Originally when i started working on vintologi i put it in the "religion" category since at time it was not based on good evidence. Over time however vintologi has become more scientific and categorizing it as a religion is becoming increasingly misleading. We need a category for belief...

Why the government cannot be too big The bigger the government the more there will be for government official to manage. There are too many decisions to make which requires a huge bureaucracy. Even if the people highest up in the hierarchy are good, there will still be a lot of problems further...

The mythical good psychiatrist The mental-health laws are so bad you as a psychiatrist cannot be good to people without constantly breaking the law (you would probably lose your job quickly) thus you end up with people who constantly harm their patients and violate them in all sorts of ways.

Does the wavefunction actually collapse? It is sometimes claimed that the many-worlds interpretation would resolve the measurement problem without adding anything to the schrödinger equation but that does not seem to actually be the case https://arxiv.org/pdf/1511.08881.pdf

Charged 3000$ Of course this was without court-order. Skorkabian wrote: I can confirm, I was suicidal, talked down by family, voluntarily checked into a psych ward and held 3 nights, with basically no agency while inside. Total cost was $3,000. If you want some tales from it, we had the...

Pressured into signing himself/herself in at 15 Psych-wards often use intimidation to get people to agree to treatment without having to formally do forced treatments. Thus a lot of 'voluntary' treatments are not really volultary. Even_Set wrote: when i was 15 years old my mom took me to a...

Charged 8600$ In most US states they can hold you for 72 hours without it even going to trail and then you will get billed for it. Throwaway_bcrules wrote: I was living in Cleveland ohio when the police and EMS showed up and basically kidnapped me because someone called 911 and said I was...

Will there be a 3080 super? Nvidia will still lose out cutting down GA-102 dies to use for the 3080 when they could sell as something way better such as a 3080 super. Best case scenario is them offering a variant with 20GiB Vram and more cores than the 3080. But there hasn't really been any...

3070ti offers terrible value No surprise here. Doesn't really have any redeeming qualities besides the small form-factor and the fact that other cards are hard to get.

SRS & quality of life The following study found SRS to cause a temporary improvement of quality of life https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5440516/ It is worth nothing that generally as people age their quality of life goes down https://twitter.com/DegenRolf/status/1384013965500436482

Female supremacism Females are simply more valuable in a modern society, males are becoming largely obsolete due to technology.

AoC debate on discord This debate was held between me and one individual interested in joining the politburo for the transmaxxing discord

Child-discardance When you engage in crude traditional breeding you will end up with a lot of offspring that is not worth the effort it takes to properly rear to adulthood. So what do you do with all these children you do not want to raise? It's simple, you export them to other countries and...

"Exploitation" The left often justify totalitarian control by the supposed evils of exploitation but it's not clear what exploitation even is. Let's say i work for a company adding 500000$ in value each year but the company only pays me 300000$ is that exploitation? Would that justify...

Childporn laws Currently there are very strict laws against child-porn, this is to a large extent justified but it's not really ideal. Should we really make it against the law to send or take nudes of yourself when you are below 18...

Is the GPU situation about to normalize? GPUs keep being made and eventually they are going to saturate the market, additionally the etherium pricy has gone down recently

The 3080ti is both good and bad news for gamers As expected nvidia did launch a 3080ti but is was pretty much the worst possible outcome for the consumers. Nvidia planned to sell it for 999$ MSRP but they decided to price-gauge it to 1199$ which is even worse value than the 3090 at MSRP...

The etherium mining restriction is bad for gamers That just means less ability for you to pay off the cost of the GPU via mining (when you are not gaming) and it pushes miners to buy CMP cards that are worthless for anything but mining.

Libertarianism while it is nice to have rights it is often not in your interest or the interest of society to give other people the same rights. https://vimeo.com/693709216 A weak government allows other actors to gain power instead and this is good for these other actors but it's not really a...
