  • It's not a mistake. The person of the year is not by definition a good person, but someone who's had a lot of influence during the year, for better or for worse.

  • Thanks for linking to the wiki page. Now I know what I don't need to read since I also knew exactly what Web 3.0 was.

  • Could Zelensky use nuclear bombs? Ukraine’s options explained

    Jump

  • Depends on the size of the area you're considering. In some area, one nuke would blow up 100% of the mines. But in some other, larger, area, it would only blow up 50%.

    But to be fair, using nukes to clear mines is probably one of the least effective methods considering all the collateral damage on villages, fields and nature.

  • Arteries rule

    Jump

  • "Your body - your choice" refers to the basic human right that you're your own master and no one else can own/control you.

    It's especially used in the discussion about whether abortion should be legal or not, where it refers to the fact that the fetus in a pregnant person is indeed part of that person, and they are allowed to do what they want with their own body (e.g. abortion).

    The post mentions the opposite, "your body, our choice" which refers to the anti-abortion movement where people, often due to religious reasons, think they should have control over a pregnant person's body, rather than the pregnant person themself.

  • So it's basically the difference between D and R early votes in Clark County?

  • What does the Clark firewall refer to?

  • We had no problems with vaccines or election integrity until Trump. It’s all manufactured nonsense.

    Jump

  • So how would this system prevent people from voting multiple times or voting as someone they're not? Could you elaborate on what you meant when you said "alternative ways"? I'm imagining something like fingerprints or retina scans, both of which take more time and money than a simple ID.

    Also I'm not too familiar with the DMV, but isn't that for driver's licenses only? Surely that's not the only way to get an ID in the US?

    I guess my point is rather than allowing voting without ID, there should be better systems in place to provide everyone with an ID.

  • Why are democrats not as supportive of ID laws? I would assume it's obvious you need an ID to vote, or am I missing something here?

  • Eat lead

    Jump

  • Also I'm amazed by how people don't seem to understand what half-life is. It's not the time it takes for an atom to decay. It's the time it takes for half of the atoms to decay, meaning there will be some U-238 that decay into Ra-226 in just a couple of seconds.

    So even if the Earth was created 4000 years ago with uranium but not lead (for some weird reason), some of that lead would have decayed into lead by now.

  • Queen behavior rule

  • She holds the title International Master, so I guess OP thought that's the same as World Champion? But she's currently ranked 6365th of active players.

    "A hospital? What is it?"

    "It's a big building with patients, but that's not important right now."

  • King Charles’ €500K lobster dinner blows hole in French presidency’s budget

    Jump

  • The issue with these statistics is that they look at the average, which is heavily boosted by the exceptionally expensive weddings of the higher upper-class. The median is significantly lower.

    Also I'm not American, maybe people there just spend a lot more on weddings in general than what I'm used to.

  • King Charles’ €500K lobster dinner blows hole in French presidency’s budget

    Jump

  • I have no clue how you define "middle-class" but not even the fanciest weddings I've been to have spent even close to $250 per person. That kind of expenditure sounds quite a lot more like upper-class to me. Assuming you invite 100 people to the wedding, an average Joe will not have 25k to spend on one party.

  • Women and children of Gaza are killed less frequently as war’s toll rises, AP data analysis finds

    Jump

  • I also feel the need to remind people that while most combatants are male, not even close to all males are combatants. If only women and children (probably almost all civilian) made up 60% of all deaths, then the remaining 40% includes all male civilian deaths, which very well could be higher than combatant deaths.

  • Europe Has Fallen Behind the U.S. and China. Can It Catch Up?

    Jump

  • Yup, if someone works "harder" they're either being exploited or they live in a less advanced society where technology doesn't help the working class as much.

  • Severe flooding wreaks havoc across northern Europe

    Jump

  • "Northern Europe" but Belgium/France/Germany. Welp, I guess the Nordics don't exist.

    To be fair though, there are also about to be some severe floods in Lapland quite soon, albeit for a completely different reason: exceptionally warm spring weather melts the snow faster than usual causing rivers to flood.
