I'd still call bullshit. Done attacks will be useless. People desire drugs. They'll find a way.
The problem is supply and demand. If people want to use drugs, they're going to either way. We need to make the drugs ourselves and create harm reduction centers. Attack the problem at home.
For real, if I was buying FDA regulated MDMA at Walgreens, there would be a virtually 0 percent chance of me accidentally getting addicted to fentanyl.
Will check that out
I really care about my privacy. But I just can't break from SwiftKey keyboard. It's just so good. It's really unfortunate that it's owned by Microsoft.
Dude. Are you me? I'm 3 years sober and I'm still struggling to enjoy things. I find that I get angry/frustrated very easily.
I hope it goes away eventually, therapy seems to be helping.
Pre-installed is the biggest factor. Go to Walmart or best buy. You'll find windows and Mac and chromebooks.
I don't think it's "laziness" per se, but rather people aren't that technically inclined. It's too much of a challenge for the average person especially when they don't understand the benefits.
The only one that really pissed me off was a distro called biglinux. It's arch based and very popular in Brazil. It's actually very stable. Everything works great. It's got some nice features.
Butttt, it uses latte dock or panel (kde). They have built in presets for how to arrange the panels and what not. It's nice, however, I was trying to move some panels around from the base options and broke kde. I wasn't doing anything more than changing GUI settings and the whole desktop broke. I seriously don't understand.
When I delivered pizza in 2012, if you gave a 5 I'd always be happy. The thing with delivery is that the service is the delivery, not making the food. So it doesn't really make sense to be percentage based. Whether you ordered 2 large pizzas and a coke or just some cheese bread, my labor was the same. Of course, if you order 30 pizzas then yeah, tip more. Or if you lived far from the store. If you were literally two blocks over, a dollar is fine.
Think about how much time you're taking up. If you're 15 minutes away, it's also 15 minutes back. Assuming it's not Friday night, you may be the only delivery on that route. Which means, I could only make 2 deliveries an hour. Papa John's only paid me 2.50/hr while driving and 7.25 while in the store. So with those assumptions, I'd only make 12.50 that hour. And that's not accounting for gas, which I paid for myself.
It really varies a lot. But if you tip 5 bucks, I'd be at least making more than minimum wage. Less than 5 and it's not even worth leaving the store and wasting my gas.
Agreed.
And we should give extra points to people who grew up in disadvantaged situations but still had decent grades. A 'C' in AP History by someone working a job in high school, is just as good as someone who got an 'A' And didn't have to work.
Merit isn't just a good GPA. It takes into account all of the things that made it some more difficult for a person. Getting a decent score on an SAT exam when you went to a shit school, should be able to get you into a good college. But the reality is someone who lived in a zip code with better schools is more likely to get into that college purely by where they grew up. And you tend to grow up in a good neighborhood if you're parents were well off or had a degree themselves.
Purely looking at grades and scores is bad. Unfortunately, people of color tend (not always) be from worse neighborhoods. They tend to have a lot of disadvantages when it comes to getting good grades and good scores. Affirmative action is/was supposed to break the cycle. It's supposed to help give a little more merit to the situations surrounding grades Ultimately, it's supposed to diversify the nicer neighborhoods.
Here's something I find interesting.
Firstly, the definition from Wikipedia: Fire is the rapid oxidation of a material (the fuel) in the exothermic chemical process of combustion, releasing heat, light, and various reaction products.
For all you bad cooks out there, the reason you can't burn water when you're cooking is because water is already fully oxidized. Water is also often one of those reaction products the definition talks about.
I other words, you can't burn water because it's already burnt.
Here's the thing with electricity: it's invisible.
If you're using a power saw, you can see the blade. You can see other cars (obviously there's blind spots). You can see a burning flame on your stove, or maybe hear/smell the gas.
You may have a box and know that there's electricity inside, but you have no idea if it's wired correctly. You have no idea if the breaker is shut, or if there's batteries inside. We've engineered a lot of controls to keep things safe like LEDs to show it's on and ground wires on all the metal bits (thank you underwriter laboratories). But all of those can fail and you can still get shocked because electricity is essentially invisible and requires tools (multimeter) to inform you that it's dead.
None of your senses will let you know if something with electricity is safe. It's a gamble every single time you touch something electrical. You can be seriously hurt with voltages as low as 30v, assuming worst case conditions like you just finished swimming in the ocean.
Using electrical equipment is like walking through a construction site blindfolded while someone yells directions at you from afar.
The liberalism run wild concept is kinda what I'm curious about. Like what things? I know California protects abortions and has stronger gun control laws. But is that really it? There's gotta be more actual examples
Downvoted unkind discourse.
Upvote is for quality. No vote is for noise/disagreements. Downvote is for hate.
In theory, the lower a score, the less people see something. If I disagree with something that's said (like a civil political opinion), then I won't 'like' it. That takes away one potential point. But if someone is being unkind to others (mean, rude, trolling, etc) then I'll downvote, which I see as removing two votes. The one they could have had from me, and one from someone else. Hopefully, that means they won't get as much attention.
If it's really bad, then I'll also report
