Mostly water, in that case

Right, but it doesn’t capture the whole story, namely that it’s arranged in a very particular way

absurd take, literally everyone cares about standards of living, it is almost tautological

Division of labour is not capitalism, trying to do everything by yourself is not anti capitalist (and in fact that extreme individualist fantasy has more to do with capitalism than anything else)

There are plenty of other possibilities, and I don’t think bipolar is actually the most likely. Although psychosis and delusions can definitely be a part of bipolar type I they don’t have to be, and are more commonly associated with, for example, schizophrenia or schizophreniform disorder or schizotypal personality. Of course these are often comorbid, complicating things. But I wouldn’t jump so quickly to such a specific diagnosis based on one picture.

Even if they’re aware on some level, people in the rest of the world don’t go around thinking about American spellings all day. And this is one of the less obvious ones. So nah, there’s a reasonable chance they don’t, especially because “totally mold” is not even meaningful or a pun or anything.

Best to read the comment you’re replying to before going on a tirade - this guy drunkenly interrupted OPs conversation to lecture them, it’s a proportionate response, even if maybe not optimal

Who gives a sh*t, people can post whatever they want

If you already don’t use Google apps, and your bank app doesn’t ban graphene, there shouldn’t be any issues at all tbh

Fairphone would need to substantially modify their hardware to make that work

This reminds me of the (probably apocryphal) Mozart quote where a student asked him to teach them how to write a symphony, and was told “start with something more simple and short, for one instrument”. The student complained “but you have been writing symphonies since you were a child!”. The reply: “yes, but I didn’t have to ask how”.

The application of this idea here is that for someone to know the requirements for their system to the degree that they can really be sure that the most typical suggestions are not sufficient for them, they probably have to understand how the kernel handles swap and RAM to an extent that they don’t really need to ask this question.

People are very ready to assume that their system is way out of the ordinary, but it probably isn’t.

“Commend” is not as difficult for me so I just remember it as re-commend

Yeah, for sure, but that’s not what this is about. At least Australia is actually far away. Phoenix to Vancouver is like just over half the distance from Sydney to Perth and this package went about three times as far to get there.

Also I think it’s not quite as bad anymore these days, at least in NZ we usually get stuff in a week or two now and although it’s still expensive the costs have come down a bit too.

There’s nothing “special” in the way you imagine about quantum phenomena. They are complicated to describe mathematically because we are limited to a fundamentally imperfect set of symbols, but they are not complicated to obtain the requirements for.

All chemical and light-interaction processes use quantum phenomena if you dig enough into how they work, and it’s especially clear on a smaller scale. If you just make something thin enough, it will start displaying quantum effects, but there is nothing that complicated about “thin”.

They’re not manipulating wavelengths with great complexity, they’re just growing a really thin layer on their shell.

You are mistaken. It’s wrong to think that just because they’re married their wives have meaningful control of any finances. It’s easy to see, for example, when they separate. Gates and Bezos’ former spouses took about 10% of their respective fortunes. Musk is single, lol. Putin is also single, but do you really imagine he ever let his wife make a decision?

Those are cherry picked examples, sure, but you can go down the list of billionaires and see that they are divorced much more often than you think, and their wealth doesn’t change much in the divorce.

More basically, the men are the ones on the list, aren’t they.

Their children also don’t have that kind of power until their parents die or at least get old enough to start succession planning, and they certainly don’t have control of the money.

Mastodon doesn’t have low character limits, it’s not terrible for having a conversation

Noooo, he can wear medium grey, dark grey, dark blue… and… uhhh…

This is such a non-sequitur that I’m really not sure what it means. Care to enlighten? Is the “joke” that I am a woman and therefore must change my clothes often? Not your best work

The US does have a homicide rate 3-10 times greater than other developed countries and a gun death rate 20-50 times greater than other developed countries, and in line with Guatemala, El Salvador etc.

Just because it’s not a strictly linear increase with the number of guns does not mean they aren’t causative.

In fact, that statistic is deliberately misleading because you can only really murder people with one gun at once, so the more guns you own, the less likely any individual gun is to be a murder weapon.

You agree that it’s a way to divide people, but you don’t think more united people will help against wealth inequality?
