It probably has to do with some of the engineering problems with containing hydrogen.
It definitely has a lot to do with influential people bandwagoning onto Elon Musk et al. trashing EVs

Do you think…

No I’m not thinking about that.
I’m just trying to reason between public sentiment and over here, trying to say that public sentiment has less to do with actual technical viability and more to do with random comments from influential people.

There are actually, many directions in which people are trying to find ways to make the H2 storage viable for specific applications…

After having to use Ubuntu at work for > 1 year, I find it hard to endure. But of course, maybe it was just the computers being slow, except for Debian KDE working perfectly well on them.

Why though? That looks like an XP era game. Does it not work with proton?

I feel like neither of those would require sudo first.

Interesting.
So this is probably the origin of the Evil Genie idea.

The head is pretty much made to take a beating and protect the brain as much as possible, so I don’t see any single direction it would be better at but of course the forehead is better than the other parts. Maybe headbutting played a role in evolution?

Shoulders, from what I see, as long as you keep the muscles tight (and not get tired doing so), should give similar results in all directions, though having the impact taken by the limbs first, would significantly reduce direct damage to the joint.

I feel like you are forgetting QCD, where they actually added a splash of colour to change the mood of the reader.

I just decide that any site doing that doesn’t really have anything meaningful to provide and has mostly copy-pasted content from actual resource-providing websites, with added SEO.
So I just close the site most of the time.

So far it has paid off. I tend to find more sites that give information that was actually written by someone knowledgable about the field.
Thinking I should start making my own list, considering search engines are probably never going to make those easier to find.

You’re forgetting something.
All a woman needs to do, is:

• if in public, get close enough; hold his wrist and pull towards you; scream and frame
• if in private, dishevel own clothes, while screaming; run out towards people, acting flustered; scream and frame.

And there’s a good chance an angry mob will beat up the guy before even thinking to ask.
Even better if she wants to snatch something and run.

but you’re prioritizing your own feelings over their real rapes by diverting this conversation

There’s a reason why multiple replies can be given to the same comment on this platform. It’s because this way, unlike talking, we can actually have multiple threads of conversations at the same time. I am not diverting any conversation, just creating another one.

1 in 6 women get raped and you’re gonna let a few people who use social engineering in awful ways excuse that

You are attempting to create a feelings based response using this sentence.

You know what I have to do, before any of the other things mentioned, to take advantage of any such opportunity? ::

1. Be alert to notice such an opportunity
2. Somehow convince myself that the outcome of each and every step is desirable

A person who would willingly rape someone, won’t have the 2^nd^ barrier. Similarly, a person who would willingly use the social power given to women (specifically to prevent rape), won’t have the same, 2^nd^ barrier.
Those who would, won’t find find themselves doing so even given the easiest of opportunities.

The above post and the server it is on, is much more open ended and doesn’t mandate a certain specific type of violence. You seem to be having a problem with anyone responding to you with any other dimension of, what is essentially, a bandit - victim interaction.

Also, how many of those “1 in 6 women” managed to get away with lying?
I’m not claiming rape to not be a problem (as you might want to state), but statistics are not going to help win against it either. Specially considering how hard it is to determine the truth of it.

and you’re gonna let

You are attempting to create a feelings based response using this phrase. Is that clear enough.

I’m implying that the real rapes of 1 in 6 women

I’m not going to be a broken record here just to explain myself to someone who might try leading this conversation into accusing me of rape.

ulterno, 9 days ago

If you feel like you are being attacked by rape victims saying they don’t trust men, you should probably look into why.

I don’t go out enough to feel so and my lack of upper body muscles also helps. At the same time,
I am very fine with not being considered safe, since I myself don’t consider anyone safe. I stay cautious, no matter whether it is a child I’m passing by or someone walking around with a rifle and seeing someone similarly be cautious towards me is not going to cause negative feelings.

My point is, don’t use statistics as a crutch to make people realise the problem, because statistics will eventually breakdown and you don’t want peoples’ enthusiasm towards fixing the problem, to breakdown along with it. It’s important for people to understand that even if the cases were 1 in 1000, it still is a problem.

ulterno, 9 days ago

The basis of me pointing that out is that if you use statistics as the measuring to for success (which seems like the only option, but at the same time is lazeasy) of this, then solution providers will use the easiest solution to it, which hovers around trusting every woman’s claim.

Combine that with the social stigma that comes with being accused of(whether or not proven) rape and the mental trauma that comes with being falsely accused of any problematic thing and you see statistics rise for other problems, which weren’t significant before.

Post that, you will have countermeasures for those, having to balance between statistics of occurrences one problem vs the other, while the fundamental problem remaining the same:

• As long as there is no good enough way to identify the bandit, there will be incentive for people to willingly take the bandit route. And the bandits in general win.

Don’t feel high FPS to be a wasted effort.
Here, just scrolling through this page, I can feel the difference between 60FPS and 100FPS.

I can scroll much faster while also being able to read it. On the 60FPS monitor, I just prefer to alternate between scrolling and reading.
