  • that actually goes for every digit. when you add eight to a number n=10a+b=\overline{ab} (so a is in the tens digit and b is the ones digit), you can think of this as:

    1. add all of the eight to b
    2. if b is greater than 10 as a result, subtract 10 from b and add 1 to a

    what is 8-10? -2. so if you're shifting the tens digit (a) up by 1, the ones digit is shifting down by 2; if you're looking at the sum of digits, +1-2=-1.

    you can do similar things for every other digit added to a number. 8 is -2, 9 is -1, 7 is -3...

  • you've already raised it, just vaguely, which makes you even more unpopular than if you had specified

  • what are those concerns about equity programs and how often does what’s concerned about occur?

  • but people who are in the far east are much more likely to be affluent or have (local) state-sponsored means to help them see in the morning. plus we have mobile flashlights now

  • guardian says these rules allow only providing universal toilets “where there is insufficient space” for separate facilities

  • he is already doing the landlord enforcement, wage enforcement, and economic stuff he promised, though

  • ah, i misunderstood the rule lol. i somehow inserted a "not" and thought it prohibited "I feel" language

    i do agree it works better as a suggestion

  • sounds nice! still wonder what the negatives are tho

  • I wonder what exactly the situations violating C2 leads to are? I don't want to sound misleadingly confident.

  • “contained” sounds no different from imprisonment. We’ve tried to reinvent prison for centuries, and every time it’s resulted in recreating the university of crime. When you confine people to a structure kept away from normal society, it becomes a prison. (I never said you said prison was bad socialization. It’s simply what results with your proposal.)

    Material incentives are still valuable to psychopaths. In our current system, psychopaths oppress others because they learn that it’s the fastest way to gain material (as our system is designed), whereas in anarchism people just gift each other things.

    They’re normal people who like normal criminals predominantly can and do produce things valued by society; they just have no empathy. Of course restorative justice is not the right tool for them, but psychopaths still are about to learn what’s socially acceptable, even if they just get annoyed and give in because people aren’t giving them what they want instead of actually feeling what damage they’d cause.

    I didn’t downvote you. Please don’t convict me of crimes I didn’t commit.

  • it also has a bottom. it only triggers when revenue exceeds $69.8 million, so about 2.3 million copies

  • caveat: the game still has to sell at least 3M copies for the devs to get the $250M

  • the game has to sell at least 3M copies for the devs to get the $250M tho

  • It does mention:

    Earlier this year, publisher Krafton was accused of ignoring a court order by announcing to staff that the game was releasing in May, despite such a decision seemingly being the responsibility of the newly reinstated CEO Ted Gill.

    Gill is the first person named as part of "the three".

  • it wasn't XBOX before‽

  • what’s wrong with it? cis lesbians and gay men are fleeing texas too is the point of the title

    9% of transgender people report they’ve actually moved to a different state since November 2024, as have 5% of all LGBTQ people

  • yeah their point is that, as seen in the 2022 changes, the invasion of ukraine has made “maintain status quo forever” the most popular option—and made “status quo first and move towards independence” and “decide later” (which is leaving open the possibility of moving towards independence) trend downwards. nobody is disagreeing that unification has always been unpopular

    it’s worthy of note that 33.5% against 23% means the latter (status quo and move towards independence) is still a substantially popular opinion, but the person you’re replying to is correct that maintain status quo indefinitely has an incredible plurality
