    But we've already established that robots have no emotions, so obviously they're not awkward.

    Entirely untrue. Have you not seen the modern Citizen Kane that is Robin William's Bicentennial Man?

    I go for the latter. "Legos" just sounds weird to me - was it a marketing term in the US back in the day?

    I use "lego" as the plural. As in I say "a lot of lego" not "many lego(s)"

    and "a block" when talking about a block, as in I need another block

    Sickle cell being more prominent along traditional race lines is more of a coincidence of geography than of anything inherent to the genetic makeup of african americans

    well, except that malaria is common in warm, sunny areas. that's the causal link.

    why do so many east asians have black hair and fairly flat noses and epicanthal folds, arch?

    is it fair for me to largely characterize east asians as having black hair and flat noses and epicanthal folds?

    and maybe assume it has something to do with genetics

    even though i don't know the specific environmental causes of these things?

    Okay, so we've got this legacy laptop that's suddenly been locked out on all accounts. It's got some admin password that's not our standard, and there's no way into it so far.

    This is totally "my boss approved this" and I was wondering if there's any good backdoor tools that can run from boot that might get us logged in?

    There's some data on it that really needs to be recovered.

    But then, like sickle-cell, it isn't a race thing so much as it is a coincidence.

    and I seriously doubt this is the case

    Sickle-cell isn't a coincidence, though, like you said it was selected for!

    The dumb thing that people do is try to assume that our own cultural values for "superiority" or "inferiority" have anything to do with selective fitness, or that metrics by which we rate people today correspond to actual physical and mental capabilities.

    Hell, it's not even out of the question that there would be a selective pressure for people to be stupider, and it is certainly not out of the question that people could be selected for mental aspects that just happen to make you do worse on standardized tests.

    Sorry- I think you missed the point I made earlier.

    Sickle cell being more prominent along traditional race lines is more of a coincidence of geography than of anything inherent to the genetic makeup of african americans

    Oh, I don't disagree then. But I'm saying that poor test scores could coincidentally fall along traditional race lines in the same way sickle cell does.

    I think the only theory I've heard about epicanthal folds has to do with protecting your eyes from the sun. Flat noses has to do with the heat of the air you're breathing in (pointed noses have narrower nostrils that warm the air more).

    It's not wrong to look at genetic differences between people, but what's wrong is to demarcate "races" based off of groupings of visible genetic traits because many genetic traits aren't visible.

    This sounds similar to my H/A thread about a laptop, except that wiping it completely was an option for me, so just using a Windows restore disc to wipe it solved my problem.
