The only choice most people have is between being an outcast, and sucking it up and using whatever everyone else is using. Some people are natural trend-setters, most are followers and there are those who want to do things for good reasons rather than copying everyone else. That last group of people have an uphill battle because their lifestyle requires thought and deliberation, which is something most people aren't willing to do, sadly.
What is something like a hobby or skill that you belive almost anybody should give a try, and what makes your suggestion so good compared to other things?...
I found out after getting a BSc and MSc in engineering that the vast majority of the problems I had with math was due to being "taught" math by idiots who didn't actually understand the subject they were tasked with teaching.
I came to believe all my life that I had some math-learning disability where even though I could explain the theory of the parts I understood, there was so much I didn't and thus kept getting failing or barely passing grades. Whenever I asked questions to understand, I would get replies that wouldn't help with anything, which I attributed to my inability to imagine something most other classmates could.
Turns out, none of them "understood" anything, including the teachers. They were just better than me at learning and recalling steps in a mechanical fashion. I still can't "do math" as in a math test, but I can model physical systems like a motherfucker.
It's common for fleet leasing but I haven't encountered widespread push for personal lease. It exists as a service but I don't know if I'd call it "pushed like mad".
Maybe I'm out of the loop though, especially globally. It's probably different from country to country.
This is one of my favorite breakfasts. The potatoes, peppers, and onions are from our garden. I bake the bacon in the oven until it's crispy but not burnt. I dice the onions and peppers finely then pan fry them in butter until they start to brown. I slice the potatoes by hand or with a mandolin then cut them into bite sized...
It's one of my favorite breakfasts too, at least as far as the ingredients go
I like potatoes to be a bit starchier and stickier than fried so I cut them into bite size cubes, but then I slowly roast them in a pan with some olive oil until they become fluffy and soft, then add crushed cumin and coriander seeds, red pepper flakes of whatever kind I happen to have, and fresh oil before increasing the heat and sort of stir-frying the spices into the crust.
I'm partial to poached eggs, or Gordon Ramsey style scrambled eggs.
I like to pre cut bacon into squares, like four-five squares per strip of bacon, and I stir-fry them in the same pan I make the potatoes in. I like the texture of some starch and leftover spices on the bacon.
I'll try your method too some day. Thanks for sharing.
Everyone knows what I mean when I say libertarians.
If there was ever one political ideology generalized to being crypto advocates, it was "the US version" of libertarians, aka right leaning anarcho-capitalist types.
"The left" never advocated for crypto. There were (again US style) liberals here and there who liked the idea, and a lot of people like to equate them with leftists for some reason even though they are center right, but I digress.
The "true libertarians" as you said, also never advocated for crypto. Lib-left, never advocated for crypto. If I have to say it again: the left, in the original, global definition of the left, never advocated for crypto.
You post some opinion on something with as much detail as possible as to why you have that opinion and the commenters try to change your view in some way.
The rules are; the OP has to demonstrate they are open to changing their view in some way, the top level comments must be aimed at challenging the OP's view so you can't say you agree with it, and the overall discussion must be civil. The partial or complete view changes have to be certified with a delta, a kind of award unique to that subreddit. The OP or other users are required to reply to the comment which changed their view with a description of how their view changed and the command !delta, which awards a delta to the user who posted the parent comment.
