I got the Logitech G305 in 2022 on the recommendation that it is good for gaming. No latency or consistency issues, and I still have it. There are probably newer ones or ones more specific to your needs that you can find, but I don’t regret the purchase.

Middle East is meaningless, officially. East of what, middle of where? It’s a cultural designation rather than one that is strictly defined by geography. In the Obama administration, we tended to refer to it as “The Middle East and North Africa.”

You should absolutely take it, and make sure you take advantage of the rail system over the weekends to check out new cities as well. And don’t just go to Western Europe. Go to Prague, go to Croatia, go to Bucharest. Talk to the advisor about your concerns.

I mean, we can go back. I am in my 30s, and I am in law school. It’s just that, our economy is a high-knowledge, skills-based service economy. Immature kids that don’t know anything are not very employable. In the US, recent high school graduates have a 20% unemployment rate. We just don’t have enough simple work available for all of the people who would prefer it. If you have the intellectual capacity to perform higher skilled work, you are better off doing it than trying to compete in the oversaturated, undercompensated low skill market.

Correct, your brain is not fully developed until 25-26. Many 18-20 year olds are still visibly children, and they aren’t mature enough to make decisions independently. Although 18 year olds have reached the age of legal responsibility for themselves in our country, we still implement restrictive laws on them, such as not being able to smoke, drink, or open a credit card without a cosigner. In the US, university functions like a rite of passage into adulthood. You enter as a child, and with guidance from older adults and development opportunities given to you, you exit as ready to function as a mature, employable adult.

Online degrees are fine for adults who are looking to change careers or achieve a promotion. 18-20 year olds would lose out on the necessary social and development opportunities of an in-person school.

I mean, it sounds like you’re seen as the bad guy because you’re harassing people over stuff they don’t want to talk to you about. You can’t just shove your opinion at people when they don’t want it.

Worst case scenario of moving at 20 is you literally just go right back where you started. Living in Canada will make you appreciate life in Australia.

I don’t think a purchase would help me be more productive. Besides, like, an academic success coach to hold me accountable.

In the United States, all crime is like that. Areas with no cash bond are better about it, but most places only let the people before trial out if they can afford to pay.

I just don’t understand why you think it needs to be “fully random” to be called random, when the output is in fact random. To me, when you can ask it the same question multiple times and receive different answers, it’s random and unreliable. You may argue it only changes its answer randomly 10% of the time or whatever- it’s still random. It doesn’t matter if it only answers incorrectly 10% of the time or 5% of the time. Every time the answer is unreliable, because sometimes it changes its answer for no reason.

it’s inherently random, though, because it is working with things that have meanings and it cannot understand what the meanings are.

personally I think it’s more accurate to call it either a “pattern identifier” or “random word generator”

You know you can still buy hats, right? Like any kind of hat you want. They’re still made. It’s just, we spend much less time outside, and outside is also much less dusty.

Yeah, facebook marketplace is the new craigslist. You can make a post on Craigslist if you want, but I wouldn’t bother.

Generally severe mental health issues. These kinds of attacks happen all over the world occasionally. Some people are born with broken brains. It’s just that, America refuses to identify and treat the mentally ill and give them guns instead.

The thing about rich people is that they don’t care about making responsible choices. $1000 is throwaway money to them when they have a $60,000 leased car and go to disney twice a year.

(1) Engages with his kids even when it’s boring or hard

(2) Stays on top of the child’s needs, eg. schooling, scheduling, and information

(3) Teaches by both example and correction, eg. treating others respectfully, waiting your turn, taking stewardship of your environment, responsibilities before play, etc.

(4) Makes time for his family. This one can be hard for dads, but your child gains a lot of emotional safety and stability just from being in the same room as you.

(5) In general, I think living your own life well is the key to being a good parent. Have your own interests and friends, take care of your physical and mental health. If you are not healthy and happy, your child is not going to be healthy and happy. Parental sacrifice is sometimes necessary but shouldn’t be the default.

I experienced this. I had a tooth infection, so it was a literal emergency. Took 3 days to get seen. When I was in agonizing pain. It was awful. As for getting the temp filling replaced with a permanent one, I think it took 6 weeks, and that was the earliest I could get it. I believe they recommended I get it fixed in two weeks. I did call a lot of dentists to get this timeline done.

This is mommy sunflower and baby sunflower. My mom would hold mommy sunflower, and I would hold baby sunflower. There’s a reason baby sunflower is a bit greyer. But hopefully in a few years, I will get to switch to mommy sunflower.
