I think what they meant is if you receive that raise capped or uncapped. Some places have set wage increases based on years worked until a certain ceiling.
So if you have this annual increase and that capped increase at the same time, you might only beat it because of the additional capped increase. That would mean, at some point, your increase in wages will not catch up with inflation anymore
That reminds me so much of Felix the Bunny. It is so adorable
Yep, I am not entirely sure why English translation chose to go latin, but Ego also is just Latin for I/Ich, which is what Freud called the other two
It’s the term for the primal urges, and instincts I believe, in Freudian psychology. In German it is “das Es” which would translate to “the It”. More I cannot really explain
Doing some mental math, it should be about the same feeling as getting hit by 3kg from about 1 meter high.
1J=1N 1N=100g1m 30J=30N=3000g1m
Why would they? They get the money. I feel like that system is just prime corruption/malpractice and leads to crap like this.
It’s for profit all the way through
While that’s true, there’s also the “Works on my machine” effect.
It might’ve been less obstructive on their pc than on op’s
The way I interpret the comment is that they are saying “If you would eat normally, you couldn’t be that thin.”
It’s a reference to the fact that energy cannot be destroyed, only transformed into a different form.
Basically, catholic church has confessions. Y’know, those booths with the priest and the confessor?
Luther didn’t like that, and a myriad of other things, and decide to make it known. This, more or less, caused Protestantism
Federated means that any instance that is federated with them receives their content and can bee seen on that instance.
Defederated means they are not federated anymore, thus blocking both users and content.
It’s usually done to combat content you don’t want on your instance
Calling oneself Empress or Emperor usually does imply that, I guess
I’d almost agree. Steam is great with it’s return policy, but only really by comparison. The 14 days is definitely plenty of time, but 2h is not a lot for quite a few, and especially the expensive, games.
Who the hell is Empress? O.o
IMO, it’s often not even “war bad” but “fighting bad”. Thus wanting the defender not to defend because that would be just as bad as attacking.
I consider myself a pacifist, so I prefer peaceful and diplomatic ways before going to war. But if you are attacked, you have the right, if not the duty, to defend yourself and your citizens.
Edit: changed citizen to cititens
Don’t have the Fold but the Flip 3. I’d say it is pretty much as resistant as any other phone I had. If not more so because the main screen in protected when folded
Scammers evolve to find new prey. While the phone scams and the different types of phishing might still work, I am quite that’s not where most of the money is now.
We’ve seen kickstarter, bitcoin, mlm scams and what not. There’s enough out there that have not been properly identified, too.
Could I get some more context? Seems like an interesting rabbit-hole to alice-about in
It’s a joke about the bat being upside down.
Duckling got themselves a helium balloon and a, probaly air filled, balloon for their bat friend. As balloons from our perspective always go up, it needs to go down for the bat to be in the perspective.
It’s a cute gesture and, imo, highlights inclusion by accommodation
The Artist’s intent/message is based on a symbol that can be interpreted two ways, yes. But it is a massive oversimplification for the sake of validating opinions that are plainly wrong.
The Artist’s point can only be conveyed by creating a situation where there is no context, so neither opinion can be validated. This is inapplicable in any way IRL because there is always context that will validate a specific opinion with facts. The comment just highlights that this situation is contrived and couldn’t, or shouldn’t, happen in such a way.
It warns of taking Data out of context to suit a specific narrative.
I hardly think it is necessary to be an expert in Near-East conflict or politics in order to condemn what basically amounts to a terrorist attack.
Whether or not they should do something is a different issue all together. But dismissing criticism because they don’t provide an alternate solution to an intricate problem is hardly any more helpful. Israel has many more pathways to do this properly, one idea would be the ICJ.
You’re also falling into an overgeneralization fallacy. While Hezbollah is in the lebanese government, this doesn’t make all citizens of lebanon complicit. Hezbollah doesn’t represent all of Lebanon, neither do Hamas all of Palestine or Netanjahu all of Israel.
