An electronic calculating device is an electronic calculating device.

I've had a Casio calculator for years and years and years. 30 or more.

And the battery is still the original.

How long do they last?

As I've continued to do coursework in college, I've noticed one thing: I've yet to use the calculator I bought. It just sits there on a desk in my dorm room, only to be moved when I do the dusting.

When it comes to all the math I've needed in my classes, I just open an extra tab and use Google's calculator, or sometimes, I use certain websites for more complex mathematics.

Out of curiosity, how many of you, when working for your jobs or doing assignments in school, use a physical calculator? And how many use Google or a website? Which do you consider better and why?

Typical ignorant childish retort. Denialist. Dunning Kruger effect poster child. You’re the racist, child. 

No such thing as a white supremacist,

but there sure as 💩 are black supremacists!!!! 

Welcome to the Democratic America backed by Establishment Republicans around the nation. Anything for political power. No wonder Americans don’t trust the election process

This pretty much describes all news reported by human beings

Correct. One day I hope to start a news company that randomly picks articles to write using a random number generator and then have them just dryly state the facts in an unbiased way.  Maybe give full context to things. So just do an aggressive deep dive into every event reported and only wait until after like 3 months of investigation to report the findings

My definition of fake news would be any source of news that cherry picks stories and/or talks about stories with presuppositions using their own world view, any source that has any bias as opposed to just spouting dry facts without manipulating photos or using sound bites without full context. I would also consider a source fake news if they only touch the surface of a news story and don't do a deep dive as it risks people not understanding what they are reporting fully. Any source that has ever used a clock bait title I would throw in this bag. Any source that runs stories manipulating scientific fact like "study proves eggs are healthy" when it was a study that showed people who generally eat eggs are less likely to get diabetes for example.

Nah, I take it back. Your mamma must be hugely disappointed in you. Name calling little childish whore that you are. 

For a lot of people, politics began in 2016 and ended with Trump losing in 2020.

The senate is more than enough proof of that. I’ve seen a lot of rage directed towards Trump so hopefully his spell is finally breaking. It’s time to move on from him!

Again you don't seem to be able to see the difference between attacking what someone says and attacking them personally . That's all peace out. 

Most people are not capable of discerning the difference, and he is the poster child of such an individual.

Trump will tear DeSantis apart and go third party if DeSantis gets the nomination. You guys are screwed.

The Trumpiest candidates are losing.

That's the excuse MSNBC gave for firing her, that she was inciting a rebellion.

MSNBC top management is too much of a chickenshit to back up her anti- whitism statements like a sensible race hustling network should have done.

MSNBC will be responsible for the USA turning into a Fascist state for refusing to do so

I have never seen someone insinuate that the past is all qualia before. I am not positing a specific DNA sequence that belonged to Socrates, only stating that the most logical (99.9999% certainty!) conclusion is that he had one.

it's difficult to imagine what enhanced utility this belief might yield if considered "fact" instead of merely "opinion"

No, you are telling us that objective facts cannot be known, and at the same time telling us you know all about objective facts. 

i don't know any "objective facts" (and i have never claimed to know any "objective facts")

but i do know the definition of "objective fact"

and i know that the definition is logically-incoherent

everything you know is "map"

therefore, you cannot know "objective facts"

If you can't know objective facts then why are you telling us about objective facts

i'm pointing out to you that your definition of "objective fact" is logically-incoherent (as it relates to human knowledge)

OPINION must be unfalsifiable, personal, experiential, GNOSTIC, qualitative (and emotionally meaningful) (aka NOT fact) QUALIA

Is this just your opinion, or is it a fact?

it is a coherent definition

i'm more than happy to consider your personally preferred alternative

facts must be verifiable, quantifiable, empirically demonstrable and or logically-necessary

Please verify, quantify, and demonstrate why this is a factual statement.

it is logically-necessary

I can give you some of it

There is no official GOP PLATFORM right now.

Explain how wondering out loud why the president has not produced a birth certificate is the same exact thing as accusing the president of being born overseas? If anything it helps prove the president is an American citizen and shuts the doubters up.

Why would wanting to end untrue conspiracy theories make somebody a liar? 

• No, we mean Republican's lie....and we think your opinions are whack job conspiracies...big difference.
  

Thett just made a thread about apparent lie accusations thrown at a Republican made ad campaign. Do you care to address his claims and stand behind this statement you are quoted as saying?

What is the current Republican Platform? Oh yeah, I forgot, you don't have one.  

I can give you some of it

• Border security, Republicans are against open borders.
  
• Republicans believe that Americans should have guns to protect themselves
  
• Republicans are pro securing elections as to prevent frauds and the integrity of the process
  
• Republicans want to get struggling mother's to be help so they don't feel forced to murder their unborn children
  
• Republicans are against making race based selections in hiring practices and think merit is what matters
  

I'll never forget the day the Washington Post, in a legit article, said the GOP was becoming a Russian asset:

https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/plum-line/wp/2018/07/20/the-entire-republican-party-is-becoming-a-russian-asset/

If that isn't "lying to win elections" then I have no idea what is.

Let's face it, extreme Republicanism is still all about the fear of change from a "white" dominated Christian society to a multicultural egalitarian society.

Ah. Yes. Those extreme Republicans and their freeing of the slaves and giving women the right to vote and opposition to Jim Crow laws and fighting for desegregation in schools and society at large and their Civil War with the Confederates.

I can't imagine why Democrats would despise them.

So here is an example of him not saying it is fake.

Right, and you’re probably not a child molester, I mean maybe you are but maybe you’re not. It’s impossible to know.

He was playing to racist tropes that a black man can’t be a legitimate President, which is what many racists in America wanted to believe.

This is where a lot of the left is dishonest. For example they will say Trump made that claim, but he really just said Obama should be releasing his birth certificate to stop people from questioning it. 

This is why you have nonsense terms like "mostly true" or "partly true" on "fact check" sites.

An actual fact checking site would have 2 and ONLY 2 ways to describe a fact.

There have been studies on this and contrary to popular opinion, even first time politicians generally stay true to the platform they set when they campaign.

When Democrats say that Republicans lie they usually mean "we don't like that opinion so it is a lie"

everything you know is "map"

therefore, you cannot know "objective facts"

facts must be verifiable, quantifiable, empirically demonstrable and or logically-necessary

REAL-TRUE-FACTS must be empirically demonstrable and or logically-necessary (and emotionally meaningless) (aka NOT opinion) QUANTA

OPINION must be unfalsifiable, personal, experiential, GNOSTIC, qualitative (and emotionally meaningful) (aka NOT fact) QUALIA

Cheer up. Putin may still decide to start a nuclear war and prevent that outcome.

GA - Walker (R) vs Warnock (D) —> GOP Pickup

That would be an embarrassment to the country 

Lol I would love to hear your predictions and your reasoning behind them

PA - Parnell vs Fetterman —> GOP Pickup

Maybe you could try not reading the threads you don't want to read.

I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure the site isn't going to start censuring threads based on whether you like them or not. 

Threads like “Republican Senate candidate in Nevada is literally a bastard” and “There is no compromising with MAGA Republicans. They are today’s slave holders” are of zero value. It’s true that I don’t have to read them, but since they are crowding out everything else I increasingly find myself not reading anything on this site at all. I seriously doubt I’m alone. If the owner and mods of this site are okay with that it is what it is, but if I were in charge I would try to clean it up a little  

The politics section is completely unusable right now, it’s pure low effort spam from IWantRooseveltAgain and Greyparrot. I’m also not a fan of Oragami basically copy pasting MSNBC but he doesn’t do it as much as these two

Greyparrot sorry buddy <3 u but the low effort threads are a problem

Oh, you mean we could stop the global change in demographics if we’d just build a wall and hang a big sign on it that says no brown people allowed?  The Trumper mentality is just stupid as shit, he dumbed down the Republican party so badly you whack jobs don’t have a clue what you are even talking about.  

 

Sorry kiddie, you can’t stop the world from changing, you can stomp your feet and throw a tantrum all you want, but the world isn’t going to listen.  You are just going to have to adapt, that or you and your walnut sized brain will go extinct. 

Well now that you mention it, I do believe that we (being a First World country) can put up a wall, defend our borders, and choose who we let in.

We have no need to stop the world from changing.

Are you really going to try to sell racism to me?  Save it, this is no Klan meeting, I’m one of those bad people that talk about racism like it’s a bad thing, that’s not going to change

You really aren’t worth talking to. Somehow you are more belligerent and less intelligent than that Roosevelt buffoon. The slightest bit of pushback and you descend into intelligible tirade

Can you define just what “strong and active resistance” to demographic change is, is it violence against ‘others”, is it voter suppression, is it a race war, how exactly do you actively resist demographic change? 

You misread what I said. The strong resistance against trajectory is Congress’ refusal to lower immigration quotas or increase qualifications to let people in (ie. Public charge rule)

Most of us only know the term because of the slogan chanted in Charlottesville, and that got big time press coverage,

And once again, that only got attention because of lefties. Until “January 6th”, they were still constantly referencing the Charlottesville protest as some supposed representation of Republicans when it was just a few thousand wackos. Biden said he ran for president because of that little protest. The entire reason we know of any of that is because of left-wing exaggeration and fear mongering.

I don’t know I’d call it “celebrated”, it’s certainly “embraced” by the Democratic Party, as it should be.

It is something that can be changed if we want to. Why must we embrace it if demographic change can be reversed?

Is it something worth embracing? Sure, be pleasant to people already here, but there is no need to embrace the idea of further demographic shift in the future when it’s not inevitable.

And when diversity is treated like an undeniable good by all lefties despite evidence to the contrary and the countless news articles bashing anything or place not sufficiently diverse (non-white), I would call it celebrating

The Republican party made resistance and resentment of those demographic change into tactics, exploited fear and resentment, and turned it all into White Identity politics

You couldn’t be more incorrect. The Democrats have been the party of resentment: it is a coalition of the fringes that hate white people and Christians. How else do you have Muslim’s teaming up with feminists? It’s hatred. And Whites are objectively the group with the least identification with their race and the only reason it is increasing is because they are being attacked and demonized for being white. Most Republicans have and still want raceblindness but you idiots threw it away for “equity” and trashing their ancestors

but in the process, it became polarizing. 

What process... the theft of millions of dollars by the founders of BLM? I would be pretty polarized too if I donated to them. 

Replacement theory attributes global demographic changes to a Jewish conspiracy, 

Not necessarily. It just states that it is happening and there is intent behind it. There doesn’t have to be a specific or even a single group behind it. It is mainly a system that has been on auto-pilot with strong and active resistance against any change in trajectory. That’s pretty much undeniable at this point

The fact that we both even know what replacement theory is speaks to the fact that these supremacists are overrepresented in politics

That’s a term used by lefties far more often than anyone even remotely right-wing.

Noticing the fact that there is a changing demography is something that is both simultaneously celebrated by democrats

and also used as a political attack against anyone that mentions it is happening, labeling them “replacement theorists” or any combination of other such insults
