“It’s time to suck less. The users who left you are still waiting.”

Nothing. Just walk away. I don’t understand why people would willingly engage in completely pointless arguments at all… it’s a huge part of why I left Facebook and Reddit and come here now instead. People on there literally just to argue and pick fights with other people.

I don’t care if it’s my dad, my neighbour, or an old friend from school … if they believe that, they believe that, and nothing I can say is going to change their mind - and it’s not my place to change their mind.

If my son said that to me, yes, it is my place to make sure he is properly educated, so we’d go through some Wikipedia articles and/or watch a couple documentaries about it, so people who understand all of it a hell of a lot better than I do can explain it to him properly. I am not a climate scientist.

I’ve never had them insist that I can recall, but I do remember reading, I believe in the TSA docs, that any devices are supposed to be powered on and able to be demonstrated to be working or something to that effect … I guess to make sure it’s not just a phone-shaped bomb or whatever.
