these things like “may” and “could”, etc. Are difficult to measure. But let’s make up an example.

1 in 10 students gets distracted from an annoying loud sound outside the classroom every once in a while. And for about half of them it results in them not being able to follow math class properly.

That results in about 5% of students (half of 1 in 10) to get lower grades. Unfortunate, and unnecessary.

Some things are hard to measure down to the tiny detail and with 100% accuracy. That’s why we compare scores from classrooms with different noise levels over the year and use claims like “a% to b% of students”.

While not super precise, it still shows accurate results

oh that’s really nice

You never went to school or grocery shopping? I mean more than just the house you lived in

Sound like you may have grown up somewhere loud. Out here, 35db and below is normal. It’s that quiet outside at night, in most houses, in classrooms etc.

Obviously the occasional fart and talking student isn’t part of external noise pollution

Being direct is not rude, in my opinion. I don’t know why people need things so sugarcoated. Being direct, to me, is a sign of respect

A new season of Doctor Who, a new bunch of journalists complaining about change

It’s an edited image, but you are darn right. Proper communication is great

Ahh, that is indeed a critical detail on the implementation not quite clear right away. To be honest I don’t trust the end-to-end encryption most of these services offer. If I want perfect privacy, I’m sticking to self hosting stuff

ey there you go, you bothered to actually read. Your chats remain with your provider!

It’s not like you were expecting privacy while sending your content through other people’s platform, were you?

No, I actually read the current proposal. Maybe try that before regurgitating random stuff that matches your opinion

The proposal only does so under specific circumstances, which makes sense. Try to read more than three words before your respond

actually quite effective, when I uploaded a video from 1993, I got copyright striked cuz it contained a song from 2012

Reading it, it looks like it doesn’t require invasive oversight as long as the chat apps and app stores have sufficient detection and such.

really, that’s what such places already should have, considering how much profit they make off of our data

That sounds uncomfortable with foreskin

What’s a death grip?

I’d love something like this but for the degree of whether these are whole proteins or not

Not sure if this is international, but sewing machine oil is cheap and it lasts years for all sorts of things that need lubrication (not for organisms)

It seems like half the planet dislikes disabled people, really

It happens! You’re learning!

Belgium, Germany, Spain, The Netherlands, Sweden, Denmark, France to name a few. Also Mexico for some reason

Did you actually look or are you just upset?
