Wiki says the barge didn’t cause the break in the levee, so it was entirely forseeable due to lack of maintenance

Per Google, “In a triple-blind study, the assignment is hidden not only from participants and experimenters, but also from the researchers analyzing the data.”

teaching kids they cannot trust authority

Which is still a valuable lesson

And a layman would be wrong

I’m actually a blast at parties, mostly because I don’t get into politics at a party unless some jackass is being loud with his bigotry.

I also know how to breathe fire, that’s usually a big hit

Which would be more true than most of Putin’s claims.

Nazi is stretching the word, but not really very much. Palestinians are Semites though, so anti-Semitic isn’t a stretch at all, it’s just blatantly correct

Don’t “now” that shit; the US has always treated striking workers like shit, which is the reason workers need to strike in the first place.

Sure, schools need improvement, but if you think electing the Conservatives is going to improve our schools, you’re a worse joke than the schools are

Low/no fat milk, which is not healthier but is marketed as being so, is quintessentially American

Well fuck, I’ve been out-pedanted.

an entire separate computer system we call a ‘console’

I get it; I even tend to like their consoles. The Switch is fantastic for what it is, when it came out (though admittedly: I am more likely to buy a Steam Deck than a Switch 2, at least as of now, not knowing the Switch 2’s specs).

But either sell an x86 build, or get over emulators. Or develop a taste for my favourite cocktail, if you can’t pick between the other two options

My guess was either regional or OS; I’m in Canada, running Android

100 decimeters

Why would you possibly choose that unit?
