  • 10 years ago was 2014, not 2004.

    The samsung galaxy s5 was released at the start of 2014 with a capacitive 1080p amoled touchscreen, a quad core snapdragon 801 processor, 21h of ‘talk time’ battery, wireless charging, a fingerprint sensor, NFC, dual band 802.11ac wifi support, and emmc 5.0 storage (250 MB/s sequential read).

    New cars were mandated to have ESC in the US and the EU by 2014.

    There have definitely been many innovations since 2014, but most consumer technology upgrades have been iterative rather than innovative.









  • Straya.
    To be fair I haven’t gone around asking people if they dislike peanut butter, it’s just sort of assumed that everyone likes it (and other spreads like nutella), and I’d be surprised to hear somebody saying they didn’t like it.
    We have many local brands. I don’t think I’ve tried one from the USA yet, but we probably have a few imported ones at costco.











  • Here’s a link to the study I mentioned earlier, which indicates that list experiments are not an accurate way to determine the level of preference falsification.
    In it, the real response was often more than double the difference between direct polling and the list experiment results.

    You continue to argue against things I’ve never said. Calling you out for saying I’ve said or argued for something which I haven’t is not acting high and mighty.
    And yet, here you are doing it again…

    I never said all polling is wrong, just polling that didn’t properly account for falsification, which the list method is clearly unable to do.

    More of the surveyed Russians said they would prefer to talk with Ukraine over continuing military actions.
    That doesn’t mean that’s what the government/Putin also believes, it means the population would generally prefer diplomacy over war.

    By your same line of logic, why should anyone support LGBT people in places where it’s illegal if you don’t have any plans to change their country’s laws?
    We need timeline estimates otherwise it’s pointless.

    It’s a terrible defeatist argument which is not worth humoring.

    I’m done talking with you now.
    You’re deliberately ignoring and misinterpreting any points that don’t align with your view, and its tiring.

    All that said, this has been an interesting bit of insight into the mind of a bigot.
