Look at that, it works!

Does it?

Yes, because more violence is the answer /s

News flash: your thinking is exactly why palestine and friends do not get as much sympathy as they should.

Geoblocked:

Article doesn't rule out lag effects. As in "is the performance change a result of the previous administration taking a few years to take effect?".

I'd love to see stretch terms of one platform or the other and how they did 2nd term vs 1st for example. Does the article's pattern hold for those situations?

Edit: for example Obama's 2 terms (2009-2017)

Hate to say it, but he's right. We should be calling them racist weirdos.

How fat is she?

I'm sorry, but you're wrong. Relying on edge cases in either generation is pointless. Millenials had zero tech support to help them for everything you need to do on computers.

How to load a program: Nowadays - touch the icon on the screen. Millenials - Load"$",8 LIST LOAD"LEISURESUIT*",8,1 (wait 10 min.) RUN

How to install a game: Nowadays - Click BUY on game store and choose INSTALL. Millenials - Learn MSDOS basics, Type a series of 5 commands without typos

How to configure game settings: Nowadays - Play with volume sliders, Graphics preferences, and game difficulty. Millenials - Edit config.sys or autoexec.bat to ensure device drivers are loaded, load game, assign proper IRQ, DMA variables to get your SOUNDBLASTER card to play sound, select game difficulty

How to setup a printer: Nowadays - go to manufacturers website and download drivers, run setup.exe, plug in printer to USB port. Millenials - Check Device manager in Windows to determine COM port and other relevant variables. Set values in word processing software. Employ Minor in mechanical engineering to align or correct bad ink ribbon with perforated track runners. Repeat fixes every 5 pages ad nauseum.

All that BS and more required hours of research to learn how to do in an era where guidance was buried in some sketchy newsgroup where 'Rick Rolling' was seeing if you'd notice "Deltree c:" in the instructions, and not just a simple 20 second video on TikTok.

I work with children using Ipads and that one kid who doesn't get lost if the relevant icon is missing in the UI is the one I know is going to be trouble. They say average IQ increases by 3 every generation and this is the first one I don't think that trend will hold for because they aren't required to think at all ever.

Don't know who you work for, but it is a safe bet loyalty is foolish. You are at high risk for being dumped for little to no reason as soon as you become too costly. 1-3% raises are honestly shit and isn't rewarding for increased experience/performance at all. Any company that barely (in fact since Covid 1-3% is not even) keeps up with inflation is flat out taking advantage of your apathy.

They have it really bad over there. My understanding is most European countries would laugh at Canadian labour law, but Canada laughs at the US's.

Depends on the Province I think. Where I'm at you're entitled to 30 min off (unpaid) within the first 5 hours, and another within 8 if you're working longer than 8 hours. 15 min breaks are not mandated except that if the company gives you them they must be paid.

I used to think Universal Healthcare and UBI were good ideas. Now I spend my life tilting at windmills. Anyone have a red hat I can borrow?

Whether we need to create a new system that is designed to catch fraud prior to publication is a whole different question

That system already exists. It's what replication studies are for. Whether we desperately need to massively bolster the amount of replication studies done is the question, and the answer is 'yes'.

That's more a question of semantics (and dosage I suppose). Radioactive elements can be therapeutic if used properly in a hospital (X-ray scan, radiation treatment for cancers, etc...).

More to the point, radiation spurs mutation. Mutation 99.9% of the times is bad, but that 0.1% chance of a beneficial mutation is a major driver of evolution. So in a way radioactive elements help create new 'forms' of life via speciation.

All the noble gases imo.

Is it brain worms?

I wish this was true so that there would be a hard limit to within this century, on how much ff related damage we will do.

Unfortunately, they are still finding more, particularly in the north. How much yet-to-be-proven oil still out there is what really should be considered along with technology improvements that increase how much oil can be effectively recovered.

proved reserves only represent the oil that a given region can theoretically extract based on the infrastructure it has planned or in place. This is only “the tip of the iceberg,” says Steven Grape, who works with proven oil reserves for the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA).
