I have to say, I took a one year break from HN and only came back a few weeks ago, and I'm astonished to see how "garbagey" it is now. We're not yet at Reddit level but it does feel very different from a year ago.


What do you mean? Parent clearly describes the Queen's Gambit. 1.d4 d5 2.c4 There is no room for ambiguity here.

King Indian Defense would be a better prompt as Queen's Gambit can now refer to e.g. some scene from Netflix series.

What are the reasons people usually invoke? And what are the "true reasons"?

Most people using the term "low trust society" are implying that certain subsets of the population are the cause of it, often with racial (non-white) and/or economic (lower class) components, whereas somebody like me views those groups and their behaviors, to the extent that it's true, as a symptom of the low trust society rather than the root cause. For me, the root cause is systemic corruption all the way to the top, for decade after decade.

And they are obviously correct as the per capita statistics prove out over and over and over and over and over again.

Please show the statistics and explain how they prove the direction of causality you're so confidently claiming.

Done this a long time ago. It wasn't prices that drove me away from Netflix and Co. It was how old contents started to be "updated" for "modern audiences/values", and how movies/shows kept being moved around between platforms.

Got my Bluray player, I buy a movie once in a while when I consider it a "classic" that I really want to have, otherwise local library has a lot of options. And worst case scenario, the high seas.

Same principles with music and games. I still get/burn CDs.


I cannot tell if it's satire. The writing gave me a literal headache.


I couldn't make it through the whole story because the hum... "writing" (?) gives me a headache. He's a horrible person just for writing like this.


Aw come on man, do you really think that im horrible for writing like that?


Sure, it is well known that in a divorce women just walk away with nothing /s

A quick google search shows you that the average is 50/50 when it comes to the division of the assets.

Why do you feel the need to lie about something so easy to verify?


It’s about pension and social security.

Most people don’t have that many assets to live from when they (have to) retire.

Why do you feel the need to change the subject?

Try googling Pension entitlements women vs men.


> Why do you feel the need to change the subject?

Says the person who came here to derail the entire conversation.

You turned a men's issue into a dozen different women's issues (some real, some not).


This is not "being able to serve", this is "being forcefully drafted". Can you share a few links highlighting how vocal feminists have asked for the draft to be extended to women? Thanks.


Always funny to see the most blatant lies be so forcefully put forward. Men were drafted while women were evacuated to the West. There are literal videos of that all over the place.


You got to admire the fantastic mental gymnastic some people are able to pull off to evade the arrows of accountability and integrity...


I more astound by the mental gymnastics how people can point at every single thing where women get an advantage but at the same tome ignore all the others where they are still disadvantaged


The difference is the "de facto" advantages - provided by nature for example - and "de jure" advantages - when the law is not the same for everyone.

I happen to believe it is pointless to "fight" the former, while governments/societies who put in place the latter are just hypocrites.

But hey, don't let facts and logic stop you in your crusade :)
