Because business majors decided a search engines primary job was actually to serve you ads rather than to help you search for things

Whelp, that’s awful

I know there at least used to be gas powered airsoft guns that had minor ‘recoil.’ I don’t know if there’s anything particular about them that makes them bad for filming, maybe just the lack of real force on the shooters wrist/shoulder.

I mean sure, but what I was trying to get at was the adaptability and the evolution, along with the active defenses captialism employs.

I’m not particularly opposed to calling it the economy, but since I’m starting from the view it should be changed into something else Capitalism fit

I.M.O. an important aspect of play is its self-directed. If they prefer that, absolutely, but I would rather let them choose and try to provide safe ways for them to explore. If they choose gardening that would be wonderful, if they choose to play with nerf guns or airsoft guns we should try and provide safety and caution to insulate them from being injured, but otherwise let them play

Personally I’d rather they banned the real ones and left the toys

A percentage is a ratio of two numbers, in this case you are trying to compare

^People who engaged in violence and were convicted at one protest^/~People who were at that protest~

with

^Number of protest events that became violent^/~Number of protest events for this cause~

To compare that you will have to wait a few years for all of the court cases to wind down. Hope that helps.

EDIT: Format

And trying to conflate a percentage of protests with a percentage of people at one particular protest. The two are not comparable.

You’re mostly right, but I would say that Obama is not who people remember here when it comes to the water crisis. It was a ridiculous overreach by a Republican Governor and as someone who has lived in the area since before the crisis I still hear Rick Snyder and the emergency managers overwhelmingly. Obama barely gets mentioned

Just use regency era dating standards, showing ankles is basically a proposal right?

It might have encouraged you to notice that they are saying that the increase you are talking about is likely a statistical anomaly caused by the depressive effect sex work being illegal has on victims coming forward.

Put simply, sex work being illegal is beneficial to human traffickers because it keeps victims from seeking help. If you are a victim of a crime you’re more likely to come forward when you are not likely to get charged yourself for the trouble of being trafficked.

This has me curious about the extremes of the relationship between perimeter length and area of various states. Time to go down a YouTube rabbithole I think, stand up maths probably has something on it.

Closed source software has the exact same bullying issue, the difference is instead of the bullies being random people on the internet, they are managers with power over you. They are at least as likely to make you do something dangerous as the randoms, but they don’t have to try as hard to hide it.

It is actually a very specific legal standard. If you like podcasts, one of the early episodes of More Perfect has a good segment on the reasonableness standard. The case is one about police violence and it is fairly emotional, so just keep that in mind for if you want to listen.

I wouldn’t dismiss this just yet. Mozilla has already been doing some open source AI work, specifically their speech offerings. If they invest in these and they get better I think we all stand to gain from having good text to speech and speech recognition available outside of Apple/Amazon/Microsoft/Google

Maybe not funny all the time, but if you go on YouTube the daily show channel used to post between the scenes cuts of Trevor. I also used to dislike his delivery, but I found him way more interesting and engrossing in the more off-the-cuff style. I am convinced it was the writers or producers who were dropping the ball.

One of the main draw of NixOs is the reproducibility of builds, meaning that redoing the build will provide the exact same output each time, so Nix encourages you to make configuration changes through the package manager. I’ve mostly overcome my theming woes with home-manager now, but this comment was speaking to a little wrinkle I had when I was trying to learn and take advantage of the OS’s features as best I could.

NixOS ended up disappointing me a fair bit. I just tried it recently and the KDE support seems very rough so far, or at least I couldn’t find good answers to how to configure it and theme it.

And on top of that they know that outrage fuels views. They keep making inflammatory content that will outrage one side and get the other to spite-view it. Of course inflammatory content to left wingers tends to be bigotted and hateful, while inflammatory to right wingers tends to just be anything not overwhelmingly white, straight, and patriarchal.
