The idea that you make a conscious decision about your sexuality has been debunked so many times it's not even funny.
Unfortunately all theories about the origins of sexuality have been comprehensively debunked. Nobody really has any idea - although plenty of people think they do.
Personally i don't see why it matters. Why should somebody's sexuality be of any concern to anyone else? The only sane reason to care is if you want to fuck them.
Unless maybe you are capable of parthenogentic reproduction, something mammals seem to be incapable of.
That's irrelevant. The gp said "Without a species, the genes are dead-enders." - which is always true. Sooner or later something about the environment changes and makes it inhospitable for any given phenotype. The species survives if there are a sufficient range of different phenotypes that some individuls can cope with the changes. That's why potato blight caused famine in Ireland.
[......] could someday carry those data [......]
Those data? Please keep that sort of language to the pretentious halls of academia! ICT people generally say "that data".
Data is not plural - any more than sand is. You don't say "the sand on the beach are golden", do you? Why not, if you say "data are"? In both cases we're talking about things in bulk, not a collection of individual data items or sand grains.
And what's "data" the plural of, anyway? Not "datum" - the plural of that is "datums", as in
As GPS, a satellite-based location system, matured and became accessible to the public, the need to extend and better define the earth's spheroid and associated datums became more pressing.

Treating the word "data" as if it's plural is nothing but pretentious academic wank.
Yup, I feel sorry for people that don't ever drink.
When they wake up in the morning, that is the best they will feel all day!!
I know nothing about not ever drinking, but a few years back i went for a year without drinking alcohol (or coffee or tea, etc) - and when i woke up in the mornings that was pretty much the best i'd felt all my life!
Unfortunately, circumstances conspired to gradually start me drinking again.
Asprin is poison but my cardiologist tells me to take one everyday. Life is fatal, enjoy yourself "a little."
That's because your cardiologist owns shares in pharmaceutical companies.
My television watching has stayed the same for decades: 0.
Television is a device which sucks your mind out through your eyes.
A good reverse osmosis system will remove most anything larger than a water molecule... that includes just about any pharmaceutical molecule you'd care to name.
Of course it will. But RO is very expensive and complicated and requires specialised maintenance. It's also not mentioned in TFA (although it could be in the video, i don't know - reading TFA is quite uncool enough on
Recycled (usually called "reclaimed water") water is not the topic [......]
I don't know what you're on, but maybe it's the pharms in recycled water. How is recycled water not the topic? Are you suggesting "Water From Human Waste" isn't recycled?
Fuck you.
Calm down child, you'll have a seizure if you're not careful. TFA doesn't mention reverse osmosis - which is very expensive and slow.
Remember, that delicious tap water was once pooped in by a dinosaur.
Maybe. But dinosaurs didn't take pharmaceutical drugs.
Water's water [......]
That's undisputable. However, it's what's dissolved in it that's the problem. Sewage contains pharmaceuticals and hormones - none of which are removed by the treatment process. Generally, recycled water isn't even tested for them.
There's no T-Mobile in this country.
As i understand it, they shut some servers down because they were worried about overheating.
Also a lot of people aren't interested in hearing the same music throughout their lives like older generations did.
I'm an old(ish) person (56) and i hate old music - i've heard all that old crap far too many times. But i don't live in a city and i don't have internet everywhere and i want mp3s. And i'm quite happy to pay for them - but i won't pay for streaming.
The only Australian mp3 seller (Bigpond Music) has recently stopped operating in favour of a streaming service, which really only leaves Google Play (which is a pain in the arse). Itunes is completely useless if you use Linux, and there's fuck all else as far as i can tell.
