  • The form required for deadlifts basically requires you to stand up straight. It's actually helped me personally to get a better standing form.

    Definitely have someone explain and help you with your form though. It can be hard to tell for an inexperienced person if their form is good, and bad form is risky when deadlifting.

    The weight doesn't even have to be that high, it's all about learning the proper form, which helps you realize a better posture.

  • There's no evidence afaik for extensive Russian meddling in the Dutch elections. Our electoral system makes it difficult for foreign meddling to have any extensive impact. The far-right hasn't really grown much here, it consolidated into a single party. They're also not explicitly pro-Russia either.

    They're stuck in a coalition government with three other parties and really haven't made much of an impact at all.

  • Sure, but that's not the hate being addressed here. Those were comments specifically about there being a black guy as a main character.

    The fact that it's a buggy barely playable mess is par for the course for Ubisoft.

  • Yup. When a right-wing government asks, he complies. When a left-wing government does, he sues.

  • No you see the Americans have all been starving because they can't afford their eggs anymore.

    Inb4 unleashing bird flu is RFK's plan to combat the US obesity epidemic.

  • Kaliningrad was German before (KΓΆnigsberg) but was annexed by the Soviets after WW2 and Russified. At the time there was a land border through the Baltics. When these former Soviet states broke free, Kaliningrad remained Russian.

  • But isn't that part of making the reader explore and experience the world of magic, just like Harry is? There's no narrator here who already knows everything, you're experiencing the stories through the eyes of Harry, and only really know what he knows. In that context, it doesn't really make sense to have these early clues. The reader can't anticipate everything because Harry can't either.

    Magic in general is just a plot device that can do whatever the author needs it to do.

  • I'm pretty sure Olivander already mentions when Harry chooses his wand that it's basically a twin of Voldemort's, and in the subsequent books it's explained that that + Lily's magic is causing plenty of weird things to happen, including what happens in book 4. Sure, the exact reason why it happens is still "magic" but that goes for most magic systems if you delve deep enough.

  • Mods can take subs private temporarily if they notice brigading. They can also contact admins who could use other tools at their disposal. Not fun, but effective.

  • Admins and mods have other tools to deal with those issues. But given that Reddit is a corporation it will likely also remove content that are in a murky area rules-wise, or given the current political climate selectively apply the rules. That creates a risk for redditors who try to use the site legitimately as well.

  • What Reddit believes to be "bad content" has historically been a little dubious. So I can understand people are apprehensive about this.

  • I see people enter with left signal flashing and then they'll take the 3rd exit (out of 4 total).

    Pretty sure that's how you're supposed to signal. In most places it's not a legal requirement but it is recommended and taught by most driving instructors.

    Although I do assume they switch to their right signal before taking their exit. If they don't, then yeah that's wrong.

  • That's merely one interpretation of quantum mechanics. There are others that don't conclude this (though they come with their own caveats, which haven't been disproven but they seem unpalatable to most physicists).

    Still, the Heisenberg uncertainty principle does claim that even if the universe is predictable, it's essentially impossible to gather the information to actually predict it.
