This is the very reason I'm surprised. These flags come and go by the winds of memetics; so why is it that this design is somehow able to propagate so well despite being so clearly visually incoherent?

I'm not necessarily complaining, I'm just astonished that it caught on. Like imagine if a really discordant and structureless song became super popular.

Remember everyone: 100.00% does not mean all, and 0.00% does not mean none, just like 50.00% does not mean exactly half. They all are accurate to 0.005% points.

Do you think it's really 7.66 for north america or is it nearly 7.66?

Constantly means habitually. I can't even begin to formulate an apology for persistent spike though.

One of them is blue and the other one is red. Umm... anything else?

Literally the entire planet remembers this. Even people who were not born yet.

I don't understand what this means. "Here are two people, I think one of them is worse because they are doing more harm." How is this even self-righteous?

I felt the same about you. Obviously we're not communicating well here so let's just agree to disagree.

If you're going to be deontologist about it, I can understand why you'd think you don't need to multiply the scope of JK Rowling's impact. And I can understand why you're ok with letting the trolley kill 4 more people than it needs to. Your morality is self-consistent, merely anathema to me. So, yeah, "I just don't agree with you."

But -- maybe you don't need to mock me as though my common and standard understanding of the trolley problem is somehow idiotic. "Lemmy.ml everyone! A place where they'd willingly choose to kill 1 person to save 5 others."
