This is not the "value" you're thinking of. Value of having perfect health is not the same as business value. Valuable medicine isn't the same as a trip to Seychelles - even though both may cost thousands of dollars. You

Yes, you're definitely the minority. The vast majority of people don't buy nearly enough OTC medications to justify $15 per month to recommend OTC medication

Getting back to the product at hand - there was no value, as much as a minor cost saving. A semi-reliable recommendation on the medication that Susan could prescribe doesn't save nearly enough money. You should realise that medicines a

They made it better and wrestled the position from the others. Yahoo and AltaVista weren't great and Google Search was far superior. Making things work better is way easier, than creating a completely new market.

I think people forget how much luck has to do with all of it. Location, timing, access and mistakes on the side of market players - are all a matter of luck. Google could not have started in 1998 in Russia. Microsoft would not have been Mic

US literally had a trade representative tell Volkswagen to move their engine manufacturing facility to US, or face heavy import duties. US is not free from being taken over by a national populist. Currently the highest rated TV show in US i

This is offtopic, but social spending isn't dependent in many NATO member states on defense spending. Germany literally can spend 4% of GDP on defense, without serious impact on socials pending. There's also the other side of the

You can get a refugee status without an ID. If ID/passport were a requirement, it would make no sense whatsoever... considering that you're likely fleeing a government that wants to kill you.

GeForce Now is there for you...

At almost twice the price of a desktop with the same RTX3070 from Dell or HP. It's definitely a great machine, but if you're a gamer - stay away.

by JAlexoid 5y ago
You're right, it's priced higher than RTX3090. Because HP sells the whole system with RTX3090 at $2909 right now.

There's more demand for streaming games, than games for Macs. Desktop Macs with GPUs even remotely capable of gaming are not that plentiful.

I'm in a rural area 1.5 hour north of NYC - I use GeForce Now and Stadia with 6ms latency. It's available to more than just the big cities.

Yelling at the time of physical pain is plain reaction, it's not catharsis... specially not in this context. It's not a violent release of pent up emotions.

In psychology venting is called catharsis. As for articles: Let's start with the one in the article. https://psycnet.apa.org/record/2002-13494-002 https://psycnet.apa.org/record/1966-04874-001

Exactly. Right now all data that I can find tells me to not vent, but take a time out. You know.... how we have "count to 10 before saying anything nasty".

Intense physical activity isn't necessarily violent catharsis. I almost never engage in catharsis now, but I do go on half marathon runs when I'm stressed. They're not the same thing... as like yelling at my husband over rand

That's mischaracterization of catharsis. As for releasing intense emotional strain - you're more likely to lash out. Have you tried not punching the wall and have a time out instead? Because people who "punch the wall" a

I can link you to another bunch. Because I took interest on the subject. I've been told to "vent" almost all of my life and only a few years ago I got exposed to this research. I'm citing one of the earlier ones and ther

One of a few studies I've read followed people and found that people who engage in catharsis do it more often and have lower tolerances to irritants. One of the earlier studies just had people's anger tracked(anger has a very clea

A leaky cauldron gets thrown out, is the counterargument here. If you want to be angrier or as angry - catharsis is great.

by JAlexoid 5y ago
Like almost all analogies - it's a bad analogy. Catharsis has a long history of study and proponents of catharsis have yet to get a "win".

by JAlexoid 5y ago
Do you know of a single study that supports catharsis? Because all studies I know of disprove or end up inconclusive.

by JAlexoid 5y ago
Catharsis(aka venting) has had a multiple studies saying that it doesn't work. Stop venting. https://psycnet.apa.org/record/1967-02716-001 - it's even in the abstract.

Yes. This whole comments section is full of very specific posters. There's a clear intent to derail and muffle. Welcome to the world of Russian digital propaganda machine. They even have puppet accounts arguing with each other, as was

Expressing support for war or denying genocide is indeed illegal in many countries. RT and Sputnik are literally Russian government entities.

Your intentional reading of that comment in bad light, is literally the reason why the situation there is so bad. You shouldn't immediately assume ill intent.
