But it’s classed as a motorcycle for fuel consumption requirements.

It usually is, but it’s a wide spectrum
- Comment on Good n dumb 6 days ago:
I’m overly sensitive here for sure, but Downs jokes are a kind of red line for me. It’s a losing battle, so I don’t speak up often when I see them.
The top part is funny without the downs joke, so I point this example out as just needless.
Btw I didn’t downvote you, don’t really feel like your comment is downvoted worthy.
People do pretend that downs people are eternally happy or something though. You can see it on Reddit (spits) threads whenever Downs comes up.

Can we stop pretending that downs people are all drooling smiley faces that can’t think at all?
There is a massive spectrum of capabilities and genetic complexities associated with it.
My sister has Downs and she was incredibly bright until she had a stroke as a child. There are Downs people who live mostly normal lives.
And also, yes, I’ve had some awesome times with my sister, and the look of joy on her face when she plays sports is one of the purest things on Earth. But there was also a lot of crying and yelling and fighting in my life caring for her. The highs are definitely high, and the lows are low.
It is a disability, but I hate how anything stupid is represented by Downs features.
The image/caption adds absolutely nothing to the top text.

Yes, I’m asking what the timeline of this change was, and another commenter posted an incredibly thorough answer with major human migration in Europe since the last ice age.
Another commenter liked to a source with this info.

Is anyone else mad that Alexander the first the Great came after Alexander the third the Great?
- Comment on Putting down roots 2 weeks ago:
This is a real question, I’m not trying to be racist, but why do they think Cheddar man’s skin tone would be that dark vs the lighter skin of modern Adrian Targett?
Was this something that came over after some migration?
Also how cool is it that this man’s maternal line has lived in the same small area for 11,000 years!

I wouldn’t push a woman down the stairs, but I could see myself writing an essay on why only dumb people can tolerate loud noises and that being loud should be made illegal.

I count see getting a beer with Alex the Just Kind of OK at Things.
Plus I could probably beat him at Catan

Didn’t know that until this thread

Not 100% trolling, just thinking it was kinda weird that Caesar is not ‘Caesar the Great’, even though his name was reused by Augustus and others.

I wanted to respond with a funny delta P crab video, but if you search delta P on YouTube now you get a ton of AI generated shit, including a video where a guy sticks his have in a hole and it comes out with 6 fingers.
They’re all like 2 months old.
I don’t know why Google did this to themselves.

Probability: well sure, this all works under the assumption of independence, but that’s not realistic in your scenario. Have you tried reading more measure theory and stochastic differential equations?
