  • I'm with you that the title and ranking of US as #10 is wrong. The graph is still just a graph of a select few countries with a large population as an illustration.

    The way OP presented it is misleading as if those are the top ranking countries and that this is the entirety of their development aid. The article is specifically for aid provided by the state for DAC/OECD members which excludes private aid where it doesn't contain ranking and only contains a short list of countries.

    The post is misleading, the Wikipedia isn't.

  • I wouldn't go as far as to say extremely misleading. The graph there does show foreign aid per capita after all with a selection of western countries.

    The title of this post is wrong and should either focus more on Luxembourg/Norway or say that US is behind some other country in foreign aid per capita.

  • Not entirely. You get a lot of air resistance from vortex shredding which pulls the object back because of turbulent air flow at high speeds behind the object. You also have collision with air molecules when they are compressed in front of the object.

    Friction on the other hand is more dominant when pushing an object along a surface.

  • I blame capitalism for this one. Misinformation and lobbying is very profitable. Using prior knowledge of what laws are coming into effect is also very profitable. Retiring and becoming a lobbyists is also.

    In the US hard facts have become debatable and there's a shitty system that massively benefits two political parties.

    I don't necessarily blame the people since the system is rigged against people's interest. They get mad and vote anti-establishment which is still very much the establishment.

  • Just want to second that. When you have predictable hardware you can do some extremely precise optimizations, timings and scheduling so you know that when a situation comes up it'll be handled and executed the exact same way. On top of that the game will always be preconfigured so that it handles almost all situations at 60fps.

    It can eek out some performance even though generally having more powerful hardware always wins.

  • Bacteria technically live in the tube of "outside" on your inside. Digestive system is just one hole all the way through the body that your body interacts with just like the air in the lungs.

  • Medieval 2 Total War. It's the best Total War game and one of the oldest. It has a basic campaign map where you create and manage armies which you then use to go into a real time battle with thousands of units. There is nothing as satisfying as routing the enemy with a massive cavalry charge into the rear when they're in hand to hand infantry combat.
