Waiting for someone to license and start production on a good star wars mmo.
There have already been two of those, and I don't think either of them did as well as was planned. I wouldn't expect another one to pop up for at least 5 years.
No I said GOOD star wars mmo, the first one was an empty parking lot and the second one was the best single player mmo ever created.
Don't go looking for trouble. If you couldn't handle Ubuntu, Arch will drive you insane.
1000 times this.
Slippery Slope is a LOGICAL Fallacy not because it doesn't work, but rather that it doesn't work all the time. In this case, I used Slippery Slope to point out how silly it is to "ban" something because it might be used to do something "bad". Do we ban 3D printers because they can make a lower receiver to a gun? If so, then why wouldn't we do the same thing with all those other things I mentioned (slippery slope). At what point does making something that has a million legal uses illegal simply because someone might make something bad with it?
When you define that property, then you'll have broken the slippery slope. BUT it is up to those that say "ban 3D printers because they make guns" to define that point, because otherwise their logic extends all the way down the manufacturing chain. "Might make a gun" is not reason enough. "Too Easy" is not reason enough.
I see no one saying "ban 3d printers". I see many people saying "ban 3D printing of guns". If people were suggesting we ban 3d printers your argument would be valid. They are not, and as such your chain of events is the very definition of slippery slope.
Obviously, we need to regulate machining tools because those might make a gun. And we must regulate robotic Metal Presses, because those might make machining tools, which might make guns. We need to regulate mining iron ore, because iron ore is used to make gun parts, machining tools and Robotics. And we must regulate Big Trucks, because they might carry dirt used in mining iron ore
At some point, laws don't stop people. And making more laws doesn't help.
Slippery Slope fallacy much? We make laws to define legality, not to ensure that nothing illegal ever happens. If making something a law was an immediate solution we would have not crime ever. If it is illegal to print weapons then most people will not do it because they do not wish to break the law. In fact the people who would wish to break the law to get a gun will just go get a actual gun not a 3d printed one. No point in getting arrested over a temporary weapon.
nor are the real ones.. It's a toxic, oppressively passive aggressive culture obsessed with political correctness over truth that pushes lanzas over the line. While our politicians bicker about access to methods, they conveniently (for them) ignore their own parts in it.
Of course, we can just ignore those gun violence stats that say that people do use real guns to kill people.
It's a completely arbitrary scale, so you have no idea how big a 0.3 difference is.
Indeed, but why make
