And we also have enough data on Covid to say that even as vaccinated it seems you really really don't want to get it, but not enough data to say what the exact risk is. |

| Topic | Charter schools are the answer! Defund public ed! Don't students uncomfortable! |
| realnifty1 01/21/22 1:08:52 PM #49 | I fail to see anything outlandish about the question, but of course the presentation is entirely without the context of the overall lesson. Depending on the complete context of the lesson plan this could go either way. But unto itself? Putting yourself into the mindset of people you almost certainly would disagree with (and this is why I think the corollary question from PoV of the Cherokee wouldn't be particularly useful) is a very important part of developing critical thinking adults. Trying to understand how and why a group can convince themselves into something bad/evil will allow them to better recognize when the same patterns are repeating in the world around them(think Jan 6 or election fraud). Is this the most effective way to accomplish, maybe not, but as said I can't find anything here so egregious as to clutch my pearls. |

| Topic | The Supreme Court has blocked Biden's mandate for large businesses |
| realnifty1 01/13/22 5:54:53 PM #76 | pure_temper posted... was anyone actually surprised? it was the common sense ruling based on the common sense laws of the land. Actually, just the opposite of everything you said. This ruling flies in the face of a swath of established rulings. Jacobson v. Massachusetts established that vaccine mandates are not inherently unconstitutional and there are many rulings and laws giving OSHA broad oversight to establish regulations as it sees fit in relation to worker safety. |

| Topic | Novak Djokovic receives COVID-19 vaccination exemption for Aus Open |
| realnifty1 01/04/22 1:46:48 PM #20 | Medical exemption is valid, it's just hard to say if it is really valid. The whole reason it is so important for everyone to get vaccinated is for the small percentage of immune-compromised and people with significant allergies that cannot get it. Religious exemptions are bullshit though and we should fire them (into the sun) |

All this shit talking about Crystal makes me want to pay to transfer my character to Primal since I wanna do raids and stuff eventually but I like my FC. Everyone's been helpful. I shoulda not listened to my friend when he picked the server for us lol. Did you use Duty Finder or Party Finder, Duty Finder for Extremes is considered a faux pas as most people are just trying to clear their dailies there. I haven't had too much trouble getting PUG Extremes during peak hours on Crystal, but putting up an unsync clear will usually get you a carry quickly. |

| realnifty1 11/30/21 3:08:45 PM #23 | It doesn't ruin the movie, but it can certainly ruin the experience. So a not so great movie that is relying on the experience is going to suffer a lot, while a great movie will only suffer a little. |
| Topic | Woman apparently got charged $11 for showing emotion during a medical procedure. |
| realnifty1 11/29/21 10:19:57 PM #23 | WingsOfGood posted... The fact that a question can be billed shows health insurance is just a scam that needs to die. Eh, I mean this is exactly what the service type is named; Fee for Service. You aren't paying anyone an hourly rate so why would you think anything they do wouldn't have a cost associated with it. If it took 5-10 minutes to give the exam and assess the results I don't see where $11 is a crazy amount. The real problem is lack of transparency mostly caused by the physicians themselves having zero clue what their actions would in turn relate to in cost to the patient. Fee for Service wouldn't be nearly as gnarly if we were single payer as there would only be a single fee schedule for a provider to figure out. |
| Topic | name a actor whos been more iconic roles then keanu reeves |
| realnifty1 11/29/21 12:23:29 PM #30 | Irony posted... Keanu Reeves only has 3 iconic roles and Constantine isn't one of them. I would give him 4, but Constantine is still not one. Ted "Theodore" Logan Johnny Utah Neo John Wick Not shabby, but certainly not near the person with the most iconic characters to their credit. |

| Topic | I still can't understand why people buy NFTs. |
| realnifty1 11/22/21 5:25:18 PM #4 | Not that NFT's aren't ridiculously overvalued, but it isn't a hard concept to imagine that some would have value. The idea of ownership is generally worth something even if you can't control publishing. You can Google the Mona Lisa and see it, it is still worth a bunch. you can download digital versions of games, but the original carts can command a premium. Yes, NFT's jump that bridge from a physical thing you can touch to something incorporeal, but that doesn't mean the idea of owning something renowned wouldn't have desirability even if the ownership doesn't grant anything beyond that. |
| Topic | BREAKING- Vaccine mandate suspended by OSHA after court ruling |
| realnifty1 11/18/21 11:54:45 AM #125 | Houston posted... Are people able to transmit COVID if they are vaccinated? This is real life, there are no perfect solutions and NEVER will be. We have to do what we can to mitigate risk and support the most good. |
| Topic | BREAKING- Vaccine mandate suspended by OSHA after court ruling |
| realnifty1 11/18/21 9:51:42 AM #115 | CyricZ posted... To be specific, this gives states that right. Explicitly you are correct, but broadly it answers an important question, is a vaccine mandate unconstitutional. And to that point it says no, vaccine mandates are not unconstitutional, your self autonomy can be regulated/legislated for the over-arching welfare of the masses The other outstanding question is then, does OSHA have the authority to do such a thing. I believe the answer is yes, but I will say that is most likely to be the hot button issue with the court as while OSHA has the broad and ill defined ability to issue these types of things, the court has often reversed them. Honestly I think the conservative movement is hoping to block and slow play this in hopes that everything clears up well enough that they can't easily say it would be a public safety necessity. Like I believe that pill that has been coming up in the news, if as effective as hoped, would greatly undercut the mandate. |

| Topic | BREAKING- Vaccine mandate suspended by OSHA after court ruling |
| realnifty1 11/17/21 8:54:05 PM #64 | It will still go through unless the Supreme Court wants to reverse precedent that has already outlined that vaccine mandates are Constitutional. Honestly given that, the courts issuing injunctions definitely seem to be doing that whole legislating from the bench thing some people hate. |
| Topic | New York puts Ben and Jerry's on notice for Israeli boycott. |
| realnifty1 11/17/21 8:49:15 AM #50 | SpiritSephiroth posted... Why does the US have such a hard on for Israel? This has baffled me for so long. Is it because the Israelis have influence in the higher levels of the US Government? That's the only reason I can think of. I don't remember the exacts of it anymore, but a lot of the evangelical support is out of some scripture about the Jewish return to the promised land being a pre-requisite for the end times. So they think Israel succeeding puts us one step closer to rapture. |
| Topic | Rittenhouse for his gun charges dropped. |
| realnifty1 11/15/21 11:57:03 PM #235 | Gobstoppers12 posted... Did you read 29.593? There is no personal attack, I just can't fix your lack of English comprehension. 948.60 clearly states that for a person under 18 to possess a rifle and not be violating the law they MUST be in compliance with 29.304 and 29.593. 29.304 refers to restrictions on people 16 and under, Rittenhouse is 17 and therefore compliant with it. 29.593 however refers to a person having certification of training completion that would allow them to obtain a hunting license (it is not about having an actual hunting license) and then goes into a list of what types of things qualify as that certification. To be compliant with 29.593 means to meet one of the criteria laid out there, failure to do so would mean that you are not compliant with this statute and therefore unable to legally posses a rifle if you are the age of 17. |
| Topic | Email literally said the interview is between 5-6 hours. wtf... |
| realnifty1 11/15/21 9:23:23 PM #47 | RchHomieQuanChi posted... True, but if this is supposed to be normal in that industry, he may not have a choice. I can see it looking weird from the outside, but for people in the industry already, full-time jobs are typically salary, often have 3 weeks or more PTO and work-time is flex so you could just make it up. the biggest set back is that you didn't get whatever work you might have been planning to do done, but financially, most won't even notice. |
| Topic | Rittenhouse for his gun charges dropped. |
| realnifty1 11/15/21 6:52:18 PM #217 | Gobstoppers12 posted... Yes, he is, because he's not hunting without authorization. You continue to be very bad at reading comprehension, may god have mercy on your soul. |
| Topic | Rittenhouse for his gun charges dropped. |
| realnifty1 11/15/21 4:10:41 PM #149 | Gobstoppers12 posted... Where in the statute does it say that one needs "appropriate certification to possess any rifle?" If I need to break down sentence structure I guess I must. (c) This section applies only to a person under 18 years of age who possesses or is armed with a rifle or a shotgun if the person is in violation of s. 941.28 or is not in compliance with ss. 29.304 and 29.593. This section applies only to an adult who transfers a firearm to a person under 18 years of age if the person under 18 years of age is not in compliance with ss. 29.304 and 29.593 or to an adult who is in violation of s. 941.28. First, let's drop the part about transferring a firearm, because that isn't relevant. (c) This section applies only to a person under 18 years of age who possesses or is armed with a rifle or a shotgun if the person is in violation of s. 941.28 or is not in compliance with ss. 29.304 and 29.593. Rittenhouse is 17 and I think we all agree he was in possession of a firearm, so lets clean that up (c) This section applies to Rittenhouse if Rittenhouse is in violation of s. 941.28 or is not in compliance with ss. 29.304 and 29.593. Let's further clarify the first part of that (c) Rittenhouse is in illegal possession of a dangerous weapon by a person under 18 if Rittenhouse is in violation of s. 941.28 or is not in compliance with ss. 29.304 and 29.593. Ok, now let's break down the component structure so we can talk about the conditions one at a time. (c) Rittenhouse is in illegal possession of a dangerous weapon by a person under 18 if Rittenhouse [is in violation of s. 941.28 [or is not in compliance with [ss. 29.304 and 29.593]]]. So we have nested conditional logic here if (A || !(B && C)) A = Are you in violation of 941.28 B= Are you in compliance with 29.304 C = Are you in compliance with 29.593 Is Rittenhouse in violation of 941.28? Does not appear so, this is false. Is Rittenhouse in compliance with 29.304? It appears to only apply to those 16 and younger, so he appears good. Is Rittenhouse in compliance with 29.593? I don't know. if (A || !(B && C)) if (false || !(true && ??) reduces to if (!(??)) or if (!(C)), therefore if Rittenhouse is not in compliance with29.593, then he is in violation of illegally possess a firearm. At no point does it have anything to do with him wanting to hunt, simply that as a person 17 years of age he must have the appropriate certifications in order to posses a rifle without it being illegal. But it is likely moot anyway, because they accept out of state certifications, but it would be nice if they covered that. |
| Topic | Email literally said the interview is between 5-6 hours. wtf... |
| realnifty1 11/15/21 3:46:53 PM #14 | I think ours is still about 5 hours, two 90 minute tech problems and then 2 one hour standard talk type interviews, one of which was typically lunch and was a sell meeting. |
| Topic | Rittenhouse for his gun charges dropped. |
| realnifty1 11/15/21 3:30:38 PM #135 | Gobstoppers12 posted... Are you implying that he's not in compliance with a hunting regulation while he's not hunting? Because that's irrelevant. I posted this flow chart somewhere for emphasis a little while ago, but I'll post it here since you need to see it: Where do you get the idea that he has to be hunting? At no place in the law does it mention anything to do with the intent on possession, only that a person 17 years of age must possess appropriate certification to possess any rifle. |
| Topic | Rittenhouse for his gun charges dropped. |
| realnifty1 11/15/21 3:10:19 PM #113 | Gobstoppers12 posted... You tried, but... Wow, you are really bad at reading comprehension, so I bolded the relevant part for you to go find a grammar book to help you with. However, digging further in it appears that out of state certification would qualify, so I would guess that he likely has the requisites in Indiana, but it would be nice if the reporting/judgement would be more clear about these things. (Although Wisconsin law is all kinds of wonky here, because it seems the linked statute is all related to Bow hunting and not Rifle hunting, so there is definitely a gap here) |
| Topic | Rittenhouse for his gun charges dropped. |
| realnifty1 11/15/21 1:20:38 PM #92 | So did they say that Rittenhouse has a license to hunt in Wisconsin? Because if not, then he is in not in compliance with https://docs.legis.wisconsin.gov/statutes/statutes/29/viii/593 which means he is still in violation of https://docs.legis.wisconsin.gov/statutes/statutes/948/60 even if it is not a short barrelled rifle. |

| realnifty1 11/02/21 1:57:36 PM #27 | monkmith posted... lol next you'll tell me that the less qualified aren't often put in positions over the far more qualified purely because they play golf with the boss. or maybe you'll call it networking skills? I mean if you can't grasp the difference between less qualified and unqualified I'm not sure where we would begin. To the topic, yes even larger firms are starting look more at boot camp graduates as part of their diversity hiring strategies to increase their ranks of under-served populations.Doing fist line screening I can tell you the pass rate is probably similar to a college grad, but they are much more likely to not even be able to kind of start the technical problem and fail out pretty much immediately. |
| Topic | The brain is not a computer, nor is it similar to one. |
| realnifty1 11/01/21 11:27:01 AM #11 | Doe posted... Computers and instructions need to be reproducible, eg if you give a command to one Ubuntu installation it should do the same in another computer even if every piece of hardware in that computer was made by different companies with different specifications. Nothing about this statement is true, reproducibility has nothing to do with being labeled a computer and then you go into talking about software which is something you run in a computer, not a computer itself. |

I mean that's what they are though, they are just a sugar paste with a bit of gelatin to thicken and confectioner glaze to seal it into a form. When fresh it should turn the consistency of frosting in your mouth, once they are paste date, well they are more like the dried out frosting bits where it will be more grainy as the parts have started to separate some. |
