  • as long as they don’t use a logitech controller i’m sure it’ll be fine

  • i mean, the sea level doesn’t have to be a limit… people edit wikipedia etc or contribute to reddit just because they like their number to be higher or their community reputation. i get that it’s meant to encourage contribution, but i think you’ll get more contribution by people just wanting to make the information better

  • hey now let’s not go too far… they should be taxed at the level any other business is taxed at, and their philianthropic endeavours should receive the same tax breaks as any other business too.. if they’re entirely charitable (their existence is not by and of itself charitable) then they’re entirely charitable

  • i’d imagine if an employee brings up that they’re being underpaid (perhaps anonymously), and then nothing changes then that constituted deliberate

  • being unwilling to change behaviour in the face of evidence that people don’t like what you’re doing isn’t something to brag about

  • judging by how the votes seem to be panning out, people seem to think that you’re the one displaying toxic behaviour, and are kinda in favour of OP calling out and defending against genuine misinformation

  • i hold no particular belief about this particular case either way; i was just replying to your comment about contract workforces

  • wow that is truly awful UI you’re right

  • even with a chemistry degree, it’s very common for professionals to overestimate others ability to comprehend their field, and for beginners to overestimate their ability

    when it comes to synthesising drugs, that’s a recipe for disaster

  • the problem with the legality to practice complex things is that humans are horrible at estimating risk, and overestimating our ability… it’s really easy to fuck up synthesis of a lot of things, and can be pretty hard to detect - for example, when people try to distil alcohol and get methanol (10ml causes permanent blindness, 30ml is lethal[1])

    when you’re talking about medications, these are compounds that are specifically designed to be absorbed by your body, and dose is incredibly important - slightly less or more of a reaction and the strength changes and it’s lethal

    medicine is hard, and dangerous. holding it to a high standard isn’t a bad thing

  • especially when the difference between fine and lethal isn’t readily apparent, and practice implies a lot of not fine attempts

  • for sure wow… i remember in xfire days it logged like 20-25k hrs

    … i literally have nightmares where my character is reaching out of a black void sobbing “please im so lonely come back and play with me”

    fuck that whole game

  • perhaps - i didn’t read the article, but going by your comment: if it’s your contract workforce rather than full time then sometimes you just want to transition from expensive “temporary” employees to permanent positions

  • the reality of the situation is that these 2 things look exactly the same in 99% of circumstance and 100% of circumstances that consumers actually care about

  • furthering the explanation: tankie as a term came about from people who agreed with the USSRs use of tanks to quash revolt in hungary

  • +1 for the A1 with AMS lite

    i’ve had 4 other filament printers (and a MSLA) and the A1 is the first one that i actually use regularly because it’s just so easy
