I think this was discussed once about why we see college age or older acting as high school age. The gist was that good young actors are harder to come by and actors at college age and beyond tend to have more skill. So to fill parts it's just plain easier to get a bunch of okay college actors since their skill level is about the same as a really good younger actor. It can be done, all kinds of shows use actual kid actors but if you have an easier and possibly cheaper method producers will go for it.

The information would still need a computer interface otherwise you'd never be able to tell the glass what info to store. The glass would be acting like an external hard drive. So all you would need to do is hack the computers and then you have access to the hard drive windows.

No see that's where your wrong. 25 year old guys are acting like 25 year old guys. Just because it's something a 12 year old guy would do doesn't make it something only a 12 year old would do.

My favourite part is that Zoro exercises in his room. On his ship. He's got several tons of weights in his room. On board a wooden ship.

Bat's have a bad rap? You know I don't think I've ever heard someone say anything really negative about bats. I think it's their association with vampires so everyone is assuming they have a bad rap but don't actually think they're bad. Which means they don't actually have a bad rap. It's really quite amusing to think about.

I'm not positive but I think it has to do with the implied "you". Don't dare can mean a completely different thing so it can't have the implied you and mean the same thing. Whereas do not dare can have the implied you and still mean the same thing. So the sentences "Do not dare, (insert something you can do)" and "Don't you dare, (insert something you can do)" mean the same thing. But without the you Don't you dare becomes Don't dare which means to not dare, not not to do something but instead to simply not dare.

Umm, American here and we always took our shoes off when we got home. Many of us do. I'd say it's just as common as not.

So not to put a downer on this cause it is cool but Mexico also had indentured servitude until it was outlawed in 1915. Many of the rich former slave owners in Mexico just continued slavery in this way. There were protections in place for peons but if you didn't know what they were or had a police force that would enforce them in many places it was practically the same except it was "legal" and not "slavery".

The funny thing about societal standards is that they are completely reliant upon the majority. The exceptions are never the rule. One person is never going to "f-up" a societal standard and you're nothing more than a moron for thinking you will. You deserve everything you get when you try that approach. Societal standards can only be changed gradually by determined effort without, and this is an important without, alienating the majority.

Not a great sentiment but no context is given either. Washington was a product of his time. Stumbled across this good paper which attempts to provide some light based on the society and culture of the time in which Washington was alive. https://chnm.gmu.edu/courses/henriques/hist615/gwslav.htm It doesn't seek to condemn or exonerate Washington but merely tries to provide some needed context.

Given that we can't do that at the moment the only way we're traveling anywhere is with outside help so my point still stands.

See this is what your squad mates and platoon mates are for. If you can't count on them to braid your hair how can you count on them to watch your back in a fire fight. They are your brothers and sisters.

There used to be a solid gold cap stone and the entire thing was plastered to make it smooth. Granted is was nothing that a few thieves and couple of millennia couldn't cure though.

Unless of course they have exobiologists or exodoctors. Presumably any society that can travel the distances between the stars would have them.
