- Comment on My Take Home Pay 5 days ago:
First off even for regular checkups I have to pay extra cuz a continues 1/5th of my pay isn’t enough
That is so wild. The US has the most expensive system in the world and often not that great service in return and somehow so many are convinced that their broken system is so much better… I guess that’s partly explained by an also broken education system. That’s something that always has been broken as far as I can remember, but now it’ll get sooooo much worse under Trump.
Plus I’m brown enough to live in fear of getting an accidental deportation parking ticket. Here, you hit the wrong car and they can apparently blast your front door. How does any of that even help me?
Aaaaaand another thing that’s getting sooooo much worse under Trump. And all paid for by your taxes.
I’ll emphasize though, the problem isn’t taxes, it’s a broken political system where 0.01% of the population pay for 50% or more of political campaigning and the people have allowed their representatives to create a system of government that fucks them over for reasons that appeal to their basest instincts.

My Take-Home in Germany is a little less than two thirds of my pay.
The difference is that I’m happy with it, because I get my moneys worth in return. Holy shit healthcare alone is just so goddamn cheap compared to what all my health issues would cost extra in the US.
Yes, rich assholes not paying their fair share is a problem over here too, but far less than in the US and honestly, for my personal happiness it’s far more important that I can see the positive impact my taxes have on me and in my community.
I think that’s the biggest difference, are taxes levied for mutual benefit or to funnel money to the mayors/governors/presidents daughters company and thus are a means to rob the populace? Over here it’s overwhelmingly for mutual benefit.

So…
(4/6)m >= (5/6)l m >= (5/4)l
Which means Marty’s pizza is one and a quarter the size of Luis’ pizza. We can comfortably just compare the area, since we can assume a flat disk with equal height for a pizza.
Assuming Luis’ pizza is a Domino’s Classic size of 25cm that’s an area of:
(25cm / 2)² * π = (625cm² / 4) * π = 490.874cm²
So Marty’s pizza should be at least 490.874cm² * 1.25 = 613.5925cm² for 4/6 of his to be greater or equal of 5/6 of Luis’, so:
sqrt(613.5925cm² / π) * 2 = 13,975426964cm * 2 = 27,950853929cm
Since Marty’s pizza is equal or greater, let’s go with 28cm diameter… which happens to match exactly a Domino’s Medium size.
That’s a very realistic scenario and the teacher is an absolute idiot for not understanding.

it helps that the glue is hot enough to also melt the glued materials a little bit
Which is why most glues are really agressive towards the surfaces they adhere. Better bonding if it melts a littke into each other and then hardens together.

Hyalinobatrachium dianae, also known as Diane’s bare-hearted glass frog or Kermit frog, is a species of Costa Rican glass frog in the family Centrolenidae
Due to the frog’s resemblance to Kermit, the discovery attracted a substantial amount of attention in popular media. Tweets and news articles comparing H. dianae to Kermit helped images of the frog go viral. The attention prompted Disney to release an official interview where Kermit talked about H. dianae, saying, for example, “Googly eyes run in our family.”.

The difference to shawarma is negligible, yes. We’re using the turkish word because they introduced it to Germany and most of Europe. The Döner Kebab in the german/berlin style has become something new compared to it’s roots and is a completely turko-german item that could not get more popular.
