For real. Asian kids don’t have lives outside of school, they are like robots with one purpose in mind - to pass. High suicide rates are not coming from nowhere.

DingoBilly, in Buying a new car is not better than keeping an old one

Huh? This is just flat out wrong.

Natanael,

It’s not entirely wrong, public transit is better

doktorseven,

Not for people with mobility issues, ableist.

Leviathan,

My man, all the buses around here have systems that allow them to go down to street level to allow wheel chairs and all the metros have elevators. If your public transportation isn’t helping the differently abled then your local government is to blame.

uhh how’s public transport bad at that?
most buses have spots and lifty thingys needed for wheelchair users

Natanael,

You haven’t seen good public transit then, are you being satirical or are you really that dimwitted?

tslnox,

Also not for people who don’t live in big cities and/or work shifts and overtimes. If I didn’t have a car, I wouldn’t be able to get to my job site in reasonable time and at times I couldn’t get there at all. And no, I’m not going to spend 2+ hours with public transport after working my ass off for 8 hours every day when I can do it in under 1 hour (both ways together) with my crappy old Dacia.

like if you already have a car, buying a new one is a pretty bad idea for the environment even if it’s “greener”

Omega_Haxors,

Nobody does this. You are parroting billionaire anti-climate talking points.

Oderus,

You are parroting billionaire anti-climate talking points

Where does one go to get these billionaire anti-climate talking points? Is there a service I can sign up for?

DingoBilly,

Well you sell the car so it’s net the same…

it doesn’t matter, buying 1 car= manufactoring 1 car. net +1 car.

flashgnash, in Vaccine research vs. anti-vax research

Didn’t pfizer have to be court ordered to release the results of their testing with the vaccine though? Whether the vaccine works or not that’s shady as hell

Franzia,

Yea Pfizer as a company is deeply efficient at marketing and shareholder capital.

Borkingheck, in Buying a new car is not better than keeping an old one

This is a terrible arguement. It has the premise that all ice are going to be scrapped at once and we will just make a bazillion electric cars. It’s a phase out thing.

Also quieter cars and no tailpipe emissions are fantastic.

MrSqueezles,

Well. Bought my new electric car. What am I going to do with my old gas one? Trade it in and get money? Nah. Pay to get it scrapped? I’m such a genius.

Guys, cars don’t last forever, but when you own a car that doesn’t burn dead organisms, get ready to almost never change your oil because it doesn’t collect soot and for engines and cars to last much longer because they don’t generate grimy grease and heat and exhaust, all of which are terrible for mechanical parts.

bastion,

Part it out and scrap it for cash.

HelixDab2,

Pre-emptive caveat: I am fully in favor of electric cars, and will happily switch if I can ever afford to do so.

Yes, most of the parts that are going to wear out on IC cars are motor and transmission parts, and those are complicated and time consuming to fix. In many cases it’s not practical for the end-user to do so anymore. Electric cars OTOH are more likely to have electronics issues, and the batteries are ridiculously expensive to replace when the capacity is reduced below a useful level.So you’re still going to end up with similar maintenance costs over the lifetime of the vehicle, but they’re more likely to be concentrated at one or two irregular points in time rather than small bits of preventive maintenance done at regular intervals.

velxundussa,

Small anecdote: I bought a new Cheverolet Bolt about two years ago.

A couple of months after I bought it there was a recall on the batteries, they had to replace all of them in the car.

They were out of stock for quite a while (I assume because of supply chain issues)

They finally replaced them a couple of months ago.

I choose to see that as a 2 years extension on my bettery life,lucky me!

Ilovethebomb, in A meme for math people

I don’t get it.

friendlymessage,

2⁰=1

drcabbage,

I still don’t get it.

LemmysMum,

2^0 =1^1

getoffthedrugsdude,

The 2⁰ looks like 20 (for the 20yr old’s birthday) but when you calculate 2 to the power of 0 it’s equal to 1 (which is for the baby’s birthday). It’s a math joke, hope that helps

drcabbage,

Oh, I get it! I get jokes!

EdanGrey, in A meme for math people

TunaCowboy,

I genuinely feel bad for you, understanding 4th grade math must be such a burden, thank you for carrying this weight.

EdanGrey,

You must be such a lovely person

The difference is that especially in Greece, those kinds of relationships (forced or otherwise) were part of the non criminal open society.

For my part, I was listening to a doctor McCullough testifying in front of a senate committee. Talking slowly, calmly with experience and common sense. www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAHi3lX3oGM

I never seen the so called expert defending the vaccine who was not treating me like a dumb and a potential assassin.

My dude are you okay? You fell for an idiot because he was talking calmly?

Shake747,

Kind of wild you got down voted for showing people credible sources that raise concern. I don’t think they want to hear it and I’m not sure why

Imagine being the model. Alright, you look amazing. Now drop your pants and pretend to take a shit. Yeah thats it, just a hundred more photos in different lighting. Perfect, thats the one we upload to the internet

TryingToEscapeTarkov,

I wonder if she lost the feeling in her legs from sitting on the shitter that long for a photoshoot?

Askingforafriend, in 10/10

I don’t get why more people don’t go biggest to smallest. Makes so much more sense. Especially when listing dates in order. YYYY/MM/DD

crt0o,

That’s how it’s done in chinese. Imo DD/MM/YYYY is better though, since in practice the year is most commonly just the current year and isn’t nearly as important as the day or month.

octesian,

ISO 8601, BABY!

Catsrules,

Not only that but it is different enough with the year in front that you can assume MM/DD is next. With the other two MM/DD/YYYY or DD/MM/YYYY you are stuck relying on context to fully know what format someone is using. (Unless the day in question is greater than 12.)

EmperorHenry, in everything is fine I'm just overreacting
@EmperorHenry@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

Someone from the CIA came up with that wikihow article.

I don’t actually know that for a fact, but it wouldn’t surprise me. We know that the CIA and FBI tried to get MLK to kill himself, and we know they introduced black people to crack in the 1980s

Why wouldn’t they try to accomplish a goal like what you see above?

DocBlaze, (edited )

Since you brought it up, I’m unconvinced the introducing crack to black neighborhoods thing is entirely related. Pretty sure the CIA already had their hands full with a couple war(s) to take a huge interest in MLK when he was rallying against racism, it was more until he started speaking out for unions and against unchecked capitalism. During the social justice years they only smeared him with the out-of-context details of his extramarital affair to media outlets (TMZ level bullshit) in order to try to discredit him. Don’t get me wrong, he was a nuisance to them for exposing injustice but as soon as you get in the way of the dynastic wealth of very powerful families though, it’s a whole new ballgame. That’s when the assassination talks probably kicked into high gear.

Maeve,

We’ve pretty well created the conditions for abject desperation and criminalized despair, not to mention spending taxpayer dollars on stupid stuff instead of food, shelter, healthcare, education and infrastructure and made calling 911 for any reason deadly a lot of the time so yeah.
