That was a typo. I’ve edited the comment to show my original quote.

That’s… literally what I said…

“It’s sort of like saying 9/11 was an effective use of terrorism.” Sorry, I don’t know how this could have been clearer. Take care!

There’s no reason to be rude. I strongly suggest you reread what I said and consider the context of the thread. I never said that 9/11 was a successful use of terrorism, I said that the statement Data made about the troubles being successful was offensive and would be similar to saying the same thing about other terrorist attacks. You then aggressively began demanding evidence for something that was never a statement of fact, making it unclear what you were talking about. When further questioned, you became genuinely insulting for absolutely no reason. I won’t be responding again, but please take some time to consider how you approach discussions in the future.

It was and still is unclear what you were asking me to prove. A comparison isn’t a statement of fact, it’s to illustrate how two things are similar. I further explained why I feel that it was fair to compaire them. If you want to keep picking things apart for the sake of it though, have at it.

Interesting; I didn’t know that! It’s definitely an interesting subject to say the least.

Do you want evidence that people died in the tororist attacks, or that the statement is offensive? As to the first, you’re free to read up on the history of the troubles yourself if you like. As to the second, it’s a matter of opinion, not fact, but considering that history, one that I feel is fair enough. As far as I’m concerned, comparing a single terrorist attack to a series of terrorist attacks is more than reasonable.

In fairness, it’s less controversial and more that the line is outright offensive. At the time, people were being murdered by acts of terrorismin in the troubles, so to wontonly say that those attacks are effective and will get results was extremely insensitive. It’s sort of like saying 9/11 was an effective use of terrorism shortly after it happened, or the 2015 Paris attacks.

That being said, it’s still an interesting point that Data raises in the episode.

Garak is calm because he knows that they’re in the justice zone, where it’s impossible to commit a crime.

Yes I know. But it was listed as a one bedroom house, which it decidedly is not.

If this is their holiday property, I feel bad for them.

I’m honestly not sure what the typical asking price is for a changing booth, but it’s definitely not a one bedroom house.

It’s a changeing shed listed as a one bedroom house for £25,000. I’m not sure what’s reasonable about that.

I’m really hoping that the gap tree felling leads to more of an outcry and legislation against this sort of thing. In ancient Briton, trees were sacred. It’s high time we brought some of that mindset back.

Don’t hold your breath. He didn’t actually say anything about his rewrite other than “better”.

I’m not sure why you thought the US system applied. We’re talking about a British comedian on /c/United Kingdom, on a UK instance.

There’d be an inevitable moment where you get up in the night for a glass of water, walk into the family room, and just see a blackened Elvis staring up at you.

I didn’t realise what community this was at first and was very concerned about OP!

I didn’t play the remake because of the name changes. I still have my Gamecube copy and the PS2 special edition, so will probably go back to those next time nostalgia bites.

Thank you then! It seems like our debate stemmed from different definitions. Based on your definition of what constitutes AI, Data would absolutely count. By my definition, he is too advanced to be in the same category. But I get the impression that we would both agree that he is more advanced than any modern AI system. Once again, I’m sorry for coming across as condescending; I will have to choose my words more carefully in the future!
