/r/trees I have a confession to make. [8] | I'm becoming one of you. I'm currently 26 years old, and have barely touched cannabis in my lifetime. I never really enjoyed the feeling.

Bienvenue ou Bienvenew: a linguistic question for anglophone Canadians | As I was watching the ceremonies, I noticed that every single English person who said "Bienvenue" (such as the CEO and the spokesperson of the four tribes) was pronouncing it bienvenew and I realized that the proper way to say it involves a sound that doesn't exist in English.
Here's a francophone saying it

As Atheists, can we still acknowledge that Religion has played vital and even positive roles in human history, for instance America? | I will be the first to jump up and defend the notion, no fact, that America was founded to have a secular government.

Another question for /r/socialism. A socialist told me that he supports a revolution, with or without public approval. Isn't this almost impossible, given the current state of the U.S.? | What made this guy (who said the above) say that a revolution doesn't need popular support was when I suggested that the Green Party (who I'm working with) advocate and make a priority of less radical socialist policies to gather a following, then see where we stand to implement the more radical ideas.

A Hypothetical question in the Star Trek Universe | How long would it take for a vessel capable of warp 9 to go from Earth's space dock to Alpha Centauri A. I know that you're not suppose to go to warp within a star system, but this would be one of those "what other choice do we have?" scenarios. |
Albums where one song flows right into the next one? | I'm listening to Neutral Milk Hotel's *In the Aeroplane Over the Sea*, and one of the things that just gets me about the album is the way the end of every song moves right into the beginning of the next one.

What about you would make the world really shitty if everyone else did as well...? | For me, the world would be a really shitty place if after hooking up with 9 out of 10 girls, I immediately excommunicate and pretend like they don't exist. (The 1/10 is always a winner thought...)

/r/Anarchism moderation policy revisited | From joeldavis from the mod chat:
It's been a few months since we talked about it, maybe we need to revisit the issue and develop a new consensus on it. The last real big flame up we had about moderators I think most settled on the idea of people who had sort of "homesteaded" /r/Anarchism in a positive way would be ma... |

DAE have ESL parents that taught them to pronounce mayonnaise and spatula as mah-yo-nayse and spa-too-la, so you got horribly mocked in home ec. class. | My younger brother and I speak English fluently without any accent and it was our first language, but there's still some words we pronounce wrong.

I haven't found a game that doesn't lag.

Why is it that a cat will follow you from room to room, but once you get there and want to give the cat some attention, the cat just looks at you and says "meh" | Just before I typed this my cat was at war with my screen saver, She followed me to the bathroom, down the hall, even into the bedroom. When I tried to pet her she looked at me like I had 8 heads. Stupid cats..... |
Use remote disc with any Intel-based Mac, not just Macbook Airs. | If you have a Mac that doesn't have an optical drive, or your optical drive has failed, or for whatever reason your OSX machine doesn't have an optical drive, you can access a CD / DVD read-only on another OSX or windows machine.
First setup the share.
On a Mac go to System Preferences > Sharing and select "DVD or... |
Not sure what I'm getting myself into. Thinking about pulling the plug before anything happens | Hey everyone.
So I was bored studying about a week and a half ago, so I started clicking through Facebook profiles. I ran into this one girl who had pink hair, so I just messaged her saying "haha awesome hair, lost a bet?". She wrote back a couple of days later and one thing led to another, we got to chatting.

What is the deal with O'Brien's rank? | Miles Edward O'Brien has been with Trek since Encounter at Farpoint, but his rank has always been hard to nail down.

What's your worst TMI (too much information) moment? | When my sister said she likes to suck sperm out of buttholes after a threesome. I was 12 at the time. |
Why don't wind turbines have further wind turbines at their tips? | I was thinking about this...I assume it's a wieght concern more than anything? Hypothetically however, if you could make the blades of a wind turbine infinitly light, could the individual blades maintain a further, smaller turbine at each tip? Then each of those, etc. etc? If anything, it would look freaking awesome. |
Multiple return in a systems programming language | I see languages like Alef(used for a while for plan9) and C-- have multiple return capabilities. Why has this not survived for any systems programming language?
e.g.:
fib(n1,n2) {
return n2,n1+n2;
}
n2,n3 := fib (n1,n2); |
Use of honorifics for religious people | I know I'm incredibly guilty of this, as whenever I interview a minister I make sure to get their religious title.
But - not my project is done, and I'm wondering: should we use them at all? Does it give more credence to someone you're discussing/debating with to call them "Father X" or "Pastor Y", instead of Mr. or M... |
