I’ve never modded before but I’d be happy to try if you all still need help

I like your optimism best to look on the bright side and all— curious what do you mean by fabless? Do they not require as complex facilities because they’re a larger process or something? Or for some other reason?

To be fair I could have range with the hella expensive batteries, considering that weight isn’t a consideration (truck made out of steel) you might consider including a basic two speed transmission to keep the motor rpm more in its efficiency sweet spot for highway vs city driving def cool project considered doing something like that with a large boat style car. Plus (and this might just be my justification) if you build it and battery technology progresses it would be a simple matter to swap out the batteries and increase range while keeping the rest of the stuff (modulo maybe charge control) the same

Why mock them? Our quotidian musings are seldom unique. When an individual arrives at a realization on their own, should we not celebrate it? Is it not our collective duty to foster and encourage critical thinking whenever the opportunity arises?

Sure, here's the revised version of your message:

I think the students should definitely be compensated.

However, in this case, it seems like this was some sort of partnership in which the company sponsored the research. As a current engineering undergrad, I believe this success will translate into some really good job offers after university.

Secondly, given that it’s expected to be adapted by other products, while it doesn’t explicitly state what the patent is for, we can expect that the technology will be used by other devices, so it’s not just that single company that will benefit.

Thirdly, I certainly don’t see why the university would benefit directly, as generally published academic writings are meant to be available for public use (except from the perspective of the evil publishing companies).

So while I’m with you in spirit, and given the vagaries of the article, we should find the positives when negatives are lacking.

Never really been single; I’ve been with my now husband since I was 15 (now 23). So I dunno goals from back then were nebulous, but generally revolved around becoming rich so that I could figure out what I actually wanted to do with my life without closing too many doors.

Back then I think I imagined college as more of a growth experience since I thought I would be living in dorms; but living at my parents in law’s house has been good too since I’ve learned a lot from them in terms of finances and they’ve taken me camping and backpacking a lot which is something I’ve always wanted to do.

At the end of the day I have someone that I love and who loves me and that’s all that matters. You might have to compromise more I guess as long as your mostly aligned you learn that the little things don’t matter too much. I’m happy I’m out from under my parents control (they sucked) which is nice too.

The second “the hills have eyes” movie. I was 11 when I watched it and it scared the crap out of me.

That would be infinitely preferable, hopefully the congressional aid package helps, and in the medium term the elections don’t fuck things up

Hmm I can’t decide if this is a joke or if I’m just very privileged in the internet department

Well it eventually becomes difficult in the long term. I doubt the sanctions would be resolved any time soon but at a certain point unless your willing to go to war— which if we weren’t willing to supply probably won’t happen— you should eventually normalize relations once everyone who was involved in the war is dead.

Mayflowers ->mayflower, a ship that landed with European settlers in North America

For fucks sake I hope your joking x.x

Get the cheap house then go out and do things experiences are worth their weight in gold. Plus if the other large house is in the burbs as many expensive ones are it will be hard to walk anywhere anyway so just invite people over and when you pay it off you can make it a cheap air bnb if you want.

hadn’t heard of that but seems cool will have to give it a watch!

What the fuck what the fuck what the fuck

I remember back in 2013 I picked up the full expansion set at a thrift store for $4 it was the best summer of middle school by far— got the werewolf mod working and went around finding out who was essential to the plot by killing them and then reverting the saves— good times

Can it be running some unix derivative?

Thank you for the information! It was not my intent to echo any such refrain. If you don’t mind, would you point me to some good survey papers which might expand my understanding of the topic? (physiology and human phenotypes?) May not be the right terminology for apparent race but I’ll lean on your expertise to interpret my meaning.

(I should preface this with the fact that I only really skimmed the aamc article you linked)

I think we have a serious bias problem in medicine. However, the right answer might be to fund studies that debunk the racist claims pervading the education system, rather than relying solely on stricter policies.

It seems to me that we want individualized medicine. Discounting race, different people may respond differently to various treatments; for example, I have really long tooth roots. Therefore, we should develop tests to identify these differences and tailor treatment accordingly. I understand the fear of research that could possibly establish differences in treatment across racial lines due to historical context. However, I would tentatively suggest that if one truly believes race is an ineffective descriptor for such distinctions, then one should expect that studies would more likely aid than hinder the effort to address racial disparities in medical treatment and outcomes.

I see what you’re saying. I will not speak of the American decision to drop the atomic bomb as I feel there are a mess of competing interests and parties involved, and I don’t know what to believe, ie: avoiding the death toll of invasion, showing the soviets the power of the atomic bomb, ending the war before the soviets could aid and therefore influence the aftermath of an invasion, etc. However for the sake of argument let’s say that it was done in a utilitarian fashion to reduce the overall death toll. If this is the case then I think we can say it was justified, while also acknowledging the horror of it.

To your second point, I think it is good to differentiate between the people and the government. The government should apologize full stop. However for those interviewed in the article, especially for those who were kids at the time, I imagine the horror of the bomb is a lot closer to them, also given they were coming out of movie about said bombs production.

Yet, I don’t know if there exists a general consensus in the Japanese population about the atrocities committed by their military during the war. I would imagine they know some of it given that Japan is a westernized country with the free press, yet often times past wrongs are left out of public school curriculum. Especially when like in the case of the Unit 731 the United States was very interested in their results initially.
