First of all, I have more in common with atheists than religious people, so my intention isn't to come here and attack, I just want to hear your opinions. Maybe I'm wrong, I'd like to hear from you if I am. I'm just expressing here my perception of the movement and not actually what I consider to be facts.

My issue with atheism is that I think it establishes the lack of a God or gods as the truth. I do agree that the concept of a God is hard to believe logically, specially with all the incoherent arguments that religions have had in the past. But saying that there's no god with certainty is something I'm just not comfortable with. Science has taught us that being wrong is part of the process of progress. We're constantly learning things we didn't know about, confirming theories that seemed insane in their time. I feel like being open to the possibilities is a healthier mindset, as we barely understand reality.

In general, atheism feels too close minded, too attached to the current facts, which will probably be obsolete in a few centuries. I do agree with logical and rational thinking, but part of that is accepting how little we really know about reality, how what we considered truth in the past was wrong or more complex than we expected

I usually don't believe there is a god when the argument comes from religious people, because they have no evidence, but they could be right by chance.

Any recommended hardware device to ensure that I won't need to transcode in order to burn ASS and PGS subtitles?

Right now I have a FireTV but it only direct plays SRT.

If people defend themselves against abuse, they go to jail.

If they don't, they go to jail.

I'm an engineers who works with engineers. There are no rules. You have the dumb smoothtalkers and the smart... dumbtalkers.

It's pretty entertaining seeing management eat the bullshit some engineers give them. It's a crime for a manager not to be technical or at least have understanding of what is going on. If you want to see an engineer fucking a manager, put a manager who doesn't know shit about engineering.

Oh wow, so they reward you for keeping up the lies as long as possible. Nice.

"threaten to blackmail" is such a funny expression, that threat is literally blackmail already.

Who gives a fuck about Google? They pull the same shit whenever they get the chance.

We need to stop blaming ourselves. I'm tired of feeling like shit about this.

This isn't on us, this is 100% on lawmakers, they are the ones who should be fixing these issues. Why the fuck is this my responsibility. I'm paying them with my taxes to solve problems, not to tell me I'm the problem.

It's a comic strip, nobody is looking for historical accuracy here. The interaction is funny, that's it.

Can they scream? If not, can we make that happen?

It's a good tip, but shitty.

This just happened to me in the guest bathroom of someone I barely knew. The bathroom was meters away from the meeting.

Never. Again.

Damn. She scammed the scammers to scam the dummies.

Why do you care what other instances think about it? I'm honestly asking and expecting an answer here. This isn't a sassy question.

You built a wall and now you're asking people outside of that wall what it feels for you to leave. Well, I'd care if I could see what's inside the wall, but I can't. I tried subscribing and it was impossible.

So why do you care what people outside of your wall think? Again, I expect an answer here.

I can 100% remember the cringe moments of others, and let me tell you, they affect me as much as my own.

Still remember that time a coworker invited a bunch of people to a talk to show them a cool tech he developed. When he was done, nobody clapped and everyone started basically insinuating that it was useless while he was still standing in front of everyone.

It was pretty painful to watch.
