Yes. Dying your hair crazy colors will get you attention. But it doesn’t mean that you dyed your hair because you wanted attention.
If my dog goes too far away, I will shout its name very loud so it hears me and comes back to me.
Doing this will inevitably draw the attention of most of the people around me. But that was not my intention though, I just wanted the attention of my dog. The attention of the other people is just an unavoidable side effect. It may even be an unwanted side effect.
When standing up it’s definitely harder to get the last drops out. Sitting is easy as fuck, just use TP. On urinals there is no TP, so can’t get rid of the last 1-2 drops. Never have that problem when sitting due to TP.
They were (mostly) safe when manufactured. Who knows after 80 years. Things degrade
California, home to the most evil and powerful companies in the world. Lmao.
I don’t think the difference is the minimum education for entry.
I’d say the difference is how much of your paycheck is because of you specifically and how much is for just general labor.
So a physics researcher job is “skilled” because most of the pay is because the specific researcher knows about physics.
But a waiter job is “unskilled” since the skills needed to do the job are the skills needed for basically any job:
Of those, only physical endurance and people skills are “exclusive” to being a waiter. There are some actual jobs that require no physical endurance. And some jobs don’t require as much people skills as being a waiter does. But the rest of them are general across basically every job.
Of course, "unskilled job"s do require skills, I just listed a bunch of them. But most of those skills, any other worker that does any other job would have. Therefore I count payment for those skills as payment for “general labor” and not “payment for you specifically”.
You guys don’t pay with cash?
So every purchase you make, doesn’t matter how small, you give a cut to the payment processor? I’d be fucking pissed if I were a small shop selling to you. In fact there are many shops that just refuse to sell if you buy something too cheap through a payment processor.
Yeah. Go tell that to the people/slaves of the countries I mentioned.
As I said, USA is no good, but it’s not the worst.
You don’t seem to understand the meaning of “worst”.
“Bad” is absolute and can be judged with just the USA.
“Worst” is relative and you have to consider the other ones.
The United States is pretty bad, especially for being a supposedly rich country. But no, it’s not the most brutal.
Even though I would not travel to the USA under any condition, if I have to choose between USA, north Korea, Iran, or some other random authoritarian country such as the UAE, Saudi Arabia, sudan or somalia, I’m going to USA. Even though I’m a non-gay male.
So a guy got imprisoned by the most brutal government in the world. And then he fell into vegetative state. But said government has nothing to do with the vegetative state?
Do people just do that? Do people just go “eh, I’ve had enough, maybe I’ll just turn my brain off for a while”.
There are many C++ features that make the language worse. Exceptions is one of them. It’s not strange to have them banned.
Critical systems often only allow you to use a subset of the language. Dynamic (heap) allocations, recursive functions, exceptions are features that are often banned. In medical devices, safety is critical, so it makes sense. Otherwise you could get a Therac-like scenario due to an unhandled exception.
Why is a pair of scissors separated in halves? Shouldn’t a pair of scissors be separated into 2 unit scissor?
EDIT: so you would have 2 half pair of scissors? A pair of half pair of scissors?
Chromium based ones are at the mercy of Google. Firefox, however, is independent in that sense.
When google decides to drop support for manifest V2 (which is the one unlock origin uses), every chromium browser drops support for it. Unless they make a fork of chromium and add manifest V2 back in. Which means extra effort every time they want to update with upstream, since there probably will be merge conflicts.
Firefox can just not drop support for it, literally 0 effort.
Of course the random dude I replied to on Lemmy owns a set of semaphore flags. What else would I expect?
It’s a simple concept.
You need at least 2 people to form a conversation.
One of them has Whatsapp, Telegram, signal, MSTeams, smoke signals and those flags that ships used to communicate.
The other only has Whatsapp.
They are going to communicate over Whatsapp.
Even if the dude with 1000 communication methods meets another dude with 1000 communication methods, they are going to use WhatsApp, because they are used to using Whatsapp with everyone, so it’s just easier to have everyone on WhatsApp.
Because the instance your account is on ends in .de
Thank God AI is so powerful that we would live in a post-scarcity world! AI is so productive that labor is basically free. Thus making products basically free.
Who said that white people can’t cook?
French and italian food is generally regarded as good.
The stereotype is usually that the British can’t cook.
You can also have shit leaders that micromanage. What even is your point?
Not USAian so can’t comment on 1 and 5.
And 2. I believe are too recent for this. That’s more of a gen alpha thing, gen z already went through most of school before 2020/2022.
Directly causes 6.
I believe 3. Is the root of all evil. And no, 5. Does not cause 3., since I went to a public university. In my case, 3. Was influenced by something similar to 5.: the political party in power encouraging their side of culture instead of focusing on education.
This is not in isolation though. The reason standards started to fall is because higher education became a NEED. As portrayed by the media, if you don’t go for higher education, you will end up in a stagnant job that pays minimum wage. So everyone needed to get higher education, so there was a lot of pressure to let all these new students pass.
