According to wikipedia the average resistance is 14 seconds.

Because branding exists.

Follow your heart anyone?

I’m just posting in representation of the many lurkers that have never remotedly considered a “productivity method”.

It’s not a habit I make a conscious effort from october to january every year.

I have some bad news about the status of the afterlife.

Oh I assure you Timmy once you grow up you’ll appreciate friction ;) ;)

Maybe I went to bad schools, maybe my country has a dysfunctional education system, but I suspect the matter is widespread because it’s way easier to teach factual information rather than dive into the nuances of how confident we are about our explanations.

Some reductive examples: Pluto is / is not a planet, wings work because the path air takes is longer than on the other side, the cause for this war was xyz, you can’t subtract below 0 (that’s at a very early age of course), this philosopher thought X.

Oh I guess a CRUCIAL one is how most teachers are horribly unfit to answer “Why should I care about this?”, but that’s beside the point, in a way.

You broke nothing, it just annoys me that if you don’t hit university they refuse to teach you the unconfortable truth on plenty of things and you come out of school with a biased idea that everything has been explained already (history, math, physics…).

So the generic “particles just rubs” in the texbooks were lies and they didn’t know shit?

What the fuck is going on in here?

Apprently many of those were actually trapped inside their houses and just hold on, until they passed out from the gas.

So they are not hugging because asleep but hugged because knowing they were dying.

source: some recent documentary about these stuff, but I don’t trust myself enough.

Death being the most boring shit I can possibly imagine is pretty high on the list.

I though he was some kind of “ally”, like a white guy that jumped the fence and joined the Native cause or raised by natives.

I also thought it was basically Jack Sparrow 2.0

It still works.

You entertained me, because of the context. If you were able to draw it and contextualize it maybe setting it in a well known fictional universe, mixing it with themes of the wonder of a coming of age, the machination of the industry, the generational gap and a sense of rythm in the way the narration is paced and represented, I would probably find it brilliant.

It is not the only point when it comes to adopting technologies, when it comes to maximizing privacy, yes maximizing privacy is tautologically the only point.

I think you are wrong is all I can realistically come up with.

You don’t need a punchline and an author has no duty. I would also argue plenty of stuff from Monty Python (and we are referencing ancient classical stuff by the way) have no punchline and make the lack of a punchline part of the comical experience.

Just look at this thing, there’s a stern father reprimending Charlie saying “IT IS WONDERFUL AND YOU ARE GOING”. Granpa on the brick of death is staring into the void filled with the dream of visiting the turnip factory!

You must laugh GODDAMNIT!

Because it makes the point for a more solid technology as far as privacy is concerned?

I don’t know what to tell you, if Monty were to do this it’d be dragged longer, the stern granpa would be histerically yelling and beating Charlie the whole way through and 8 minutes into the sketch an oompa loompa would walk in a suit and reference a line from 6 sketches before.

But I guess everybody truly is different and that’s ok, I guess. Maybe.
