You could also read it differently nowadays 15 years later with all the emissions scandal. Probably wouldn't want to trust Volkswagen with such statements huh.

Sudden increase is key here.

So you are criticising the over simplification presented here and I agree with you.

I would however point out that although I also don't like the binary aspect of their blurb, I find that I would quite agree with their final sentence. I don't think the test shows whether we are a good or a bad person, but it does say something about a person's ability to fit in a society.

What's "wrong" in your question is the assumption that a) the only reason religions exist is the lack of knowledge and b) that the knowledge we have answers all the questions that people seek answers to when they turn to religion. I think if you question these assumptions then you'll easily start to find the answers. Otherwise see all the other comments.

This article really sounds like it describes an alternate reality to me. Interesting to see how many people in the comments seem to hate self checkouts but here in the UK they seem to work fine. Shops seem to have found the right balance. In the same shop you'll have queues advancing rapidly at self checkouts and people run tills with shorter queues for customers who prefer the human interaction.

Do a lot of people put their voice on the internet "as much as they're able to"? It sounds like that person may post their voice online more than the average person...

In the meantime to "take advantage of Brexit" it will be possible to sell wine by the pint... A push to go back to the imperial system was axed though. Maybe brexiters should move to the US if they like the imperial system so much.

Are people hating twitch for real or is it just for the meme (of better than twitch etc)?

In case someone like me was wondering, I just googled it. They build dams to bring up the water level and create deep ponds. They live in structures in the middle of the pond where they are protected from predators.

Are millennials the new boomers now? Or is this meme about older generations making fun of millennials? I can't follow anymore.

And gradients/Gouraud style shading everywhere.
