You are just hating the word "God", while the idea of natural rights is that a person is born with rights, rather than that the rights are granted by the Government.

No, I'm hating the idea, which is stupid no matter which word you use for it.

Sometimes I finish writing some code and some inner force pushes me back. And I go through my code once again and fix the bugs.

You should embrace your own agency instead of needing to imagine a magical sky daddy coding assistant.

Seriously though, I raised a basic human rights issue (language rights of ethnic minorities) and you have politicized it.

Only a clown who knows how nothing works thinks human rights aren't a political issue, since they are invented concepts which are wholly meaningless without a government willing to protect them.

It's always disgusting to see people come to his defense. It's heartbreaking when it happens here. This is supposed to be a place for people who care about knowing things. And indeed I assume that the people defending him actually know he's a child fucker, so that means that a significant percentage of the people here who regularly get modpoints are in favor of child rape.

OK, just I thought may be "orc" was an abbreviation like "olways ready to communicate". Or a vague reference like "sorry bud, I have an orc in my house and it refuses to leave until I have sex with it".

That in fact is how the orcs work. Puto sends them into other nations and they rape their way across them.

If they can do 600 miles at great expense, the same tech can do 300 miles at not so great expense.

Someone in my area is selling a Smart EV. They advertised it as being able to do 60 miles. The average American's commute is 30 minutes. So is mine. Since I can't charge at work, I could only drive to and from work at 60 mph and with zero issues, no detours, perfect weather etc. A reasonable range is somewhere in between that and 600 miles.

Comment Re: This is why we need public health insurance (Score 4, Informative) 106

You should be careful of taking the claims of the Chinese Communist Party at face value. China has universal health insurance, but it is administered in a way that many people canâ(TM)t access critical care *services*.

For example if you are a rural guest worker in a city, you have health insurance which covers cancer treatment, but it requires you to go back to your home village to get that treatment, which probably isnâ(TM)t available there. If you are unemployed you have a different health insurance program, but its reimbursement rate is so low that most unemployed people canâ(TM)t afford treatment.

Authoritarian governments work hard to manage appearances, not substance. This is a clear example. It sounds egalitarian to say everyone has the same health insurance, but the way they got there was to engineer a system that didnâ(TM)t require them to do the hard work of making medical care available to everyone.

If you want an example of universal healthcare, go across the strait to Taiwan, which instituted universal healthcare in the 90s and now has what many regard as the best system in the world.
