Vodka. I had a bit too much of it a few times (100% my own fault, don't copy me) and now I can't stand the taste at all.

Oh I think pervert is an understatement. The courts have clearly ruled that he's far beyond that level.

There are more than two options. Obviously.

I hosted websites on my own hardware for 20 years and it worked out well Recently I've been using a VPS, and that has many benefits and drawbacks. Is it worth paying for the VPS? Maybe. That all depends on your situation.

I don't know the game, but definitely an Atari.

Depends on what the machine is for.

The problem that the American people face is not one of Trump alone. The Democrats in Washington would have you focus on how horrible Trump is as an excuse to ignore everything else that they're doing or not doing. The same is true for non-Trump supporting Republicans.

I was hoping that the Democratic party would fall apart when Hillary lost, because it showed how weak a political party is if the primary motivation is to be different from the lunatic across the aisle. But that collapse never happened, and I'm not sure that anyone has learned their lesson.

Nobody is "begrudgingly" accepting scientific results. But you want to tell that story, right? You're looking for an "us vs. them" situation, but that's not how science works.

Also, I think some of your facts are not actually facts.

Finally, a question itself is not "anti-science". How could it be? However, if you're using a question as a smokescreen to confuse readers or viewers to push your selfish political agenda, that would be shady politics, and it would have nothing to do with science at all.

I'm as reliable as you pay me to be. Give me a 3-year contract with guaranteed raises and see what happens.

They already are, depending what you're looking for. A lot of the answers that I've found to take questions in the last few years are on obscure developer support forums.

If you want to go way back, take a look at old BBSes or Usenet. The flame was commonly deployed. For many decades now people have used the internet to look at pictures of cats and also to talk trash or otherwise say horrible things. I don't think Reddit is different in any major way, except that on subs that were decently managed, many of the worst commenters were banned and the worst comments were often down voted into oblivion. It really did depend on the subreddit.

The fact that some people behave like assholes is not in itself anything indicative about a website working well or poorly. In real life some people behave like assholes some of the time too. Of course we have and should continue to take reasonable steps to deal with much of the badness, but we should never expect or aim for perfection on this front.
