What are some of the most demanding physical job tests?

Many jobs, especially in law enforcement, the military, and firefighting, require candidates to pass rigorous physical tests as part of the hiring process or to maintain employment. These tests are designed to evaluate strength, endurance, agility, and other physical capabilities needed for the job. The passing scores are...

Veritas,

Why don’t you write what you actually want in the opening post instead of making people guess.

Veritas,

Here is primarily where Mr. Norton is sourcing everything from if you are all interested.

Some other interesting notes:

  • Majority support Russia as the most ‘trustworthy foreign actor’, this includes China
  • Majority support military junta staying in power, separate pluralities for ‘an extended period’ and ‘until new elections are held’. 54% do not want military intervention from ECOWAS
  • Data is from ‘Premise data’. a crowdsourced (??) polling aggregate from users in various countries. www.premise.com/why-premise/
  • Typical ‘new and amazing breakthrough company’ bullshit lingo aside, they seem to just have a ready crowd of ‘volunteers’ in various places that they can send questions to at any time, idk if they posted anything about demographics or specific polling data as I can’t find the poll itself.

tass.com/world/1658013This outlet claims that ‘The poll was conducted among highly educated male citizens, 62% of whom were residents of the capital.’

On reddit, the article received a few comments about how Africans dont want democracy and then was deleted on /r/worldnews.

That’s essentially what I’ve found on this specific topic.

ad hominem. Attacking the source is just lazy. Learn how to disagree.

name-calling. Those attacks are just lazy. Learn how to disagree.

Veritas,

You could say the same about any other news source you dislike. You are just comparing it with news sources you already know get funded by the West without any basis.

I’ve read Seymour Hersh’s Pulitzer Prize-winning report “How America Took Out The Nord Stream Pipeline”. I stopped reading that “vatnik soup” when it dismissed them for reporting on the US blowing up the Nord Stream. The US government’s weak attempt at misdirection with the Chinese weather balloon only reinforces Hersh’s report. Anyone who doesn’t take Hersh’s report seriously is not credible. Moreover, the fact that Clayton Morris reported it while the rest of the media focused on the balloon only makes me think he’s more credible than most of the media.

Veritas,

Apparently they don’t learn.

Veritas,

The context window is still too short for any story. They just forget about old messages and only remember the newest context.

Veritas,

Embarrassing, considering how un-creative and original GPT-4 is. It’s an actual struggle to get ChatGPT to think outside of the box. Claude 2 on the other hand is much better at it.

But this goes to show how unimaginative the general population is if this truly is the case.

TIL on 1934 business leaders plotted to overthrow President Roosevelt and they weren't punished because they were too powerful

Today I learned about the Business Plot of 1934, a political conspiracy in the United States to overthrow the government of President Franklin D. Roosevelt and install Smedley Butler as dictator. Retired Marine Corps Major General Smedley Butler asserted that wealthy businessmen were plotting to create a fascist veterans’...

What news sources can I trust?

After watching the documentary “JFK to 9/11: Everything Is a Rich Man’s Trick”, I’ve just learned about Operation Mockingbird, and I don’t know what I can trust anymore. I already distrusted mainstream media because of how one-sided they became when covering the news about the Ukraine-Russia conflict, but after...

Veritas,

But I don’t want to exchange US propaganda for Russian one. I would prefer a way to know who exactly funds each news source, but that’s probably not something they make public so I don’t think there is a website where I can see that easily.

Veritas,

Can you tell me what Russian propaganda I believe in? I try to watch only independent sources.

Veritas, (edited )

if that doesn’t work, unironically kill yourself before you end up helping Russians put trans people in a mass grave somewhere.

I’ll try to forget all this. I won’t take advice from someone who goes around telling people to kill themselves.
