I will give the boring answer: no.

If/when I share that, the recipient is/will-be someone I really, really want to impress and will be a very receptive, intended audience that I would never not be fully engaged with, to then notice it wasn't them.

RM is always right. ;)

Would get adblock if I were you.

Competitors for Adblock on Firefox include Adblock Plus and uBlocker Origin

If you're very concerned with absolute privacy etc, the latter 2 have open source code, with the latter being more open about who owns them etc. Both ask to access more of your data and history than Adblock does, but are open about the coding so... Idk. I trust Adblock personally, they ask to see what's on the page, but based on what they're not asking it appears they don't 'maintain' your data throughout your browsing session. The other 2 maitnain a memory, but Adblock has the best whitelisting function anyway so IDK what they want.

I also highly recommend the Add-ons 'HTTPS Everywhere' and 'Privacy Badger' by the same foundation that seeks to make privacy easily accessible to the average non-technical-language-fluent Internet user. Just get them, never turn them off and Badger adapts to Cookies that track you 3 times, by banning them from the fourth onwards. Sometimes you will need to tweak it (runs on a 'traffic light' system, red is completely stopping the cookie and green is always allowing it fully while orange bans 'tracking' elements' of the cookie but lets it garner data from you otherwise).

On DART, for instance, you should redlight the main 'yandex' tracking cookie. It forms an advertising profile for you that the Russian company can use later, it's possible it 'came with' the template that Mike got hold of and that may be why it was free.

As for Firefox itself, I recommend selecting 'strict' in the Cookie settings. 

Here is where to go for a completely safe (run by Mozilla itself) custom theme maker: https://color.firefox.com/

Note that 'theme' in firefox applies very much to the 'up top' stuff. You can't so easily make the theme of new tabs etc alter, if at all. That requires add-ons that may threaten your privacy.

I have blocked you on moral grounds. I don't want replies from a supporter of merciless tyranny. Why not go type such shit from a Chinese IP? See how they like your freedom of speech then. Even though it's pro-China, you'll end up very restricted. Sweet blissful irony...

The meaning of life is to change actively such that other things alter due to your changing. 

This is the defining feature of the living that separates them from non-sentient objects. When entities lacking life 'change' it is done to them, passively and their changes are part of a chain. When entities possessing life 'change', they both have it done to them passively and change actively, whether it's their position, level of oxygen inside them etc. They make changes occur, that then affect living beings in a way that they may change or give into happening, as well as affecting beings completely devoid of signs of life such that they are altered permanently until other things act upon them due to their changes.

If you created a reality with only non-living entities, you would see over time it becomes a stagnant process after the changes cancel each other out eventually. This stasis never comes while life is present; they offset in their favour.

I think you meant 'nobody' when you said 'anyone' but that's not entirely true...

Unwise investment, brother. ;)

you live in an imaginary world.

Do you know how they treated and treat the Muslims in their nations to achieve this 'win' you speak of?

More Socialism inherently entails more government and beaurecracy, it's about keeping the parts compartmentalised and each holding the other accountable that is how corruption is rooted out in social democracies.

Neither of which are Socialist... Britain was Capitalist as all hell back then so I have no idea what you are getting at.

What you just said made no grammatical sense.

For someone who calls themselves a hater of tyranny, for you to back China up is morally reprehensive and absurd all at once. China is what happens when corruption is simply embraced. They don't even deny it, they genuinely embrace how corrupt and oppressive they are over their people and their people respect it too. It's sad, pathetic and will eventually lead to its demise as is already happening in Hong Kong.

It means either USSR will happen again or maybe they'll get someone like Warren in, who will make it into a social democracy like the rest of the developed world.

which part?

Because people are understanding how bullshit it is.

Nothing more, nothing less.

I never understood that nuance... The Left-Wing consistently based their policy on stats and reasoning. The Right-Wing usually revolve around 'absolute morals' that they assign to a religious authority to then call everyone who opposes it 'evil', no matter how good the opposition's reasoning is.

To add to their similarity, Taoism's original name was Daoism. 

Both views on reality revolve around the idea that questioning God's motive is a zero-sum game since we're not God but are inside the simulation/creation. Both hold morality to be nothing more than a natural processed that we evolved over time. What exactly differentiates one from the other, except that one originated in China and the other has ambiguous origin?

Don't get rid of religion forums, don't relegate them, promote them.

You can structure your twisting of the truth any way you want, in the end it's about pleasure to the voters' eyes and minds.

Please change my vote on debate to this:

Thett3 has 3 votes, not 4.

GP has 3 votes, not 2.

Speedrace was correct to do what he did. 

There are white citizens of African nations who would argue they feel entirely Kenyan, Nigerian, South African etc.

This is the inverse of advertising, you should be careful or it looks like you're defaming them in favour of a competitor.

I actually think that Christen was overall trolling. 80% of what he quoted was out-of-context word-twisting. He even quoted me when I was literally defending Bsh1, by using what I said others were saying about Bsh1 as something I attacked Bsh1 with (the scumbag comment).

Concession

Blamonkey has displayed an understanding of how to implement it but tends to simply start off doing it and then stick to one angle that's easier to prove, not pressuring the opponent to properly have to give in.

No such thing. There's also no such thing as the smartest argument I've ever heard, out of context.

It is always context based. The single most intelligent debating technique and thus argument to form is one that hurts you in some way while making the other side even more hurt by it. At the moment I am debating someone using such a technique against me: https://www.debateart.com/debates/1580/does-religiosity-make-people-dumb but they are going to see that I know how to counter this strategy quite well. The idea is that you admit something that hurts one side of your burden of proof to then force the opponent to support the other way you support your side, in order to counter your self-hurting one. I call it 'Burden-of-Proof sandwiching' and basically am the only user of this website so far who proficiently does it. It does lose you debates at times to use it, because many voters will think you lost due to the sacrifice to your side that you made, but overall it's flawless so long as the voters catch on and you put a lot of effort into making it crystal clear. I have used it against MagicAintReal and am the only user he ever vs'd on here whom he himself admitted was proficient at debating, afterwards. 

You can't always do this. It only works when the debate is angled in a way where the proof for one side is reliant on 'facts' as opposed to reasoning. What you need to do is say 'yes, these facts are valid but they mean this instead.' That's the fundamental concept behind BoP sandwiching.

I'll use a guest account. Discord is demanding my phone number and I'm not really ok with it. Tell me around what time to look at the server.

In if this somehow is arranged properly so we're all on at once... otherwise how can we play?

I was one of those who asked for nuance to be applied. I also remember what I was like at 16. I know that PressF4Respect is not fully emotionally mature yet. That doesn't mean much. In many social democracies, 16 year olds can fuck, even drink wine and beer etc. The main reason why it was wrong is what I agree with Coal on; on top of Bsh1 being a proper adult vs a teenager who was almost turning 17, Bsh1 was the chief moderator and PressF4 would be scared to say anything back or report it to anyone had he felt violated by it.

An almost 17-year-old may be immature with how they handle their anger, lust etc. but they are old enough to be fully cogent of their feelings of being violated, hurt etc. PressF4 explicitly said many times that he didn't give a shit about the comment. He is not too young to know what he feels or 'consent' to a comment online. 16-17 isn't the same as 13-14, if you don't see the difference then how the fuck can you see a difference between 16-17 to 18-19? There is actually more difference psychologically between a 8-9 age gap than there is between a 31-34 age gap, don't you agree? Maybe they're equal but I'd actually say more. The point I'm making is that it is indeed nuanced, especially with comments made online and the offence taken. PressF4Respect is absolutely old enough to know what he felt at the receiving end. It's true that Bsh1 was in such a powerful position that had PressF4 felt violated, he would have been afraid and felt he had no one to turn to and for that reason as well as past mishaps, I did support Bsh1 apologising and stepping down. The degree of wrongness is where I argue nuance.

Supadudz

Impersonating a real life personality that is famous can damage their reputation and make their manager/publicist sue this website:

This is not okay.

Yes, it is the same disorder for people of higher IQ.

No. Talk with respect to your fellow darter or get off the site. Simple.

Ramshutu agreed with me.

All member lose when killed, this will be a grudge match.

There is no strategy involved other than aiming to joint win maybe.

Virtuoso

Dr. Franklin

Speedrace

I will think about the rest.

You can honestly fuck off. You do not know how correct I am on the matter. Virtuoso knows though and Ramshutu is simply playing for short-term gain.

Of course I don't. You are a faceless man with no digital footprint whatsoever.

Tell me what you are afraid of. Tell me what correspondance you are speaking of. If you really are so brave, reveal the correspondance for me, that way I won't have revealed anything more than you're comfortable with in your bubble of lies.

As you can see everyone, this permission was pseudo-given and I was wise to not take heed. Those who do not believe in the possibility of ramshutu being a very abusive multi-accounter of CD who has left intentional breadcrumbs to toy with me there in the past (but stopped the moment I made it clear I knew who he was), are free to PM and chat.

You are also free to do your own research. You are also free to know nothing. One may wonder why he is so afraid of me revealing what I know about him. It is okay, he has nothing to worry about. He is going to speak to me with respect from now on and stop playing the victim, when he isn't one.

You just gave me permission to reveal things about you that I don't want to reveal. It involves revealing your face and voice, among other things to explain the extremely blatant link between you and quantumhead. I am not threatening anything, I am showing restraint in the face of permission to expose and provocation to lash out. Those who want to know can PM me and have a long chat about you with me if they please.

You have the crown, I have the power. You can keep calling my bluff all day, it will involve a lot of twisting and turning.

For now, there is no reason to dig into how I know you are quantumhead or what you do across your alts. I have been involved in a series of drama and it is time to settle down until such a time as drama is required again. Those who care to know can PM me. Virt knows more than most here, Type1 knows the most, on CD, because he and I have found a common enemy in Ramshutu there. Times change, people learn and you can masquerade as you please.

It is better for me to not bother exposing anything for now. You think I will just show PMs and you downvoting. You will laugh it off and ridicule me more. For this entire thread so far, you have lived up to being the cynical, unscrupulous bully of me that I described. You even have the gall to play the fucking victim, it's sickening. I do not care to then play into your narrative and expose what will look like me framing you. You do you, it doesn't matter to me so long as you understand that your images and choice of words should not attack me on here, or anyone else for that matter. Leave me in peace and I will leave you in peace.

What would?

go somewhere you are needed supadudz, supporting a cyberbully isn't your forte.

I am not. He knows exactly how I know it and is playing around rules here that will prevent me proving it.
