Umbrias,

Yeah that’s only a 2.3 m^3 displacement. That’s only 35 people roughly. From even a cursory Google I see more people than that painted rowing boats, and that’s a pretty pitiful tonnage for transporting goods, like say, two cows.

Methinks the even on record ships we have of the era would do just fine. Almost like the culture with huge variety and skill in watercraft because they live wholly reliant on a river had ways to transport things on that river.

Umbrias,

The point is clearly that democracy should apply to labor. I’m not even sure how that is being misinterpreted.

Umbrias,

This isn’t actually a measure of resource usage in reference to a closed system tho.

Umbrias,

I’m not, it’s literally not a metric relevant to the Earth as a closed system, it’s a measure of carbon capture and production.

Umbrias,

Not sure what this has to do with me pointing out your reference for earth effectively being a closed system is wrongly applied.

But also I agree, your memes analogy between capitalism and cancer doesn’t actually make sense. It’s just punchy but nonsensical.

Umbrias,

They all already are from selective breeding, cloning, interbreeding, splicing, and more. “The same but with fewer off target effects and greater benefits” doesn’t have the same ring to it though.

Umbrias,

The article is interesting in pointing out how this strategic distancing from the rhetoric can make them look more moderate without ever actually stating more moderate positions.

Umbrias,

So you’re annoyed with the pro legalization movement because … You didn’t partake…? Or is it because you … Don’t announce your beliefs…? Because people are different from you but believe in the same thing… ? Sibling in this universe what are you talking about.

Sand, but sharp due to a lack of water erosion, and formed mostly from asteroid impacts and thermal cycling. So it’s more like glass dust. It’s possible it has similar effects on lungs as asbestos, but we don’t know for sure.

Umbrias,

Doesn’t actually mean their eardrums didn’t rupture from the airpods, just that under those testing conditions they can’t generate the imposed constraint of 130 dB.

Umbrias,

“Why would a society bring people back to life when they [describes why you think they deserve to die]”

Happy to know you’re not going to be solely responsible for bringing them back!

Umbrias,

Yes. Stress is a measure of an object’s internal pressure.

Umbrias,

Because practicality. Strain generally occurs across mm scales at most for most traditional tensile tests and relevant materials. Normally it’s actually much less than mm. Occasionally you see micrometers/micrometers.

Umbrias,

Because excel doesn’t have built in unit handling so when you enter in readings from the strain gauge you’ll probably enter them in what’s being reported.

You can write the units of strain however you like, I often say ul for unitless.

Umbrias,

Tldr reducing the trolley problem to one interpretation. The trolley problem is both what the op posted but also what the oop posted, an examination of utilitarianism.

This is like philosophy 101 “well I learned this from it so it just be the only meaning and purpose of the thought experiment” nonsense.

This post isn’t even saying anything practically. It’s saying that the thought experiment is being used wrong because x interpretation is absent, but that interpretation is still literally present. It’s not changing the utility of the thought experiment by critiquing an imagined failing of the meme.

Umbrias,

You can get some information of the musculature from the bone structure, attachments are often fairly visible. But fatty tissue and skin, plus the uncertainty of the musculature still, all combine to be fairly high uncertainty ya.

Umbrias,

Mitigate some, gain some other, but ultimately there’s always risk, sometimes that risk is realized. That’s how it works.

Umbrias,

Why do people expressing frustration deserve your explicit lack of empathy? Why do you care so much? Why is “aha! Gotcha! You’re from Iran, so you’re neglected luxuries in other situations but not this one so your opinion doesn’t matter” sound like a reasonable response to you?

You sound like a bitter spiteful individual who’s more interested in finding a reason to be contrarian and angry with people than compassionate. Coincidentally with frustrations over corporations.

Go take a break from the internet if “why does a human deserve my empathy?” Seems like something that is ever reasonable to say or think. Empathy doesn’t mean you have to agree with someone, to preempt that lame excuse.

You are certainly showing me that someone enjoys outrage yes.

(You’re also the only one I’ve seen referencing anything about console vs PC stuff.)

Umbrias,

Plenty of review bombing as the method protests can be valid. It’s just a method. It so happens that many of them are stupid, but ultimately that’s just how it goes.

Umbrias,

Something not rally being mentioned is that their monetization system has gotten predictably worse, for example nerfing a weapon in advance of a premium battle pass weapon that coincidentally fills the niche that was just nerfed away.

Umbrias,

Unlocking the battle pass with grinding takes forever. With over 40 hours I only just made enough to unlock one. Except I didn’t because I spent a little along the way on armor. Playing normally does not get warbonds at a reasonable pace.

Umbrias, (edited )

“The scraps of barely available content is the hallmark of a good game” is something I’d be abjectly horrified to hear just ten years ago.

The game is not free to play. It’s a paid game with abusive monetization practices on top. You’ve already paid for the service.

The overton window has moved so much now. Sigh.

Umbrias,

Funnily enough this exact case is a valid and accurate use of 1984.
