It seems like that’s just what ended up in the valley. 40 Olympic swimming pools is only 100,000 m3, but the title says 3,5 million m3 fell in the rockslide.

You’re forgetting 20 countries.

North America doesn’t end at Mexico, it ends at Panama, and it also includes the Caribbean.

If people actually wore masks and got vaccinated we could have eradicated

Not really, there was no chance of us eradicating covid. Covid spreads well even among the masked and the vaccinated. We could only slow it down.

but now it’s like the flu where it changes to quickly to manage

It was like that from the start, there were multiple competing strains of covid right from when it was first discovered since it had already been spreading for at least 2 months at that point and was all over the world.

Covid was always going to become endemic.

or half a mil for a 1500 sq ft house?

Oh shit, that’s a great price, where can I get that?

Fuck, in my city it’s a million to get 1500 square feet, and not in a great area (I am converting CAD to USD, so closer to 1.3 million CAD for us)

never could emotionally open or connect to my male friends

My bros and I are very emotionally open with each other. We’ve had sit-downs where we listen to each other and help each other through problems, hug each other when we cry.

Sure, I’m not going to do that with someone I just met 5 minutes ago, but once we know each other a bit we are very supportive and open.

All the Ken’s care about are Patriarchy, horses, and mini-fridges, because they were given no rights or ideas of their own before Ken went to the real world, and he was only there for a few hours.

It’s not a critique of men in general.

Tavarin,
@Tavarin@lemmy.ca avatar

Some of the men were, others were shown to be normal. They really only showed a handful of real world men anyway, and Ken got all his inspiration from a few corporate suits (and honestly, a lot of male suits do act like that).

This would have been maybe edgy or interesting 20 years ago

Having been a teenager approximately 20 years ago, no this wouldn’t. We partied and went out, and played video games and surfed the net back then too.

mainly because the majority of wacky medical mysteries came from actual doctors

Same with Scrubs. What makes Scrubs a lot more accurate is most of the times doctors aren’t dealing with crazy medical mysteries.

I like 4:3 aspect ratio, gives video a better sense of height. Grand Budapest Hotel looked amazing, and it’s mostly in 4:3.

3:2 is my favourite aspect ratio though, shame moves and TV never adopted it.

Nope, there are different types of camel, not all of them have canines, but some do. Also females have smaller ones than males.

Just do an image search of camel teeth and you’ll find lots with large fighting canines.

The movie also isn’t even Boyz Drool, it’s a critique of radicalization that can occur to aimless men, and ends with the message that equality is preferred over a matriarchy or patriarchy.

I’ve set up multiple Windows 11 machines for work with no internet connection, and zero need to use a command line. There’s a create local account prompt on the account set-up page you can just click, and set up an offline account.

Why do people keep lying about this? It’s the fourth time today I’ve seen someone parrot that lie about Windows 11.

Tavarin,
@Tavarin@lemmy.ca avatar

Then people missed the local account button. I’ve installed Win 11 on 5 machines or so with no internet, and never once had to use a command prompt, or any funny business.

The comps at work are all on Windows Home so far as I know, we’re a small lab and just get cheap home computers. Local accounts were no issue. Not sure what you mean by AD.

Tavarin,
@Tavarin@lemmy.ca avatar

I did it about a month ago, you can still find it without the command prompt. The computers are lab computers and don’t connect to the internet at all, and not once have I not had a local account option, and I’ve never entered the command prompt.

Tavarin,

What was wrong with the owlbear? Owlbears are authentic to DnD.

Tavarin,

Haven’t played a druid either, but just checked the Player’s Handbook, and the Owlbear is above the combat rating that a Druid can Wild Shape into as well. But hey, it’s cool so i give it a pass.

Yes, I’ve set up several work computers without internet. You can make a local account on set-up.

You don’t need internet to install windows, I’ve done it with no network several times at work. Also all those prompts are defaulted to “no”, so you can click through quite fast.

They managed to go faulty in a free standing lamp without a shade, just completely open, so I don’t think heat is an issue; something in the wiring must be messing with them.

I have used some halogens, but I haven’t found many I like the light of. Might try some others to see how they look.

Pitbull info is your source? Yeah, that’s not going to be biased at all.

The first link is to a paper where the authors only identified the breed in 45b out of 256 dog attacks, and they concluded breed had nothing to do with the attack? Bullshit, they didn’t know the breed 80% of the time, so they could not make that conclusion. Plus abusive and neglectful owners only accounted for 20% of dog attacks, so most attacks are not a result of bad owners.

The second link is to a paper out of Ireland that doesn’t include any data about pitbulls, the legislated breeds include German shepherds and rottweilers, but no pitbulls. yet the website is using that paper to defend pitbulls? Absolute bullshit, since they aren’t in the paper.

Their third link is to their own website, that horribly misuses the data and statistics, and draws false conclusions, so it’s complete bullshit.

Must I go on? That website is just a giant crock of shit designed to fool people.

Here’s some data for you:

en.wikipedia.org/…/List_of_fatal_dog_attacks_in_t…

Actual dog attacks, and the vast majority are pitbulls. It has nothing to do with race, pitbulls are responsible for the vast majority of fatal dog attacks. That’s the facts.

The people I know that have been bitten by dogs, all pits. And all owned by white people.

Stop trying to tie this to racism, it isn’t a dogwhistle. Pitbulls are the most dangerous type of dog there is.

Tavarin,
@Tavarin@lemmy.ca avatar

Nope, pitbulls are a violent and dangerous breed. Labradors vastly outnumber them, yet never kill anyone. And there’s plenty of shitty Labrador owners out there.

Breeds do matter, and shit breeds make for shit dogs.

Tavarin,
@Tavarin@lemmy.ca avatar

but it emphatically does not hold more authority or validity than an in-depth study from the American Veterinary Association

When a study fails to identify the breed for the vast majority of attacks, then states breed has nothing to do with the attacks, it is an absolute failure of peer review. Also do you not realize journal editors barely read the papers, they get peer reviewers to do it, and shit does get through (source: I’ve edited journals and published and reviewed dozens of papers).

But let’s dive into the other actual sources.

Source 1, no breed identification = not applicable.

Source 2, once again does not include any pitbulls, so does not apply at all. The website is absolutely idiotic to include it. As for pitbull bites being worse, for all bites that required hospital intervention, 50% were by pitbulls, so yeah worse than other breeds:

www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5682160/

here’s another paper showing pitbulls cause more damage with their bites than most breeds, only matched by German Shepherds in severity:

www.ingentaconnect.com/content/wk/prs/…/art00076

Source 3, data only goes up to 1998, and the vast majority of fatalities from a known breed are still caused by pitbulls.

Source 4, breed identification, not applicable given pits are mixes.

Source 5, same as source 4.

Source 6, abstract claims they saw similar aggression between breeds, but the data suggests otherwise. Where 59% of golden retrievers showed no aggression, only 35% of pitbulls showed no aggression. And where only 1.4 percent of retrievers showed significant aggression, 14 percent of pitbulls showed it. So pitbulls are actually more aggressive than golden retrievers. The authors bend over backwards to claim it’s because the owners are more stressed, so the animals get stressed, instead of acknowledging the data shows pits are actually more aggressive. Seems it was written by pit apologists, and not by unbiased observers.

Source 7, is a study from the UK, where pitbulls are banned, and does not include any data on pitbulls. So as with source 2, it should not be on the site.

Source 8, includes zero data on pitbulls, but does show bigger dogs have stronger bites. So not exactly in pitbulls favour there.

Source 9, just a summary of how bites are measured, no mention of pitbulls.

Source 10, makes no mention of breeds. Breed specific legislation does not mean that breed can’t be found in a region, just that it doesn’t reduce bites. Also ticketing works to reduce dog bites.

Source 11, dog population and ownership rate was not in any way mentioned. Bites may have gone up simply because there are more dogs being owned during that period. Without that data this paper is useless (and this data was likely intentionally left out to sell a specific narrative).

Source 12, doesn’t include pitbulls, so again fails to act in their defense in any way.

So nope, your, and this websites bias, are causing you to massively misread papers and misinterpret their results.
