Do you know how statistics work? They don’t ask literally everybody, you know. They take a representative sample and extrapolate from that, together with calculated error margins (which are typically not shown in news reporting on it, but the study itself will have it)

Which by itself is a reference to the book “capitalist realism”

It’s the “Pills that make you green” comic, and it’s an intentionally thinly veiled metaphor on trans people

Until you realize that we literally live in a non-euclidean universe, and we comprehend it just fine. Not to mention that the surface of a sphere, which is pretty much what the surface of the earth is, is also non-euclidean

Eh, my opinion is that games should be far more stricter. It’s really not fun when every match devolves into toxicity

I suppose it makes sense to not know about her if one isn’t around small children or looking for media for them

The thing that would scare me the most is that the parents don’t even know that such things are possible on their devices

Maybe my opinion of others is low, but I find it highly unbelievable most would even realize that something like programming is understandable, or tinkering around with music, or other stuff along those veins. Maybe drawing is still realistic though

But that would just go to show that there’s a lack of all of this in the first place, even for parents

If you block any of the unproductive apps, and allow only the productive ones, and give the kid “free” access to what they have on the iPad, they will tinker with what’s available

They might fuss around for a bit if they know there’s other stuff, but ultimately they can’t force your hand, and it should still be plenty fun to do the harder things

Putting the currency symbol after always made more sense to me. It’s how every other unit of measurement works, why should currency be different?

I can’t figure out what’s strange about her hands, and aren’t the blinds from the original image? Which I presume is real?

I’m not on my PC so can’t check, but I recall the Godot engine binary being less than 1GB

That’s pretty wild for a modern engine

What are you on about here? It’s clear they talked about the Democratic Party (not the voters) the entire time

The screen probably uses more power than the computer itself

Fuck, this is so stupid I can’t help but laugh

That’s just how you write “clock” in Norwegian (klokke)

Quiet everything because they’re trying to spin nice words on the mass populace getting spend and close to the breaking point

Not if some of those resources are things like oil. It’s gonna run out eventually.

But like, yes, in principle there’s plenty of resources, especially as the main source of energy is the sun. But there won’t be if that resource usage grows infinitely, even if people stop hoarding. It’s going to become a problem eventually no matter what, unless the endless pursuit of growth ends

That’s still a thing, needs a rooted phone, but obviously it doesn’t work if the purchase validation is server side

I somt think it would take a thousand years for modern society. As complexity increases so does the risk for cascading failure

Unless they’re like right wing or nationalist, people are in general not in denial about our past. More or less the same as in other countries

Most countries have done horrible shit, and it sucks a whenever it gets denied
