They dont really believe it, its a lie. They are a liar.

Easy solution, should make everyone happy:

We know the current price of child care at the current rate. We can extrapolate that out for the next 50 years and beyond.

If the price goes above that at time in the next 50-100 years, Western Bulldogs will pay the difference on behalf of parent.

WB is sure it'll lower fees, so its 0 risk to them right?

Mechanical pencils do a better job of both those things.

You're not wrong. As soon as you lose one "round", the entire pencil stops working.

I have trained for this

I have no issue with tinkering, my issue is more when tinkering gets turned around into advice.

I think I would be happier if these communities/subreddits were a bit more explicit about "We are amateurs, for actual advice, go to X, Y, Z".

As if that team wouldnt queue exclusively on cs_office.

Gives me a mirrors edge vibe.

Do you mean like pickup lines? If so, yeah, I dont think those are necessary anymore. But that said, I haven't dated in years, so what would I know :/

Flirting is how you build connection? Perhaps we have different ideas on what flirting is, but to me, its the things you do to build a connection (talking, joking, hanging out, etc). So if you dont do those things, you'll not build a connection.

Yes, some people absolutely take things way too far, and often unproductively.

Like the person who was trying to disable websockets. Or the people who will shun signal, but jump directly on the flavour of the month signal clone, which might be completely backdoored.

If you dont know what you are doing, randomly turning things on and off at best does nothing, at worst makes you even more signaturable/trackable.

Its good to educate yourself on various protections, but unfortunately, it requires a lot of careful research and understanding.

Not necessarily. Nuclear weapons generally require fairly precise timing in order to go critical and properly explode.

If the timing is off, it'll still spread nuclear material around, but it won't make the large mushroom cloud style explosion.
