I, too, have seen that Black Mirror episode.

They don’t even need government support. They just need AnAg based products to not be subsidized by our taxes, and they’d by ahead by a mile, price wise.

If it wasn’t historically relevant, why would they use the word on their page? Coed is relevant because women used to segregated or not be eligible for higher education at all. He’s taking a shot at women, not people of colour. He yearns for the times women “knew their place” (ugh, I feel gross just typing that) and didn’t seek education or a career.

In any case, that clip sounds to me like “coloured” only a tiny bit more than it sounds like “college”, which is to say, not much.

Cook and Wilson (2010b) subsequently trained two university students to a level superior to the chimpanzee.

The paper was titled “A Case Study: Are Graduate Students Really Smarter Than Chimpanzees?”

^^^Not ^^^really, ^^^though.

I don’t know how anyone could have possibly heard that as college. To me he quite obviously says “co-ed” which also happens to make more sense if you read their about page:

The Trailblazers of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated Zeta Phi Beta Sorority would be remiss not to pay homage to the first women who believed in the need for a new and different type of Greek-lettered organization and acted upon that need. To these women, Zeta was more than an organization – it was a movement. This belief system reflected, at its core, the desire to provide true Service, embrace Scholarship, set a standard for Sisterly Love, and define the noble concept of Finer Womanhood. This belief has sustained and encouraged Zetas worldwide to hold fast to the ideals initiated and developed by its earliest members.

The Founders of Zeta were strong, principled coeds who possessed a great deal of modesty, strength of character, and pride in academic achievement. They are a worthy foundation upon which to base our illustrious Sorority.

How does corpo PR still mess this sort of thing up so badly? Just issue a statement:

1. Acknowledge and take responsibility for your part of the incident. DO NOT try and shirk any responsibility.

2. Outline what you will do to prevent the problem for happening again.

3. Commit to providing progress updates on the resolution.

On issues of this magnitude, there’s simply no way to compensate everyone whose time and effort you’ve wasted. Don’t insult people with a meagre offering. Instead, commit those resources to a resolution, and simply ask for forgiveness.

And even if it was, that didn’t stop the Ruroni Kenshin remake from going ahead. :S

If the DNC wills it, you must run, or die.

I think boomers are also a bit more unconditionally supportive of the state of Israel for some reason as well. Perhaps (and this is my speculation) they were more propagandized than younger people whom have better access to global communication and cultural exchange, and were therefore more Arabophobic on average.

Also, Israel is the US’s military foothold in the middle east, so it’s there as power projection to the oil-rich countries in the vicinity.

Arms manufacturers bribe lobby politicians to send tax dollars to Israel via weapons shipments. It’s mostly about money.

As much as I dislike reddit, there’s still a ton of knowledge trapped there.

Technically it’s still accessible through meta search engines that use Google as well, but obviously that’s still kinda using Google.

I’ve been liking SearXNG so far, although it does require some configuration to make it more than just a front-end (and anonymizer) to Google, since that’s the default behavior. But that’s just a matter of going into the configuration and turning on whatever other search engines you want it to use.

Michiru fan art always reminds me of that one BNA review on YouTube…

Well yes, but it doesn’t differentiate between the bastards that stay in one place, and the ones that roam from station to station because even the other bastards can’t stand em.

They’re not wrong. Eating cats, dogs and bunnies is less speciesist than only eating typically farmed animals. Start eating humans too, and you’ve got yourself a morally consistent philosophy.

That’s what he wrote, I imagine.

Assholes are shitty people, and dicks fuck other people.

I don’t think that’s how that works.

If people predominantly bet for one side, the odds have to lower so the house still wins in either case. Basically, there has to be enough taken in on all other options to cover the payout of any winning option.

If there’s no selection bias in betting skill level of the players, then the betting odds should roughly reflect the actual probability. But if one side’s bet has no basis in reality, then the odds can get very skewed.

And in those cases, it’s not the oddsmakers that are wrong, it’s the betters. The house always wins.
