Yes. When you're fighting for literal survival, if you're so married to virtue signaling at that point that you don't fight the existential threat first, you're probably fucked. Do I like nazis? No. Do I associate with t

My impression here that this sort of problem is a progressive problem though, seeing that the worst cases I see around here are always the progressive cities(Sf, etc). The right have their own issues, but this doesn't seem as severe in

The convenience stores are amazing, but there's a massive list of things to eat there that covid has since cut me off. I'm a fan of what you'd call b-class gourmet. The various donburi, to the curries and the sea of ramen sub

There's a notable difference between passively consumed content and interactive content. We're fine with 24FPS for films and tv shows, but try that for an FPS and it's considered nigh unplayable. I remember when the line was

My mental image of Tesla was that it was supply constrained. This argument probably doesn't apply if this has changed. However, if the assumptions hold, then traditionally middlemen arbitrage prices upwards in times of scarcity. Or per

Yes, blind tests have shown that users are easily able to discern between 60 vs 144hz. This isn't really contested anywhere.

You're basically asking: Does the dealer's negotiation reduce prices to consumers more than their cuts increase it. I don't think so, at least not for Tesla. I'm pretty pessimistic on this. For one, middlemen traditional

A quick nitpick, pencils don't actually contain lead (Pb). Pencil "lead" is just graphite + clay. Actual Lead pencils died out in the early 20th century. Technically "last century" though.

There was an attempt in the US, with the whole concept of the melting pot. In the interest of maintaining the other cultures though, this has been phased out in favour of the "salad bowl". Imo, the catch is that by prioritizing et

Oh, definitely. There are exceedingly common trends amongst east-Asians (Chinese/Koreans/Japanese) though, as there's a shared lineage there, both genetic and cultural. Take a look at all three countries, as well as the Chine

Sure, though your dice might not be weighted the way you thought. Rather, you might want to look at the pipeline. Asian culture is particularly education focused, so is it surprising that Asians are overrepresented in areas heavily associat

Then try and make the AA group fundamentally stronger to get better qualifications, rather than lowering the bar for them. Giving "unfair" advantages there will only bring racial tension. People can bring up "systemic discrim

Much to the disdain of virtually every male between 18 and 20 in Singapore, there remains a large amount of jungle in Singapore. Muddy, sticky, often stormed in jungle.

Are you sure, I get a one or two kg swing, but 5kg of weight seems a bit extreme. I'm not American, but in my part of the world people tend to have gradual trends to weight, not sudden swings.
