You should get a wall mount for the TV. Lot of people in the room? Need more space? Voila! Pushes right into the wall!

The flag on the far left is labeled as “Germany” but it doesn’t look like any German flag I recognize.

These are all great questions for a lawyer and the answer is probably “it depends”. My understanding is that, if something has multiple licences, you need to follow all of them simultaneously. You can’t choose unless it’s clear that the author allows the choice by using “or” when listing the licences.

The best thing to do when something isn’t clearly licenced is to reach out to the author and ask them to clarify it. If they don’t write back then you shouldn’t do anything with the source material.

Definitely! But as another comment said, there’s no guarantee a teacher will actually reframe the problem into something interesting. They can just give you work sheets and have you do them over and over and over. Math then becomes a topic that relies heavily on the teacher’s ability to engage with students compared to other subjects.

I think it’s a topic that just doesn’t interests most people, especially children. Where I live, solving problems like 10 - x = 4, solve for x is taught to 10 year olds in grade 5. How many 10 year olds would think this is interesting?

In comparison, grade 5 science teaches cells are the building block of life, energy can exist in forms like electrical and light and can transform between them, and matter has states like solid, liquid, and gas. It’s stuff that ends up being naturally more interesting.

My understanding is German memes are often written in broken German on purpose as some kind of meta joke. It might be trying to learn English to understand “I can haz cheezburger?” memes

The porn. Right now the porn subreddits are mostly advertising for subscription sites like OnlyFans, Fansly, Patreon, etc. Reddit definitely thinks they can stop being used to advertise subscription sites and just become one themselves.

Pretty much anything related to statistics and probability. People have gut feelings because our minds are really good at finding patterns, but we’re also really good at making up patterns that don’t exist.

The one people probably have most experience with is the gambler’s fallacy. After losing more than expected, people think they’ll now be more likely to win.

I also like the Monty Hall problem and the birthday problem.

No, because slippery slope is the name of a logical fallacy, not something that actually happens.

If you made a colour gradient going from blue to green, at what point in that gradient does the transition from blue and green actually happen? It’s impossible to say! It is therefore impossible to tell blue and green apart! That’s the same argument the other comment is making. It suggests that because the transition point between A and B is blurry that something banning A effectively also bans B.

To quote United States Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart, when asked what the criteria for pornography entails, “I know it when I see it”.

You’re buying pornhub premium, aren’t you? Unfortunately, I also wanted to buy something from a site that only took crypto as payment.

I ended up creating an account on Coinbase, which required a whole bunch of personal information from me. That was very concerning, but they seem like one of the few crypto sites that aren’t totally shady. It’s apparently a law they must follow to tie my personal information to all my crypto trades to prevent crime or something. After they verified my government IDs and bank account details, which took a day or so, I was authorized to buy crypto.

I bought the exact amount I needed. It took about 35 minutes to confirm the transfer, and only then did I realize coinbase takes a fee, which means I actually had less than I needed. I buy slightly more crypto, wait another 30 minutes for all the super cool futuristic cryptoblock hashing to be completed, and now I finally have enough crypto to buy that $20 thing I wanted.

I tell coinbase to send my 0.0000018364929038484920385 coins to xhfhfosnjwifbgnsoahdbfiaojdbfidhsbdmfodhsbd and the site eventually confirms the transfer after yet another 30 minutes of hashblocking.

It took me about 2 days and $30 to buy something for $20 using crypto, and I have never hated crypto bros so much ever for believing this is how all payments will work in the future.

Yeah well I’m gonna go make my own international financial messaging system! With blackjack! And hookers!

Absolutely! It’s called “masking” and its incredibly common for people who aren’t neurotypical because they’ll be bullied otherwise.

Girls: wears cute trendy outfit
Boys: I put on my robe and wizard hat

Great, another good job taken by robots!

I worked with a lady who did this all the time. She’d over hear words and just start using them at work and even with clients. She offered people “dime bags” assuming it meant “a small bag”. She heard someone call a charcuterie board a “coochie board” and thought it was cute so kept saying it. She called her husband “Big D” because his name starts with D and the default icon her phone gave him was a capital D and she thought it was a cute nickname.

As suggested by the name, Marines live in water and sticks are on land. The Marines are out of their element.

There are dozens of us. DOZENS!

Imagine you want to disable a car. You could open the hood and unplug the battery. Or you could fire a missile at it.

Antibiotics are like unplugging the battery. It only works if you can get under the hood and it wouldn’t work at all on electric cars. It’s selective.

Alcohol is like a missile. It destroys everything. You can’t evolve resistance to missiles. You just have to hope you don’t get hit.
