I like to believe I’m pretty good. First, never assume bad intentions automatically. I go through a range of typos it could have been and respond like it was a typo. And then wait for another response to confirm if it was intentional or not.
Note - English is not my native language so that might have something to do with my higher level of tolerance.
Makes sense from manufacturing and business perspective to refresh your offer every year. It doesn’t have to be a huge improvement, but technology slowly advances, there might be a better or cheaper manufacture for some components, etc.
On the other hand there no reason for any individual to be buying a new phone so often. Software support must be a thing - there’s no reason for a phone to become obsolete after 2 years because of the software. It’s a computer, you can update the OS almost indefinitely.

I think it’s not even intentional, or not as much as claimed, but a consequence of the algorithmic bubble .
For example on Meta platforms I only get pro-palestinian content, I still haven’t seen an explicitly pro-israeli publication. But many people complain about pro-palestinian ban, so it leads me to a conclusion that it’s something else.
You took a photo of a wall, but there’s a little bit of grass showing in the corner. Off with your head!
Imo, it’s the human condition. Everyone is good at some things, average at most, bad at others.
Occasionally it happens that sone kids are great at academic achievement and they get labeled as “gifed” because that’s what’s superficially celebrated in our culture. I say superficially because after school it doesn’t matter much
I almost forgot about ASOIAF completely. I still remember when A Feast for Crows came out after a couple of years of waiting, and how eager I was to read it. And A Dance with Dragons was generally an unenjoyable mess for me, feels like a forced afterthought.
It’s been almost 20 years, time to give up GRRM. I’m sure you have a couple more unrealized ideas that took a backseat while you finished it.
Sounds like being provocative just for the sake of being provocative. Kinda makes sense, opera is far from popular as an art form. They have to make themselves known to the public somehow.
There’s a balance to be made between the flow of people and the seating capacity of trains.
Single level with many doors will load/unload quickly, however there’s barely any seating.
Two level maximizes seating at the expense of dwell times.
Nobody made a two level train with a focus on standing yet, so we don’t have a real world example. If it’s even possible because you need more headroom than usually available on double deckers
That said there are metro-like systems with double deckers. Paris and Sydney have already been mentioned. True, they are usually classified as suburban systems, but are very much used for city trips as well.
That’s their idea, pray for rain? How far they have fallen. Old Slavs knew that only human sacrifice helps bring rain
The least shitty thing you can get from Shein
I think allowed shipping destinations are defined product by product. At least in the opposite direction it’s true, when I look at the US Amazon, some products are available for shipping to EU, some are not.
cause we dumb, lol
Technically I’ve been on a couple of dates because friends convinced me that I have to try. I got panic attacks. It felt that I have to perform well to show others that I can do dating, but at the same time I didn’t really want to be there.
Thanks. Whenever I see such an absurd news about a politician from whichever country or political party, I need some kind of fact check
Are you sure this is not satirical? “The Daily Beast” sounds like something a satirical news site would call themselves.
I’m sure it will be tough for the mother in question, raising a child is not easy especially alone. But for many people who want children, it gives them a chance to achieve a huge goal in life. From the societal side, if the average birth rate is way below 2 per woman, the practice should be encouraged for purely practical reasons
And then it gives you the most generic answer how to run a docker build, that doesn’t actually address the problem
I don’t think I could ever have a crush on someone without meeting them in person.
Interesting or attractive I guess it’s possible, but having a crush requires direct interaction in physical reality
Some version of single transferable vote , along with a parliamentary government system.
I believe it’s a good starting point for an intelligent species to build on and develop further.
As to how would voting physically work? I guess dolphins can put things in a box. Better not to complicate on the first iteration.
