society expectations)...",
"Just came here to ask this as well. I hope these women are safe.",

"I love how you assume his feelings on the matter and just parade through your nonsense.",
"Do you realize the West has been in those countries long before 1970? ",
"Not all islamic countries are backwards, i don’t think any other are really great though. But same could be said of majority black nations, you wouldn’t go saying that black people have no place in this world. Radicalism is what has no place in this world. ",
"and if enough people want it all of those are socially acceptable, help they already are on a statistical standpoints\n\n* you can't refuse service because the customers a muslim but you cant refuse service if the muslim customer is being disruptive or rude\n* What's wrong with technology and tv shows and entertainment it's not like we have state programs talking about our glorious leader trump\n* for a long time sex culture has been taboo is it really so bad to take a more casual view, after all sex and reproduction is ultimately the only thing living things exist for. for birth control : it makes 100% sense that people wouldn't want to have a child until they are ready especially if they aren't financially stable.\n* Weed has been proven to be less dangerous than cigarettes but we don't ban those.\n\nYou just don't want anything to change but change is required for life to exist\n",
"Sorry, you didn't understand the point whatsoever and are just blathering a bunch of nonsense. I'm basically talking to a chimp. No, it's not \"socially acceptable\" (meaningless phrase) if a bunch of people like it.",
"Did anything happen? ",
"how did i fail to counter your arguments?",
"Not an assumption. A tentative conclusion based on observation. If somebody can prove me wrong, I'm willing to consider their argument, but until then, my conclusion stands.",
"yes if i recall correctly those where all part of the british empire who when they left destabilized the region by deposing the democratically elected officials and replacing them with radicals as to protect their interest.",
"liberal white women!! Get it right Okchud ",
"I don't feel like going back and forth.\n\nI absolutely assure you, I have every right to refuse service to anyone I choose, for any reason I feel like. Sex isn't the only reason for human existence, and casual sex is extremely detrimental, causing an epidemic of divorce and single mothers, absolutely unheard of in history. Television is too obvious to comment on. In regards to cigarettes, two wrongs don't make a right. \n\n\"Things change\" and \"progress\" are utterly meaningless platitude phrases.",

"Yeah? How exactly does that go against what I said? \n\nWoman /u/GhostActual206 works with apparently wears it for fun, thus does have the ability to take it off = Freedom of expression. \n\nThe women of Iran and your friends do not have the ability to wear it at their discretion = repression.\n\nBlame the jailer not the jail.

"Some Arabic women are absolutely gorgeous ! it a real shame that they are forced to hide their beauty under real oppression! No freedoms to express themselves with out persecution!!!\nAnd just where are the \"white retarded liberal women\" marching for them? Oh that's right! they would be picking a fight with a muslim ideology that treats women like absolute garbage. Why pick a fight you know your going to lose due to hierarchy of the liberal victim class status!!! That's right White liberal women KNOW YOUR PLACE!! ",
"Don't feel bad he doesn't like casual sex because he can't get any.",
"What a worthless fucking post.",
"Even worse when you consider that pre-Revolution they would walk around in the latest fashions and go to the beach in skimpy bikinis. Even even worse when you consider that not even Saudi forces non-mus to cover their hair. Basically no-one wants it even in Iran, but the Regime that took power by force forces them to cover up. It's just horrible.\n\nSauce: am persian athiest.",
"that's saudi. iranian men would revolt if they had to drive women everywhere...",
"IT WAS A JOKE, CHAD!!!! \n\nMaybe it really was, Becky..",
"No, it's the right wing in every country that is the problem. \n\nAll right wing politics is the same, the only differences are in [the degree](https://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/4csxat/if_tomorrow_trump_revealed_that_his_entire/d1m45ng/) to which they are applied. \n\nThis is why liberal countries have more freedom for women (and everyone), and why regressives in every country (including liberal ones) are pushing for things that would roll back those freedoms until we're all like the most regressive countries on earth. Of course you don't realize it (which is part of why right wing politics persists, because it distorts the very understanding of reality that people have), but that's what's happening. ",
"That's because regressive politics is capable of regressing society to any arbitrary degree of primitivism. It's even capable of erasing the benefits of incredible technology. \n\nThe reason why is that, even when technology exists, you need people to operate it and choose how it is used. \n\nIf a data recording technology is developed, that could be a great thing for personal security and record keeping... but it could also be used for state surveillance and control of the population. What we do with technology is just as important as what it is, and how we choose to use it is a political decision. \n\nSome people will choose to use things (like cars) the wrong way, no matter how impressive they are. ",
"Don't even try. They won't understand context. \n\nIf I kick a dog for no reason, that's bad. But if I kick a dog that's attacking me that might be justifiable. \n\nYou take the same act, in different situations, and it's a completely different thing. \n\nBut the idea that context exists is too much for some regressives. They see only the simplest, most literal interpretation of something, and think it applies universally. \n\n\"Cloth on head = bad in once place where it is forced upon women\" = \"Cloth on head = bad in all places, including where it isn't forced on anyone\" is what they think. ",
"lmao, what is the point you're trying to make here?",
"Lol I guess that's an opinion too. I still think the majority of women there are fine as FUK\n",
"That's not an opinion. That's the actual reason they made women wear hijabs.\n\nThe lower class women were more likely to get raped than a higher class woman. Everyone knew not to mess with the higher class women.\n\nSo they forced every woman to wear one in hopes they would be too fearful to mess with the wrong woman.\n\nThat's not an opinion",
"Christtttt mate that's dark! ",
"Oh my god, you are a fucking tool.",
"Does your being a colossal douche nozzle hurt me personally? No, I do not believe it does. ",
"I meant what I said originally, don't twist my words.\n",
"Don't ask questions and expect answers. All you get is downvotes. "

"Dope",
"Kehinde Wiley is an amazing artist. Here's a piece of his in the Philbrook in Tulsa, OK. It's about 10 feet tall and blows everything else in the room away. \n\n[Equestrian Portrait of Philip IV](https://imgur.com/gallery/ZEz70)",
"It bugs me that one eye is a different shade than the other and that there's only a couple varieties of leaves but significantly more types of flowers. I'm fairly certain that that the dominant leaf patter matches none of the flowers in real life",
"You see those plants? That's weed.",
"I like all the different flowers but all I can think is that they are some giant ass hands ",
"Wow omg this is the one of the best portraits I’ve ever seen. ",
"> Wiley has included flowers in the background (another nod to historical portraiture) to reference elements of the president’s personal history, including jasmine for Hawaii, African blue lilies for his father’s Kenyan heritage, and chrysanthemums, which are the official flower of Chicago. \n\nThe flowers have some meaning, which is nice. ",
"Many US Presidents have multiple portraits done, they can still have a redo. ",
"Was expecting him to disappear into the foliage like Homer in Simpsons.",
"\"I dont know what to do with my hands\"",
"I hope he kept the receipt",
"Because they're eleven inches long apparently",
"This is so awesome, brings tears to my eyes!",
"Reminds me of this gif: https://giphy.com/gifs/homer-simpson-the-simpsons-bush-4pMX5rJ4PYAEM",
"Just another bad decision to add to the list. ",
"i'm kind of shocked with how many negative comments there are about this painting, considering Kehinde Wiley is an incredibly talented and widely-respected portrait painter. He's really nice to other artists and fans too. Looking carefully, there's a lot of symbolism and culture included in the composition. That's not to be ignored.\n\n For the folks being nitpicky about realism, remember this was not meant to be a hyper-realistic portrait. That's part of Wiley's bold and vibrant style, inventing the mood and emotion through color, tone, light, and arrangement. If he wanted to do hyper-realism, he'd have taken a picture instead. ",
"Giant ass-hands",
"You can throw adjectives at it all you want, that thing is fugly.",
"My grip with this is that it follows the stupid portrait in the leaves trend that every uber driver and hipster I know has right now.\n\nI know that’s not the inspiration for the photo at all but it just looks so tacky. Plus the hands and feet don’t seem to be in the correct proportions. The whole thing looks tacky and I don’t care what art critics say right this hot second this looks terrible. ",
"Very professional \n\n/s",
"Yep, Art and Criticism go hand and hand since the dawn of art. If people are having a negative reaction there is usually a reason why. ",
"Making your reddit account might have been the first, Trumpanzee!",
".",
"I kinda like that. :)",
"Called it! https://reddit.com/r/gifs/comments/7x4noe/homer_simpson_disappearing_in_obamas_smithsonian/",
"The Poison Ivy speaks for itself",
"Can you give an example of a 'portrait in the leaves'? I have no idea what you're talking about and I'd like to think I'm up to date with current art trends...",
"Ok um I’m probably terrible at describing this but are you familiar with a living wall? It’s essentially a regular wall but it’s overgrown with plants. It’s very trendy to take a headshot for a profile photo with this for a background photo for a dating profile or an Uber driver profile photo.\n\nIt’s not like a viral trend but it’s one of those hipster things that a lot of people.",
"That would be boring. America is about progress and moving forward. It's a nation about trying new things. Obama knew that, so he mixed the conventional and unconventional with his portrait. It's honestly not even that weird, it just has a more original background.",
"Kehinde Wiley is great. His portrait series would take young black people from poor neighborhoods, the kind of people that society tries to demean and ignore, and make incredible portraits of them. The portraits would be based off famous historical portraits. [Here's a recreation of Napoleon's famous portrait.](https://zodml.org/sites/default/files/styles/juicebox_medium/public/kehinde-wiley-gallery-a1.png?itok=jr40Voo4) I love the message it sends, of these young men and women who have been rejected by society at large being depicted as powerful and regal.",

I mean you don't have to like his style, but I don't think it's fair to say it's jumping on a trend when it's entirely consistent with his body of work over the years. ",
"Good bot",
"No I totally understand that this is the artists style I’m just saying it’s so similar to this larger trend that it comes across as tacky even if that’s not the intent.\n\nFor what it’s worth I think the portrait of Michelle is much better.",
"nope",
"If it’s academic criticism, it’s because the critic wants to have a discussion about what’s going on about the work, even if the critic doesn’t like the work. \n\nFor most everyone else, the reason is about as deep as swiping left on Tinder.",
