More often than not.
More often than not.
But that’s a Federal violation, so not the same thing at all.
None. My wife doesn’t know about tact, or the polite white lie or anything like that. She doesn’t have time for that bullshit. It’s one of her endearing qualities.
So is yours, ambiguous I mean.
In other words, I think you’re being ridiculously over-generous in your interpretation of ancient knowledge.
If it were in fact the case that the ancients had any real notion of Darwinian theory, I think they would have stated it in unequivocal terms, as they did with so many other Platonic and/or Aristotlean concepts.
Vaguely suggestive biblical lines interpreted as somehow suggesting an understanding of Darwinian theory strikes me as wishful thinking.
It’s partially but not entirely true. Having correct technique in your upper body matters too, as does accuracy, timing and the ability to create collisions.
All else being equal in terms of technical skill and leg strength, the guy with the bigger arms, fists as shoulders will have a stronger punch.
I had a ton of muscular atrophy in my right upper body due to a bulging disk in my neck --since corrected by surgery-- and I definitely noticed a huge diminution in my striking power, as did my regular sparring partners at the gym. So it definitely does matter.
I’m doing better now, but still not back to 100 percent and probably never will be. But that’s OK since I’m pretty old anyway.
That’s a very generous interpretation. I don’t think anyone can be blamed for not taking it seriously.
Most of what society tells us will make us feel happy and fulfilled in life is bullshit. Living a good life is primarily about your personal relationships. Things like social status and personal wealth are far less important.
you can always just call them by their first name or something else
Well I didn’t know you were called Dennis.
TBF we use metric wherever it’s needed as in science, engineering and the military. Imperial is more for everyday use and at least some of it, like feet vs meters, is more intuitive than metric since it’s basically the length of a grown man’s foot.
But again, wherever it actually matters, we do use metric.
Yeah but neither of those are by choice, they kind of got forced on us through tradition and regulatory capture.
This is actually a win for UAW. They want to unionize Tesla’s workers, so any anti-union activity on Elon’s part just gives them more ammunition with the NLRB, which has strict rules regarding what ownership is allowed to say publicly. It plays directly into their hands.
Also worth saying that the Biden NLRB is the most pro-union and labor-friendly in history.
No, this is a straight up win for UAW. They are trying to unionize Tesla’s workers, so any anti-union activity on Elon’s part only plays into their hands at the NLRB level.
This is a win for UAW though. They are trying to unionize Tesla’s workers and this behavior gives them an edge on the already labor-friendly NLRB by showing that Elon is actively anti-union.
If anyone thinks for a moment that union organizers don’t actively plan this kind of thing out, I can assure that they do. It’s part of their job description. My union is a lot smaller than UAW and our organizers get up to all kinds of subterfuge and shenanigans, so I can only imagine what the UAW people are doing.
And your point is…?
As a guy wholly descended from the peoples of the British Isles, I have a similar feeling, only in my case, it really is true that my people have trashed the world for their personal benefit.
Granted that the Irish side of my family was never entirely on board.
Same. There was some initial confusion when I first switched over to Lemmy that resulted in the creation of superfluous accounts. I am better now thank you.
Nothing to see here folks, just more of the China hoax on climate change.
Believe what I tell you, not what you see.
I won’t name any specific organizations, but the upshot is that you need to consume a variety of news sources from different countries and in different formats. It also pays to get into very specifically focused news organizations.
You would have a point were I simply speculating, but I’m not.
I am simply stating what the most well-informed and knowledgeable sources are saying.
You would know this if you had sanitized and healthy media consumption habits, but you obviously don’t.
Oh good, a pompous, nonsensical, deeply condescending, deliberately inflammatory, provincial and unhelpful comment! That’s just what we need, said no one, ever.
