It depends on the reference data, case companies are of course good at measuring these things given everything that needs to match up when building a PC to begin with. Therefore I …

BF2 was great, BF3 was definitely better, not that there was anything at fault of BF2. I disagree with Fortnite and PUBG, whilst PUBG is a little clunky it did usher in a completel…

Nobody is saying it is okay.

I feel like its human psychology that as we get exposed to the world and we learn it, we feel like we form an understanding of the world around us at a sufficient level to survive …

Coming from Australia where current temperatures in London are normal summer temperatures here, it amazes me there's such push back in using air conditioning. I appreciate there ar…

I like how the article points out that it's the small bits of overconsumption (e.g. Nutella) each day that amount to obesity. Add in less physical activity and eating less fibrous …

Also the fact that in one of the examples the individual simply ate no vegetables.

That's right. Further the SBS was introduced to allow more ethnic broadcasting of content not in English following the war in around 1970. Not a bad approach

Yet I can watch the world cup and the tour de france for free in Australia from SBS on TV and streamed online. So much greediness

It could be, but it also might not be? Most things have second order effects, having a consistent sleep schedule may allow more healthier second order effects based on a more regul…

Well in another example, I might put my arm out of the window and feel the wind moving fast on my arm and wrongly assume my car is going fast when it is simply windy and I am stati…

People don't actually think that's the case. However it is obviously an age in which we believe kids can start to have more agency over their own lives and make bigger decisions be…

Lets say that was true legally, its certainly frowned upon and you will be shamed for being an adult blatantly filming underage girls on a train without their permission or reason.…

Well your ability and areas you can shame people might be limited until you're of age. I'm not asking "what do we do" but that plenty of people write articles poking holes in curre…

You don't need to convince me, my point was that they can have them but with limited capabilities, like only being able to SMS and call.

My question to these sorts of articles is, okay so what do we do then? What do we do when we know that social media it not healthy for kids. Its not good for their attention spans …

Well that's the question isn't it, agency but to what extent. It makes sense to allow teenagers to have more agency over themselves than a 10 year old, but clearly there is an argu…

I couldn't agree with you more

Is the alternative to then let goods be stolen, have shops lock products away and consume police resources trying to track people down that they have average footage of? We can thi…
