Behind every successful person there is a shark

Is this based off an allegory?

I wanna know how much of that irrigation goes to corn and lawns/greens.

Seems to me to have always been a meme, even before the internet. I suspect it’s some amount of shit-talking going to an extreme, propaganda that has long just turned into an incomprehensible slush, or it’s adopted from other countries’ hate of france being treated as self-explanatory and just becoming a given.

Very rarely is the hate for france real, it’s pretty much just a joke anytime it’s been used while I’ve been in earshot.

The joke template is: Anyone: *says something disparaging about the french that is either very vague or about them being snobbish or quick to surrender*

Everyone else: *agrees without question or elaboration.*

I’m sure some portion of the US genuinely does view the French in a bad light, but I’ve yet to meet them.

I got Ritalin at around 11 or so. I’d get home from class on pass out for hours. Anecdotally, Being hyperfocused as a little kid can be extremely exhausting.

Algorism outpaced the abacus for a reason, and the slide rule outpaced algorism for a reason as well, but they’re all good skills to have some practice with. Have you ever had to do long division on an abacus? It ain’t pretty.

Buy used, compensate for the loss in power with algorithmic ingenuity, yadda yadda.

Also, if you can do the thing the app does on paper, you should just do it on paper and can save the computer for more difficult tasks like the old-timers that paved the way for our modern-day laziness.

Use the public library, also.

I dunno, man. Seems like all the convenient options at this point require you to capitulate to some asshole trying to jack up prices and deny payouts, and the only option now is to take high roads that are unpaved.

Literally from Malthus himself. He argued that due to overpopulation we’d cause mass famines, leading to war and societal collapse. And he solidly pointed blame on developing countries overbreeding and called for population control and oven culling in those nations. All arguments directly derive from his original argument.

Because that is the only solution to overpopulation, is population control and population culling. Population too big, either start killing people or forcing couples to not have children. That’s what you’re arguing for every time you agree with an overpopulation argument.

The new twists of ecological destruction are also highly misplaced. You’d have to pin the blame on the places which are reproducing the most, which is not the case. The damage we do with deep sea fishing, fish farms, and meat farms is not the fault of the poor nations overbreeding - the only groups we could blame for overpopulation right now.

In reality, we’d not be causing nearly as much damage to our environment if we weren’t using fossil fuels, weren’t transporting a massive portion of our goods from overseas, weren’t getting most of our meat from cows and other methane producers, weren’t fishing in such a way that destroys the seafloor, etc. There’s literally hundreds of ways I could list that we’re doing which if we switched to an alternative would solve large portion of our ecological damage.

We all are carrying out these unsustainable practices, regardless of population. Those practices are the problem, not overpopulation. We could still be producing enough food with sustainable methods that don’t destroy the world ecology.

Those numbers mean nothing to refute the overpopulation as a myth. The core premise of overpopulation is that humans can no longer produce enough food to sustain its people. So mammalian biomass doesn’t matter, total amount of farmable land doesn’t matter, and percent of avian life does not matter.

It’s never been a question of our impact on the environment. it’s a question of our impact on ourselves and how much past our means we are.

How much of our farmable land is currently being used to produce non-edible crops such as maize used for fuel additive or soy used for cosmetics? How much farmable land are we sabotaging with pollution which could be cleaned up? These are more pertinent questions for this, because if we could be making more food instead of maize or soy, we could still feed our people.

I’ve been using a Dvorak dactyl manuform for 2 years now. It’s quite an experience, but it’s surprisingly easy to get used to the manuform layout if you know touch typing, and Dvorak comes to you pretty quickly with a regular practice. I started using Dvorak comfortably after the first couple days, and am now at the same speed I usually am with my qwerty work keyboards.

The reply is stooping to the same level by personifying the octopi and applying human gender theory onto them, but it’s doing so specifically to show that this framing is misogynistic. It’s not as simple to clearly demonstrate this sexism if you stop personifying the octopi. Because there’s layers of misconstruance, it’s much simpler to address the layer you specifically have issue with rather than all layers at once.

It’s not really a simple issue to handle cleanly without becoming clunky with explanations. The same communication dilemma happens with STEM trying to address misinformation.

Thought you couldn’t get it up in zero G - and even If you could, we don’t actually know if the mechanisms needed to ejaculate would function in zero G.

Crocs are also good for wearing for 14 -18 hour shifts too, though, right?

Vyper from deadlock.

It’s more common than that. Take a look at XLibre videos on youtube and you’ll have a laundry list of linux youtubers describing it as ‘one brave man fighting back against government overreach and woke ideology in OSS’. Those are mostly the chuds being described above.
