Trump touted his recently formed TikTok account and accused Harris of having to “PAY FOR HER FAKE ENGAGEMENT” on social media.
since it is always projection, we can know 100% for a fact that Trump is paying for fake engagement on social media
also, if a game relies in a complex physics engine, the physics simulations has to be done with a stable interval and FPS, which means it had to be decoupled from the rendering (which was not stable and depends on what you are drawing)
The diet that we evolved to consume (fruits, lean meats and fibrous plants) was much less damaging to our teeth than the current high-sugar, high-fat, highly processed foods. And human lifespans was shorter, so less time for teeth to damage. So there wasn’t a strong evolutionary need to regenerate them (unlike an animal like sharks)
Who are you, who is so wise in the ways of science?
Even if people were thinking “i want to just harm someone in a way that they can still make a full recovery”, modern medicine also tells us much more about ptsd and other mental health issues that can happen from violence. So even if the while premise of “let’s get violent, they can heal” was true, it would still lead to less violence
94% of the population of China lives in east of the heihe-tengchong line, which means that for 94% of the population the timezone is at most 1 hour off of the “true” time, which is pretty normal.
interesting. i did a test before posting and Heartstopper was showing, so I assumed all Netflix shows were there. But Avatar: The Last Airbender only says Paramount+, despite being available in Netflix too
not sure if it works for you, but the TV app in iPhone lets you search across all streaming services to find where something is
the more they remove, the more i’ll be using my plex server (or Jellyfin if Plex also enshitifies itself)
stories about lived experiences are more effective, but ultimately it depends on the person being willing to introspect and change their mind
here’s a full article about how to change people’s mind, if you want to read more on the subject: https://time.com/6224300/how-to-change-someones-mind/
religious belief is a mental illness
religious belief is a coping mechanism. it helps people cope with uncertainty and the unknown, creating a community. It has been in decline because there is much less unknown now that before, although it will probably always exist; since we will never know what happens after death, there will always be some unknown
Organized religion like Catholicism is a instrument of power, and it has definitely enabled genocide
from the article:
Black and Latino people are “much less likely to get arrested because the stops are bogus from the get-go,”
so, no. the disproportionate number of stops is not because of differences in crime rates. but also, it should be pretty obvious that white people (who are around 30% of the NYC population) should account for more than just 5% of crimes, even considering that more crime will be committed by poor people, and that poor people will be disproportionately non-white.
it is. quiet quitting is a bullshit word that corporate created to make people feel guilty for just doing their jobs, because you are supposed to live for work or something. it is all bullshit
they said to “educate yourself”, not “get education from experts and professors”
checkmate
are you arguing that he shouldn’t be sent to prison if he is found guilty? or that having him in jail until trial is a mistake?
the first one: yes, if he is found guilty, he definitely should be sent to prison. he is accused of committing fraud for billions of dollars.
for the second: yes. his bail was revoked because there was reasonable cause to believe he was attempting to tamper with witnesses
if you don’t trust microsoft, why would you use windows at all?
I don’t think he ever was a great person, but social media also has the power to radicalize people. It doesn’t matter if you are rich or smart or anything, using too much social media exposes you to being radicalized, in any direction
you wouldn’t need a flac file, you can use any wav file, the audio of both is identical.
regadring your question, you can think mp3 as the jpeg of music. both mp3 and jpeg use fourier transforms*. so, to image what mp3 is doing to the audio, you can see what jpeg does to images (spoiler alert, unless you are aggressively compressing it, it is not noticable)
(*jpeg actually use discrete cosine transform instead of fft, but it is similiar enough)
