The article mentions an upgradable battery

Are they always there? Looks like they are getting ready to hang a curtain around it before painting it, or some other type of maintenance.

Also, the time scale is practically infinite as well. So infinity in (at least) 4 dimensions leaves a lot of room for empty space

Basically, if a percentage goes up 10 percentage points, it is just an addition. “His approval rating jumped 10 percentage points from 24% to 34%.” There are 10 percentage points between those numbers.

If a value increased by 10%, it went up by 10% of its previous value. “The price of eggs increased by 10% from $9.00 to $9.90” the original value gets multiplied by 1.1

They aren’t talking about percentages in the original tweet, so this doesn’t really apply, but I think this vagueness confuses people so I prefer to be more specific than just “up 10%”

It’s also caused by vague wording. “Up 10%” can mean both: “up by 10 percentage points” and “a 10 percent increase”

I know that I’d only ever use it to mean “a ten percent increase” but colloquially, it can mean either. In a work email, I would make sure to specify which I mean.

I mostly agree with you, however, I think it’s still good to point out to people that resources and help do exist and that there is no shame in using them. I know plenty of people who qualify for food stamps (or have in the past) and refuse to get them due to stigma. I’ve heard people with no food say they can’t go to a food bank because “that food is for people who are worse off than me” even though they are skipping meals and starving.

Directly pointing out “if you need help and help exists, use it” is important and helps destigmatize those options imo

Also, this was published October of 21. Have there been any updates or improvements?

“All” is all content on the fediverse, across all instances with which your home instance is federated. It will be similar for all instances, because most are federated with the big instances and those tend to have more posts and interaction.

If you only want to see the feed of communities on your local instance, you can just browse your “Local” feed.

I mean, simple file should already be a thing, and the IRS would prefer it be easier for everyone to file. But h&r block and turbotax have lobbied heavily against it because they’d lose money with easier filing. One way to make things more streamlined and efficient would be to get rid of middle men and focus on making internal systems better.

But this administration wants the internal systems to be broken and needlessly complex so that they can outsource it to their preferred middle men so that they all make a lot more money.

I think it’s from “The Founder” about the guy who turned McDonald’s into a national chain.

What if you fire the current federal workers, hire them at SpeceX (for less pay, less job security, and less benefits) and then charge the government a higher price for the contract?

Also, they can probably just reduce the hours needed to become certified.

Finally got my first full clear this morning, and I’ve gotten 2 more since then. I’ve now gotten all of the achievements and I just completed a 2 stamp game!

It’s very possible to defeat the dragon. I can do it pretty regularly after a day of heavy playing. Getting the achievements is tougher. And I still haven’t gotten a clean wipe yet (I’ve been 1 tile away twice though)

Thanks for posting this, I hadn’t seen it yet. Your title says ‘prior’ to the incident. The linked statement seems to just say they helped them get away safely and organized (and used an elementary school to do so?!) but I don’t think it indicates that they helped prepare for the event or anything like that. (Although, I wouldn’t be surprised if they did, it just doesn’t seem like this info backs that up)

That overpass is relatively new (or at least recently refurbished) and is part of the new entry into the GE aviation plant on the right side of your screenshot. Notice that it leads into Aviation Way. So, as it is the entrance into the plant, it probably actually is a named overpass.

And yes, the plant and that overpass are in Evendale.

This is a better example

Right. It’s basically Jesus (or whoever the story teller is from the other perspective) saying, “I know you all are racist. Stop it. Anyone can be a good person. Do better.”

A guess a slightly less charitable interpretation could be: ‘even this evil person can do good once in a while, why aren’t you?’ but aligning with a lot of the other parables I feel like it’s more than likely to be the first one.

That is kind of the point or the parable, right? But the parable wasn’t ‘othering’ them, it was showing how their background/race/religion/heritage isn’t what made them ‘good’ or ‘bad,’ it’s their actions that matter.

Society at the time already encouraged people to think of Samaritans as the other and to look down on them. The parable tells of an injured, vulnerable traveler in a time of need. Many Jews, members of high society, etc. (people normally thought of as 'good) walk by and ignore the man. A Samaritan passes by and offers aid. Of all the people who walked by, only the Samaritan is worthy of heaven. The moral is that anyone can be a good person by helping others…the kingdom of heaven is open to all, not just the Jews, and that your actions/the way you live your life is more important than what you call yourself, what tribe you belong to, who your parents are.

It’s one of the most basic messages in the Bible. It is clearly anti-racist. It promotes helping others above all else. And somehow modern Christians seem to miss the point completely.
