Got a handful of easy wins left for work that weren’t a big enough priority to do at any point else in the year, have to do my part of my yearly review, still have some decorating to do, and gifts to wrap… so more like “in the next two weeks” for me. Would kill to have a whole three weeks without shit to worry about.
On top of that, I personally set my default youtube app to be newpipe, so if I’m just casually browsing lemmy or elsewhere I can click a youtube link and figure out what it is, even watch it if I want, without it effecting my normal account and watch history.
If I like the video and want more like it, I’ll share to the Youtube (Revanced) app and finish it there.
Right?
Beyond that, I honestly associate feeling like you’re going to throw up a little with relief. Most of the time once you do, you’re good. Manually trigger your gag reflex and move on with shit. Even if it’s a serious “evacuate your entire stomach contents” level of multi-throwup, your stomach isn’t infinite.
In college I always named my router Skynet.
How am I supposed to find a cop to fuck on such short notice?
Don’t know why anyone would want to fart into a bong
I don’t know what to tell you beyond what I’ve already said.
I’m not denying that it’s a serious goddamn problem. I have acknowledged that in every single comment I’ve made about this. Please stop insisting that I’m saying otherwise.
Once again, I am only saying that despite the high numbers, it is not just some ever present part of life over here to the degree that every American, or even a majority, has experienced gun violence. Everyone from the outside seems to think that’s true, but it’s insanely, laughably not. The quite overwhelming majority of Americans have not experienced gun violence, and won’t within their lifetime.
Our population number is roughly equivalent to 3/4 of the entire European Union’s combined population. Any of our numbers relating to people are going to look high unless you bear that in mind.
Yeah, hence why I didn’t say anything to counter anything else, or that it was a good place to visit anytime soon.
Got any other mindblowing facts for us?
Perfectly valid, and thanks for not just jumping on the US bad dogpile and instead citing some stuff.
I’m just speaking up because I’ve seen a lot of people online from outside the US running with this idea that gun violence is like, a daily occurence that every US citizen deals with regularly, when that’s so fucking far from the reality.
Yeah, things are a powder keg over here lately and the accessibility of firearms doesn’t help, but I’ve met only one person in my almost 35 years of life who’s ever been held at gunpoint and they’re the only person I know who has ever been through any form of gun violence.
There’s plenty of reasons to avoid this place for a good long while unfortunately, but I feel like the gun danger has been overblown.
I have and do, likely more than you. Thanks for patronizing!
That doesn’t change my point, that the danger of gun violence is a problem, but is considerably made out to be worse than the reality by the media.
Like, we have states larger than some European countries. If you took the reporting on all the bad shit happening over the equivalent space/population amount in Europe it would be pretty fucking harrowing as well.
I’ve known multiple people fall into a life of constant anxiety due to overexposing themselves to the media. Convinced that every city was a fucking gun violence warzone. That horrible things were happening all the time. They didn’t know anyone who knew anyone who had experienced the things they were convinced were regular horrible occurences. And they knew more than one person (mutual friends) that worked and lived in the US city with the highest homicide rate at the time. None of those people had been even in the vicinity of gun violence.
I’ve been around for nearly 35 years, and I enjoy talking with people. I’ve met only one single person who had been a victim of gun violence, in that they were robbed at gunpoint while working nights at a gas station in a rough area.
There are fucking studies about this shit that are over 15 years old that show that exposure to news media back then caused people to ridiculously overestimate the frequency of crime (and especially violent crime). News has only become more emotionally charged since.
I’m not saying America is some amazing place. I’m just saying that the news would have you believe that almost everyone here has had a gun violence experience, or that visitng the US is unsafe because of gun violence, when that’s not the case.
How… how much gun violence do you think actually happens here?
There’s a lot by number, and that’s a serious fucking issue, but the US is also massive. It’s not a regular or frequent danger of normal life here.
Even those numbers are pumped up by the fact that suicide by gun is counted in the exact same “gun violence” statistics as gang violence, and the “school shootings” statistics include all from the “gun violence” stats that occur within a certain radius around, regardless of when it happened (summer break, middle of the night, etc) or if it was any danger to students.
News overfocuses on shit like that because it pulls eyes and clicks, and therefore ad revenue.
Again, it is a serious fucking problem, but it’s not the kind of thing you’re going to experience in daily life or as a tourist.
Depends on the officer you’re dealing with. There’s multiple stories, from before Trump ever took office, of people being detained for up to a day for saying this or refusing to grant access to their phone. I can only imagine it’s worse now.
It’s a shitposty protest against how this sub/community has been getting flooded with news and US politics.
Fuck off, we corn now.
What motherfucker is out here straining their creamed corn? LMAO
I mean for dealing with worm parasites in the field, given limited supplies and (I’m assuming) this being a pretty old manual, this isn’t too bad.
Basically instructions for forcing out the entire contents of your stomach or using something that is probably handy to kill them before they do too much damage to you.
Stupid sexy corn.
Out of the leather of his shoes, if I remember correctly.
Then you have to create a framework for evaluating the effect of the addition of each source into “positive” or “negative”. Good luck with that. They can’t even map input objects in the training data to their actual source correctly or consistently.
It’s absolutely possible, but pretty much anything that adds more overhead per each individual input in the training data is going to be too costly for any of them to try and pursue.
O(n) isn’t bad, but when your n is as absurdly big as the training corpuses these things use, that has big effects. And there’s no telling if it would actually only be an O(n) cost.
