  • No. He was discussing something technical and linked an article by uncle bob, someone tried to argue about uncle bob being a bad person. kovarex said that him being a piece of shit doesn't mean the technical thing he is describing in the article is wrong.

    This is a really forced smear campaign against him that's being pushed by russian and tankies accounts of Wube came out in support of Ukraine.

  • People aren't offended, they are just point out the comical and graphic implications of telling someone you're trying to get pregnant.

    You are inventing outrage that doesn't exist.

  • Which healthcare would you choose?

  • I mean I know that long wait times exist in our system, but I've personally just never experienced them.

    I broke my arm a couple years ago. Got to hospital around 8pm. Got painkillers immediately and a bed on the triage ward, stronger painkillers within 30 mins, got x-rays, consulted and then a Ketamine injection and had the arm set and bandaged within 3 hours, then was scheduled for surgery the next day when the non emergency surgeons are in. Went under at 11am the next day, had a plate put in and stiched up and was released by 5pm that day, so in and out in <24 hours.

    And it cost me absolutely nothing.

    The longest I've had to wait for something was 2 weeks to get a MRI done on my knee after I dislocated it.

  • European phones - Choose for youself

  • I have a nothing phone 3 and very happy with it, it does everything you really want a smartphone to do, and looks stylish (imo) and has a really slick UI.

    Downsides are camera is not good in low light and they push the AI stuff too hard.

    And I'm not sure it quite justified the price tags when comparing it to Chinese or Samsung phones at a similar spec, but it's not way off and for me was easy to justify a slightly higher price tag for a British based design company and better repairability/rights as well as some cool features and looks.

    But the price point is the one thing all these 3rd party phones suffer from, you either have to make a proper budget phone, or try and make a flagship, but will cost 20% more than a Samsung because of scale costs.

  • Graduation inflation

    Jump

  • That sounds good if it works, but presumably you still leave mandatory education with some kind of official qualification right?

    So if it's not standardised, does that mean people pay more attention to where you went to school Vs the grade you got?

  • Graduation inflation

    Jump

  • So the kids own teachers mark their exams and can just arbitrarily round up tests so that no one fails after the kids have already taken the exam?

  • This is why I assume people are stupid. Few people are willing to critically examine their own behavior when called out on it.

    If only you were self aware.

  • So you think a couple people all upviting the same comments in a thread is conclusive proof of vote manipulation???

    Oh wait, it's goat.

  • Graduation inflation

  • But what I'm asking is, who decides if you pass chemistry 1?

    In my country you would take a standardised chemistry 1 exam paper at the end of the year that everyone in the country doing chemistry 1 would take and would get a grade based on how well you did, and if you get less than like 40% you would fail.

    In the US can the teacher just decide after the test what a passing grade is?

  • That's my point, we should adopt cats, which is why presenting data as "cats bad" is not useful or productive. Separating the data to show it's feral cats that's are the real issue, is more useful because it lets us push the point that we need to deal with stray cats, which is what's important.

    since there is no way to eradicate feral cats while allowing pet populations. Pet populations will ensure feral cats remain endemic forever.

    Exactly, so the choice is either get rid of pets, or deal with feral cats. So we should present the data in a way that shows pets aren't the real problem.

    Yes, they are linked, but again, that's not the point, pet cats are linked to humans, but a graph that just lumps all that data in together isn't useful. The point of data visualisation is to present the data usefully.
