    The problem on this forum that a lot of people here are using it to mean something wholly distinct from its dictionary definition (the dictionary definition being "The philosophy that biology plays a larger role in determining human psychology or development than social, economic, or...

    As for W, It really does make a sound like two "u"s except for the absence of a slight waver. Imagine taking a word with a 'w' in it, such as 'word' 'news' 'west' or 'knew' with 'uu'. It's more or less the same. Or imagine replacing the 'u' in 'queen' with 'w'. It still works

    The idea is to replace it with two "u"s (or two "v"s in the rare cases where that would be more appropriate)

    D&D General I finally like non-Tolkien species for PCs

    This is also how I feel that undead (and lovecraftian monsters) should be played in movies to make them actually frightening. The past is terrible.

    I'm admittedly having trouble finding a place that does them, but Wikipedia claims that debit is also done through UnionPay, American Express, Discover, STAR, JCB, and Pulse EDIT: It looks like I might be able to get a discover debit card with Capital One

    Sorry. I'm just spitballing ideas. In any case, an increasing number of places are taking it, even if not necessarily tesco. I could cut out mastercard where I can and only deal with them where I need to. In the long run though, I do still think I need to look into getting a different bank...

    I may need to consider getting into crypto. It's my understanding that that's decentralized

    I think the issue is that it's associated with a movement that wants to maliciously trick and trap people into traditional relationships and attacking LGBTQ is a part of that

    I mea tbe issue we're discussing. You said credit and "other factors". Porn is not a legitimate factor. They should be forced to base their decisions only on credit

    Honestly if there's any change that american english orthography needs it's to eliminate "w" since the language has otherwise been scoured clean of ligatures

    I think we can agree this isn't a legitimate factor. Legally they might be able to get away with it, but that's just an indication that the law needs to change

    The real problem is that for some inexplicable reason the credit card companies aren't yet legally classified as common carriers. They're moving money around for you they should face the same restrictions as people moving freight or data or phone calls around.

    Unfortunately my current debit card is a mastercard. Which is annoying because it's currently the main card I use. I'm going to have to talk to my bank and see if they can get me a non-mastercard one, or possibly might even have to find a new bank

    Apparently it's because of pressure from the credit card companies again Don't know how much good it'll do but I found a petition https://www.change.org/p/tell-mastercard-visa-activist-groups-stop-controlling-what-we-can-watch-read-or-play In the meantime I'm going to have to look into...
