Thank you, that was very interesting. I was surprised at the definition of the basic open sets because they felt quite closed to my intuition, so the topology feels discrete to me. It's definitely Hausdorff, I guess, but that's no big deal. I'm guessing if you're saying it uses a lot of the axioms, it uses the axiom of choice. It feels like that kind of arena, but I'm no set theorist. Having been taught by ring theorists, I always found the axiom of choice no big deal and totally uncontroversial, but I'm aware of the existence of mathematicians who feel otherwise, intuitionists (confusing name) and constructivists and the like. Do set theorists have a lot of debate about axioms, is it largely led by consensus, or deeply controversial, or just a case of making clear which you're using and no one gets excited about it?

I criticised your offensive behaviour and that's automatically ad hominem in your view? I think we disagree about what that word means, or you know full well and are still trolling. Why are you so intent to upset trans folks in this thread? Do you not feel they get enough hate already?

Indeed, indeed. But if you live in America, you should know that legal immigrants who attend protests are having their green cards rescinded, then their legal status removed, and then abducted by ICE. By the time they get to you, there will be no one left to protest.

Let's assume I can prove the countability and non countability of various famous sets and, for example, that (a^b)^c = a^bc for cardinalities. What's determinacy?

OK, back in the real world, you're spending a lot of time trolling. Why are you so full of hate?

Loving the projection here.

Lots of office buildings in the UK have air con, but I agree that it would be difficult to find a tradesman to install one unless your brother in law works at Wates or something.

It could be a barn conversion air bnb, because what idiot in the UK would put that on a roof they were planning on living under? But the contract looks way too urban for that. Makes no sense.

devil’s advocate

Yup. That's standing out in your "contributions" to this thread. Whatever is nasty, whatever is offensive, whatever will upset trans people, you're here to say it.

As if you didn't realise that bringing up pedophilia in a thread about trans people wasn't incendiary and grossly offensive

For flags or plushies? I don't get why this all makes you object so hard. You seem like you came here to be cross and it's working.

I'm not trans, but I guess it says blue becomes pink or there's no colour or pink becomes blue. I think you're overthinking it. It's too late to change it now anyway, it's probably the second most recognised pride flag there is. No sense getting stressed over a few colours.

Amazon: The same 31 products you don't want, again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again

Does anyone else go looking on amazon because they used to have loads of stuff, but now there’s just a few things over and over and over and they’re not quite what you wanted. It’s so full of promoted content and you keep thinking that somewhere on one of the pages there might be something new, but no, it’s these same products again and again.

Remember, you are 10 times more awesome than you think you are, and 1000 times more awesome than some shitty hater made you feel.

Reminder: Awesome.

 

It gets used online for things, and there are whole communities devoted to shitposting, but I can't find a clear set of rules for something to count as a shitpost. I remember querying whether a post on a shitposting community was witty enough to be a shitpost rather than just a shitty post, but of course not all the responses to that were terribly helpful!
