  • It’s almost as if the generation that taught us to “decide with your heart”, “do what you love”, “you can be everything you dream of”, etc.etc. has suddenly decided to focus and rule the world by irrelevant talking points instead of staying true to their own beliefs and teaching.

    I hope that whatever happens in the next decade at the dying breath of that generation will not set the precedent for following inhabitants of this planet. I, being gen-x, am doing as much as I can to enable people to younger than me to have better opportunities than I ever had. (Union stuff.)

    The difference being that I acknowledge that younger people are more capable. My parents generation never understood that. They still cling to the belief that age equals wisdom. Maybe their parents taught them that. There is some truth to it, but he cutting point is a lot lower than they believe. The peak of capability is probably closer to 25 than 80…

    Edit. Anyway. The world depends on the American election. Mostly because the world needs USA to be successful in order to maintain a stable balance in world politics. The last Trump period was basically what fucked it up in the first place and I have no expectations of it being any better at a second term, on the contrary.

    Please vote for Biden. Sure, he’s old (please attend to primaries next time…) and Hillary was too, but Trump is still the most senile of them all. I get it. It was funny to vote in some jackass to stir shit up, but that’s not really what happened. All he achieved was to play golf and let radical idiots run the place down…

    It’s not even about the talking points. He spits in every direction, so it doesn’t even matter. He will not fulfill any of the most modest expectations of any of the talking points whether or not you agree with them. He’s going to play golf and let random asslickers run the place, again. That’s not democracy.








  • Yes, sure it can. Mashed/blended spaghetti bolognese or lasagna are available as baby food.

    Baby food products are basically just ordinary food blended and packed in smaller convenient portions. Simply look at the package to see what it contains.

    Cat and dog foods are completely different kinds of food, which is often made from animal biproducts and not suitable for human consumption.

    I’ve never seen sticky ash. I’ve seen completely beige and brown nicotine on walls, but never sticky.

    This is more likely due to cooking. If the cooking hood/extractor doesn’t work right or they just haven’t cleaned in a while, the fumes from cooking will cover everything in a thick layer of sticky fat, which is difficult to get rid of with normal cleaning products.

    Let’s have a look.

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irrational_number

    In mathematics, the irrational numbers (in- + rational) are all the real numbers that are not rational numbers. That is, irrational numbers cannot be expressed as the ratio of two integers. When the ratio of lengths of two line segments is an irrational number, the line segments are also described as being incommensurable, meaning that they share no “measure” in common, that is, there is no length (“the measure”), no matter how short, that could be used to express the lengths of both of the two given segments as integer multiples of itself.

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_mechanics

    Quantum systems have bound states that are quantized to discrete values of energy, momentum, angular momentum, and other quantities, in contrast to classical systems where these quantities can be measured continuously.

    The conclusion is wrong, i agree. That’s the joke of the meme.

    (Keep down voting if it matters to you. I’m only trying to explain a joke. The top post is in agreement with my statement.)

    The definition of irrational numbers is that they are the real numbers that are not rationel. So we need to look at the definition of real numbers. A real number is a number that can be used to measure a continuous one dimensional quantity.

    Quantum physics says that reality is not continuous. Particles make “discrete” jumps instead of moving continuously. So irrational numbers can’t exist.
