There is no rule that the angles of a triangle add to 180 degrees. It only holds true in Euclidean geometry, which this is not.

That’s disappointing. I was quite enjoying it.

I don’t know which thread you’re reading, but you’re not summarizing this thread. You’re having difficulty following apparently. Here’s the original post:

“It’s funny just reading the headline… Experts warn that Chinese research is getting good? Like, is that a bad thing, or why do we have to be warned about it xD isn’t research in general just good” This was posted by lemmy user: @[email protected]

I am summarising this thread. This, from what you quoted:

warn that Chinese research is getting good? Like, is that a bad thing, or why do we have to be warned about it

is precisely what I was referring to with

• why is it bad that X country is doing better

You’re right on this part. Your quote there, and my quote in prior posts which match that, are the answer to that original poster.

…and then you proceeded to convey the same sentiment in the discussion:

the decline of USA’s science research indicates a problem in the USA. That is a problem, wouldn’t you agree?

The strawman I am talking to does not realise that they are being parochial and continues to argue instead of correcting their behaviour.

I don’t understand how you think you can argue this point, when the conversation is literally

• why is it bad that X country is doing better
• because USA is doing worse

And so the title assumes that the reader is from the US and would surely agree that this development is bad.

But you know this. You are arguing in bad faith.

“Washington” seems quite convinced of an imminent WWIII, and I’m guessing they intend to spend a lot of time in Asia.

It was posted to this international community. Regardless of the original intended audience, in this place the discussions should not assume nationality.

This sounds very interesting. I wouldn’t mind if you expanded on it.

Problem for the USA

People are upset at the lack of an episode 9 and 10 to finish the season, and while upset, one is more like to pick up on everything and anything else that could be interpreted as bad. Then one wants to find validation online. So the internet is rife with people upset at the series, picking it apart and complaining about all the details that can be complained about - things that few would have complained about had there been an episode 9 and 10 to resolve at least some of the now highly pressurised cliffhangers.

Edging is fun until you realise you’re actually not getting any.

I liked the season and enjoyed every episode, except in some sense the finale. It was good TV, but I felt stressed for most of its duration because they kept drawing it out and I couldn’t imagine how they would manage to resolve all the built-up tension in the time left. When there was about 10 minutes left I began to realise that all these things they were talking about on the screen were unlikely to materialise, but thought that maybe they’d focus it all on a spectacular scene in King’s Landing. All hope left me when it was down to 5.

I want to complain about how they spent their screen time, but I’d rather there were simply 2 more episodes because I enjoy the pace. Maybe they could have cut the mud fight.

Dubious is your opinion on any subject.

Whatever your reason for saying that is, there is nothing I could possibly reply with that would make you consider any perspective I have to offer. Yet, here I go.

Al menos hablas español? O sos un chanchito del hemisferio norte jugando a revolucionario?

I understand Spanish to some degree because I have family in Colombia, but I suck at using it. I could trivially use a translation tool to help me compose a witty response, but that would change nothing.

5 M expatriates were held out of the ellection. Even with put the tallies, the ellection is a complete farse…

The fact that this is besides the point is the very point I’m making: stay. the. fuck. out. of. other. countries’. internal. politics. It’s really quite simple. Unless you are an imperialist, obviously.

It’s a statement and an intervention. Doesn’t have to be literal military aggression to qualify as meddling.

So based on suspicion, potential indications, circumstantial evidence, and bloody hopes rooted in political bias and grabby hands it must be the moral duty of the Free West to liberate all these helpless brown people that just can’t figure out how to start a revolution.

Actually, IIRC they do know how to do revolutions. I think they’ll be ok without your fat fingers in their pie, mate.

Do you think them helpless peasants that require the intervention of big brother USA whenever there is trouble?

Even if Maduro’s government is using undemocratic means to maintain power, who the fuck are the US and EU to take stances on and decide what Venezuela needs?

Let the people of Venezuela decide for themselves. Fuck’s sake.

At the very least it doesn’t handle spoilers correctly

Where did

appear?

It may be of critical importance in some games that, no matter how low the framerate is, the player never misses an event due to skipped frames.

There are also games that are not real time even in their animations, and so there may be no benefit to skipping frames rather than just letting it run at whatever framerate. Slowed tick rate mostly feels weird if one has certain expectations for the passage of time.

Link is broken for me

Our jackdaw regular will tear up things around it and throw them around when it gets frustrated (such as when it wants a treat without having to put in any effort).

It could simply be bold and really frustrated.

Oops, my brain filtered too much information. My bad 😅
