I've just been buying phones a model or two behind the latest generation. Bonus points for a refurbished phone. Saves a ton of money and they're usually not much less capable than what's new.

I thought the newest season was okay. Not as good as pre-season 6, which I expected, but better than a lot of the previous reboot episodes, which I didn't expect.

Honestly my biggest gripe with the show as it stands is that a lot of the current events references (e.g. Amazon, Bitcoin) are a bit on the nose.

There are issues in America

Whatabout Australia?

Yes.

?

Okay, you're coming in a little hot there. I have no idea what you're talking about. I'm not deflecting anything. I'm saying that pointing out that there are issues in Australia does not absolve the fact that there are issues in the US. I'm literally only pointing out that it is, in fact, whataboutism. That's it. I haven't even touched on the issues themselves, so whatever persona you've painted on me and are clearly so passionate about is in your head only.

It's an ultra minimalist representation of Loss, but backward

Some people are really weird when it comes to things being "fair." I forget the details but I remember a study where given the option of getting $100 and a stranger getting $200, a good chunk of people would rather neither of them get anything.

Did you enjoy that, boy? Cockney urine all over your face? That was a bad time for you, wasn't it boy?

Man with all the shit with Israel I keep forgetting they're talking about Palestine, Ohio.

"If I were to ask your brother what kind of butts he likes, how would he answer?"

dalekcaan ,

It works the same as the original puzzle. If you ask the lying small butt brother, he'll lie and say his brother would say he likes small butts. If you ask the truthful big butt brother, he'd say his brother would say he likes big butts, because he knows his brother likes small butts and would lie about it.

Essentially the negatives work out so that each brother answers with the kind of butt they themselves like, which you can then use to determine which is truthful (though at this point that somehow seems less important).

dalekcaan ,

Yes, but you're not asking him what his brother likes, you're asking him what he would say he likes, which is what flips it. You're basically making sure the answer is a lie regardless of which brother you ask.

True. It seems there are different versions of the puzzle, but from a quick search it was popularized by the movie Labyrinth, and there they get around it by having a second set of guards who don't know the answer explain the setup.
