There really is an xkcd for everything 😂
Sound more like you learned the hard way what "abusing the system" mean.
But, think about the capital...
Your argument cannot be considered as an "reductio ad absurdum”, as it didn't show any absurdity in your opponent arguments. Your argument could be considered as either an "argumentum ad lapidem" (dismissing a claim as absurd without demonstrating proof for its absurdity), but more realistically it is indeed a strawman, as you try exaggerate you opponent argument in order to weaken it (avoid because Israeli != avoid because of possible link to Israeli intelligence ties).
Still, you are right to doubt some of your opponent proofs. I too have my doubt on that claim, but don't have the time right now to fact check it.
Feel free to link your own research here, if you find more reliable sources.
Idk, I still see 256GB Emtec ones for 10€ in my local supermarket.
That a shitty analogy... But a good one.
You are right. But I didn't mean that as "doing one thing well", but rather "focussing on a long term objective".
Depends on the juridictions. Some countries make pedaling mandatory (mine does), other don't.
Wouldn't say GOAT, but I sure try to do my work the best I can.
France has a lot of spy satellites. Part of why they didn't follow the US in Irak.
Hi friends,
There was many threads lately on that topic, and despite attempts at making all those threads follow the community rules, looks like it will be better to make a megathread in order to avoid drowning other topics under the constant updates about this.
You find bellow multiple sections, containing as much info as possible on every aspect of this topic, including the latest news (as well as older ones), and how to participate in fighting it (if you wish to).
The moderation, even if we do have our own personal opinion on the topic, will try to stay as neutral as possible, which mean all opinion (for or against) are welcome, as long as it respect the rules, especially rule 2.
As a special exception to rule 4, memes are welcome in the comment section, as I saw some good ones in various other topics, as soon as they respect rule 2.

Because heat diffuse at a limited rate. More heat won't magically make it faster.
Increasing the heat will continue cooking an already heat soaked layer, unable to radiate that heat to the inner layer fast enough.
At best you'll get an overcooked exterior, at worst a carbonized one. In both case, the inner layer will be barely warm, and raw, of course.
