  • take their money and arrest those responsible

  • The factories may use fossil fuels, but I do not.

    The fossil fuel companies are responsible for their own actions, as are the companies and people who still choose to use fossil fuels.

    The people who have made an active choice to avoid fossil fuels (or the people without a choice) are not at fault. Blaming them instead of the people who can make a difference helps no-one.

    Speak for yourself. I refuse to pay them a cent, and have taken every step I can to distance myself from them.

  • If you walk forward inside a Shinkansen car while the train is moving at top speed, does your personal momentum actually compress the distance between Tokyo and Nagoya, or are you just changing the ra

  • If talking about relativity, the distance to destination is further compressed only for your perspective, not the train's, and not the earth's. The amount compressed is imperceptible.

  • Have you ever met an actual dumb person?

  • I spent 20 minutes (I timed it) on the phone diagnosing a tech support issue and instructing the user on how to fix it. It took about 10 seconds for me to realise that number lock was turned off.

    The rest of the 20 minutes was trying to get the user to find and press "Num lock" on the keyboard.

    About 10 minutes in, they actually found and pressed it. Apon noticing that nothing had appeared on the screen, they tried pressing it again, then announced it didn't work.

    Somehow, just getting them to press the button one more time was not simple, as they now had to begin their logical left-to-right scan of the keyboard again to find this mysterious new "Num lock" button they'd never heard of before.

    This person (on another call) would say the name of each key as they pressed it. They would say "Caps lock, A, Caps lock, Enter" when typing a single "A" on a line, but didn't know what "Caps lock" was and couldn't find it on the keyboard when asked to press it immediately after having said and pressed it.

  • What do you think about gambling?

    Jump

  • Gambling destroys lives. Making gambling illegal may be controversial, but I can't see any reason to allow gambling ads.

    If you want to gamble, then it's your own life to ruin. If you advertise gambling, then you are ruining other people's lives.

    Ban gambling ads.

  • When Escalator Breaks, It Turns Stairs

    Jump

  • Multiple independent braking systems and adequate maintenance.

    A single failure may cause the escalator to stop working, but it takes 3 failures in a row to make it catastrophic. Regular maintenance catches this failures before 3 in a row can occur.

  • When Escalator Breaks, It Turns Stairs

    Jump

  • If any of the stairs are damaged and cannot stay attached correctly, there is a chance of falling into the machinery below, which will not stop just because a human is in the way.

    If the failure is in the braking system, it can quickly turn into rapidly moving stairs, which can be very lethal.Most escalators have multiple independent braking systems so that this doesn't happen, but some poorly maintained escalators have been discovered with 2 or even all 3 systems disabled.
